  • Best For A Budget Gamer
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
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. ... show more

  • Best Laptop I have ever used / owned.
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
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. ... show more

  • Great value! Awesome for gaming!
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
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! ... show more

  • Great laptop, Best price
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
Great performance for the price, of all the Acer Predator Helios 300 models in this price range I think this one is the best value. Fast SSD (NVMe which is faster than normal SSD), good video card (RTX 2060), and powerful processor, Intel Core i7-10750H 6-Core Processor (Up to 5.0 GHz), very good screen 144hz 3ms with ips, I love this laptop because it is low priced with very advanced hardware and also has a sleek look to it especially with blue led logo in the back of the laptop, I can play games at 100+ fps consistently and also allows Mr to take care of my work/daily needs, overall this computer is fulfilling what I wanted it to do and more I would recommend buying this if looking for a Low Priced but a high capacity laptop. Some downsides : 1-The fans are very loudly when I play games or programs, There are some ways to decrease fan speed by under volt CPU. 2-Battery life is not what I expected, but it's doing its job. I see this laptop is the best laptop for the year 2020 with the specifications that offering, at this price, highly recommended. ... show more

  • Great machine except it gets too hot during gaming
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
In June 2023, this machine will still run almost every game out there. There is one releasing in Sept which is above this one's specs (and will take 125 GB of hard drive space) but I have been pleased with my purchase. Update: I have had this machine for over a year now and it is still running great. With fans on it from just about every direction, I don't have problems with heating. It is just a powerful machine without enough space in a laptop case for the heat to dissipate efficiently without extra fans. I use it on a dedicated laptop desk and do not move it around except for cleaning. If it wasn't for the heat issue I would give this machine 5 stars. I've had it for 5 months now and played many games on it without issues other than it heating up. I do not like to run the machine over 80 deg C but have seen spikes to 86 at times under heavy load. During normal use, it runs in the high 40s and low 50s. The machine has great bang for the buck.... I have been able to lower the temp 10 to 15 deg C. by designing a cooler pad from an old metal cooling pad and adding a turbine fan at the rear/blowing upwards into the computer and I use a Opolar vent fan to pull the hot air out of one side. Eventually I will probably end up repasting the CPU/GPUs as I've seen several people say that often helps with the temp problem and I am familiar with building PCs. With 3 slots for hard drives, this machine gives opportunity for plenty of storage. It has 2 internal fans (1 for CPU and 1 for GPU) which are very loud when they kick up in speed. Otherwise, they are not bad when they are not under heavy load. Audio (speakers) is about the same as most laptops, nothing special but I usually wear headphones so that doesn't bother me. I use an external sound bar when I don't use headphones. I have noticed that Acer doesn't put sd card readers in many of their machines, which would be nice. I use a USB sd card reader and a powered USB hub so I have plenty of USB slots since most laptops just don't offer enough for my use. I have seen many people complain about the battery life on this computer. If you want something that runs for several hours on battery, this laptop isn't for you as it does run down quickly but I usually have mine plugged in when running so it doesn't bother me. This laptop is thicker than most people are used to in a laptop but this does not bother me. It is needed to give more space for cooling. The lit keyboard is nice, though I don't use the multi-colored option and just keep it on white (with the light blue in the WASD , arrow and PredatorSense keys , which is default. Over all, I am very pleased with this machine. ... show more

  • Great replacement for my gaming desktop PC
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
Reviewing model PH315-53-72XD. I'm in my 60s and have been PC gaming since the late 1980's owning mostly Dell and Acer desktops through the years. Five years ago I built a desktop gaming PC. This is my first laptop of any kind. I decided to replace my HUGE gaming desktop rig with a laptop so researched gaming laptops for about four months. I was about to go with a Lenovo Legion when I stumbled onto this Helios 300 on June 24 (2020). I thought the price ($1,199.99) had to be a mistake. Other systems with this video card, storage, and 10th gen i7 processor were running around $1500 minimum. A few more days of research and I started to find positive reviews that actually linked to this exact listing...so I bought it. For my purposes, this laptop is perfect. I wanted to simply replace my gaming desktop with something I could connect my monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers to, then, when necessary, disconnect and take somewhere. So far, a month later, I couldn't be happier. The other reviews are correct, the battery life is awful. I played Civilization VI (on highest graphic settings) and the battery went from 95% to 9% in about 48 minutes. But for me, that's not an issue as I always play plugged in. The battery does not deplete nearly as quickly if you're just surfing, emailing, etc., but if you're wanting a laptop that you can rarely plug in, this isn't it. I wanted to purchase an extra power cord so that I could leave my main power cable plugged in under my desk at home, then have a second that I could take with me. That proved to be a challenge as ACER does not sell one (at least at the time of this writing, one month after purchase). Even when chatting with Acer Sales, they were mystified that they were unable to find one. Furthermore, I could not find one for sale anywhere. A second chat session with Acer a week later turned me on to their accessory supplier, Capital Data. I contacted them and they were able to sell me an extra power kit...for $115 plus shipping. I paid it, as I really wanted the second power cable. But ouch. It took two weeks to arrive, but I now have my "travel cable". You've no doubt read about the features and specs, etc., so I'll just say this. The desktop PC I built five years ago was still fast and functional. But this laptop is noticeably faster and quieter. Yes, the fans kick in when gaming heavily, but the noise is still not as loud as my desktop was. I love the startup speed, keyboard, screen, etc. When I'm not using my connected monitor, this laptop screen is really crisp and bright. The software tools Acer provides are great. You can customize many aspects of your machine. The computer world changes fast so research is always a good idea, but for the price and time I purchased this, it was five stars. Have fun! ... show more

  • This is so POWERFULL and I love using this laptop!
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
I have never written a review on amazon before, this is how good this laptop is. I was able to pick this laptop up for just around $1,200. So far I've been using this laptop for 6 months and it has not slowed down or giving me any problems other than after using the headphone jack, the mic part of it doesn't work which does not bother me because I use a wireless Headset. The screen is really fast, sharp, and clear. I use the laptop for gaming, video editing, and photo editing and the colors are vibrant and very nice. If you are going to pick this up for gaming, It can run every game out their pretty much. I recently bought the new cyberpunk 2077 and despite what others have said about it, I didn't run into any major bugs or glitches with the game and the fps mostly stayed at 50 to 60 fps on average. Keep in mind that cyberpunk is a beast of a game and loaded with crazy graphics so I'm glad this machine could handle it no problem. Fortnite I have played and got up to just above 400 fps but my average is around 160-200 fps. Far cry 5 averages about 60 fps and is real smooth I got the new call of duty cold war and that runs anywhere between 60-100 fps. so no problems their at all. Now that laptop can get a little noisy because of the fans trying to cool down that machine when playing games but it's a gaming machine, it's gonna make a little noise. The speakers are actually pretty good in my opinion. The keyboard's not too bad, took me a little to get used to but it's great now. It's a beast of a laptop and I would highly recommend. ... show more

  • I'm going to be honest, I'm doing this for a free mouse pad. But this computer is awesome.
Capacity: 15.6 in IPS | 16GB RAM | 0.5TB SSD
I spent weeks researching computers to game on, considering almost every computer within the $900 - $1400 price range. And I am pleased to say that after many hours of researching and comparing, I have chosen this laptop. Not only does it have some of the greatest specs for the incredible price, but it is also intuitive and easy to use. The predator sense button on the keyboard allows you to monitor the fan speed, the memory usage, and the heat of the CPU, GPU, and system. For more control, it makes it easy to overclock the CPU, adjust fan speeds, and change the lighting of the keyboard. Outside of the specs, the computer looks mediocre. The icon on the back lights up when in use, which may look silly in public. The back seems to be made of metal, but I noticed that fingerprints show up everywhere, even after a couple days of use. The trackpad is hard plastic, which is fine most of the time, but warm fingers have a tendency to hop a little, which you can notice when you drag your fingers across any hard plastic surface. The computer weighs a little heavy, but it's not a big a deal as most claim it to be. You probably shouldn't take it on a backpacking trip through the mountains, but it's not a cinder block. This computer runs games really fast. All of the games I have played have hit max frame rates, even after I set all video settings to the max detail (which isn't a lot of games, because I spent all my money on the computer). There is a small backlight bleed on my computer's lower right, but I know that depends on the model. The video is excellent, to the point where I am playing games and randomly stop to think about how great it is. Anyways, I really enjoy this computer. Good luck to everyone on an ongoing hunt for a new one. ... show more
