If you're looking for a thin and powerful gaming laptop then this Acer is a surprisingly good offering with some really neat features, good quality speakers and some serious gaming power under the hood.

You get fast gaming performance, a slim and light metal chassis, and pretty decent battery life for a gaming laptop. Then there's the Turbo button, which provides hassle-free GPU overclocking with a single button press. Cooling is good as well, and that's topped off by a wide selection of I/O ports, including Thunderbolt 3, HDMI, and Mini DisplayPort outputs. Of course, I'd say these things are more or less what people expect from a high-end gaming laptop in 2019, so even if the Predator Triton 500 doesn't particularly impress in any one area, it still manages to check off most of the right boxes, which is pretty good in my books. At S$3,198, it is competitively priced for its specifications, so it's got things nailed down on the pricing front as well. If you're in the market for a portable gaming laptop, you wouldn't be remiss to give the Predator Triton 500 a look.

Nvidia has recently updated its energy-saving Max-Q chips. The Predator Triton 500 from Acer is one of the first laptops to be equipped with a matching Super GPU. Read our review to find out about the performance offered by this high-end model.

If you can afford it, we can see no reason to opt for anything else. Admittedly the screen, though fast, is the infinitesimally disappointing, but what Acer has managed to squeeze into the slimline form of the Predator Triton 500 is nothing short of remarkable.

Apart from that, the laptop is pretty much the same unit as last year, so if you have the top tier unit from back then, it would make no sense upgrading to this device. However, if you are going after the Triton 500, upgrading from an older machine, definitely look for this year’s model, if it’s available in your region. Also, don’t forget to check the Lenovo Legion 7 (15), which has pretty much the same hardware, but offers much better cooling, thanks to its vapor chamber.

The Acer Predator Triton 500 delivers outstanding gaming performance thanks to its fearsome internals and buttery-smooth 300Hz G-Sync screen. Better yet, it pulls it off in an incredibly portable form factor. Just don't leave your charger at home.

The Acer Predator Triton 500 impresses me more than any other laptop I’ve touched. It’s incredibly portable, more powerful than any lightweight rivals, and looks gorgeous. The high-contrast 300Hz G-Sync screen makes any game buttery-smooth. The Core i7-10750H pairs perfectly with Nvidia’s high-performance GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q for gaming. Acer also loaded this notebook with everything you could ask for, including plenty of ports and wireless connectivity.

Still the Triton 500 is a gaming laptop worth owning. You can get similarly priced systems from Razer, MSI and Alienware, which also perform well, but the Triton 500 holds its own, thanks to an ambitious screen and all-around solid specs. If you're looking to spend somewhere between $1,700 and $2,600 for a gaming laptop, the Triton 500 might be the right system, with the right design, at the right price.

On a first look, the 2020 Predator Triton 500 is merely a hardware bump of the 2019 model, with 10th gen processor, Nvidia Super graphics, and a 300 Hz screen. But it actually improves on a few other aspects, with a slightly revamped keyboard that now offers per-key RGB control, a cleaner exterior design with fewer branding elements, better-optimized performance profiles, and improved thermals. Some of the best thermals in the class, for that matter. However, Acer still needs to price this competitively in order to make it a viable option in its premium segment and make buyers look past its quirks.
