The device centers on an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 GPU. It carries 32 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD, housed in an 18-inch chassis designed for gaming workloads.
Key specifications include a 1600p IPS panel running at 165 Hz refresh rate. The system also integrates a large 92 Wh battery to support extended mobile use during gameplay sessions.
Pricing is set at €2,799 in the Eurozone. Acer lists the model on its official stores for France and the UK, though exact availability windows remain unconfirmed beyond current European sales.
The broader Helios Neo lineup will eventually offer configurations with an Intel Core Ultra 7 270HX Plus chip and higher-tier NVIDIA RTX 5080 graphics. These variants are expected to launch in Australia and North America later this year.
