Entry-Level vs Premium Gaming Laptop Comparison! 

Nitro is not from predator, it's from acer. So helios neo 16 is the entry level for predator.

​@@gadingprakasaand Predator is from Acer (like Alienware is from Dell).

@@rickgoethe Acer and Predator is a separate brand, Acer is the Parent Brand for Predator. Nitro is a product from Acer brand, while Helios Neo 16 is a product from Predator brand. That's why they called it Acer Nitro, not Predator Nitro.

@@gadingprakasabro from where the fuck did u get this type of Knowledge it is clearly written on their websites as Acer Predator Helios neo16/16 or Acer Nitro 5/16 Both are just Acer different series in the laptop segment. Its not Like Redmi/Xiomi or Oppo/Realme or Vivo/IQOO.

@@Bishal_Mondal666 i work on predator gaming indonesia as their digital marketing

Yep. I've had their gtx1650, 1060, 2060, and now 4060 models. They have improved their cooling drastically since 2018(use to overheat) and its become the best budget laptop on the market. I put in a 2tb samsung m.2 and replaced the ram with 32gb. Perfect for what I need with school and work. Its also nice having a 1440p screen for extra real estate

Thanks for Watching!

Basically the one with RGB is the fancier one, and the keyboard is a little larger

True

Just got it see my comments above, it is sold out now.

I bought it but exchanged it for the 4080. Thought the investment would be worth it since I heavy mod GTA

You can take a look at the MSI Summit E13 Evo www.tech360.tv/the-msi-summit-e13-flip-is-an-all-day-productivity-workhorse

I want the same answer. Let me know

I am writing this comment from a Neo16 with a i9-13900HX, 32GB of RAM, and the 4070. I have owned this laptop for 3 weeks and so far it has been very impressive. The build is very good for the price. The screen is excellent for gaming and watching content, even in bright areas, but the color accuracy isn't perfect if you are a photographer who wants to edit your photos to perfection (but most gaming laptops have this flaw). Compared to my gaming PC with a 3080Ti, this laptop is 88% (I actually did the math based on framerates in different games) as powerful as my gaming PC, which is way above my expectations given the thermal limitations of laptops. Everything is perfect, I only have four complaints: - There is a microSD card slot instead of a full SD slot, which is annoying if you're a photographer - There is no fingerprint scanner - The laptop comes with a bulky and heavy 330W charger, but it uses less than 280W under full load, so the extra capacity is useless - The battery lasts lest than 3 hours in eco mode using low screen brightness and only doing light tasks like watching RU-vid.

@@Ghosttts check my reply under his comment. I hope it helps.

One thing i forgot to add, the i9 is overpowered for this laptop. in most games the GPU will be at 99% while the CPU will be at 30%. If you can get this laptop with an i7 and a 4070 you wouldn't notice a difference.

​@@drbadzerthat's bottlenecking can u undervolt the cpu?

I am typing this from my Neo 16 with the 4070. It is 85% as powerful as my gaming PC with a 3080Ti, which is very very impressive. It made my gaming PC basically useless.

Very loud on turbo yes, but it is not needed most of the time. Going for a more balanced setting is completely fine while gaming and it doesn't get as loud.

I just bought it 3 days ago, what needs to be emphasized is that the build quality is good compared to other brands with the same specs but at a cheaper price, I got it for $ 1650 with 32 GB RAM

The Helios 16 is their flagship model, the Neo 16 is their slightly less premium model.

The i7 13700HX RTX 4050 laptop is good for music production because it has a powerful CPU. The high-end GPU is not necessary unless you do video editing. Look for at least 16GB RAM and fast storage like an SSD. Make sure it has enough ports for your music gear.

@@Terafied thanks bro 🤘🏻

Maybe on the performance mode your laptop doesnt use the RTX 4080, then the turbo use it

@@HannXCh. I got rid of the laptop I have a 4080 desktop now . Much much better

Sto valutando l’acquisto anch’io ma con la ram a 16gb. Ho visto un’offerta ora a 1729€, mentre l’Helios 16 è a 2049€ con le stesse identiche caratteristiche a parte il refresh rate che passa da 165 a 240. Non capisco questa differenza di prezzo avendo praticamente le stesse identiche caratteristiche. Anche la risoluzione del Neo la hanno implementata a 2560x1600 come l’Helios. Tu mi confermi che ti stai trovando bene con l’Helios Neo 16? Grazie se mi risponderai! 🇮🇹

@@alessandrodemartino8582 Mi trovo benissimo, anche la batteria non è malvagia a patto di non metterlo sotto pressione. Riesci a fare senza problemi 5 ore con uso ufficio/web. Ho valutato attentamente tutti e due i pc, purtroppo in italia non ci sono recensioni e ho dovuto prenderli entrambi per poi restituirne uno. L'unica differenza che ho notato sta nello chassis. Nel Neo manca la barra led posteriore ed è leggermente più ingombrante. Per il resto è lo stesso pc, non ho notato nemmeno differenze nella qualità del display che è ottimo. Per farti un esempio: possiedo anche un Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro con dynamic amoled 2x...ti garantisco che non ha nulla da invidiare, a parte i neri assoluti. Colori perfetti e luminosità maggiore, se non hai esigenze particolari a livello fotografico fidati che è una goduria con quella risoluzione e quel refresh che è già altissimo e non si vedono differenze con frequenze maggiori. Per quanto riguarda le prestazioni...un mostro, per andare oltre e notare differenze devi metterti in mano il doppio dei soldi e anche più, ma per incrementi del 15/20%, temperature permettendo. La gestione del calore è fenomenale, se metti la modalità turbo le ventole fanno un rumore infernale ma la cpu non va oltre i 72°, se lo metti in modalità silenzioso per uso basico le ventole restano spente per il 90% del tempo. Se hai altre domande chiedi pure.

@@GliamicidiSemolino Sei stato super esaustivo grazie mille. Mi puoi quindi anche confermare che pur se ACER scrive che la ram può essere ampliata fino a 32 tu l’hai portata a 64 giusto? Perché in questo caso direi che la differenza di prezzo la metto per maxare la ram! 😁

@@alessandrodemartino8582 vai tranquillo, ho due bachi della kingston e funzionano perfettamente. Mi sono preoccupato solo al primo avvio perchè ci ha messo un minuto per fare il post del bios, ma a quanto pare era normale. Calcola che mi sono costate circa 280€

@@alessandrodemartino8582 non trovo la risposta che ti avevo dato. comunque si confermo, ram kingston ddr5 circa 280 € per due banchi da 32gb

Hey I'm thinking about buying the same one.. it is about 1300$ at amazon uae How the laptops feels with u in gaming ? Do u notice any problems in tearms of heating or not getting enough power on the gpu or cpu? I hope u can answear me. Thanks

@@Naddeh7 Its a very good gaming PC. and yeah since it has plastic body it doesn't heat up that much+ the cooling and fans are really good. Up till now haven't had any issue with performance. Hope this helps. Thanks.

😂😂

I also had to return my Asus TUF unfortunately.

Lucky!

@@pho3nix- I got $1650 off with asurian too
