The Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 gaming laptop is a well-specced machine featuring a 140 W RTX 4070 Laptop GPU, along with a color-accurate, high-refresh-rate 18-inch IPS display. Although a far cry from portable, the Helios Neo 18 can serve as a great desktop-replacement device.

Gaming enthusiasts who are on the hunt for a desktop replacement laptop with powerful internals will most likely be content with Acer's 18-inch Predator Helios Neo gaming laptop. Thanks to Amazon's recent discount, the laptop can now be purchased for just $1,499.

According to the price-tracking website Camelcamelcamel, the current price for the Helios Neo 18 turns out to be its lowest-ever on the platform, making the deal even sweeter. Further, Amazon also offers free delivery along with a 30-day return policy, which should allow buyers to make their purchase worry-free.

The Predator Helios Neo 18 is a true gaming laptop by every definition. The QHD+ 165 Hz display is excellent for gaming, and its almost 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 gamut makes it ideal for professional creatives, that is if the sub-par contrast level of the IPS panel is to be ignored.

As for performance, the Predator Helios Neo 18 is powered by Intel's i7-14700HX CPU and the RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. Ultrabookreviews reviewed the i9-equipped variant of this model, and the results were satisfactory. The laptop keeps up with similarly specced competitors, which should translate to decent performance for the i7-equipped variant as well. The fans do get a bit loud under sustained loads, while the 3-4 hour battery life is nothing to write home about either.

All in all, the Predator Helios Neo 18 is a decently specced gaming laptop with relatively solid performance, a great 18-inch screen, and a healthy selection of ports. The 16 GB of memory and 1 TB SSD can both be upgraded down the line, so no complaints there either. Amazon's ongoing offer drops the laptop's price down to its all-time low, making it even easier to recommend.
