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

Machine had a hardware issue and continuously blue-screened. Customer service was miserable and a giant waste of time.

I bought this laptop to be able to work remotely and also play call of duty world war II. I tried to make the best of the preloaded operating system with the stuff that was on there, but I did not like it. I downloaded the Windows 10 creation tool and put that on a USB. I booted to USB and did a clean install of Windows 10 home. Afterward I started utilizing this little beast to play call of duty. Let me tell you, I have never in my life seen a laptop get this hot! When I say hot I mean it will burn your freaking fingers! The panel center of the screen above the keyboard was so hot I could have literally fried a piece of meat on it! Im not kidding! Luckily for me I had a five fan laptop cooling device that I plug into my USB and was able to put it underneath my laptop which yielded impressive cooling to this machine. Let me tell you it is still hot! But not so hot that it would burn you now. I am very worried that the heat that is generated from this machine will make it die too soon. Otherwise I am averaging a hundred and sixty three frames per second on call of duty world war II, I do not have the settings to max on anything because I want performance more than I want beautiful pictures. I hope this review helps some of you and especially I hope this helps the people at Acer so that they can design some type of better cooling system for future gaming rigs at this price point.

When I first got this laptop it was everything I could have hoped for, the picture is beautiful, it runs games like a dream, and its pretty quiet. Now that Ive owned it for a couple years I can safely say it is a piece of junk.

It is really great for gaming and the screen display is just unreal! My cpu never gets over 85c and with the turbo mode on it stays around 65c. It runs games like squad, escape from tarkov, insurgency sandstorm very well

This laptop can do everything. Its only only for gaming. I use it a lot for video editing. though I upgraded the RAM to 16mb. This laptop is a beast. I LOVE it. If you are looking for a great laptop, look no further.... go for Acer Predator Helios 300. Thank you....

I bought this for one of my younger sisters a few months ago and shes loved it so far. It runs the games she wants and she can use it for coding, for her schoolwork, and other general usage too. Weve placed games against each other online and this is definitely quieter than my Alienware (Alien v. Predator--I couldnt help myself when looking for a laptop for her and saw that this one was good). That said, my alien has two power intakes for more intense gaming and its noticeable if Im doing a lot, so it has the advantage there.

Noticable Screen back light .Battery life is very poor 1 hour for light use 35 min for gaming if you use without plug in. Other than that its a perfect machine for the price.

I dont know where to start. This last issue, the audio has stopped working. They have customer service reps but they are not always able to help with functionality.

I ordered a helios predator 300 N came in everything looks fine but I take a glance at the number key and the whole key is poped out the keyboard...

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 :(
