Underrated channel with a truckload of great content.

Best Gaming Laptop Review Channel of 2019: Jarrod's Tech
🤩
Radha K. Ugo Definitely! Just found it a couple of months ago. No clickbait, stupid face thumbnails (a big relief today on TH-cam) and to the point!
Radha K. Ugo definitely bro, he did it so great
I want to thank you, for all your reviews and in-depth tests. You do a great work and deserve more followers.
From my point of view the best latpop is the best balanced in power, temperature, design and price. I think that the Acer helios 300, and the lenovo y540 are the real winners this year from this point of view. The only think that always hurt me is the fact that Acer rise the price of the Helios 300 in my country, and because of this, is not a big deal, but is still a great laptop.
He does what he loves, don't thank him, it makes him feel good to make videos, not to mention it gives the feeling of self worth and pays handsomely since all his vids are long
They rised the price of the y540 here as well, and it's not a good option in my country
Cheers! Yeah I agree, those two are good options, just comes down to price which varies a lot by region.
@@cyberpunk4915 what kind of ingrate logic is this. Just because someone is rewarded for doing things they love doesn't mean they don't deserve thanks, especially if you've found it helpful.
@@JarrodsTech Yeah, here in India, the Helios 300 with same specs is sold at around 1600 US$ (INR 114,000) but the MSI Alpha 15 is available at around 1000 US$ (INR 70,000).
Anyone who's buying a laptop soon needs to watch this. You've basically covered all of the important laptops from this year across all price points, and your in-depth reviews of each of them are sufficiently informative. Keep up the good work, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays :)
Thanks! Same to you!
Best laptop reviewer out there HANDS DOWN! Thanks for helping me decide on which one to buy for myself (I chose the Lenovo Legion Y540). And I gotta say it's such a steal for the money, very satisfied. Keep it going Jarrod 💪🏻
Thanks! That's great to hear!
I bought one yesterday for $789
Inquisitve m could u pls provide me the link....
Inquisitve m and bro how’s the battery backup if we only stream video....?
I really wanted to buy it on black Friday but unfortunately I was a bit late and it was sold out, hence I went with Hp pavilion 15
Best tech reviewer of 2019! Your format and thoroughness are commendable. Really glad I found your channel!
Cheers!
not just that but he responds and offers objective insight......on purchasing/investing on a laptop that we're all going to be spending a lot of our time with......he pairs QOL VS % of use........be it % of gaming......i primarily game and watch vids on the second screen with DP not many laptops have display port support on 1660ti or rtx. Let alone i have HDMI too for a tv or 3rd screen.....A huge plus for me....Some factors i never really considered until jarrod told me about multiple screen support, as something i personally would need to look into. In theory id probably be able to maxmize my wifi by putting a google tv/appletv/chrome cast on my tv.......so my laptop can maxmize the mb/s it can suck through the wifi straw. Vs streaming mb/s through the laptop directly......i mean its only really important for downloads.......not gaming or using discord.....i may have to consider this though......when further from the router......and the overall mb/s declines to 5mb/s at times.......id def want to have a cast/etc smart tv......vs hdmi streaming to my tv while gaming/in discord.etc. Esp if im streaming live sports or etc live tv........smh.......bc trying to transition off of cable into pure streaming in 2020 and unlimited data with ISP........imean.......30mb/s is pretty meh......but my laptop only gets 12 mb/s from my current setup from wifi......until i spend upwards of 500$ on a new modem+router combo......i wish i had 50mb/s at least but.......ik somepeople only got 50 megabit......or less.......i mean 1000megabit would be ideal for a larger household esp if cable is out of the picture and all that bs ass hd/4k streaming is going down.....Im trying to get in on the "unlimited" bc i want to be grandfathered in.......incase they ever stop offering it.....heart goes out to australia for their ISP problems.......and now bc of the fires prayers up. If it affects his channel for the time being......i wont be crying for content. There are definitely more important things in life. But jarrod really does help contribute to our QOL improvement process.
I just want to say the you’re the Best Performance laptop reviewer on TH-cam. You’re the sole reason I bought two laptops this year one for myself and one for my sibling. Keep up the great work, your reviews matter.
Edit: Can’t wait for your 2020 reviews. Sponsors should see how much influence you’ve had on our wallets this year.
Thanks!
Hey man hope your holidays are great this year. Appreciate all the effort in 2019 giving us all the important info every video. Wish nothing but more success for your channel in 2020!
Thanks, you too!
I didn't miss a single video throughout the year. I love your content. Keep it going!
Thanks for watching!
I remember months ago asking you questions about the Helios 300 wich you answered, I have been using mine for about a month now and I can't be happier with this machine, I truly enjoy your content and truly hope your channel explode to million subscribers that can appreciate your excellent work like I do.
Congrats for your channel and I hope this was a great year to you Jarod.
Thanks! Good to hear the Helios is going well 👍
@@JarrodsTech is it good for graphic design? I'm trying to decide between this and the Y540. Thanks
You've done an excellent job this year, my friend!
Thank you!
no he hasnt
To many more years of Jarrod and many more subs!
Cheers to that!
Thanks mate!
Yep.. M sure he is the best reviewer right now. No one else is as thorough as him plus you gotta be a badass gamer to test these many games... LOL.
@@lion11ist I suck at games if you watch my gameplay 😁
Yer I remember him having 1k subs
Awesome summary of 2019 for gaming laptops Jarrod! Your hardwork is inspiring. 😊
Cheers Ivan!
Great job, your video is truly remarkable, thanks a million for the inputs given, continue the good work
Thanks!
Thanks for the hard work this year and I hope you’ll be more successful next year Jarrod!
Cheers Steve!

Such clean shots with tantalizing slow pans. 👌👌👌
Haha thanks!
All these results are reversed cuz he's in Australia

Silver oh shit i didnt think of that! Damn i just bought one :(
@@baqcasanke Twas a joke m8
Is it true
Your channel is so underrated. Hope that your channel gets the respect it deserves.
Thanks!
I would like to thank you for putting that amazing effort and time into testing the different range of laptops.
You really helped to decide which laptop to purchase this year :) I went with the Acer Predator Helios 300 and I couldn't be happier :)
kudos to you
That's good to hear, cheers!
Thank you, Jarrod. I've bought Lenovo Legion Y540 with i7-9750H and 1660ti after your review, and I'm really happy to use this machine. It can absolutely everything and do anything without problems.
Glad I could help and good to hear it's going well!
How’s the battery life?
I watched videos here regularly, but now i just subscribed. Impressive reviews 😁
Welcome to the channel!
Thank you so much for making this video!
I was on the fence on choosing between Asus GX502GW and MSI GS75, where I was able to find the latter laptop sellingfor $2500 AUD. However, after viewing all your videos relating to GX502GW and seeing the overwhelming positive notes given to it, I decided to go with this laptop over MSI.
The only downsides for going for GX502GW is the fact that it costs $3100 AUD (cheapest I could find atm) which, it goes over my initial budget of $3000 AUD. Also, I'd probably need to get another stick of RAM which would cost additional $100 AUD.
Unfortunately, ever since the release of GX502GW in Australia, I didn't see this laptop going on sale anywhere so that's a bit of a shame. Though, thanks for your reviews, I believe that it might be a worthwhile investment where it'll suit my gaming and portability needs.
No problem! Yeah definitely not cheap, but yeah should perform very well with the extra memory!
Thank you, based on your review, when I did see a new Y540 (9300-1660ti, 8gb, 128ssd+1To, windows10) at 799€... I jumped on it... and don’t regret it at all... ;)
Nice, good to hear!
I like the recap you did at the beginning. I haven’t been following on any new techs good to get brush up on.
That's good to hear! Wasn't sure if I should include it, so I'll keep that in mind and use it next year too 😁
this is a great summary.
I am going to say that for me the keyboard on the 17inch Zephyrus was one of the selling points as I prefer it that way. But I can see how that may be personal preference. Just like the fact that the camera is not built-in (again, I like it better that way). I love everything about this laptop and it is an absolute beast.
This is a great channel. Helped me make some decisions. Thank you, sir!
Gotta be honest, the way he writes his script and talks is so soothing. Keep up brother
Uno this guy has replied to every comment I've ever left I was looking for a laptop and kept asking for advise and now I have a asus zenbook duo that he recently reviewed felt great to comment my opinion of it
@@zaidanmockbill7818 one of the things I like the most about Jared is that he responds to everyone's comment, even those recently commented on videos months old.
Cheers!
I have to say, after seeing the reviews from you and other sources, I pulled the trigger on the predator helios 300 and couldn't be more happy. Sure, the fans sound like it's doing to take off if I game on it, but I'm using it connected to a monitor in lieu of a desktop and I can take it with me when I travel. It has a full number pad (Important to me) and enough screen to use excel capably. Anxiously awaiting your CES coverage because I feel like AMD is going to have some really compelling options in 2-3 years.
Good to hear! Yeah I'm keen to get there and check it out, it will be interesting, it will take me about 24 hours of flying to get there then I have 2 back to back meetings the day before it even begins haha, so hopefully I can get some early info/videos before sleeping for ever.
Thanks for the reviews, recently bought Acer Nitro 5, wish i had more to buy the helios 300, more subs to come!!
Nice video. I bought the Legion y540 with i7 and gtx 1650. I mostly run architecture programs and it performs extremely well.
Thanks, that's great to hear!
Bought Acer Helios 300 (2019 edition) when it came out and absolutely love it.
Good to hear!
Mine is coming tomorrow
@@JarrodsTech I got the old helios version when it came out and im upgrading to a triton 500
Lenovo y540 user? ❤️
Man gotta say the perfect laptop for everything....
Update on battery - i get atleast 3.5 hours of usage :D
Use it daily for around 8 hours 👍🏻
Nice, yeah it's a decent one.
Easily the best laptop reviewer on youtube. Tremendous amount of effort goes into these videos but if this wasn't enough he also finds time to respond almost to everyone in the comment section :). Absolutely incredible, keep it up man! Wish you 10 million subs :)
Cheers! Haha I'll settle for 1M 😉
Thanx for good reviews, and guidance for my latop-purchase. Ended up with a y540, i7 9750h, rtx2060, 1tb storage, 144hz screen and 16gb ram for a very good price here in Norway during black friday.
Nice one!
For me, the laptop of the year was the Lenovo Y740 17.3" (RTX 2080 Max-Q version)
Excellent and active cooling at a relatively low noise level, it handles heavy games wonderfully, it's great for creative work, the 144hz monitor is clean, bright and colourful and it has 1TB of SSD Storage, what's not to like.
The downside with it was its price point. I'm sure you're able to get something cheaper in the same category, but since I got it on black friday, where it was around 500-600 dollars off in Denmark, I couldn't really factor that in. Else, it would've been way too expensive.
Oh hello there, Arcien. Didn't expect to see you here. You got good music.
@@ParallaxPromotions Oh wow, thank you so much!
lucky. Of course its the best at the price point you have bought
Arcien I agree, that machine is perfectly balanced.
at how much ?
I totally agree with your pick for Beat Value Gaming Laptop. I picked myself up a 17" version of the Acer Predator Helios 300 (9750H, 1660Ti, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, RGB KB) for about $1450. And I had just barely missed the sale for it too, I believe it was going for $1250 around Black Friday, whixh was an insane deal.
I've had it for about 3 weeks now and man do I love this thing. The extra screen is awesome, something I'd happily trade off for portability anyday. I don't think there's any way for me to go back to a smaller screen now.
But I owe my thanks to you tho Jarrod, there were so many options and it was so hard to choose, but watching your videos made it so much easier to choose. Keep up the great work man. Cheers to a great 2020! 👍
Can you send a link to it ?
I got it for $928 on black friday from amazon. Crazy deal.
@@Adrianthegr8 same, although it comes with only 258 SSD
Great to hear!
In my country it costs like 2000 USD, like what?
Great video! A very genuine review of laptops of this year! Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
I’ve been waiting so long for this, worth it in the end, great video 👍
Thanks!
Got my lenovo y540 for 1000.-
Good to see that I chose correctly.
Nice one!
I bought an Acer 300 Helios, 144 Hertz following your reviews. Although I did buy the 2060 version and I'm currently upgrading the 2.5 in HDD and have just stuck in 32GB of corsair RAM.
Happy with it so far.
any thermal issues ?
@@chockolato, zero so far, but I haven't really tried to stress it out.
32gb ram??? Wot?
@@26_rafiarya12 , what do you mean by wot? 2 x 16GB of DDR4 2666 corsair vengeance RAM = 32GB.
Some of my work related stuff will be very happy for the extra RAM.
Good to hear!
Love your channel, straight forward and informative content. Please keep up the good work! Your videos has helped and saved me hours of dilemma!
Cheers!
Jarrod, thank you for your reviews! They helped me to get detailed laptop testing results and a much valued opinion on certain laptops that I have considered to buy for personal use.
Thank you for doing reviews at quite a high pace through the year, must have been a nightmare to compile so much data so quick at times :) You always had a review coming up or already on the channel of any laptop I had in mind through 2019!
Having tried Razer Blade 17 (2080MaxQ) I did not like the very shallow keyboard, I found it even worse than on my old Razer Blade 14, plus size and weight wise this was too much for me and needed something smaller and lighter for travels. One thing to note, gaming performance on it was phenomenal.
So my choice for 2019 was between Aero and later (thanks to your channel) Asus GX502GW!
On Aero, again, personally I had ergonomics issues with edge to edge full keyboard in 15inch form factor device... Simply uncomfortable. Great battery life and good CPU performance though.
But, Asus GX502GW was my choice in the end! Now good few months and I love it. My machine can undervolt a little bit beyond your test unit and I also had it re-pasted to improve thermal performance. 2070 MaxP and G-Sync screen is best compact (sub 2Kg, 15 inch) on the go gaming experience I ever had! :)
That's good to hear! I'm glad you were able to get one that works well for you 👌
The best rewind of the year 👏
Haha better than TH-cam rewind I hope!
@@JarrodsTech ovio
i got the Dell G3 3590 for $699 on black friday, great deal.
Nice!
Did not expect the story arc from 21:02 to 21:22 😂
Thanks for the roundup!
No worries! Haha it was so sad, I was hoping I'd be able to use it for a bunch of comparisons like i5 vs i7 but that ruined it all!
This channel deserves way more subs than 145k subs. Keep up the good work, Jarrods!
Thanks!
i got my acer nitro 5 for 1300 during black friday sale in australia with specs of 1650 16gb ram 512gb ssd red light up keyboard
its really good
Cool, I think they're about to have another sale on the nitro series I'll have a video soon
another sale? when?
Can u tell me how much is the fps for path of exile game?
Yay, Helios 300, I got it on Black Friday :D
Is it portable? For instance if you bring it to college w you
Same here brother. That was the best deal ever, holy shit.
Me too
@@D-- I have one, is a bit heavier than my last laptop, but I did some research and Helios is one of the lighters gaming laptops for that specs and price. I would go for Acer Triton if I had more money to invest tho, because it is even lighter.
Woohoo!
The Video I've been waiting for!
thanks Jarrod! ☺
Happy to help!

Great reviews man, looking forward to 2020. :)
Thanks! Me too!
You still havent gotten the Alienware M15 R2 ?
I have not, seems like they don't want to send me one.
I own the Modern 14 $899 model that has the 10th gen i5, 8gbs of ram, and an MX250.
At this price point it is perfect for a college student (like myself) wanting it for school and light gaming.
The alternative to this is the Razer Blade Stealth 13 which costs $1300 for an i7, 16gbs of ram, and an MX150.
Razer Blade Stealth 13 is a better laptop but considering the price difference I had to go with the Modern 14 and it's getting the job done.
Edit: The Modern 14 models have two fans unlike the Prestige 14 models which have one so heating won't be an issue with the Modern 14.
Don't buy the Prestige 14 model unless you plan on undervolting.
you made a great choice!
I have a Prestige 14 here at the moment, but will be a couple weeks til I get time to test that one unfortunately.
I bought a GX 502 because of your awesome review. The machine is just as brillant as you have described.

Woohoo!
I bought an MSi PS63 this summer for a steal at $980 including shipping and taxes. I love it and its battery life and being lightweight is the main reason I got it having come from a 6yr old Toshiba Satellite.
Nice one, good to hear! Sounds like quite the upgrade 😃
I just bought an Asus Zephyrus S 15.6" thin today! It's just the RTX 2060, but as someone with a terrible Acer Aspire ES 15 (with 4gb RAM and 500 HDD), I think it'll be quite the improvement. I've been watching your videos for a solid 10 days to help me decide. Thanks for your work! It's helped me tremendously.
No problem glad I can help, that sounds like a big upgrade!

how is it, worth it or go for the helios?

@@JarrodsTech the RGB category!
What about dell G7..??
It's fine, wasn't really special enough for it to fit in any of the categories I looked at.
Such good, so info.
Best channel and reviewer of them all.
Thanks!
The y740 has the best gaming laptop screen out right now with avg 430 nit sustained brightness and great color reproduction. G sync, hdr400 (albeit low HD cert) along with 144hz and 10ms rt makes it a much stronger contender for the 1-2k range :) justmy thoughts. Thanks Jarrod. Everything everyone is saying about how well you're doing and how much more we can't wait to watch this year is so true man! Well done. You're on your way to 1m subs!
Cheers Sean! I think the 740 has a 500 nit panel option so yeah nice and bright there, also G-Sync on the cheaper side compared to many alternatives out there.
I do not envy the dude below.
lol
I don’t see scar 3 😭 😢.
It was fine/average, I guess didn't really stick out enough in the categories I looked at.
Jarrod'sTech what about alienware m15 r2
@@JarrodsTech What categories jarrod may i know cause it has the best sounding speakers as well as attractive rgb lights .
The SCAR III has the best monitor on the marker(for gaming). I have one and I'm really satisfied by it!

bro i am having some stuttering issue like a miner stutter where fps drops from 84 to 74 some times 60 to 59 and suddenly stutters a bit which is a bit annoying .
Hey man, big fan here.
Please don't be afraid to list the AUD prices for laptops. I get that USD is best for a general gauge but god knows how shit our pricing transparency is haha.
Very underrated channel
And your presentation is perfect
Thank you so much 😀
i watched every tech yt video on best laptop to buy... and i think yours is far much better than the others.
like if you agree
Thanks!
No Thinkpaps ?((((( eeeeh
Unfortunately I didn't test any thonkpads in 2019. I finally have better communication with Lenovo and did ask for one a couple weeks ago, but no luck so far, waiting to hear back.
@@JarrodsTech Will so cool to see in the future your review on thinkpads with ryzen 4000 series.
Great job. Couldn't have asked for more.
Thanks!
Really you deserve more subs man your content is very good and you are on another level testing details.... Good review over all....
Thank you!
Best channel ever !!! Happy christmas jarrod 🎅👌
Thanks! Same to you!
Love your channel, im thinking to get a new laptop and your videos helped me a lot. And your videos are just nice to watch.
Glad to hear it! Thanks!
Subscribed! I'm currently considering the Asus Zephyrus GX701, but hoping to see something that might change my mind at CES.
Welcome to the channel!
Great video as always. +1 for the Helios 300. I managed to snap it for 930$ at Black Friday, Been rocking pretty solid and cool.
Thanks, nice good to hear someone got on that deal!
@@JarrodsTech Yeah! sucks that it only comes with 256Gb NVMe, and and the price difference between higher storage is just not worth it as you can get additional drive for less.
Love it. Have many upgrade options. Fantastic Machine.
Really wish you coulda snuck a Metabox Prime-V review in, in time for this. Am just about to get myself an Xmas present, and although I like the style of others in the price range better, for value for money (and 12mths interest free) the Metabox Alpha-X NH58RD is what I'm just about to buy. But I certainly considered the Scar III, Triton 500, Auros 15WA, Apex 15, based on your reviews, and the aforementioned Prime V. But don't think G-Sync and Thunderbolt will be that big a deal for my needs.
The bottom line here is, I couldn't have made such an informed decision without your channel, Jarrod. It was a minefield at first, but going through your videos helped me understand what I was really looking for. Love your work mate, here's to 2020!
Thanks, great to hear! I have the Prime-V here, but won't get a chance to get to it til next year, just too much on my plate until I get back from CES 2020 (need to try do MSI Prestige 14, Lenovo Y7000, Lenovo Y545, Acer nitro/helios/triton comparison, Triton 900, Blade Stealth before I leave in 2 weeks)
I wish u get to a million subs as soon as possible , u deserve to be up there
Thanks! Maybe we'll get there one day with support like that 😁
As for budget gaming laptops, I love my Dell G3 3590 w/ i5 9300H & GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q. I bought it on sale for $685 which is an absolute steal. With a little help from ThrottleStop and some ThermalGrizzly, max temp on CPU is 82C in a 26C room.
Nice deal, and nice improvement!
Great info, keep it up in 2020✌
Cheers!
Also, you deserve WAY more subs and you’re voice is relaxing.
Haha thanks
I have the Asus Rog gx502.... and its a GREAT laptop! definitely the best thin and powerful. Great video Jarod Tech
Thanks Nick!
Nice review, the only one with real effort ive seen this year. Please keep up the good work and act more nature when voicing it.
Thanks! This is just how I sound, not a whole lot I can do about it.
