Pros and cons
According to our laptop expert
- You can play demanding games at 60 fps, add graphic mods, and stream your gameplay in 4K with the RTX 4080 video card, the i9 processor, and 32GB RAM.
- On the 2TB SSD, you can install about 40 games of 45GB on average.
- The 250Hz 3K Mini-LED IPS panel provides a sharp image and displays vibrant colors and smooth movements.
- We recommend at least an RTX 4090 video card for running demanding graphic packs or large games in 4K ultra settings.
- Due to the 2.7kg weight, this laptop is less easy to take with you in your backpack or laptop bag.

Enjoy super fast and razor-sharp gameplay with the Acer Predator Helios 16 (PH16-72-981U) 16-inch gaming laptop. The 14th generation Intel Core i9 processor, the 32GB DDR5 RAM, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 video card allow you to play the most demanding games without slowing down.

This way, you add more dimension to your games and play them at high frame rates. You can even play at esports level in QHD or 4K settings. The 2TB SSD lets you store these packages, your games, and other media. This combines speed and an extra large storage space without an extra hard drive.
