We got out first look at Acer's shiny new toy
so it’s still pretty thick and hefty. But it's thinner and lighter than Acer’s other gaming laptops so if you’re looking for one to travel with you, it’s a good one to consider.
Acer hasn’t shared all the configurations yet, but it has revealed that it will be powered by 13th Gen Intel Core processors, maxing out on the i9, and will boast up to an RTX 4070 GPU, up to 32GB DDR5 RAM, and up to 2TB storage. I didn’t get a chance to test out the unit’s performance though, and there’s no mention of battery life as of yet.
Because its release is still a long ways off, the configurations and respective prices aren't available yet. Acer has, however, revealed that the base configuration here will start at $1,799.99 / €2,299, or about AU$2,700 in Australia.Seeing as the Acer Predator Triton 16 isn't slated for release until September, there are a lot details Acer hasn't shared yet.
What I do know is that it's poised to be Acer's new entry in the thin and light gaming laptop market. Mind you, this isn't going to compete with the thinnest and lightest 16-inch non-gaming laptops. What Acer just means here is that as far as gaming laptops go, it's more portable. It's at least the thinnest and lightest of Acer's Predator line, which makes it a good choice for fans who need a relatively svelte gaming machine.
Though it's a refresh of the Triton 300 SE line, it's also a slightly more premium machine with great design features like a very accessible microSD reader, a fingerprint reader, and a mode toggle button, as well as a customizable RGB-lit Predator logo. And the 16-inch WQXGA with 500 nits of brightness and a 240Hz refresh rate looks absolutely gorgeous.Social Links NavigationMichelle Rae Uy is the Computing Reviews and Buying Guides Editor here at TechRadar.
