Predator Helios 18 AI: The Ultimate AI Gaming Laptop
The Predator Helios 18 AI (PH18-I71) is Acer's flagship gaming laptop at Computex 2026 and the winner of an iF Design Award 2026. Purpose-built for enthusiast gamers and esports competitors in need of top-tier performance, it delivers desktop-level power in a laptop form factor. With up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 290HX Plus, it represents a new class of gaming laptops built for split-second responsiveness, rock-solid FPS, and smart tuning that maintains high performance across an extensive selection of games and apps. For top-notch graphics, it comes with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU to deliver next-level visual fidelity and AI-accelerated performance. The device can be configured with as high as 256 GB of memory and 6 TB of storage, letting competitive gamers push the upper limits of laptop performance while providing room for vast game libraries.
A first-rate display complements the laptop's top-tier system hardware. Its 18-inch Mini LED WQUXGA display renders gamescapes in painstaking detail and clarity, with 1000 nits of brightness in HDR mode and Calman Verified color accuracy with 100% DCI-P3 coverage. As a Dual-Mode Display, it also enables seamless switching between 4K at 120 Hz for stunning visuals and Full HD at 240 Hz for ultra-smooth gameplay.
To keep the system cool under the most demanding workloads, dual 6th Gen Predator AeroBlade 3D Fans each pack in 100 of the world's thinnest metal fan blades at just 0.05 mm. This generation of fan blades also dynamically adjust based on fan speed, enabling the system to deliver a 20% increase in airflow over generic plastic fans. Vector heat pipes and liquid metal thermal grease further enhance thermal efficiency.
The laptop's audio uses Acer's patented Predator Vox technology, a proprietary six-speaker system built for high-fidelity nearfield audio that enhances directionality, clarity, and immersive range. Its internal tube structure improves waveform consistency, enhances projection, and keeps output distortion-free at high volumes.
For fast, stable Wi-Fi connections, Predator Helios 18 AI features Intel Killer DoubleShot Pro technology, combining Intel Killer Wi-Fi 7 BE1750x and Intel Killer Ethernet E5000B to intelligently prioritize the most critical network traffic. Paired with two next-generation Thunderbolt 5 ports, users can enjoy ultra-high bandwidth, lightning-fast data transfer, and seamless connectivity across all high-performance devices. The laptop rounds out its premium design with an array of dynamic RGB lighting and the latest Predator MagKey 4.0 mechanical switches.
Acer Nitro 16: Top Mobile Performance Made Accessible
A value-driven powerhouse, the 16-inch Acer Nitro 16 (AN16-A91) succeeds at making top performance accessible—it is the first Acer gaming laptop to be powered by up to an AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX3D processor. With 2nd Gen AMD 3D V-Cache technology, the CPU delivers top-notch mobile gaming performance, ensuring players stay unstoppable even when unplugged. For high-powered graphics to match, it features up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU.
To maintain top performance, a dual-fan, quad-intake, quad-exhaust cooling system and vector heat pipes keep the Acer Nitro 16 cool. For ultra-smooth, vivid visuals during gameplay, it offers a WQXGA (2560 x 1600) display with 100% sRGB coverage, up to a 240 Hz refresh rate, and as fast as a 3 ms response time. Connectivity is covered by USB4 and Wi-Fi 6E, making it well-suited for streaming games and staying connected on the go.

Optimized for real-time control accuracy, the device pairs seamlessly with Acer devices like the Predator Helios 18 AI and Acer Nitro 16 to stream a user's gaming library, making it ideal for gamers who want more flexibility from their current PC setup and households with multiple users needing to share a single system simultaneously.

Besides a low-latency wired connection, the keyboard can connect via Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz wireless connections, adding flexibility.
The keyboard offers a Tenkeyless (TKL) design that keeps the desk clear and focus tight, a volume roller for intuitive sound control, and per-key programmable RGB backlighting for tailoring aesthetics.
