Pros and cons

According to our laptop expert

You can play demanding games at 60 fps and stream your gameplay in 4K with the RTX 4070 video card, the i9 processor, and 32GB RAM.
On the 1TB SSD, you can install about 20 games of 45GB on average.
The 165Hz screen displays fast-moving images smoothly, which is useful for fast shooters.
Due to the large 18-inch size and the weight of 3.4kg, this laptop isn't as easy to take with you in your backpack or laptop bag.

Description

Step into a new gaming dimension with the Acer Predator Helios Neo (18 PHN18-71-91CY) 18-inch gaming laptop. This powerhouse has a 14th generation Intel Core i9 processor and 32GB DDR5 RAM.

Great laptop but doesn't work straight out of the box!

Super fast
Solidly built
Battery drains quickly. Less than 2 hours with just some internet browsing

When I first started things like the predator button and co-pilot button didn't work. For this I had to factory reset the laptop 2x, update everything and search and download drivers from different websites. After 2 days of searching and installing everything works as desired. It is super fast and with the predator software you can easily overclock your CPU and GPU. Laptop is recommended if you know something about computers but for most people who want something that works straight out of the box it is not recommended!

The computer is completely to your liking. I had already estimated the battery life. In retrospect I could have bought a size smaller. But it is nice as a second screen (I use an external screen in addition to this laptop). Overall, highly recommended.

Nice fast computer

fast
large screen with high resolution
keyboard layout

It is a nice machine, but before everything works as you want or are used to, it takes some searching and technical knowledge. This is partly due to Windows 11, where a lot is different than it was in the previous version(s). Now that everything is set up, I am generally happy with it. A few negative points: The first thing that stood out is the weight. I knew that it would be heavy at 3.4 kilos, but that is without the transformer which also weighs 1.2 kilos. Not something you can easily take with you. (for comparison my old 17" laptop was 2.9 kilos with a 0.3 kilo transformer. Then the power consumption. The description says on battery up to 6 hours. But during the first test, just a morning of writing in word, the battery was really empty after just 3 hours. The battery was really 100% charged and not the standard 80%. What takes a lot of getting used to is the slightly modified keyboard layout. The right Ctrl. has been replaced by the copilot key. The right shift has been made smaller to make room for normal large arrow keys. In order to get rid of the Predator key, the entire row NumLk / * - has been moved on the numeric keypad, the + has been halved and the zero has also been halved to make room for the arrow keys. This still results in a lot of wrong keystrokes for me. The large screen with the high resolution gives some compatibility problems with older software and external screens. It can all be set up fine, but it takes a while before that is correct for each program. functions. All in all I don't regret the purchase, but for how I use it I probably would have been better off buying something else.
