Reviews for the Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 PTN16-51, Ultra 9 185H
Source: Laptop Mag

The Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 may not offer the fastest gaming or general performance in the mid-range gaming category, but it offers enough to meet the needs of most people at that price range. I’m not sure an esports professional would opt for the Predator Triton Neo 16 over a gaming laptop with better-optimized thermals, but for most gamers and content creators, it’s certainly sufficient. Where the Triton Neo 16 shines is its high-quality 240Hz IPS display and slick, AI-powered webcam. It’s also got Acer’s solid build quality and a chassis sleek enough to fit in at the office or in class without raising too many “gaming laptop” flags. It also features decent battery life, which can get through a few hours of work when away from an outlet, making it a solid choice for STEM students. And if you can find the Triton Neo 16 on sale, it is a worthy bargain. But if you’re looking for a better gaming laptop value, consider the Dell G16 (7630) instead.

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.
