I have noticed a thing with my Predator Helios 300, that whenever I keep my phone on the area on the left of the track pad, the screen flashes! Is anyone else facing this problem? Should I be careful and not keep any electronic radio device there as it may interfere with the laptops functioning?

    Hi @ DropTheTurd
    Your cellphone may have some kind of a particularly strong sensor which makes your computer to keep flashing. The electro-magnetic interference may be sending a false signal from the touchpad and the system must start flashing. 

    Several customers connect to the internet on their laptops using their mobile phone connections hence to infer that keeping a mobile phone next to the computer may not be safe, may not be entirely correct. However, if you are facing a problem or notice any abnormality, we recommend you do not keep both devices at near distances to each other to avoid any problems in the future.
