I think it might be a good idea to start calling out the color space on laptop displays in addition to color accuracy. I looked at a ton of gaming laptops recently and **sooo** many of them are equipped with a "45% NTSC" display, which ...is insane to me (that's ~62% sRGB). Gradients must have all sorts of banding on those displays and I imagine all sorts of other weird color issues. I was shocked when I saw how many manufacturers are using these displays....

Easily the Legion, the software is great too. The Razer's design of exhausting air to the display hinge might be a problem unless they learnt from old Apple on how not to design hinges and it's usually more expensive than the Legion when you match the specs.

[@keerthan7558]

Actually it isn't , it has better thermals (10-15 °C cooler) than the Alienware laptops in most cases and that thing has 4 fans and full damn extension at back for cooling. It's on par with legion and other thicker laptops. Idk how they doing this but it should have been done in their 2021 onward models itself.

[@zocker018_boss]

I personally recommend the Acer Predator Helios 16 (not Neo) this year as an overlooked underdog.

@@keerthan7558 cooling isn't what I'm worried about. It's longevity. Usually air gets exhausted out the side or behind the hinge. The Razer Blade exhausts air into the hinge. It's probably not a problem.

Got my slim 7 few days back with amd+4060+3.2k screen+32gb+1tb & tested battery life & got 10.5hrs. The screen has some minor backlight bleed from all 4 corners compared to my previous macbook pro 13 screen but still great upgrade. Wish it had advanced Optimus like 7i but i will take 10+hrs battery life over Intel crap any day of the week especially in laptops. But omen 16 transcend is a better competitor to slim 7 & in general i guess. Especially with the miniled screen option. The only gripe is performance is not that great as thermal limited & bad keyboard, no 2nd m.2, expensive upgrade options compared to Lenovo. But for 1.7-1.8k that was way better in many aspects compared to most laptops here. How was your experience with backlight bleed on slim 7i? This was 1600p screen so not apples to apples comparison but still. Especially in almost dark room. Ofc in any sort of light it cannot be noticed.

The Inspiron 16 Plus is really more of a mid-range creator laptop with gaming on the side. For the much lower price (compared to the high-end gaming laptops), I think it's a pretty decent buy.

[@handlemonium]

The Asus TUF A16 wasn't in this round up. According to Notebookcheck it has the longest web browsing & video playback (or similar light non-GPU heavy workload) battery life out of all dedicated graphics laptops this year at *12 HOURS!* Though I bet it's more like 8 hours on the "balanced" performance profile at 100% brightness but that's still awesome for a large gaming laptop.

[@solindiegames1999]

Totally agree. Whilst it's great that the Inspiron 16 Plus gets some coverage, it really is more of a great all-rounder that can game. Gaming is definitely not it's focus.

[@harikishan2388]

You are confused with Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 and Predator Helios 16. They are 2 different ones. Neo16 is an all plastic build with lesser specs (eventhough the hardware specs are the same as Helios 16). Where as Helios 16 is an all aluminium build with 240Hz panel, per key LED and is a flagship model from Acer. So at the beginning you listed out that it was Neo 16 used for this test. But at the end while giving those tier ranks you mention it as Helios 16. could you clarify which one is exactly used here?

[@zragon]

That TIer list are very helpful, now, even Laptops have META units.

[@DonutAgain]

Thanks for the comparison. After watching this, I am going to go with Alienware m16. I don't care about portability because I never travel with my gaming laptop. I am using gaming laptop as desktop replacement (with monitor and without moving), so I only need the one with more raw power.

when it comes to the performance of rtx 4070 and 4060 mobile gpus in laptops, there is only a very minimal increase in performance past 90w so the acer nitro 16 with a 91 watt tdp 4070 will definitely outperform the acer predator with a acer predator with a 104 watt tdp 4060

[@reptile6059]

I bought my first high spec laptop which is predator neo 16 . Both the nitro and predator neo are a budget friendly options , so I guess a reduction in build is expected , which still isn't bad .

[@TaxCollectorMatthewTwitch]

Alright, I ususally never comment on videos, but I just wanted to put this out there about the Predator Helios Neo16, I do agree that the keys and typing might be slightly inferior to its competitors in the video, however, you forget to mention the termals on these machines and I will say for the Predator, I tested it with a consistent 86deg celcius average when gaming on a warmer room (without turbo) and low 80 high 70s average in a cooler room / environemnt and let's not forget the 3ms 165hz monitor with the Nvidia G-sync as well, it makes gaming so seamless with no screen tearing at all which you do touch on. The power supply is definitely a big big, which is another con, but another pro for this machine is that the placement for the trackpad placement id argue to be very well place IF you are right handed as when you type on the keyboard you would notice that the tumb can easily move the cursor around to click on things without needing to move you hand too much. Then again these are just small details that might be subjective to toher people. I used to on an MSI 72Leopard Pro and that laptop had one of the best keyboards i've ever used on laptops, it was developed by steelseries, and it is phenomenal. Later market laptops outside of MSI seem to lack that kind of quality however so this is indeed another con for the helio 16. But all in all I just wanted to point out for the price of the machine giving you an RTX4060 with a 165hz monitor 3ms response time, this is a really decent machine built for gaming as well if it comes to budget machines with power. Many modern gaming laptops unfortunately still feature 120hz or 144hz but acer was able to take this one step further and on top of that the termals are fanatstic on this machine as well which you do mention.

[@racerex340]

You got that on a bananas sale, I looked at that same Omen recently and HP had it for "sale" for $1570, although your config w/ 240Hz display and 1TB SSD is currently $1700, and I don't see it cheaper at another retailer, so you shouldn't be using $850 as the comparison price when it's currently being sold for twice that amount. The Omen 17" Intel 13700HX + RTX 4060 is currently on sale for just under $1200, which isn't bad, but worse display and smaller SSD. There is a Omen 16 Ryzen 7840 + 4060 16GB RAM 1TB on sale for $1100, but it can't be customized and only has the 1080p / 165Hz display, not remotely comparable. If you can currently get your hands on a brand new Omen 16 7840HS + RTX 4060 - 16GB RAM/1TB SSD 240Hz 1440p for $849, I'd recommend you buy it, immediately.

@@Dandiego235 The thermals are what you would expect for the most part, with the GPU staying nice and cool and the CPU going nuts. During gaming, it's common to see the CPU at it's thermal throttle limit of 92°C or even 100, but with sufficient cooling and liquid metal repaste it should run cooler. Fan noise is within the acceptable range but pretty loud on max, lower settings are available tho. Also, undervolting is possible but more complicated thanks to Intels lock.

Check out the 14-inch Legion Slim with the OLED screen. It’s the best in the market right now for portability without compromising on gaming horsepower

Should have uploaded this before black friday...

[@thenatous_]

only if m16r1 comes with higher brightness or maybe mini-led / oled options, it would be a better purchase.

Anybody else notice that the new Nitro logo is actually just the left half of the predator logo?...

1:44 Best Build Quality after Razer and Miles better than my 2021 Legion 5 pro i wish i bought this cuz my plastic frame has already cracked as i do up and down regular from my collage to home and throw it on the back along with my monitor so. And oh it has The Best keyboard imo really impressed by their keyboard better than the dell like better feeling one as dell also had similar keyboard but typing feels a bit more laminar compared to others.

Just bought the Lenovo Legion 7 Pro with Ryzen 9 7945hx, rtx 4080, 32 gb ram 5200mhz, 512gb ssd, 16 inch Qhd, 500 nits, 100% srgb for only £1700 down from £2569 on CyberMonday and can't wait to see what it can do. Currently using an Asus Vivobook Pro 15x with 5800h, rtx 3050, 16gb ram and 512gb storage and unfortunately ram is soldered and it's limiting me in certain cases. Hopefully Lenovo will chew through everything that I throw at it, especially if i upgrade the ram to 64

Hp omen 16 Amd 7 vs Legion Slim 5 Amd 7? Any suggestions?

[@varuch1993]

Which one has the best cooling system?

[@imglidinhere]

What about Eluktronics or Sager? :P Pretty sure my Prometheus 16 G2 would dropkick any of those models.

[@StayPeace69]

really want to love lenovo like the others, but i had a bad experience when i bought lenovo legion i7 with RTX 3060, the GPU got broken and i asked the official lenovo customer service on my country and they said they didn’t have the spare parts for their own product, and im stuck with a broken $1000+ laptop:)

[@zocker018_boss]

I hope you can still enjoy your laptop despite its damage. But sadly this shows that no company or brand is safe from bad examples.

[@nitroman2266]

You didn't mention the MSI Stealth 16 Studio

[@SkysTrains]

the dell reminds me of the slim 7 pro x 16", sure it'll game, but its main focus is not gaming, its more for "professionals"

[@Shahpo]

Best value is definitely the Omen if you care about portability. Solid performance and quality for about 1000$ less than the M16 zeph. It also weighs around .3kg less than the legion pro.

[@Danny1024DM]

I completely agree. I found and actually just bought an HP Omen because of it's way better value for what I'm getting compared to the other laptops. I got a Ryzen 7 7840HS, RTX 4060, 1440p 240hz display for just around $849

[@vimalnt]

8:19 ummm sire!! Its an last gen model that ur reviewing. 😅

[@tobfon2416]

Tier list with noise level pls

[@maurizioangelillis9163]

do u know where i can buy Razer laptop in Italy?

[@Mxllowee]

in the portabilty section you should have included battery life otherwise that video was great

[@faetalize]

what is a precision glass touchpad?

[@zacharyhart2279]

I’m doing the Lenovo Legion 7 Pro with the AMD Ryzen and 4090. It should be here… eventually 😊

[@wzk921109]

M3 Pro Mac, you know if Mac can start to run most titles fine, they’d kill most other companies. Thanks for mentioning PSU, I asked for better PSU for years, still, most of them don’t do it.

[@zocker018_boss]

I genuinely feel like this video misses a very important contender, the normal Acer Predator Helios 16 (not Neo). The Helios 16 this year is a very strong contender in my opinion and should have been listed here as well, since both the Acer Nitro and Helios Neo 16 are its budget younger siblings. In terms of build quality, keyboard & trackpad and display it performs better than both other models (even without its Mini-LED screen), so it is a shame that this video misses it. As a proud owner of a Helios 16 I can fully recommend it to anyone who is interested in an affordable and good quality product.

[@mnazas2299]

What version do you have? Because ive heard a lot about that laptop overheating like crazy due to it having a hx processor on such a thin laptop.😊

[@zocker018_boss]

@@mnazas2299 I have the version with a 4080, i9 13900HX, 16 GB RAM and 1 TB SDD, no Mini LED. Temps are quite high for the CPU, without a cooling pad, an own liquid metal application or undervolting you easily reach the thermal throttling limit under high stress.
