This Predator literally changed my workflow. I use it every day - work, media, gaming and it handles everything with zero issues. The display is sharp, the keyboard feels great, and the system stays cool even during heavy use. Fast startup, fast loading, no lag anywhere. I didn’t expect this level of stability for the price. If you’re looking for something powerful and dependable, this is the one I’d recommend without hesitation.

Decent laptop and provides pretty much all services you'd need it for including heavy gaming. As with all gaming laptops it can get very hot.

Excellent Laptop. Enjoy the ability to game in between long hours of college classes. Being a semi-pro gamer, it has far superseded my expectations. I have had a few issues, but none worthy of noting here. After all, I enjoy this beast in and out of class.

This purchase was for my 17yo daughter. While not a huge gamer, she likes them to look and play well when she does. I wanted a powerful laptop for gaming as well as one that she could use for college next fall. I did not give it 5 stars for a couple reasons, for the power it has, I don’t think it has adequate cooling. It sits on a cooling dock with one 120mm and four 40mm fans and still is quite warm when playing Minecraft on max or Hogwarts Legacy. Other than the known annoyance of not being able to reduce the refresh rate on the internal screen so it uses less battery unplugged the only other display related issue is even though it is connected to the correct display port. It sometimes will not either recognize the external display which is a 34” curved Acer Nitro monitor when awaking from sleep or from powered off or it will not connect to the Nvidia GPU and it requires being unplugged and plugged in to connect the monitor to the GPU in the NVIDIA app. Graphics are amazing and when the Acer Nitro headset is connected with the 3.5mm cable they sound better than my Corsair Virtuoso Max or my old Logitec Pros. Both were 5 times the cost of the Acer headset. So in closing I would definitely recommend this laptop. I bought this Predator 16S for two main reasons, the great price and the 5070ti 12gb GPU. The i9 250x is a big plus as well but one reason it runs so warm! Anyway, I hope this helps!!

The only downside to this laptop is that you cannot change the refresh rate on the screen, but as someone who always has it plugged in, it is perfect for me. I use it everyday and have had no issues so far, the GPU can run any game no problem and the AI CPU is a very cool and new feature that I am still getting used to. The AI CPU has helped me a lot with online school and helps me get a better understanding of the topics I read. Overall I would definitely recommend this product to you as it is the best "bang for your buck" coming with a 5070ti and a H-275X.

Runs games really well. I had one crash due to video drivers though. Basically the way this laptop works is that it uses a weak GPU when you're just in windows idle. Then if it needs to start using the NVIDIA card it freezes the entire screen, stops that GPU, then starts the powerhouse. I think most modern day gaming laptops do this, not just the ASUS Predator. Not really a trend I'm a huge fan of but it did cause a crash for me and I had to hard reset the entire laptop. Besides the crash it ran every game great, the display is amazing. Probably the best display I've seen on a laptop. I actually liked the ASUS software that controls the laptop settings. It is a decent one for sure.

Really amazing laptop, I love it, display oled, pretty fast processor, GPU really good.

Light weight, mobile, power, comfortable, beautiful HDR OLED display. For less than two grand, its 100% worth the price. Though you should always bring a charger on you, gaming laptops battery don't last very long.

Screen is amazing, it is a very fast computer, but looks like the drivers does not work properly with the hardware. It has a tunderbolt / display port USB-C, in my set-up I need to constantly be unpluging and repluging to make it work properly. It is just unstable. Also the Bios options are very restrictive and the UI is very slow and not responsive.

Awesome oled display! Locked refresh rate of 240hz but plays gta 5 and fallout 4 well enough although it jas affected some fallout 4 gameplay, it gets real hot even with a cooling pad after multiple hours of gaming. I also keep having windows error issues where ive had to reinstall twice, Probably wouldnt buy it again.

Pretty good laptop, holds up well, I downloaded 7 AAA games at once and it took it like a champ. But if you get it get be careful, I dropped my bag and my laptop was in it and the siding cracked really easily. It is made out of plastic mainly but it’s light.

I bought this laptop, and this configuration is hard to find for under $2,000. The performance is excellent and offers great value for the price. The speakers and build quality are slightly cheaper, but aside from that, everything is superb. Overall, it’s definitely worth every penny for a poor computer Science student like me who is trying to run some simulation. :3

Battery life kinda short and it gets hot but rest is pretty good

I recently purchased a laptop from Best Buy, and I had such a great experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff were very welcoming and approachable. I wasn’t exactly sure which laptop would best fit my needs, but they patiently explained the differences between models, specs, and pricing without making me feel pressured. They really took the time to listen to what I needed the laptop for and gave honest recommendations. The checkout process was smooth and quick, and they even helped me set everything up and answered my questions before I left the store. I truly appreciated how knowledgeable, professional, and friendly everyone was.

Great for monster hunter wilds ultra settings! And ray tracing (Without the HD DLC pack from MHW) it needs to be plugged! I wouldnt use it for a main gamimg pc but its great when i go out of town for the week every other week!!

I need a portable gaming laptop, the price for what you get is phenomenally awesome, thank you ACER! Here are the Pros: 240 OLED not 165 (looks awesome!); Awesome CPU & GPU combo; 32GB RAM at 6400MHz; Slim profile with free sleeve bag; DTX Ultra speakers; Cool software with one touch settings; and the Price at this specs is unbeatable. Now the Cons: Heat- make sure you set the performance or gaming when gaming; 2nd M.2 needs slim heatsink for thermals or put thermal pads to aluminum back; very complicated included software- learning curve needed (just to turn off RGB keyboard, loading predator sound, and BIOS access) and USB-C charging not working- need to use bulky included charger. Overall this is the best laptop at $2K below!

Was looking for gaming laptop and came across this. Wasn’t sure but decided to make the purchase and I don’t regret it :3 Need to see it in person for sure!!

You can’t get a better specs for this prices , is oled, rtx5070 ti with 12gb, 32 gb ram , top Tier processor , the quality of the frame is awesome the only con it’s the sound quality (the worst I ever had ) but the rest of features are the best of you could buy for this price bonus, the laptop comes with a sleeve and really good packaging

Very capable, amazing screen, best value for 5070ti in laptop.

This laptop is very powerful, the previous laptop i used was a ryzen7 and 3050 and after the upgrade i see a huge spike in the performance. I used to get around 200fps while gaming on old laptop and this one gives me 1200fps in the same game.
