Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop, Intel i7-10750H, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB, 15.6" Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, 16GB Dual-Channel DDR4, 512GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, RGB Keyboard, PH315-53-72XD

This laptop is amazing. I was skeptical spending so much on a laptop but I am so glad that I did. Its fast and snappy. The bloatware is super minimal. Usually first thing I do when I get a new laptop is uninstall and reinstall windows to get rid of all the extra crap they throw in but I didnt feel that need on this laptop. The extra programs are actually all pretty useful. The keyboard has a really nice feel to it and the track pad has all the gestures you would expect. I pinched zoom while typing this review to make it easier to see at a distance. The screen quality overall is FANTASTIC. IPS monitors are simply the best. No TN monitor in the world can compare. Performance is great and overall temps stay down fairly well (see cons for more info). It got great performance on World of Warcraft and I actually felt like I could raid without being hindered by laptop performance since I usually play on my desktop. It was able to run Cyberpunk on mid/high settings at around 40 FPS with ray tracing. Which is a lot for cyberpunk. 3090's were only pulling like 76 fps and my 2070 Super was able to get about 55fps with slightly higher settings and ray tracing. So 40 for a laptop with a 2060 is more than decent. Cyberpunk is probably a bad game to compare though really but I havent played very many AAA games on it honestly. I mostly got it for Warcraft and whatever else I felt like installing from steam. So far I have not ran into any real limitations from anything. The RGB keyboard really stands out and is very nice. I have got several compliments on the keyboard alone from people who dont game or have laptops like this. The Top lid feels just solid enough. you can easily open the lid without holding down the bottom portion of the laptop. Pros: -Fantastic Screen -Great performance -Track pad feels amazing -100% silent when not gaming -Useful built in applications -Customizable Bios Splash screen that supports GIF's -Dedicated Predator button to open the Predator sense app -Light up Logo on the back -Free Predator logo soft zip case protector -Very good speakers and can easily push more volume than you will need -Very low light bleed through on the bottom of the monitor. Can only see it during completely black screens and its barely there. -Charger is designed to swivel on the back middle of the base of the laptop. Makes the charger feel very secure due to it being an L shaped connection but also makes you feel secure that you are not going to break the port moving it around. It also has a nice "snap" when you plug it in that lets you know its fully seated correctly. (Doesnt require you to press anything to release it) CONS -High temps the first week. I ordered new paste thinking I was going to need to put some custom paste on but before I even got it the temps seemed to even themselves out. Runs average 85c under load with a high of 91c and a resting temp between 48c and 62c -Fairly Loud while gaming high end games -No compartment openings on the bottom for easy ram and storage upgrades (can still be upgraded) -Could have used 1 more USB port. It had 3 USB ports plus 1 USB-C port. -No SD card slot. (I get it.. its a gaming PC but still. I would have liked it) -Arrow keys take up a portion of the right shift buttons normal length. I believe this was done to save space but the shorter shift button means for the first couple of weeks I was hitting the Up Arrow instead of the shift. I got used to it though and I mostly use the left shift more than the right and that shift feels fine. If you have any feelings like you think you may like this laptop.. Just get it. I have got 2 friends to get the same laptop already and they both love it. Neither have had any issues with it either. I also have not had a single crash or blue screen or the slightest hiccup in performance on anything. This is ACER engineering at its finest.

If you're a semi to serious gamer that is in the need of a gaming laptop while also on a budget then look no further. The Predator Helios 300 is just right for you, the big brother to the Nitro5 and an amazing model. First off, I picked this laptop for two main reasons, first the Nvidia GeForce GTX 2060. I wanted a GPU more powerful than the 1660TI's that most laptops around the $800-$1000 range have. I wanted the laptop for VR diving though so the GPU was most important to me. Second was the RAM, I wanted the 16GB model, not an 8GB model specifically. For VR mainly but also for most bigger games I felt that 16GB was needed. The CPU is also nice its the newer i7-10750H, id have been okay with the 9th gen but I am definitely pleased with the 10th gen. It is a powerful machine that will get the job done and can run any game I've tried to play with no problems. It only comes with around 500GB to start with but the device has slots in the back that you can use to upgrade the storage level easily as well you can easily upgrade the RAM. The upgradability is an amazing plus that really helped sell me on this laptop. Some people have made complaints in reviews on amazon and on YouTube that I saw but to me none were any problem for me. Ill address the big one first, the battery life, if its not plugged and you're gaming id say you'll get around 3 hours before you need to plug it in. BUT THATS FAIR, this is a powerful machine acer tried to make as cheap as possible for us. The turbo and overclocking doesn't even work if its not plugged in so you'll probably always have it plugged in. Next thing I read in the reviews is the fans, and I'll admit they get pretty loud when in use they get pretty loud when on medium to full blast but again I see it as fair so the machine can cool itself. Plus you'll most likely have headphones on that will block out the sound. But overall the biggest and pretty much only flaw I have is I felt I needed to get a third party cooling pad cause I'm always worried about the CPU and GPU heat levels even if they stay in a safe-ish zone. There's a lot of little features I could go into about this machine, lots of little things that make it really nice but that could make this review enormous. This is a laptop I would use for gaming mainly, as in I don't think I would stream with this though I'd bet you could. But the biggest thing I wanted to get across in my review is that if you're trying to avoid the $1500 laptop zones this is the machine for you. The specs and the price make it the best choice for a dedicated gamer on a limited budget.

This is by far the best 1200.00 I've ever spent! This laptop is used mainly for school and gaming, it has a great screen, great solid build quality, and is super fast. I have been using this for a little over 5 months now and I'm loving it more every day. As far as the battery goes it is a gaming laptop, so don't expect much, mine is always plugged in anyway. The screen is bright and beautiful with no bleeding on the edges and is perfect for 1080p gaming. As far as temps go, I was get around 89-90 degrees c when playing AAA games, I bought a cooling pad and because the predator sucks air in from the bottom, it stays nice and cool now no matter what I'm playing. The RTX 2060 is a great GPU and the ray-tracing looks absolutely beautiful on games such as Control and Cyberpunk 2077. I would recommend getting an extra SSD and making sure to keep the inside and fans cleaned, otherwise temps will rise and it can get loud. All of the games that I play run great and I get consistently high FPS. Overall, I really would recommend this to people looking for a great value to cost machine. Just go buy it if you are on the fence, you will not regret it. I love this computer almost as much as my wife and kid, LOL!

Mi ero informato a lungo su laptop di questa fascia di prezzo (attualmente pagato 1450€) ed infine la mia scelta è stata un Acer Predator: AZZECCATA! PRO: arrivato in tempi più celeri del preventivato, appena apro il pacco scopro uno stupendo confezionamento (completo di custodia/borsetta per pc), all’accensione il jingle della casa produttrice quasi ti stordisce per la qualità sonora 😍 poi testato con qualche sound e video check con film e musica (passato a pieni voti). Ovviamente il test ufficiale avveniva facendo girare un gioco (Battlefield V): qualità video, sonora, fluidità dei fotogrammi... offrono una totale immersione. Prestazioni eccellenti a mio parere!! Le finiture laterali, la tastiera colorata, la possibilità di cambiare le impostazioni grafiche/video/giri al minuto delle ventole lo fanno diventare un bel prodotto! CONTRO (da aspettarseli): batteria 🔋 che si scarica in massimo 2/3h se usato per giocarci, quindi in linea; surriscaldamento 🔥 delle unità interne, se ci giochi a lungo preparati a sentire parecchio caldo 50/60^C, per questo motivo uso un pad per raffreddamento laptop. CONSIGLIATO👍🏼

This is a fantastic laptop I got this laptop at a very low price and its speed and performance is very high.

Un súper equipo y si lo usas para office vuelas. Fácil de configurar, lo único que no me gusto del sistema operativo (no el equipo) es que tienes que poner tus datos de cuenta de correo (no te permite omitirlo) y al iniciar el sistema en automático abre tu correo. También debo mencionar que el sistema viene en Inglés, así que, tendrías que modificar el idioma si lo requieres.

laptop is very good but the battery isnt great. not the sellers fault though. It runs Oculus Rift S wonderfully and the fan noise isnt very loud. When you are playing a a game you don't notice the fan anyway and will almost always be using headphones :) - Internet browsing, battery will last 2 hours. - Gaming, battery will last 30mins, but that comes with the territory i suppose. i bought a fan stand to go with it to keep it extra cool but it doesnt need one :)
