If you prioritize performance for tasks like 3D rendering, machine learning, or gaming and don't mind a higher price and less portability, the Lenovo Legion 7i Pro is a better choice with a stronger processor, more memory, and a more powerful graphics card. However, if you prefer a more budget-friendly option that is lighter and easier to carry around, the Acer Predator Triton 300 could be the more suitable choice, though with less computing power and a lower screen resolution. Both have good build quality, cooling systems, and are suitable for gaming, but the Lenovo has better screen quality and a significantly longer battery life. Give Feedback

The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i is very good for general use, while the Acer Predator Triton 300 is good.
The Lenovo Legion 7i Pro is noted as very good for general use largely due to its superior main processor, double the RAM, and higher screen resolution which enhances multitasking and visual clarity respectively, whereas the Acer Predator Triton 300, while still offering good general use, has lesser RAM and a lower resolution screen attributing to its ranking.

The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i has a better screen than the Acer Predator Triton 300 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, laptops like the Acer Predator Triton 300 and Lenovo Legion Pro 7i are valued for their high resolutions and panel types that provide crisp, bright displays, with the Lenovo Legion offering superior brightness and clarity that enhances the user experience.

Mike Wobker | December 2020
"In our particular review configuration, the Acer Predator Triton 300 turned out to be a fairly powerful gaming notebook. Both CPU and GPU performance were at a high level, and the aluminum case turned out to be fairly robust. Only the display lid could have been a bit more robust. For customers on a budget that do not mind tinkering with the device’s fan management the Acer Predator Triton 300 can be worth a closer look."
