Reviews for the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 PHN16-72, RTX 4060

80% Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 review: Get ready for best-in-class power
Source: Laptop Mag English
The Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 is a perfect laptop for individuals seeking best-in-class productivity performance as a priority, but that doesn’t mean it ignores its other duties. Its RTX 4060 performance yields some of the highest frames per second when compared to similar laptops, while its bright and colorful display will let you lose yourself in a game’s world. Its battery life leaves much to be desired, while its muddy speaker system and poor trackpad result in us recommending an external headset and mouse.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

Acer's product portfolio also includes tablets that offer portable computing and multimedia capabilities.


80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
