宏碁掠夺者 Helios Neo 18 (PHN18-71) 评测–这台巨兽是我们最喜欢的大屏幕游戏笔记本电脑的新成员
Source: Laptopmedia CN
如果你需要一台大屏幕笔记本电脑,但又不想花太多钱,宏碁掠夺者 Helios Neo 18(PHN18-71)是市场上为数不多的可能解决方案之一。与宏碁掠夺者 Helios 18(PH18-72)相比,这款产品在硬件和功能方面并没有削减多少。散热几乎一样(两块金属板略小,CPU 风扇是塑料的),设计几乎一样,输入设备很棒,机箱刚性也不错。PHN18-71 较低的价格得益于 CPU 和 GPU 的选择。如果您不需要那么高的处理能力,您可以购买配备 55W 第 14 代酷睿 i5 或酷睿 i7 CPU 的设备,而顶级显卡则是 140W GeForce RTX 4070。可选的酷睿 i9-14900HX 无论负载如何都能维持较高的时钟频率,GeForce RTX 4070 也是如此,在游戏半小时后仍能保持 ~2610 MHz。升级能力很强–两个 SODIMM 和两个 M.2 插槽。此外,还为内存条和 NVMe 驱动器提供了大量散热垫,这就是我们所说的注重细节。端口选择方面,有两个 Thunderbolt 4 连接器、HDMI 2.1 和一个 MicroSD 读卡器,看起来与时俱进。迅捷的 1600p 165Hz IPS 显示屏(AUO B180QAN01.1 (AUOEB95))非常适合游戏或工作。由于采用了我们的 “设计与游戏 “配置文件,这款无 PWM 的显示屏不仅拥有 100% sRGB 和 99% DCI-P3 覆盖率,而且色彩准确度极高。这使笔记本电脑成为玩游戏、色彩敏感型工作或内容创作的通用工具。全尺寸 4 区 RGB 键盘和超大触摸板手感舒适。电路板背光可通过 PredatorSense 应用程序进行控制,该程序还提供多种功能,如电源预设、不同的 GPU 模式和高级系统监控。电池续航时间不长,但考虑到大显示屏和强大的硬件,这也在意料之中。宏碁掠夺者 Helios Neo 18(PHN18-71)作为一款 18 英寸机型来说并不算昂贵,但它提供了良好的散热解决方案、功能强大的硬件、色彩精确的 1600p IPS 显示屏(像素响应时间快)和 MUX 开关。

Review of Acer Predator Helios Neo 18: Balancing Cost and Performance in a Large Form Factor
Source: Mezha EN English EN→zh-CN
Indeed, truly large gaming laptops are unlikely to be the top sellers overall. However, this niche exists and continues to thrive. Two years ago, the 17-inch standard stopped being the largest available option, as many manufacturers added an extra inch. This has made already barely portable laptops even larger. Such a solution has its strengths and weaknesses. In today’s review, we’ll take a closer look at these along with the Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 gaming laptop.

The Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 is the most affordable 18-inch laptop available with 2024-level specs, and although some corners were cut in order to keep costs low, Acer didn't sacrifice functionality or ergonomics on this series. They also implemented good inputs, plenty of ports, and a beautiful IPS display, as well as made sure this laptop offers plenty of performance and alright cooling for a mid-tier hardware configuration.

Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 (PHN18-71) review – This Beast is Our New Favorite Big-Screen Gaming Laptop
Source: Laptop Media English EN→zh-CN
If you need a big-screen laptop but don’t want to spend too much money on it, the Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 (PHN18-71) is one of the few possible solutions on the market. Compared to the Acer Predator Helios 18 (PH18-72), not much has been cut down here in terms of hardware and functions. The cooling is almost the same (the two metal plates are slightly smaller and the CPU fan is plastic), the design is almost identical, the input devices are great, and the chassis rigidity is good. The lower price of the PHN18-71 is achieved thanks to the CPU and GPU options. You can get a device with a 55W 14th Gen Core i5 or Core i7 CPU if you don’t need so much processing power and the top graphics card is the 140W GeForce RTX 4070.

Hands on: Acer Helios 18
Source: Techradar English EN→zh-CN
Those looking for a desktop replacement have a great option with the Acer Helios 18 and a surprisingly affordable one at that. The starting price is less than $2,000 and it comes with top-notch specs and display, great port selection, a keyboard with the WASD keys featuring MagKey 3.0, and more. Its design takes advantage of RGB lighting to give it an even more unique and lovely aesthetic.

Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 hands-on review: powerful puzzler
Source: Stuff TV English EN→zh-CN
Acer hasn’t revealed which countries will be getting which specs, or exactly what they’ll cost; I only know Europe will be first in line in February, with prices starting from €2199. The US will follow in March, from $1550. That gulf in price suggests North America will be getting a lower entry-level model, while Europeans will start with faster internals. Either way, it’ll be a tough sell compared to discounted 2023 models with the same graphics cards.

80% Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 review: A big gaming laptop with a smaller price
Source: Laptop Mag English EN→zh-CN
I love me a gorgeous display, and while the Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 doesn’t satisfy all of my needs, a whopping 18-inch screen offered at such an affordable price relative to its gaudy competitors is an impressive feat. Top that off with powerful performance and a comfortable keyboard; you’ve got the makings of a great gaming laptop. However, if you like what you see and you’re willing to go down a couple of inches, I highly recommend the Helios Neo 16. It may be nearly identical, but that gap in display color can make all the difference when playing video games. Despite that, the Predator Helios Neo 18 is a killer entry in Acer’s portfolio of big, bad motherlaptops.

78% Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 review: A huge gaming laptop for a small price
Source: PC World English EN→zh-CN
Acer’s Predator Helios Neo 18 shows the benefits of a big-screen laptop that can be delivered at a slim price tag. Though sold for just $1,499.99, the Neo 18 provides excellent performance, a huge display, lots of connectivity, and an attractive design. A lack of portability is the true price paid for the Neo 18’s perks, as it’s even heavier and thicker than some 18-inch alternatives, and the battery didn’t hold out for long even in less demanding circumstances. Still, the Neo 18 is a great pick if you’re looking for a semi-portable alternative to a gaming desktop.

Hands on: the Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 AI is a strong second step for Acer's Neo gaming laptop line
Source: Techradar English EN→zh-CN
A new entry into Acer's 'Neo' laptops, the Acer Predator Helios Neo 18 AI is essentially the recently-announced Helios 18 AI, but with some minor design tweaks and a lower entry price. Based on my time with it, it's a strong desktop replacement system that offers plenty of bang for your buck - just don't expect to take it out of the house often, as it's far from portable.
