Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop | 12th Gen Intel i7-12700H | GeForce RTX 3060 GPU | 17.3 Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display | 16GB DDR5 | 512GB Gen 4 SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6E | PH317-56-70XJ

Used for general gaming. very happy with it until it just didnt turn on one day. replaced the cord and it still wouldnt turn on. so. yeah. rather put -out :(

After a couple of additions (2 gig Nvme and some ram) this little guy almost keeps up with my i9 10900k Alienware Aurora R11 with a 2080ti in it. I’ve been very impressed with the performance of this laptop especially for the price. I like to use it to power my Oculus Quest (use as a Rift) for PC games with Virtual Monitor and it’s done very well. It gets a little hot but I’m not friendly to it with the game settings and run everything wide open. Love having the portability of a laptop to game at work.

Overall great lalfor the money. Screen is ok but not great. Keyboard is nice with backlit keys is nice. Boot time is excellent. Graphics ccan handle very high end games easily. One huge problem, cant hear a damn thing from the speakers. I tried everything including sound boost software and obly way you can hear anything is if you stick your ear near the speakers or use headphones. Headphones sound is good. Speakers are garbage. Any smartphone speakers are lauder then those speakers. Overall good laptop for the price if you dont plan on listening to anything over the speakers.

This computer has had no issues running any games, been playing the new call of duty at about 80-90 fps without changing any graphics settings. Also have been using the computer for a ton of school work and havent noticed any issues. If it wasnt for the computer getting hot really easily (Its about 80 degrees when gaming), and being super loud with its fans, then I would give this computer 5 stars. The battery life is horrendous only about 3 hours, but I am always near a plug so it doesnt bother me. The only thing that I dont know why it occurs and it could be my internet, but every now and then videos/spotify wont work and I have to restart the computer. Again not big issues and things that dont bother me, but it could bother others.

It keeps disconnecting from Wifi and i work from home and that really annoying.

I did a lot of research, watching youtube videos, reading articles, trying to find the best gaming laptop for the $1,000. When I first saw the predator helios 300, I fell in love. I love the blue color and the sleek design of the laptop. I was amazed by the specs. Core i7 processor, GTX 1660ti, 16gb ram, 512gb ssd. I knew that this was the one.

Ive had this laptop for a week now, and while there is much to like, there is also a few things that make me wish I had bought a different machine.

Best gaming laptop. nice processor Intel Core I7-9750H.

Just amazingly fast with great display. Battery is just ok like many other laptops. Hope next release in 2021 will add couple more hours to the battery life.

This laptop was fantastic except it’s GPU died after only 2 years of use. Pathetic quality.
