Bought it at 70k.
This is a 60Hz display model not to be confused with the international version (144Hz).
I would have preferred a longer battery backup.
All in all a good purchase.

Update: For people complaining about heating issues/thermal throttling. Just do some research and underclock the processor (-0.140V works for me).

My verdict:
1.CPU
The Acer Predator Helios 300 2018 comes with an 8th generation Core-i5 CPU (83000H) which is about 20% more powerful than the previous 7th generation i7(7700H) . This is a really powerful CPU and will be able to push performances to its limits. Well what I will recommend is try core undervolting to bring down temperatures, improve performance and increase battery life.
2.GPU
The GPU is also super powerful. You get a GTX 1060 6GB with 6 GB of dedicated GDDR5 VRAM which will r...

Decent specs for a decent price.
1. Good build quality and finish.
2. Good performance.
3. Screen is 60hz but its an ips display so colours are nice and accurate. Brightness is good too for indoors.
4. keyboard is backlit,only red lighting though. When connected to power supply backlight is always on. looks good.
5. speakers are decent. headphone jack gives you the options to select from aux,headphone,mic,etc. supports Dolby digital.
6. Those who are saying about right click lag is true...

This laptop is a beast ,it delivers a very amazing performance with it's combination of i5 8th gen and gtx 1060 but the only drawback is it's battery,the battery is very poor in terms of gaming. It's the best gaming laptop in the market available now at that price point.
I will rate this laptop 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 but I will give just only 🌟🌟 to the Flipkart plus delivery service ,it took 13 days to deliver.

Great laptop, got it for 75,000 during bbd sale, which is nice price for it, battery is okay, speakers are loud and good but lacks bass as it doesn't have any sub-woofers, hardware combination is excellent better than i7 8th in my opinion as heat management was designed for i7 7700hq and won't be able to handle new i7, BTW i5 8300h is better than i7 7700hq....
Screen is also great, an IPS panel 60hz...

Mind blowing! But...But...But..only the performance.Let me give the overall review of this product and whether you should buy it or not. It will be bit long but an honest one. Let me start from the beginning. I bought this laptop for Rs 73990. Received the product after 2 f***ing weeks, yes, you heard that right. Product was well packed but the outer seal of the box was broken to replace the charger with that of an Indian variant(The charger is of decent quality but it doesn't have Acer brand...

It's a monster as gaming laptop but where it lacks is it's display, it's a RGB display with 60 frame rate. I found frame drops at several times while playing Farcry 4. Then the heating issue, the panel above F keys literally heats a lot. you can't put ur finger more than 5 seconds there after playing 4 half an hour.

Got it for 59,550 after hdfc cashback and exchange 10,500 on discount price of 75,000. So pretty sweet deal. For 60,000, it is a beast. Some points:
1) Intel i5 8300h is much more compatible with geforce 1060 (check bottleneck.com). So awesome graphics and cpu combo.
2) Design and control of fans etc is perfect with predator sense.
3) Played Witcher 3 Ultra High settings, was a breeze.

Now some Cons:
1.) Felt the hinge to be a bit weak.
2.) Heat coming off the exhaust on the back, so a bi...

I ordered this laptop on 11th oct and flipkart delivered it on 20th oct. Actually I have to go pune flipkart hub to receive it. Then when I unboxed it, outer box seal was open. I opened inside box which was sealed. But when I tried to register it on acer site it's showing already registered. I've no idea what's going on. Either product is used or replaced I don't know.
Edit: Flipkart did replacement because of warranty issues which I was facing. Thanks to flipkart customer care service.

except battery life everything is excellent.
