Acer - Predator Helios 18 Gaming Laptop - 18" 1920 x 1200 IPS 165Hz – Intel i7-13700HX – GeForce RTX 4060 - 16GB DDR5 – 1TB SSD - Abyssal Black

Wonderful laptop! Just wish I got it with a deal instead of full price… Laptop runs really well and never skips a beat when gaming on it. The CPU is based on desktop silicon! With 16 cores and 24 threads! 8GB of dedicated video memory is wonderful too. Perfect for games that need lots of rendering. The laptop does not overheat. I never got mine to overheat. The keyboard is a nice keyboard with the mini-LED per key lighting. The keys have a nice click to them. The construction of the laptop is really good. All metal with a plastic bottom cover. The laptop has no bending when holding it by a corner. Only problem with the metal is that it gives off the light gray metal color in scratches. The computer is very scratch resistant, but my watch band metal managed to start chipping paint away. Electrical tape hides it. The screen is a decent screen that offers 165hz refresh rate, which is plenty for someone who gamed on a tv all their life. The trackpad is nice too. Only complaint is that it can be difficult to use right click in games like Minecraft. Definitely get a mouse. That’s all!

I love this computer. I’m so happy I took my bf’s advice and switched to a computer to play fortnite. It handles fortnite very well, which is great because my other computer wasn’t doing very well. Lol. I love the keyboard with the pretty lights and how customizable the colors are. It has all 4 of my favorite colors on it now since I picked my own colors. It’s super easy to use. Very fast. I’m no longer the last person to get back to the lobby after a game. Lol. I’m usually first. Definitely worth the investment.

I’ve been using my big-screen gaming laptop for a few months now, and it has absolutely transformed my gaming experience. The expansive display offers incredible immersion, whether I’m exploring vast open worlds or engaging in fast-paced shooters. The colors are vibrant, and the refresh rate keeps up with even the most intense action without any stuttering or tearing. Performance-wise, this laptop handles everything I throw at it, from AAA games to multitasking with ease. The processor and GPU deliver smooth gameplay with minimal load times, and it runs even demanding games without a hitch. Plus, the cooling system does an impressive job, keeping the laptop from overheating even during long sessions. The keyboard and trackpad are comfortable and responsive, though I do prefer using an external mouse for gaming. Battery life could be better, but that’s expected with such a powerful machine—gaming laptops generally need to be plugged in for optimal performance. Overall, this laptop is a powerhouse and worth every penny for serious gamers who want desktop-level performance in a portable form. If you’re looking for a laptop that can truly immerse you in your games and handle anything you throw at it, this is the one to get.

This has been an excellent laptop thus far! Love the large screen and speed of the computer. It does everything I need it to do and more!

Receiving this package was a game-changer. The laptop feels like a robust desktop computer, with its large, clear display exceeding expectations for the price. The adjustable fans prevent overheating, allowing for prolonged use without interruptions. The speakers deliver impressively loud sound, and the variety of ports makes it versatile for connecting all kinds of devices. It also boasts excellent battery life and ample storage space, perfect for handling extensive downloads and long hours of productivity or entertainment. The only thing I recommend is that I can have access to buy cases that are not just the cotton ones for extra protection and smudge resistance. As of right now I haven’t found any.

Love this laptop for gaming on the go. Built like a tank, fast and great screen. But you will want it pluged in to AC. With all the power the battery life is not good at all

Love this laptop, My only issue is it's getting a little hot. Im guessing it's the battery. It is also a little bulky, but that is what you get with am 18". The graphics are great and the big screen is wonderful!

Very good laptop. I play it nearly everyday after work. It handles and performs as good as you can expect from a laptop. If you want something that can do anything get a pc with a tower so you can upgrade it to handle anything. But with this it does everything I want it to. Ranging from modded Minecraft to modded lethal company. It runs modded Starfield good aswell. I am very pleased with this.
