acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6" Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, Intel i7-9750H, GeForce RTX 2060 with 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, RGB Keyboard, PH315-52-72EV

I believe this is the best midrange gaming laptop for the buck. Performance is as advertised, no disappointments. My son loves it too, plays all his games with no issues. Who cares about battery life. Can't beat it for the money.

I Love this laptop. I game a lot on it and it can handle anything that I play. It does run a little hot and I had to re-paste the CPU/GPU and have had not issues with it since. I play Borderlands 3, Witcher 3, WOW, Final Fantasy XIV, Fallout and a lot of older games on high/ultra setting with no issues. This has been a great gaming laptop and I will definitely be getting another Acer product when I finally give it to the wife and buy another.

When I unboxed it I loved the presentation, a specialty box was a nice touch. Startup and setup presented no issues although the Microsoft suite really wants you to use a Microsoft account. Screen quality is great, system runs stable and very fast. I installed a Samsung 2TB SSD and 500GB M.2 drive with ease, about 15 minutes if you really take your time. The battery life of the laptop is good and will give you as advertised battery life for most functions but if you are going to run a load-heavy game like Escape from Tarkov, have your power cable with you. The game places pretty heavy demands on the CPU and GPU which drains the battery quickly. Other than being picky about the battery, can't recommend this laptop enough!

Value for money. Only problem I had witb laptop is battery life is not that long but I can understand with that kit inside it's hard to balance both out.

This laptop really packs a punch. Have ran every game on highest settings without any issues. Lots of great features. Only thing I still have yet to do is add another ssd since mine only had a 500gb. Other then that is a great laptop and better machine than many of those much higher priced ones.

I brought this laptop last month, so far so good. Really fast and compact. If I need to mention something negative (no major problem), the fan makes a little noise (constant) and the surface has my fingerprints in all parts (material issue). But, I believe that you gonna enjoy it a lot.

Not very impressed (yet) with this particular brand of computer. My son ordered it to use as his laptop for his freshman year in college. After owning it for only a month, it completely died on him (during Labor Day weekend)...not able to turn on and no evidence of charging. He called the manufacturer and spoke with a customer service rep who suspected a hardware failure, but he had great difficulty communicating with the representative and was not convinced that his information was received accurately. Not great news for a new freshman on campus who had an assignment due the day after Labor Day, no laptop, and no way to access his IT department at school during a holiday weekend to see if they could fix it. I called Amazon to report the failure and they were great! They not only provided a $300 refund for the inconvenience, they sent a replacement out which he received the Wednesday after Labor Day. I sent the defective one back to Amazon. So far, all is well with the replacement, but if he experiences another similar failure we will definitely be buying a different brand.

No issues with packaging, or the notebook working on arrival. It is quiet and runs cool for typical usage and I have yet to hear the fans kick in. Back light screen bleed is a little noticeable on mine, but nothing major. It came with 2 x 8GB of DDR4 2666hz RAM and a single 512GB m.2 SSD. I have added myself a thin 2.5" WD 2TB sata ssd as additional storage and there is a spare m.2 slot as well. For the price, this is one of the best value gaming laptops out there in late 2019. Very happy with my purchase.
