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

Overall great lalfor the money. Screen is ok but not great. Keyboard is nice with backlit keys is nice. Boot time is excellent. Graphics ccan handle very high end games easily. One huge problem, cant hear a damn thing from the speakers. I tried everything including sound boost software and obly way you can hear anything is if you stick your ear near the speakers or use headphones. Headphones sound is good. Speakers are garbage. Any smartphone speakers are lauder then those speakers. Overall good laptop for the price if you dont plan on listening to anything over the speakers.

500GB hd inadequate. Needed turbo mode to do VR, its just enough, but not enough to play games. Over priced at the time I bought it for what its made of. Ot enough memory, storage or processing. Its an easy pass, but heck its been almost 2 years,, it wasnt enough then, so why make the review? Moores law..should have been good enough..bottom line its just Amazons skewed ratings

My son loves it thanx!!

Since I do not often require the use of the sound system I will not deduct 1 STAR for a very lousy sound system!

This laptop is absolutely incredible! It runs pretty high end games at medium to high settings wonderful! The keyboard has different modes besides blue and can be customized which is not something I’d expect for the price here!!! I enjoy this laptop a ton. I’d definitely recommend it! I would recommend you wait for it to go on sale cause you can get it for cheaper.

I have had this laptop since july22 since the day I got it I have kept it on a 4 inch high cooling rack with all external peripheral monitor mouse etc. Well the fan quit working in the back and now have to wait 20+ days for a fix this is crazy and I cant just get a refund it has to be fixed this computer was my job so now Im out of work thanks acer

Within a few minutes of starting a game the laptop freezes and has to be manually restarted. Happens multiple times before I can actually play a game.

I have now purchased TWO of these laptops and neither worked. Screen flickering when not plugged in to the point its unusable. I have done trouble shooting but this is ridiculous for a computer I havent even gotten to use yet. Constantly logs me out when its not plugging in. Completely unusable. Screen flickers even when plugged in. I have done all the trouble shooting possible and the fact its due to a ERROR IN THE DESIGN due to the ram door is unacceptable for a computer that costs this much. DO NOT BUY. You can do better. Very disappointed.

I have always played real games on Xbox and never really wanted to play on the computer for real games. My husband bought me this and then I installed steam and got eso (elder scrolls online). The loafing screens, graphics, and just over all smoothness. Best laptop for gamers.
