The Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 with a 16-inch 3200 x 2000 165 Hz display, a 140 W RTX 4070 laptop GPU, and an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor has recorded a steep $400 discount at B&H Photo. As a result, the Predator Triton Neo 16 has now become a solid choice for mid-range buyers on the hunt for a gaming/content creation machine.

Acer announced the Predator Triton Neo 16 in December 2023 with the then-latest Intel Meteor Lake processors, a 16-inch display, and up to an RTX 4070 GPU. Now, eight months after its official unveiling, the Predator Triton Neo 16 has dropped to less than $1,500 at B&H Photo.

The newly discounted price of the Predator Triton Neo 16 is, according to slickdeals, the lowest rate for the machine ever. Based solely on the CPU, GPU, and the screen on offer, the laptop seems like an excellent choice for mid-range gamers.

The Predator Triton Neo 16 on sale is a top-of-the-line configuration featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H CPU, an RTX 4070 GPU, 32 GB of LPDDR5X-6400 memory, and 1 TB of storage. The front of the machine is dominated by a 16-inch 3.2K panel that boasts 100% DCI-P3 coverage, 430 nits of brightness, and Nvidia G-Sync. Finally, the screen also refreshes at 165 Hz.

As evident from the hardware on offer, the Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 should serve both gaming and content creation needs rather well. Our testing of the Core Ultra 9 185H and the RTX 4070 placed both components in the upper ranks of their respective categories. For instance, the RTX 4070 is on par with the RTX 3080 Ti laptop GPU. This means that the GPU will play pretty much any game at or above 60 FPS with high/ultra settings.

Additionally, the laptop has almost all the ports that you need with:

  • One Thunderbolt 4
  • One Type-C with DP and PD
  • Two Type-A ports with one capable of delivering power while the laptop is off
  • A single HDMI 2.1 out
  • A 3.5 mm combo jack

Unfortunately, Acer dropped the ball on including a full-sized or a microSD card reader which would have made the Predator Triton Neo 16 an even better buy for content creators. That said, there are plenty of affordable USB dongles on Amazon that come with the SD card reader.

Finally, rounding the Predator Triton Neo 16 off is a 3-zone RGB backlit keyboard, a 76 Wh battery, and a manageable weight of 2.95 kg.

Long story short, the Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 should suffice for anyone looking for a mid-range gaming machine that can also double as a content creation laptop without breaking the bank.
