(External-mouse users can disable the touchpad by pressing Fn+F7.) Slightly stiff physical clicking action provides insurance against accidental presses. Moving down, the buttonless touchpad is appropriately sized for the 15.6-inch screen. A thicker border on the WASD and arrow-key clusters makes them appear brighter, highlighting this notebook's gaming focus. For gaming, the keys have a long enough throw to let your fingers know that they are fully pressed. The typing experience is satisfactory if not particularly engaging. The 240Hz high-refresh-rate screen of my review model has a silky-smooth picture for all types of gaming, especially esports. I also like that the lid can be opened one-handed, and that the touchpad borders and front edge of the chassis are diamond-cut for a little glitz. On the upside, it has good strength, exhibiting minimal lid and chassis flex. As I found while reviewing the 2020 edition, its chassis corners are sharp, and there are perceptible gaps where the metal sloping around its sides meets the plastic base. Positive and negative aspects of the Predator Helios 300's construction transcend price. Today's review unit (model PH315-53-78XB) hikes the GPU to an 8GB GeForce RTX 3070 and the screen's refresh rate to 240Hz, but oddly halves the storage to 512GB.

For that money, you get a six-core Intel Core i7-10750H processor, the 6GB GeForce RTX 3060, a 144Hz 1080p display, 16GB of memory, a 1TB solid-state drive, and Windows 10 Home. Similarly priced rivals tend to use more metal or special finishes the Alienware and HP are good examples, as are the all-metal Gigabyte Aero 15 and Razer Blade 15 Base Model.īy contrast, Acer's $1,349 starter model (designated PH315-53-70QE (Opens in a new window)) compares favorably with the mostly plastic machines competing at that tier, such as MSI's GF65 Thin and Dell's G5 15 SE. When it comes to build quality, the Predator Helios 300's partial aluminum design-the lid, palm rest, and keyboard deck-struggles to impress at our test unit's $1,699. (Opens in a new window) Read Our Razer Blade 15 Base Model Review There's no mistaking the Predator Helios 300 for anything but a gaming laptop, with its all-black chassis, angled lid corners, aggro rear cooling vents, and turquoise-backlit Predator logo on the lid. (Besides, the base model has twice the storage.) If you'd prefer something more portable with better battery life, Acer's 14-inch Predator Triton 300 SE is a top choice, but this year's Predator Helios 300 once again nabs an Editors' Choice award among midrange 15.6-inch gaming rigs. Everything we liked about the previous Predator Helios 300 applies to this one, as does our recommendation to stick with the base model: Its features and price make more sense at $1,349, and its RTX 3060 will perform almost as well as our test unit's RTX 3070.

The only difference is an upgrade to Nvidia's GeForce RTX 30 Series "Ampere" graphics, but that's an important change since it markedly improves gaming performance. Acer's 15.6-inch Predator Helios 300-at $1,699 as seen here, has gone up $200 from last year's model.
