Honestly, Im impressed. Last year’s model, while not bad, was a bit of a letdown for me. I had the G5 for a while and it left a lot to be desired. This G15 is basically a ripoff of their Alienware model with inferior build quality but Im not complaining. The m15 is a gorgeous machine and if this G15 minics that, that’s okay with me. Temperatures are so much better than last year’s model. Fans don’t run nearly as loud. The Ryzen 7 is a monster. The 3050ti is not the most inpressive card but I got my laptop open box for $850 and I’ll be darned if you can find a better soec laptop for under $900. I really wanted a 3060 but the 3050ti does okay. I mostly play games like Apex and Rocket League with dont use a ton a vram but I’ve also played Red Dead Redemption and it runs about 60-70fps on high. I did add another 8gb of ram to make framerates stable. A system like this deserves 16gb of ram. I really enjoy the orange backlit keyboard. If its not RGB, it’s usually always the typical “gamer red” color. So orange is a nice change. The screen reportedly doesnt have the best response time but I havent noticed any ghosting when running games at 120hz. Its worth mentioning that I downgraded my laptop to Windows 10. It comes with windows 11 but I was having issues on 11 like the battery life staying at 99% on battery power and not displaying accurate battery life. As soon as I went to 10, battery life started reporting normally. Overall, Im happy with this purchase. Last year’s models were a mess. I even rememebr seeing the G7 throttle games when it wasn’t on a flat surface (somethijg to do with how the gpu was seated). It’s nice to see these laptops being great offerings as gaming machines again.

I bought this for gaming and it runs great! I had a few issues in the first year with overheating and the charging wire has never fit into the charging port correctly. So i replaced charger with one off amazon and did a factory reset which fixed the overheating issue. Overall i really love the laptop and if you are buying it as a primary gaming laptop it works well. I play BG3, Divinity, Sims and so on if these are the type of things you are looking to use it for. Also the overall look of it is really nice and the screen is a great size and its fast.

Honestly, it’s a great laptop! I can play almost any game on it and it runs smooth. Never overheats, and is honestly worth its price! I would, and have recommended this product to my friends!

Absolutely phenomenal! Runs extremely fast and great buy the price. Everything that I play runs at a high speed. No major issues so far either.

I bought this model over a year ago with a dedicated purpose: to smoothly run games like Fallout New Vegas and the old Witcher games without breaking the bank. Mission accomplished. For a few bucks more I also upgraded the RAM, first by adding a second 8gb stick and then eventually by replacing those and adding dual 16gb sticks. I also added 2TB storage in the SSD2 slot. Now this machine handles WAY more demanding games than I initially intended with relative ease.
