Acer’s more affordable but still premium gaming laptop offering, the Predator Helios Neo 16, gets a model refresh for 2024 and it’s now available in Malaysia.
For this year, the Helios Neo 16 is equipped with a 14th-gen Intel Core processor, up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 and a slightly revised exterior design. The graphics on the lid are more simple and stealthy this time.
Starting in 2023, the Predator Helios line has gone upmarket, almost doubling its price tag, so the Predator Helios Neo now takes the reigns as the most affordable of laptops under the Predator line, which its specs are already geared for upper mid-range gaming performance. It’s more than enough to run the latest AAA games at medium or high settings.
There are more affordable solutions to gaming laptops, the Acer Nitro line are placed a lower price range and still can do decent gaming. But if you have to get a Predator laptop, the Neo 16 is a good place to look at first.
