ACER'S NEWEST GAMING LAPTOP; THE PREDATOR 21X
The first thing you notice when looking at the Predator
21X is its size; It is huge, and with that size comes a massive weight
of 8KG. The device is considered a portable desktop rather a laptop because of
its size. The Predator 21X features a 21-inch curved display, 2560 by 1080
resolution. Yes, a curved display laptop. Acer noted that it is the first
display of its kind on any laptop and it sits flush when the laptop is closed.
This laptop isn't the best looking; not even close as a fact. The predator 21X
lands more on the rough side; with protruding black and silver edges and a
gaudy blue dragon stock graphic slapped above the keyboard; a mockup of
a military laptop in action movies.
But then again, this device wasn't designed to be the most beautiful,
but instead a gaming warhorse. The Predator 21 X features two GeForce GTX 1080
X graphics cards linked with Nvidia’s SLI tech, a brand-new seventh-generation
Intel Core i7 processor, four DDR4 slots for up to 64GB of RAM, and up to four
512GB solid state drives, in the event you need unearthly data transfer speeds.
Two of those drives can also be NVMe PCIe SSDs (five times faster than standard
SATA drives), thanks to updated interface specifications. The standard hard
drive configuration on the Predator 21 X will be 2TB. There’s Tobii
eye-tracking built in, a mechanical keyboard with customizable backlight
options, and the numeric keypad flips over to transform it into a touchpad.
There are also four speakers and two subwoofers, for outsize sound performance,
and five cooling fans.
The Acer Predator
21 X gaming laptop is surely an exceptional, well-engineered gaming device to
hit the markets, but this exotic laptop comes with at a great cost. This laptop
is available for purchase at a whopping $8,999 from retailers in the U.S.

Interesting device; it no doubt is a power house, but it's physical appearance completely sucks! Truly, the specs are mind-blowing, but, to be honest, I would never invest in a device like this simply because of its appearance, and the fact that day-to-day portability would be a challenge. Just my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteIt's ugly and big lol, but like you said it wasn't designed with beauty in mind but more along the lines of what it can bring to your gaming experience. I personal wouldn't spend $8,999 on it but I'm sure hardcore gamers will!!!
