The Acer Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs Edition is ambitious and fast, but its 3D screen doesn’t do enough to be consistently impressive, and it’s underwhelming elsewhere too. So, your money will go further with quicker, more conventional notebooks.

Review of the Acer Predator Helios 300. This is the 2022 model with an I7-12700H and a RTX 3070TI GPU. The Acer Predator Helios 300 got a redesign for 2022 and they improved a few things to make it better overall. But of course it's still not perfect! Watch for the full review.

The 2022 Predator Helios 300 is once more a competitive performance/gaming notebook in the mid-tier segment. Acer updated the design, the screen options, the inputs, and the ports, added a 90 Wh battery and a beefed-up thermal module, as well as significantly more powerful specs than on the previous generations. As a result, this laptop is more competent in demanding loads and games, and lasts for longer with daily use on battery. At the same time, the 2022 Helios 300 runs warmer and noisier, still lacks in audio quality, and is no longer as competitively priced as it used to be.
