84.5% Acer Predator Helios 500 (GTX 1070, i7-8750H) Laptop Review | Notebookcheck
Gaming upgrade. Our exclusive review of Acer's massive fella. Equipped with a 45 W CPU and a GTX 1070 the brand-new case contains a true gaming powerhouse. The Helios 500 is the successor to the Helios 300, and while still quite hefty and bulky the new kid on the block is not as sharp-edged anymore.

Acer's Predator Helios 500 squeezes full-fat overclockable GeForce GTX 1070 performance into a 17-inch gaming laptop, but we'd like to see a bit more battery life and chassis polish.

There’s nothing too revolutionary going on here but Acer’s new gaming laptop looks set to be a perfectly capable option at a decent price. Exactly how it stacks up against the competition is something we’ll find out in our full review later in the year.

But all of these good stuff come at a price: the Helios 500 retails from $1,999, which comes up to about RM7,965. It’s a high price to pay, but the gaming laptop’s feature set may justify it. If you’re eyeing to get the Helios 500, it’s expected to be available here in Malaysia very soon.

Ревю на Acer Predator Helios 500 – истински звяр с Intel Core i9-8950HK
Source: Laptop Mag English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Acer Predator Helios 500 ще промени света на гейминг лаптопите. Не само заради използването на най-новото и най-доброто от Intel в лицето на Core i9-8950HK, но също и заради изключително ефективното охлаждане и невероятен дисплей. Можем да определим Lenovo Legion Y920 и HP Omen 17 като директни конкуренти, защото това устройство също разполага с отключен за овърклок процесор и голям и ефективен термален дизайн. Преди да започнем с хвалбите трябва да отбележим, че по принцип харесваме по-леки и тънки устройства с не толкова агресия във външния вид. Клоним към сливащи се с околната среда устройства. Затова добавихме в сравнението MSI GE73VR.

100% Acer Predator Helios 500 (2021) review: A gaming laptop behemoth
Source: Expert Reviews English EN→zh-CN
So, is the Helios 500 the best gaming laptop on the market? Yes. Clearly, the size and weight of the thing must be taken into consideration, as well as the shockingly bad battery life, but in the search for ultimate gaming performance some things have to give. For a not inconsiderable pile of cash, you are getting a superb display, an excellent keyboard and the potential to overclock the hardware to the point where you’ll be able to give a few gaming desktops a run for their money. It’s the irony of cutting-edge engineering that machines built without compromise often demand compromise of their users and the Helios 500 is just one such machine. But if you can put up with the weight, size and double-barrelled power supply, this is a gaming laptop like no other.

With styling your friends will be jealous of and a powerful Intel 11th Gen Core i9 CPU bundled with the latest Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 GPU, the Helios should smash opponents like Thor during a blood rage while hurling Mjollnir at hapless enemies.

80% Acer Predator Helios 500 review: Super powerful, super pricey
Source: Pocket Lint English EN→zh-CN
The Acer Helios Predator 500 is a heavyweight laptop in several ways. It's big and heavy, has just about the best specs you can get in a laptop, and costs an absolute fortune. It's overkill for most people, and not because we think you should all be happy playing games at Full HD at 30 frames per second. A laptop like the Lenovo Legion 7 can get you similar performance for almost half the price, which is kind of mad. The Helios 500 is probably the best fit for those who will try overclocking their laptop's graphics processor, as judging by the thermal performance we see here there's certainly scope for that. It's a bit of a beast.

This 2021 Predator Helios 500 is an impressive performance and gaming laptop. The solid build quality, the miniLED 4K screen option, the competent IO, and the oversized thermal design are the main selling points of this Helios 500 over its counterparts, while at the same time its size and weight, the lack of a MUX switch, and its smaller battery might steer some of you away. All in all, this behemoth is more a desktop laptop than most of the other full-size performance options of this generation, and I'd expect this aspect to weigh in heavily in your final decision.

Acer Predator Helios 500 (PH517-52) - disassembly and upgrade options

Acer Predator Helios 500 (PH517-52) review – puts most gaming laptops on their knees
Source: Laptop Media English EN→zh-CN
In the middle of testing, we figured something out. If you are not a die-hard enthusiast, nor someone that is looking for that extra 1 fps hiding in the corners, then, the Helios 500 might not be the right device for you. It is extremely heavy and clunky for today’s standards and doesn’t offer an awful lot more in terms of performance when compared to more portable laptops like the Lenovo Legion 7 for example. As far as the display options go, you can pick between a 360Hz 1080p IPS panel, and a 120Hz 4K Mini LED screen. They differ massively, but essentially, they let you take advantage of your extremely powerful hardware. We are soon going to update the review with more info about the 1080p option, which was the one we got.
