Display: Good enough (QHD 165hz on RTX 4070 variant) Keyboard: Good I/O: Good CPU: Good for the price (R9 7940H, a Chinese exclusive only available in Asia) GPU: Good enough (RTX 3070 ti laptop sales if available)

What would you recommend between this acer nitro 16 but it has a i7, against a Asus TUF F17 4050? The specs seem similar, These are my only options since my acer predator broke. GREAT video btw

Never recomend this SCAM Acer brand. Low reliability, motherboard over after 3 months, bring to their unskilled repair service, off again after the warranty gg nice scam. Never buy Acer!!
Acer is doing a great job on their more budget friendly gaming laptops. Especially keeping those temps down. I bought the Acer predator Helios neo 16 a couple weeks ago and love it. 13th gen i7, 1Tb, 16gb ddr5 and the RTX4060. The gpu and cpu stay really cool and the extra m.2 slot is nice. I added a 2TB Samsung 980 pro and also upgraded the ram to 32gb. The display gets bright! For daily usage I keep it 50% and that’s plenty bright.

@@niazahmed9535 I’m no expert on tech value. I forget the exact channel on here that has a website that rates these laptops on their value per dollar but I thinks it’s jarrods tech. I will say some of the features on the predator Helios neo aren’t exactly the same in every region. Like some with the same cpu, you, storage and memory come with a 720p camera instead of a 1080p like mine. And some don’t come with a microSD card reader like mine. But mine doesn’t have all the graphics on the lid or the light bar on the back. I was limited to Best Buy only because that where I have my credit card from. 12 months no interest. So I went with the best I could get for the amount I wanted to spend at the time I wanted it at Best Buy. It is a awesome laptop and I’m very happy with it. Upgradable without voiding warranty and 1440p 165hz screen.

@@JayP7.62 oh that's great man and is it a good choice to go with acer? I mean I thought of going for Asus rog but at this value this is the only lap that has Rtx 40 series and i7 13th gen and does this lap has any negative affect ? Coz you've used it for a week or so now
I'm genuinely confused as to why there aren't that many reviews on the Helios 16 and 18 yet and the Helios Neo and Nitro already got refused
They also have the Intel Core variant which is available in Asia Pacific markets particulary Vietnam.
I like the way it looks personally. If it was a 4060 I’d say wow, great deal. Maybe $900 is a more appropriate price

@@user-ms9db8hv9dI've watched lot's of comparisons between 4060 and 4070 and the gap is not huge to justify let's say for example a 100$ difference
just picked up the g14 with the rx 6800s for $1249, its an absolute steal imo
Can the USB C ports on the back be used for charging?
What is the max capacity of each storage?
Any link to the Intel core i7 variant would be very much appreciated.
Hey, does this supports usb c charging?
I’d recommend going for Asus’s 2022 G14 rn. In BB, they’re currently selling the 6700s model on clearance, while the upper model 6800s is also on a sale.

Hi, the answer is according to your usage. G5 will give you a better gaming performance than the Nitro 5 but Nitro 5 will give you better CPU performance. If gaming is your priority then go with G5 cuz in the Nitro 5 your GPU will bottleneck your CPU. If gaming isn't your main priority and you want a better CPU then go with Nitro 5
For 999 there's a deal running rn, same model, Nitro 5 but with the 3070ti which is miles better than the 4050

That's the thing bro. It's not possible to get poor battery life out of a config like this. It's 100% something to do with the software/power profile tested on or may be the dGPU getting woken up. If one laptop with a 7940HS + 1200p display + 90Whr battery can manage 10+ hrs of battery, all other laptops with a similar config has to be around the same ballpark. It's simple maths really, TOTAL Battery capacity/total power consumption.
Wow G14 @ 799.99 would have been a HOT deal, unfortunately it's $1399.99

Should I get this instead of the Asus Zephyrus 15 2022 model. I know this one has a 4070, but besides that, do you think the Asus would be worth it. The Asus is more expensive though, by about 700 dollars or so

$700 difference for the same spec?! damn... you know you can save that $700 for your future replacement laptop. But I guess it all depends on your preference... Meanwhile in user perspective: Zephyrus build quality is way ahead than Nitro, and other thing such as screen quality, ssd, and wifi, I guess zephyrus is also win in that area. This year Nitro may bewitched alot of people because the design is so slick and cool... but inside, Nitro will always be the more budget option.
No deal for this one in Canada. The only one I found was with Ryzen 7 7735(inferior CPU) for CAD $1900 plus tax! Does Acer think Canadians are stupid?

Same, this two laptops are my option. Its hard to choose if what is the best laptop
The problem with Acer laptops is that they have absolutely garbage hardware apart from the processors, unless that changes in the past 2 years. Bought a Nitro in 2020 and the keyboard failed just after warranty. Acer service center say this is a common problem with that unit. All in all it's a solid package but if something fails, good luck. Dropped a like on the video!

Sadly its a budget laptop even though the price is super high. I'd say their predator neo would be considered their "midrange" and triton more high end.
So this laptop sounds as loud as ribbiting frogs ! Got it ! 👍😂😂😂🐸🐸🐸🐸
same as neo 16
Finally, a laptop with a mid-range Ryzen Phoenix CPU. Thought AMD forgot to release their mid-range laptop chips like last year.
build quality is top quality its better to buy a machine thats durable that gonna last for easy 10 years like thats the standard dell is turbo trash hp is trash acer well no expectations MSI is basically asus and asus is basically MSI probably no difference gigabyte is a gamble pretty much everywhere by default lenovo i still use my since 2016 it better continue to be flawless till 2027 eluctronics XMP dont know and i mess with the name and confuse for DDR mode alienware if dell wasnt a problem honestly i recommend skipping this generation and wait till 8gb of Vram is the lowest option which should be soon since 3050 is a joke edit: forgot to mention razer razer is also trash they are premium wish products that look like replicas of each other
it's 4-macbook-air-thick, lol
Indian market is the worst everything is costly and newer laptops never will be available for us

There is no way a 7640HS - one of the most efficient x86 6 core CPU with a 1200p display and 88Whr battery can get that poor of a battery life. The Asus TUF A16 with 90Whr battery and 7940HS managed 12hrs of web browsing/video playback as per NotebookCheck Review. The battery life tests are always so mixed because it's definitely some or the othe software in the background that prevents the CPU from idling. If it's a Ryzen H/HS CPU (not 7045HX series) and a decent 70Whr+ size battery. You are bound to get great battery life. If not, then there is something wrong with the software.

It'll be nice if someone would make a thin and light student laptop available globally with a Ryzen 7940U. As someone with a gaming laptop, I was pleasantly surprised by how well the 6800H iGPU (RDNA 2 680M) handles games on battery. Being a gaming laptop, the battery life still sucks when gaming but much better than gaming on the dedicated Nvidia GPU.
