Predator Triton 16 Gaming/Creator Laptop | 13th Gen Intel i7-13700H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 | 16" WQXGA 240Hz G-SYNC Display | 16GB DDR5 | 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD | Killer WiFi 6E | PT16-51-76XZ

During normal usage with power modes set to "Best power efficiency" or "Balanced" and the fan on "Quiet" or "Balanced," the laptop remains extremely quiet. Thanks to its advanced lithography-based chip, energy consumption is remarkably low, with minimal performance impact from reduced voltage. Even after gaming, temperatures remain exceptionally low. The main drawbacks are the limited port selection and soldered RAM. However, as long as you manage your workload efficiently—avoiding excessive multitasking during intensive tasks—performance remains stable. The lack of ports can be mitigated with a USB dock featuring HDMI and RJ45 Ethernet. Overall, this laptop is a solid choice if the price aligns with your budget.

I really like this laptop—it performs well and meets my expectations overall. The only drawback is that it doesn’t include a wired network adapter; it relies entirely on Wi-Fi. While this works for most tasks, I’m unsure if Wi-Fi alone will provide the stability needed for competitive gaming.

This thing is a beast! It's a great gaming laptop and the build quality is excellent. It has the current i9 Ultra AI cpu and a 4070 GPU so it's lightning quick. With 64 gb of RAM built-in it handles everything you can throw at it. It does get a bit noisy, and I'd have preferred the USB ports and power jack were put elsewhere just for convenience. But the screen is fantastic and it's a nice-looking machine with its metal shell.

** Returned bad computer but seller didn't issue a full refund-Don't buy ** I recently purchased the Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 with an RTX 4060 GPU and 16GB of soldered RAM for just under $1100 to replace my aging 2018 Asus Rog FX504. My priorities were a decent battery life (7–8 hours) for app development and casual gaming—and while the machine delivers in some areas, it falls short in others. The Good • Strong performance – Handles compiling, schoolwork, and most games well. • Nice screen & keyboard – Comfortable typing experience and good display quality. • MUX switch support – Allows switching to integrated graphics for battery savings. The Bad 1. Battery Life Disappointment – Out-of-the-box, it barely reaches 3 hours under normal use. Even after adjusting settings (lowering brightness, optimizing power consumption, and enabling eco mode), I could only push it to 6–8 hours under very light use—far from the advertised performance. 2. Crackling Speakers – Audio crackles and pops, particularly on YouTube videos. No fixes so far. 3. Awful Webcam – Somehow worse than my 2018 laptop’s camera. A blurry, grainy mess. 4. RAM Limitation – 16GB is soldered and non-upgradable, with usage consistently at 80–90%, limiting long-term performance. This wasn't a deal breaker when I was looking at it, but after 3 weeks of use, it is not optimized well. Final Verdict Overall, while the Acer Predator Triton Neo 16 had the potential to be great in terms of performance and build quality, it was undermined by terrible componets: the underwhelming battery, problematic speakers, and terrible camera have lead me to returning it—especially when similar models with better features are available for just a bit more money.

Very happy with this laptop, great performance and value, very easy to add extra storage as well. The Predator application (which allows for the overclocking of the CPU) could use some work though as it stops working fairly consistently and laptop will need to be rebooted in order for software to begin working again.

Powerful, easy to use, clear screen, fast, long battery life, quick charging, great heat resistance and cooling fans. Quite when the fans are on anything but full speed and worth every dollar.

Pros -Great cpu, gpu power performance to price ratio if on sale within the 799$ range or less. -Chassis feels sturdy and high quality. Cons -Intel chips still provide mediocre battery life compared to AMD equipped laptops, from full charge to almost 0 can net around 5 hours of standard web browsing/video streaming @ 30% screen brightness eco mode. -Memory is not upgradable -Slightly heavier and bulky compared to competing 14inch gaming laptops. razer, asus rog g14 I recommend to spend a little more if you can find Asus Rog g14 2023 model is sometimes goes on sale for around 1000$ through best buy. Will provide much better battery life around 8 hours, smaller and lighter profile, memory is upgradable, better screen and rtx 4060...just better value overall.

Getting used to everything this laptop could do and what I needed to do in order for it to work at its best has been a really fun journey, I imagine there are better laptops out there for nicer prices but I'm not at all disappointed with this laptop and won't be looking to replace it for what seems to be a long time. It was purchased with the idea in mind it would be able to at the very least run the newest games for atleast the next 4 or 5 years, and as long as it does that, this is a completely reccomendable product.

A good laptop for the stated price.

Me encantó su poder, su calidad de imagen, la volvería a comprar o regalar, por el precio que adquirí $16,800 aprox. a 12 meses sin intereses. Pero si tienen oportunidad de ir por la que tiene la tarjeta 4070 por unos $4000 valdría muchisimo la pena. Ahora la parte de la memoria ram soldada y no expandible es algo fuerte que tomar en cuenta, al menos yo en juegos como Cyberpunk, league of legends, doom eternal, resident evil 4 remake, puede correr con gráficos muy decentes a buenos fps, ya cada quien verá reviews en youtube. Mi sugerencia es que si o sí compren un COOLERPAD porque se calienta bastante, y además compre otro ventilador pequeño en Shein para que este detrás de la laptop dándole, así le prolongas la vida al equipo. Compre otra pantalla con HDMI de 32" así complemento la pantalla pequeña con la que viene. Sin duda es una compra riesgosa porque viene de USA, así que considerenlo, por la garantía. por suerte no me ha pasado nada, y cuando me han dado soporte directamente de windows por algunos drivers que se quedo sin sonido un tiempo, tomaron control remoto de la lap y se los instalaron. Para ese tipo de situaciones si sirve la garantía sencilla.

Muy contento con la compra, corre cualquier juego que tengo sin problema, lo unico a criticar seria el tamaño de pantalla y el teclado que faltan el numérico

Esta laptop no la defino como Gamer porque su tamaño y falta de teclado completo la hace menos funcional, pero sin dura ha podido con todos los juegos que le eh puesto sin problema. Su unico punto débil es que no podrás ampliar la RAM. El display tiene una nitidez bastante aceptable y hay que calibrar un poco los colores para hacerlo mejor. El rendimiento es otro nivel para ser un equipo portátil.

Compré la laptop para mi hermano menor que iba a ingresar a la universidad. Me comentó que empezó a tener problemas con la pantalla de la laptop después de 6 meses y sorpresa, esta mala. Se actualizó windows, sigue igual. Se instala linux para descartar driver malo, sigue igual. Hasta se ven el problema en el bios. Contacte con Acer por soporte y me dicen que no tiene soporte por ser de EEUU el equipo. No comentan el mismo error que yo, y no la compren. No vale la pena.
