I just received my Acer predator helios 300, everything is good so far, the only problem is the battery.
when gaming on the laptop i keep it plugged for better performance,but still the battery discharge !! is this normal ? i read that it's feature so the battery live longer, but I'm not really sure.

    It is normal. You can't call it completely a feature, but yes it is there to keep the battery alive longer.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.
