Acer Predator Triton 300 SE

The Acer Predator Triton 300 SE: a laptop that promises high-performance gaming in a compact, 14-inch package. However, its build quality feels outdated compared to the competition, and it suffers from bloatware issues. Despite this, it delivers respectable performance across the board, particularly when running with an RTX 3060 GPU. But is sacrificing speed for portability worth the premium price tag of $1500?

Dell XPS 13 9340
