Acer Predator Helios 300 2019 review
The laptop is based on the 9th Gen Intel Core i7-9750H 6-core processor, which is said to be one of the best processors for gaming laptops that offers up to 4.5GHz clock speed and comes with a TDP of 45W, which makes a laptop powered by this CPU an efficient machine.
Design
The lid is the most partisan part, with the word “Predator” and a logo dripping gaming attitude. They’re pretty small, though, and some teal muscle lines moderate the look.The chassis itself is sturdy, with a metal lid and keyboard deck that adds a quality touch. The screen bezels and the underside are plastic, so you don’t get a super-premium, wraparound-metal feel, but it’s fine at this price. The dimensions are a similar compromise: The body measures 0.9 by 14.2 by 10 inches (HWD) and weighs 5.1 pounds. It’s not overly slim or too thick, nor is it particularly light or heavy, for a 15.6-inch-screened gamer.
Display and Audio
The display nestled between those bezels is average-quality. The resolution is 1080p/full HD (1,920 by 1,080 pixels), and it’s a high-refresh gaming panel. It features a 144Hz top refresh rate, as well as a 3ms response time with overdrive. These are gaming-focused features, and the 1080p native resolution is the right pick for the graphics chip.
The Acer Predator Helios 300 PH315-52 features a dual stereo speaker setup, which gets adequately loud.
Processor and Memory
Intel Core i7-9750H processor, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti graphics, 16GB of memory, and a 256GB boot SSD. The other 15-inch models include various combinations of component options, such as a 512GB SSDand/or GeForce RTX 2060 graphics. Acer also offers some 17-inch versions of this laptop, which can take up to a GeForce RTX 2070 and 32GB of memory.
Battery and Ports
Battery life proves to be this laptop’s Achilles’ heel. Just over three hours of runtime is the shortest in this group and among the shortest of any gaming laptop in this class we’ve tested lately. Being able to last just three hours off the charger.
The Helios 300 is well-equipped with ports, packing a little bit of everything and all of it practical. The left flank holds two USB 3.0 ports, an Ethernet jack, and a headset jack. The opposite side has another USB 3.0, a Type-C USB 3.1, a mini DisplayPort connection, and a full-size HDMI out.
