No, as it only weighs 2.4kg and is 19.9mm thin, despite hosting all of that in addition to the 16-inch 16:10 WQXGA display. Talking about the I/O and connectivity story, it hosts a range of dual USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports with Thunderbolt 4, SD card reader, Intell Killer E3100 Ethernet+Killer WiFi 6 AX1650i to keep the transfer speed up and latency low. What’s more, take over the power control curve completely through the PredatorSense software to decide which parts get the juice that they need.

Not only it is on par with the Triton 500 SE, but it also hosts a bigger 17-inch display that can either a 4K MiniLED 120Hz panel with VESA Display HDR1000 for absolute visual fidelity or going really fast through a 360Hz FHD variant with a 3ms response time. Additionally, it also packs more ports that include HDMI 2.1, mini-DP 1.4, Thunderbolt 4, USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, and the latest connectivity cards.

Aside from the super high-end stuff, the Predator Helios 300 is also here to take care of the mid-range budgets that start from prices that are as low as half of the former 2 machines.
