Thoughts on a Helios 300 with Ryzen CPUs and a 1660 Ti for $1000? Also, website expected to go live in about 4-6 weeks (hopefully). Will be pretty hot :pog:
So i ordered this thing couple days ago and i have a question. When i am gaming am i supposed to have it plugged in? cuz the battery isnt removable and performane is much better with it plugged in or will the battery degrade too much too soon?
@@zildjhongarcia3386 Naukay Laptop Bag 15 Inch on Amazon. It's a sleeve. I've boughten several Amazon sleeves. I thought I was using one. They are mostly all the same thing.
I think for Dell hinges they are actually designed well compared to Lenovo. I've seen Lenovo laptop hinges get wrecked, but the hinges on the Dell 7567 I bought as a second hand still works flawlessly. Of course unit defect or user error could lead to the same problems.
I got mine from amazon a few weeks ago and love it. I have the same issue with the keyboard as well, but it is very minor and I have to be mindful to properly hit the keys squarely and firmly. It could be I was used to a keyboard that was very sensitive. Absolutely love it though, it runs great and is easy to transport. The Acer Predator software is very cool too. I can concur with the issues of removing the bottom tray, it is a pain but is much easier with proper tools.
It's actually very easy to get inside. After removing the screws you just press the arrows at the back and the whole cover simply clicks-free. Very easy and no need for and credit card to open clips.
Can anyone tell me which one data review has high accuracy because I confused with the Gamut display as comparing this data with the own or disown review data
I'm getting this laptop soon! And I'm so happy that I waited for this laptop than settling for the Asus TUF A15 for the same price. It cost me around $1,550 here in my country, but they sell it in malls for $2,000.
I was aiming straight for this laptop after choosing it between the HP Omen and this one. Do you think it's much of a concern the hinges problem you mentioned earlier in the video?
I have a helios 300 gtx 1660 ti and it's great. Temperatures are amazing as well as performance for the price. I recently uploaded some gameplay footage of cyberpunk on the laptop, if you want to see how it performs (even though the game isnt well optimized yet 😅)
Yep, I reused footage from the 2019 model for the exterior shots because I got lazy. You can confirm it's the 2020 model from the silver plastic pieces below the rear exhaust vents and the rear charging port.
i had a alienware r2 and loved it. had a dell g5 loved it. had a asus rog and hated it. now i just got the 2020 helios 300 like in the video and its the best laptop ive ever owned. ive only had it for 1 week but its awsome so far and i got ot for $1145
I bought this beast for 1.12 lakhs with 3 years Any damage Warranty from Acer website a month ago. Now the price has gone up or out of stock, I think. That was an awesome deal I think.
What's better? This or the Legion 5 AMD 1660ti? Thanks! Both cost $2400- $2600 where I'm from and I need to make the right decision. Thermals from what I've seen already have me leaning toward the Legion
The rtx 2060 is 14% faster than gtx 1660ti...also,you get DLS which is quite promising along with ray tracing..so rtx 2060 is good to go and worth going for.
Hi, whats up friend. I wanted to ask you a question? I am in doubt which team is better in both games and software use. I like these 2 laptops. Acer Predator Helios 300 2020. Msi gp65 leopard both have the tenth generation i7 and rtx 2060. I would like you to give me your opinion.
I was able to get this model for the same price but with a 17.3 inch 144Hz, and 1TB NVMe SSD, everything else is the same as the one your reviewed, I should get it on Friday!

tl;dr I make money by selling products so I don't care about making an extra $1000 when it's just going to annoy viewers. If you mean TH-cam ads, there should be. If you mean paid promotions like "check out this product, use my code for 5% off" it's because you came here to see a review of a product, not to listen to me tell you about some random company nobody cares about. Someone from HP contacted me after my last video on the OMEN 15 telling me I can make money from affiliate links in the description of my videos. I said no, but I'd be interested in reviewing their laptops. They said I need to join their affiliate program to get review units, and that I would be forced to put affiliate links in ALL my HP reviews AND I need to tell my viewers to check them out so I declined. I can get laptops myself, it just might take longer. The reason is because I want my videos to be as entertaining and as least annoying as possible. I want to maintain a high level of trust, and if I start accepting money to promote products, how do my viewers know that I'm not being influenced by money even just a little bit? My videos get more views than my subscriber count and I'll be using my channel to promote my business soon for web design and development. The more views my videos get, the better my business will do. I get offers for $3-5000 USD for a 3 minute promotional video, and $700-1000 for a 1 minute in-video ad. That's nothing compared what I expect to make from web development. My channel is for reviews only, and I make money by selling products (in this case websites).

@@houneavireakpong9098 As someone who has been gaming on a samsung since 2013 till now I can attest that having it plugged in did not degrade it, how ever I did at one point get a battery change in this 7 years I abused this laptop but I think it was due to the fact that I overheated the laptop in hot seasons and I also dropped it a few times.
I think the important thing with batteries is that they degrade more when going through more charge cycles. As long as it's plugged in always, you should be fine. The moment you start doing things like unplugging and letting it drop to 70-80% and then plugging it back again it starts to cause a problem.
@@a.Hopeful thats funny I have heard the opposite, my friend for example always charges his laptop to full and then lets it go down to 10-12% and charges again, he has a mac though and idk if that is relevant.
I'll look into it. I've already reviewed the spectre so I wasn't sure if it made sense reviewing the envy since they seemed to similar. I saw them both in person and at first glance they didn't seem all that different, but I'll bump it up on my priority because of your comment. Funnily enough, someone from HP emailed me after my previous video on the OMEN 15 saying I can get review units if I put affiliate links in my videos and tell people to check them out. I declined because that's annoying, so I'm not sure how long it will take to get the Ryzen model specifically. But if I find one and I don't have more popular laptops to review, I'll make a video
@@InfinityLabsTech Sounds good, it's been getting a lot of praise. Since your reviews are unbiased and to the point, so it'd be great to see the review. About the affiliate links, it's really nice of you to think about the viewers and I read a comment where you said you just review and do not go promoting companies that no one is interested in. Totally your call about the affiliate links man, even if you go with it, we'll be fine since we're still getting some good content from you. Cheers and thank you :)
@@addycool06 Well regarding the money, this might sound kinda douchey but I've gotten desensitized to money. I've used a lot of nice computers, grew up in a fairly large house, driven Porsches and Teslas, and now I don't really idolize anything. I don't own any of those things, to be clear. I just got the opportunity to experience those things. But after you experience them first hand and the excitement wears off, you can appreciate them but it's not like "i'm going to work the rest of my life to own this car" or "I'm gonna work overtime to buy a custom water cooled desktop." And for this reason, I don't have anything I'm desperate to purchase so I don't care about milking my channel for money. Besides, what's a couple thousand dollars when I can make a couple hundred thousand a year from my web design and development business? TH-cam for me is a fun little hobby on the side, programming and business is what I'm looking to pursue. In the long run, the ad revenue from this channel alone could pretty easily make $5000 per month and the value in self promoting my businesses would be almost invaluable if I got a couple hundred thousand views per video. Those are my reasons for refusing to accept any money outside of TH-cam ad revenue. Sounds like a huge brag, but you seem cool and I thought you might be interested.
@@InfinityLabsTech hey im currently having trouble deciding on whether i should get the helios 300 with the specs an in the vid or the omen 15 with the rtx 2060 i7-10750h 300hz. The helios is arnd 70 bucks cheaper. what would u get? Thanks
this laptop cost about 2300 dollar at my country (israel) so fun although i bought this laptop on amazon despite the taxes is still was pretty cheap at about price of (with 350 texes and 60 dollars shipping) about 1600 dollar😭🙂
Hey what should be the ideal cpu temperature for a laptop while gaming. My current laptop has an i5 7th gen processor and goes upto 80 degrees when gaming. Is that normal. I see in the review he is saying the temp goes 90 degrees isn't that way tooo high?
Not sure if i want this or a I7-10750H 2080 Super - 300hz screen Razor blade 15 for $1000! But I heard the heat temps get high and that makes me not want to get it because would the high temps make the life of the laptop short? And would the fans be super loud?
Hi good afternoon, please i have a question . am planning on buying this laptop for cinema modelling and am kinda curious if the laptop can be upgrade into 32gb ram or more graphics card. thank you
Ye I reused footage from my 2019 review. Didn't realize the branding was removed, oof. But yeah you were right on the silver accent pieces below the exhaust vents. I believe the 2019 model had the charging port on the left side too, can't remember for sure
A friend of mine asked what would be a good thin and light 14 inch laptop with decent graphic for occasional gaming for around $1000 (can be a little bit over and under). What would you recommend? Nice video as always!
I don't think I've reviewed any 14" laptops with a GTX 1650 or equivalent GPU. I guess maybe the Lenovo IdeaPad 14". There's a bunch of ideapad models, but I reviewed the 15" IdeaPad S740 and apparently there's a 14" version as well with decent performance. I liked the 15", but haven't used the 14" myself so I can't tell you how it is. I'm on my phone at the moment but I'm gonna assume the G14 that's been popular lately is over their budget. Those 2 are all I got off the top of my head
watching this on my helios 300 lol for those that have this laptop I suggest you put in the power option ... 99% processor performance max to lower the Heat it produces for a slight performance loss , especially for those that live in Hot places
Thanks for the review, can't believe the latest Helios 300 tested Prime95 CPU at 93 degree Celsius compare to the latest Omen at 83 Celsius!!! Helios is suppose to be cooler. Bad thermal paste perhaps?
I have heard many complaints about heating issue in Helios 300. Most of them tell that it is just Acer cheaping out on the thermal paste. But if you use MX-4 or Kryonaut, you would be fine. It decreases the temp down 13-20*C. The result is that when you run the app making it peaks out at 93-95 will now be as low as 70-77
When battery is low/drained, does fan speed increase to 3k RPM during battery charging even when idle and temps are low (40-45c)? I have the same laptop and wonder if this is normal or not.
Nope not sure if they have 17inch for this one but all the 17inch 300 helios cost around 300$ more in US if you are in third world it goes pretty high for 15inch itself
0:23 wow dodgeball my favorite ❤️ i was rank 2 out of thousands of players on the server i joined but kinda sad i stopped because i dont have laptop nor computer to play thats why im looking for a gaming laptop ❤️🥰
is a 15 inch screen too small or should i get the 17 inch one. the only problem i have with getting 17 inch one is its not verified by amazon and last time i ordered one that wasn’t verified in any way with amazon it never came
I live in EU and this laptop with same config costs upto £2000 in amazon uk. I bought this laptop from amazon . Com for €1500( including import tax) and I am absolutely in love with it.
@@darryl9427 ye ik England is not in EU. It is however, the closest amazon to Ireland(where i stay)and they dont charge import charges. Not yet anyway. Its usually my go-to amazon so I compared the 2 prices and found that buying from US was cheaper
Can you please suggest me a laptop according to the following requirements:- At least Nvidia gtx 1660ti Core i7 Colour accurate 144hz screen Light and thin
You might want to take a look at the Asus Zephryus G14. Not exactly a laptop with an i7 but you get AMD's new 4000 series CPU. That's much better than intel. Also the GPU's an RTX 2060
I reused footage for the exterior shots from the previous model. The 2019 model doesn't have silver pieces under the exhaust vents or a rear charging port.
I am in a dilemma, I have a old pc that is really showing its age and I want to get something that plays as many games at 144fps 1080p. Is this laptop able to play top of the line new games at 144fps 1080?
On this laptop I can say is really good for what u pay, I mean I got from $1170 and most gaming laptop with a rtx 2060 and above are way too expensive, this one is amazing for the price, I can play most games at 60fps or even at 144, is so good, specially when jumping from a gtx960m! One day I will build a desktop one.

As long as it's plugged in always, you should be fine. The moment you start doing things like unplugging and letting it drop to 70-80% and then plugging it back again it starts to cause a problem.
Yes plugged in.
@@a.Hopeful thats funny I have heard the opposite, my friend for example always charges his laptop to full and then lets it go down to 10-12% and charges again, he has a mac though and idk if that is relevant.
Does this come factory undervolted like last year’s model?
Yes undervolt it self better fps has turbo button can enable overclock and max speed fan mode
10th gen Intel cpus are non undervoltable
Nice video, really nice quality
Hey ..I kinda need help in choosing between Helios 300 and hp omen ..
Which should I choose for 3d modelling?..
would you reccomend this over the omen 15 or legion 5 ifs under 1300 unlike the other 2
Hey man, insightful review. Would we be seeing an HP envy x360 ryzen review anytime soon?
I'll look into it. I've already reviewed the spectre so I wasn't sure if it made sense reviewing the envy since they seemed to similar. I saw them both in person and at first glance they didn't seem all that different, but I'll bump it up on my priority because of your comment.
Funnily enough, someone from HP emailed me after my previous video on the OMEN 15 saying I can get review units if I put affiliate links in my videos and tell people to check them out. I declined because that's annoying, so I'm not sure how long it will take to get the Ryzen model specifically. But if I find one and I don't have more popular laptops to review, I'll make a video
Infinity Labs it’s not really annoying bro, do it you’ll get more money and profit and grow!
@@InfinityLabsTech Sounds good, it's been getting a lot of praise. Since your reviews are unbiased and to the point, so it'd be great to see the review.
About the affiliate links, it's really nice of you to think about the viewers and I read a comment where you said you just review and do not go promoting companies that no one is interested in.
Totally your call about the affiliate links man, even if you go with it, we'll be fine since we're still getting some good content from you.
Cheers and thank you :)
@@addycool06 Well regarding the money, this might sound kinda douchey but I've gotten desensitized to money. I've used a lot of nice computers, grew up in a fairly large house, driven Porsches and Teslas, and now I don't really idolize anything. I don't own any of those things, to be clear. I just got the opportunity to experience those things. But after you experience them first hand and the excitement wears off, you can appreciate them but it's not like "i'm going to work the rest of my life to own this car" or "I'm gonna work overtime to buy a custom water cooled desktop." And for this reason, I don't have anything I'm desperate to purchase so I don't care about milking my channel for money. Besides, what's a couple thousand dollars when I can make a couple hundred thousand a year from my web design and development business? TH-cam for me is a fun little hobby on the side, programming and business is what I'm looking to pursue. In the long run, the ad revenue from this channel alone could pretty easily make $5000 per month and the value in self promoting my businesses would be almost invaluable if I got a couple hundred thousand views per video. Those are my reasons for refusing to accept any money outside of TH-cam ad revenue. Sounds like a huge brag, but you seem cool and I thought you might be interested.
@@InfinityLabsTech hey im currently having trouble deciding on whether i should get the helios 300 with the specs an in the vid or the omen 15 with the rtx 2060 i7-10750h 300hz. The helios is arnd 70 bucks cheaper. what would u get? Thanks
this laptop cost about 2300 dollar at my country (israel) so fun
although i bought this laptop on amazon despite the taxes is still was pretty cheap at about price of (with 350 texes and 60 dollars shipping) about 1600 dollar😭🙂
please add links to the products in the discription
Can you do a review on Acer predator helios 300 with fhd 240hz 3ms, i7-10750H, geforce rtx 2070 max q, 512gb ssd?
This costs upto $2000 in the middle east where I currently live, however ordering it on Amazon saved 800 bucks plus a hard drive
how much did u pay in usd
Hey what should be the ideal cpu temperature for a laptop while gaming. My current laptop has an i5 7th gen processor and goes upto 80 degrees when gaming. Is that normal. I see in the review he is saying the temp goes 90 degrees isn't that way tooo high?
Could anyone tell me why there is a difference in the airflow of both the left and right side vents in the 2019 Helios 300 model?
Not sure if i want this or a I7-10750H 2080 Super - 300hz screen Razor blade 15 for $1000!
But I heard the heat temps get high and that makes me not want to get it because would the high temps make the life of the laptop short? And would the fans be super loud?
Hi good afternoon, please i have a question . am planning on buying this laptop for cinema modelling and am kinda curious if the laptop can be upgrade into 32gb ram or more graphics card. thank you
the offer that was in amazon is no longer available :(
loudest laptop i ever used, even on idle.
What do you think is better this model or hp omen ryzen 7 4800h with 1660 ti.
I m so confused bw these two..
Plssss reply....
Anyone
Wtf? Didn't they remove the predator text from lid in 2020 model?
weird, the one i bought does not have the predator logo and yes, it is the 2020 model as well
@@ourwrId i was about to comment "clickbait 2019 model" lol then i saw the vents and silver accents
Ye I reused footage from my 2019 review. Didn't realize the branding was removed, oof. But yeah you were right on the silver accent pieces below the exhaust vents. I believe the 2019 model had the charging port on the left side too, can't remember for sure
@@InfinityLabsTech ah that explains it,lol
Btw yh the charging port is shifted to the back from the left
Hello!!! How will you compare this to the legion 5i rtx2060 variant?
Where did you get this from?
When it will release in India ?? Helios 300 2020 model??
A friend of mine asked what would be a good thin and light 14 inch laptop with decent graphic for occasional gaming for around $1000 (can be a little bit over and under). What would you recommend? Nice video as always!
Maybe there is something from Lenovo?
@@officertenpenny4505 thanks, do you know a specific model?
I don't think I've reviewed any 14" laptops with a GTX 1650 or equivalent GPU. I guess maybe the Lenovo IdeaPad 14". There's a bunch of ideapad models, but I reviewed the 15" IdeaPad S740 and apparently there's a 14" version as well with decent performance. I liked the 15", but haven't used the 14" myself so I can't tell you how it is. I'm on my phone at the moment but I'm gonna assume the G14 that's been popular lately is over their budget. Those 2 are all I got off the top of my head
ZacKaLy not sure, I think it also depends on the region. However I think your friend should include 15.6 models in to consideration.
@@InfinityLabsTech thanks for the detailed recommendation!
This or the G14 ?! Can't decide !!!!
It used to be $1200 on Amazon, now it's $1500
Sed man. You know the reason for the hike ? If yes then please reply :)
Yea I’m seeing the same thing...
No bro it's out of stock
watching this on my helios 300 lol
for those that have this laptop I suggest you put in the power option ... 99% processor performance max to lower the Heat it produces for a slight performance loss , especially for those that live in Hot places
Lord Zephyros wdym?
Did you notice a coil whine noise from the fans?
Thanks for the review, can't believe the latest Helios 300 tested Prime95 CPU at 93 degree Celsius compare to the latest Omen at 83 Celsius!!! Helios is suppose to be cooler. Bad thermal paste perhaps?
I have heard many complaints about heating issue in Helios 300. Most of them tell that it is just Acer cheaping out on the thermal paste. But if you use MX-4 or Kryonaut, you would be fine. It decreases the temp down 13-20*C. The result is that when you run the app making it peaks out at 93-95 will now be as low as 70-77
@Dejan Milovanovic it is a thermal paste. Repasting the processor and graphics helps you lower the temperature of your laptop during heavy loads.
Im having the same problem with the keyboard. I dont like pressing keyboard heavily 😐
When battery is low/drained, does fan speed increase to 3k RPM during battery charging even when idle and temps are low (40-45c)? I have the same laptop and wonder if this is normal or not.
Is the new predator 2020, rtx2060 graphics on $1200? Can you provide the link for that?
is the price of the 17 inch similar to the 15 inch one?
Nope not sure if they have 17inch for this one but all the 17inch 300 helios cost around 300$ more in US if you are in third world it goes pretty high for 15inch itself
your videos are really cool, but i have a request, can you review the dell latitude e6540, its from 2013, but i want to see it reviewd
What is the difference in display compared to 2019
nice review
0:23 wow dodgeball my favorite ❤️ i was rank 2 out of thousands of players on the server i joined but kinda sad i stopped because i dont have laptop nor computer to play thats why im looking for a gaming laptop ❤️🥰
is a 15 inch screen too small or should i get the 17 inch one. the only problem i have with getting 17 inch one is its not verified by amazon and last time i ordered one that wasn’t verified in any way with amazon it never came
I live in EU and this laptop with same config costs upto £2000 in amazon uk. I bought this laptop from amazon . Com for €1500( including import tax) and I am absolutely in love with it.
england is not in the eu.....
leave ´the´ away
@@darryl9427 ye ik England is not in EU. It is however, the closest amazon to Ireland(where i stay)and they dont charge import charges. Not yet anyway. Its usually my go-to amazon so I compared the 2 prices and found that buying from US was cheaper
Can you please suggest me a laptop according to the following requirements:-
At least Nvidia gtx 1660ti
Core i7
Colour accurate 144hz screen
Light and thin
You might want to take a look at the Asus Zephryus G14. Not exactly a laptop with an i7 but you get AMD's new 4000 series CPU. That's much better than intel. Also the GPU's an RTX 2060
Hp omen 15
I don’t remember exactly but I think it was the gl66 or something like that is 1500 with a 2070
Gl65 in the us
Can you do a gaming benchmark video for the Omen 15
0:48 I thought the word predator was removed in the 2020 version?
I reused footage for the exterior shots from the previous model. The 2019 model doesn't have silver pieces under the exhaust vents or a rear charging port.
@@InfinityLabsTech I ordered same Laptop from Amazon and there was not Any Os installed on it . 🙄 i have rised complain .
@@akashfesate Dude, Can you please tell me at which price you got this laptop ? Price got hiked from 1200 USD to 1448 USD.
@@arunkalyan5028 yes at 1200 dollars , it arrived a week ago.
@Martinus Gamer Absolutely...But I was really disappointed that it didn't came with windows 10 Home pre installed 😔
I am in a dilemma, I have a old pc that is really showing its age and I want to get something that plays as many games at 144fps 1080p. Is this laptop able to play top of the line new games at 144fps 1080?
On this laptop I can say is really good for what u pay, I mean I got from $1170 and most gaming laptop with a rtx 2060 and above are way too expensive, this one is amazing for the price, I can play most games at 60fps or even at 144, is so good, specially when jumping from a gtx960m! One day I will build a desktop one.
Amazon or Acer store?
@@killshotz6747 amazon
can you opt for a version with a bigger batter without the hdd?
Is it my laptop or the w key has a small button there?
Please review the new Acer Predator Triton 300
