The second biggest con is that the HDMI port connects directly to the 3060. This is very irritating if you're used to typing on a normal layout keyboard like me, it will take some practice.Ģ. They've also shortened the Right Shift key to allow for full-sized arrow keys. Acer has squeezed an entire numpad into the keyboard, and has thus pushed useful keys like Home and End and Delete to various corners. The battery life when not using the 3060 is not bad, around 4-5 hours.ġ. The laptop by itself is not very heavy and it fairly OK to carry around.ħ. The packaging is also very premium in feel.Ħ. It's not overly 'gamery' but still looks powerful and performant. I personally like the general look and feel of the device. Acer's built-in PredatorSense application for controlling the fans and lights worked very smoothly for me.ĥ. The I/O selection is sufficient, and the Ethernet port is a plus.Ĥ. The boot times are fantastic - it goes from cold start to a responsive Windows desktop in under 4 seconds.ģ.

However it will still heat up the immediate area around it.Ģ. It appears that the cooling system is also able to keep up.
Predator ph315 53 1080p#
I've tested Dark Souls III, Desperados III, Dyson Sphere Program and KSP with full graphics mods, and they've all been consistently above 90FPS at full 1080p ultra settings on the laptop display and a solid 60FPS on my external monitor. Performance-wise, I think it's amazing both the CPU and GPU are top-tier.


I decided to review this product partly because of the current situation in the silicon industry and partly because it's a pretty major purchase for anyone to make.ġ. 2 years ago Decent product for the current market.
