Hello

I have bought helios neo 18 phn18-71-76xf two days ago. I saw that other Helios laptops have RGB Lightbar, but I can't find any way to turn on the lights of mine. Is there any problem with the lightbar, or this model don't have rear lightbar?

The photo is from Internet, but mine is exactly the same.

    HI @Kostadinov this feature is not included in all models, it may be optional, in any case, review the PredatorSense options, the possibility of color change should appear there if it is included.

    At this moment, it only has the color red? It is the default color when the keyboard does not have RGB.

    All the best

    Hi, @Alejandro_AC!

    Thank You for quick reply!

    There isn't option for this lightbar in Predator Sense app. The keyboard and the predator logo have RGB, and I can control if, change colors, styles and intensity. I don't know is there a problem, or may be some drivers are needed, or this feature is not included.

    I couldn't tell you which models incorporate it, wait for more answers or consult Acer directly.
    On the other hand, according to this review of your model, it does not incorporate it as the 72 model does:

    The NEO is a cut down version of the full blown Helios. The LED bar at the back is one of the things that was removed to save costs.
