Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my first full gaming laptop since 2012 and that time it was a Lenovo Y580. Since then I've had a Zenbook with Geforce 150M for traveling and an M1 MBA. The problem with the Zenbook became clear within a year of buying it. The laptop was a great traveler but the TDP limits castrated it's potential beyond that. Coupled with only 8GB RAM and it simply wasn't usable as Windows 10 progressed. The MBA has been much better, although heavier and the metal case is freezing in the colder months. So, now enters why I saw it time to get a new desktop replacement grade machine. Frankly, the needs I have for a machine to handle streaming tasks have grown and I can't borrow other machines anymore. The Zenbook simply couldn't handle even running OBS due to it's TDP limits. It got so choppy and bad. So this now enters the picture. I've worked with a Dell before for a relative and found them to be great machines to work on and offer decent flexibility. Although, the AMD ones often have power limit problems because they don't give them a proper Ryzen power plan. Which is solved with a simple download after a search. This unit being Intel doesn't have that issue, although it does have the problems of the 13th gens when it comes to the silly E cores and apps not working with them well. But that can be turned off in the bios so no worries there. Granted I kind of wanted a laptop with OLED but, when finding this unit, it simply couldn't be beat for the price. You get specs of a machine in the $1500 range for under $1000 and options for upgrading. The screen is also quite nice as well. Very quality. Upgrade options are both RAM and your main storage. There is reports of people getting over 32GB RAM in this but those are either hacking the bios or doing a little RAM swap trick. I would recommend you look into those first before buying if you need more than 32GB. Those tricks aren't for everyone. I immediately swapped in a Crucial 32GB kit that the local BestBuy had and am fine with that. Your main drive in this is a simple nVME M2, however, it is not the 2280 length. It's a tiny 2230 drive similar to what goes in the Steamdecks. Under that is a full length 2280 expansion socket which is wonderful because you can run with both and put a larger nVME in the other. Which also means, you could go a slower drive to save money. However, as with all SSDs, avoid QLC drives like the plague. Performance so far has been exceptional. The fact that you have a rather large 330W power supply gives this thing some great TDP options where the 4060 can actually run at good speeds along with the main CPU. Portability isn't the strong point of this so keep that in mind. However, it is built very sturdy. I thought my old Lenovo has been a tank but this makes that look like a VW beetle. The cooling system is fantastic however, it does get quite hot. I would invest in an elevation system to help increase airflow below the unit. This isn't really a lap unit. Would not use it for that. The amount of openings for air should tell you already that this thing needs good air access. Really, I'm quite happy with this but I do take a star off because Dell purposely crippled the RAM upgrade in the BIOS as of about summer 2024. I see no reason why they did this other than to force people to upgrade sooner in the future. It's dirty and sorry Dell, it is a black mark on an otherwise fantastic machine. If you are tech savvy like me, you'll find the way around it but others that are not, you're stuck. However, that is, as I mentioned earlier, only if you need more than 32GB RAM. I doubt this will be a problem. It's just the principle of it as Lenovo did silly limiting things like this in their BIOS. The biggest reason why I never bought another one. You also can't easily undervolt the CPU as far as I can tell. There is overclock options but they aren't defined nor do they let you fine tune enough. Only those who would like to do that need to keep this in mind. However, they'll also hack the bios to do it anyways so, it isn't really an issue for them.

Dell has been making some of the best gaming laptops for years. This G15 model is following that trend. It comes with high end components but still manages to maintain a reasonable price point. Pros: - It has a beautiful Full HD display with a terrific refresh rate (120Hz) to improve the look and flow of your gaming experience. - As Dell owns Alienware, the Alienware Command Center comes pre-installed to help you manage/tweak your laptop performance from its convenient dashboard. - Performance can be boosted with the push of a button. The game boost button (doubling as F9) lets you enable or disable the feature with one touch. You'll hear the fans kick into high gear with thermal cooling helping maintain CPU/GPU temperatures. - With an RTX 4060 graphics card, you'll have no trouble playing any game in your library. I was able to play my favorite titles at high settings, getting terrific frame rates. The game play was similar to even higher end laptops that I have used. - The 1TB solid state drive allows for fast updates to Windows and quick boot times. Games also load far more quickly. If I had my way I would never use a hard drive again in my life. Cons: - Sound quality was good but not great. But like most laptops, you'll typically be using alternate audio options anyway. - Because of the power of this system battery life can drain somewhat quickly, especially if you are in high performance mode. You'll want to be near an outlet for any longer gaming sessions. - 1 TB storage can fill up quickly on a gaming laptop so be prepared to expand if you like to have many games installed at once. This is a terrific gaming laptop. The quality of components combined with its reasonable cost makes it an excellent buy.

Package was delayed by more than 7 days , i asked particularly about delivaery as i wanted to send item to india and i missed it , after calling their customer care for at least aome compensation they denied , very horrible experience for getting package also.....

This is the definition of a budget gaming laptop. It has all the right internal hardware to push games and it runs the tests to show it is in the gaming range. It plays games fairly well at 1080p, even tested with VR despite the Meta Link software saying it is not supported. So, it isn’t all that bad. However, it is all the external parts that just makes it feel cheap. Starting with unpacking, this laptop has the biggest power brick that I have ever seen. And I mean this thing is a literal brick, coming in at 3.4 pounds, that is over half the weight of the 6.2lb laptop itself. I’ve had more powerful laptops and they never had a power supply this big. The next thing that made it feel cheap is the keyboard and touchpad. They just feel very loose and don’t have a very good feel to them.Sometimes it takes some real effort to push the touchpad in to click and it feels like it shifts. At Least it has a full number pad for the size, but it is shrunk to fit. The backlight is a single amber color, but is pretty consistent across all the keys. The one thing I find as a real let down is the display. After playing for a little while and then having switched screen, I noticed a very bad persistence of the previous image. So, I did a little test myself and made a high contrast image. Left it on the screen for 15 minutes and then went to a solid color and you can see from the images below that the previous image can still be seen. Like I mentioned, the 13 gen i7 processor, the RTX 4060, 16GB RAM, 1 TB SSD M2 drive with the ability to add another, the USB 3.2 ports, they all make up to be pretty impressive for the price, so I get that they have to cut corners in other areas. Like the fact it does not support 6 Ghz Wi-Fi yet, but at least is 802.11ax. It just doesn’t seem as impressive on the outside. Personally, if you already have your own external keyboard, mouse and monitor and don’t plan to use the laptop much for travel, then this isn’t all that bad. You probably wouldn’t be able to build a computer for that much with these specs and still keep it down to the size of a laptop. Overall, it fits the budget gaming laptop category perfectly. You get the numbers, just not the quality. I don’t want to say it is a bad laptop, I would just say I only recommend it if you are looking for something that can keep up with modern games at a decent spec and have some of your own hardware to plug into it, then it’s not bad. If you want it for traveling a lot or don’t have your own monitor, keyboard and mouse, then you might want to look for another model.

Dell G15 is this an alienware laptop? coz it pretty much is! the design of the laptop is something you’ll find on an alienware. I love the shadow gray color. the orange accent is subtle, and exhaust fans at back that reminds me of race car. it definitely gives that gamer vibe when you see this laptop in person. minor flex on screen which shows the build quality is good. also make sure your hand is not greasy it can leave finger prints on the top cover of the laptop that can be noticeable when it’s on properly lighting. second thing I notice is how much I love love the keyboard feels with this G15. great RGB lighting and keys are comfortable to use not clicky. WSAD keys are also highlighted, I love how this keyboard definitely pointed for gamers. G15 is equip with an RTX 4060. with Core i7. the screen is 1080p and the main thing I don’t like about it is the color quality of the screen. it’s quite lacking on color department that the screen looks a bit faded on games. one thing I highly recommend is to download the latest Nvidia app and apply the nvidia vibrance boost. is can be activated on games and man it’s a huge upgrade when using that features for the laptop. another thing that surprise me is how huge the charging brick with G15 is comically huge all that size for 330W. it’s almost half of the screen if you put them side by side. not really sure why but i’ve seen a much powerful laptop and has smaller power adapter. for me what makes this an alienware is the fact that when you boot a game an alienware command center is installed automatically. this gives you few settings to adjust like your RGB and how you want your PC performance to behave. touch pad was fine I didn’t notice any delay when using but you might have to physically put more pressure on your press. also don’t forget that you can add more PCIE memory in the future. now how does this laptop run on games. halo Infinite optimize settings including low to ultra texture and some medium get 160fps and it looks and runs great. happy to see if goes above the 120fps but this monitor is limited to 120hz overall I was happy with how my most played game performed. playing The Finals on my optimize settings gets me 110fps to 104 still performs above 60fps is all I need this one seems a bit more demanding maybe because I was using RTX feature but overall it never went below 100fps on my settings I used. overwatch optimize setting was locked 120fps which is the max hz the monitor can offer fan noise on all games is loud but not loud enough to be annoying honestly after playing I stop hearing the fan noises. it performs extremely well I didn’t see any spike on speed noises. a reasonable fan performance. I hope in future release the 1080p led screen gets a much better picture quality next year. temperature while gaming is fair low I believe the design of the laptop has a great airflow as well to help out and it shows. I think for the price is reasonable. the laptop is beautiful performance is also great having i7 and RTX 4060. overall highly recommend this laptop to any gamer.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Impressive Performance & Value for Gamers I’ve been using the Dell G15 for a few weeks now, and it’s a beast for the price. The 13th Gen Intel Core i7 handles multitasking and heavy games without breaking a sweat. Paired with the RTX 4060, it delivers smooth gameplay even on high settings. The 120Hz display adds to the overall fluid experience — noticeable especially in FPS games. The 1TB SSD is super fast and gives plenty of space for all my games and media. Build quality feels solid, and the design is sleek with a nice matte finish. Fans do kick in during intense sessions, but that’s expected in a gaming laptop. Highly recommended for gamers or creators looking for power and speed without going over budget!

Had it for only a day and already impressed. Played some games on it, also was using my cell phones hotspot internet and was getting some decent ping for multiplayer games. The games run great! Easy access to switch performance mode on and off is nice too. This thing runs all my games including CoD Black Ops 6, Marvel Rivals, and Path of Exile 2 at high settings just fine. Just browsing the web is as you'd expect, but about 1 hour in and battery life is about 80% while unplugged. That's basically the only con to this device. The battery life. But this is a gaming laptop so it's expected. The other con is a small one and not really a con, but I just wish the screen was better. Maybe more brightness, maybe 1440p res, these sorta things would obviously pump the price up. But this is a mid tier gaming laptop, and it was only $999 for me. I can't trust my mail atm due to mail thieves in my area as of late. Overall pretty happy! Awesome and powerful device!

Laptops present OEMs with a difficult conundrum: power, portability, and price…pick two. In most circumstances, a low priced and portable laptop won’t have much power, while a powerful and portable laptop will give you sticker shock. Sacrificing some of the portability is where most affordable gaming laptops land, and nowhere is that more obvious than in Dell’s G-series offerings. Fortunately, Dell seems to have recognized that an opportunity exists to utilize the lack of portability to help further the power offering with better cooling options, and nowhere is that more evident than in the new G5. Touting Dell’s “thermal shelf” cooling solution, this thicker-than-average 15.6” gaming laptop packs an absolute wallop, with a CPU and GPU performing like desktop-grade components capable of generating over 250 watts of heat when both are at maximum attack. This is usually a recipe for thermal throttling and uncomfortable gaming, but Dell’s choice to put a more sophisticated cooling solution in the chassis pays dividends, even if it pushes their midrange gaming laptop more towards a desktop replacement than a portable workstation. Though some sacrifices were made on the way, the Dell G5 punches above its weight. - Unboxing and Setup First impressions of the Dell G5 are the size and heft of the laptop. With Dell’s unique “thermal shelf” solution jutting out the rear of the laptop, the G5 takes ono a more squared shape compared to most gaming laptops, and inch-thick chassis matches its weight - this is no light laptop. The included 330W power brick is similarly massive, with long cords giving the impression that this machine sacrifices some portability for power. The all-plastic chassis is has quite a few hard angles that aren’t the most comfortable things to hold, but the design is far from overstyled. Elevated feet allow the thermal shelf solution to intake cool air from below the laptop and exhaust to the rear, ensuring heat is efficiently vented clear of the screen. The design limits the screen hinge to about a 135-degree angle. Port selection is adequate - 3 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports, HDMI 2.0, USB-C with DisplayPort output, combination headphone/mic jack, and as is befitting for a desktop-grade gaming laptop, an integrated Gigabit ethernet port. Initial setup of Windows 11 goes as expected, but some Dell-preinstalled bloatware is included that tries to get you to register as part of setup. Fortunately these are skippable and the applications are easily uninstalled from Windows settings. Dell Support is preinstalled for easier access to chat support, if you prefer. - Performance In short, this laptop is a monster for both productivity and gaming. The Intel Core i7-13650HX is a high-power laptop CPU packing 14 cores (6 “performance” cores with hyperthreading, plus 8 “efficient” cores) that performs almost identically to a [12th-generation] desktop Core i7. I couldn’t find a situation that seemed to make the chip stumble, even when rendering a video clip in the background of the demanding game I was running simultaneously. This is truly unfettered desktop performance in a somewhat mobile package. The mobile variant of the RTX 4060 8GB in use here is configured to run at a ridiculously high power target - I believe the TDP max of 115 watts. What this means is the chip boosts to incredibly high clock speeds, which gives it performance closer to RTX 4070 mobile graphics cards in real-world testing. At the laptop’s native 1080p resolution, every game I could throw at it ran at max settings, well beyond 60fps with some pushing to the screen’s 120Hz refresh rate. Higher resolutions are possible with external displays, where the 4060 somewhat struggles to run games at native 4K at acceptable speeds, but if this is your intended use case, the RTX chips allow for use of DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) and similar visual enhancements to lower GPU workload and boost framerate. The only downside to this system’s configuration is the 16GB of system RAM, but this laptop mercifully uses SODIMM memory, which is upgradeable. Two 8GB sticks come preinstalled by default and are easily changed to higher speeds and capacities. The 1TB SSD is your typical NVMe PCIe 4.0 fare and works well enough to host the OS and several game installs. - Thermals & Noise The cooling capacity of Dell’s “thermal shelf” solution is astounding. With the fans cranked to max and the system set to Turbo mode, I had a hard time getting either the RTX 4060 to crack 70 degrees Celsius, or the i7-13650HX to crest 90. These are both short of their thermal throttling points, and in any circumstance the heat generated by these is vented rearward, leaving the laptop surface cool and comfortable to continue gaming on. The keyboard never got noticeably warm, and the laptop felt cool to the touch except at the rear. The counterpoint to the beefy cooling capability is that at full bore, the fans on this machine are somewhat loud. The noise isn’t unbearable, as the fans are larger than average resulting in a lower pitch when they’re running, but you will definitely want to game with headphones on or use an external speaker system to overcome the noise generated by this machine. Fortunately the fan speeds are tunable, and the sheer size of the heatsinks and fans means you can run these at much lower speeds while maintaining most of the performance on tap. Indeed, even the Balanced profile in the Alienware app allowed excellent gaming performance while the fans ran at low, modest speeds. - Screen, Sound Hitting the MSRP for this laptop did require a few small sacrifices, and it’s obvious in the screen and speakers. While the 1080p 15.6” display supports up to a 120Hz refresh rate, the VA-type panel is just average in terms of refresh rate, color and contrast, and viewing angles. Colors are only somewhat vibrant, and as brightness increases so too do the blacks appear to be a dim gray. In addition, the panel is mounted with a bit too much pressure along the top of the screen, resulting in a little bit of color bleed that’s apparent in dark scenes. Apart from the high refresh rate, this feels like your typical 15.6” laptop display. Fortunately the screen supports adaptive sync for smoother gameplay. The speakers on this laptop are some of the weakest I’ve heard in some time. While the upward-firing speakers generate clear enough speech and in-game sound effects at medium volume, they lack absolutely any bass reproduction whatsoever, and are prone to resonate and distort into the plastic chassis when cranking the volume higher. Dolby Atmos adds nothing to the experience here as the speakers were clearly included as a minimum requirement, nothing more. - Build Quality, Battery Life, Upgradeability Build quality on the G5 is reasonably solid. Despite the all-plastic body, the chassis and screen exhibit little flex, with a display hinge that feels sturdy enough for midrange laptops like this one. The finish of the plastic isn’t high-end by any stretch, but the texturing feels nice, even if prone to smudges from fingertips. The keyboard and touchpad feel firm with only a slight bit of flex at the center of the keyboard, if you’re looking for it. Despite a large 86 watt-hour battery, the fact of the matter is the desktop-grade components used here yield a Dell-estimated 6 and half hour battery life. This is also only possible using NVIDIA Optimus technology, which selectively disables the RTX 4060 when on battery power (or by user choice) to use only the Core i7’s onboard Intel UHD 710 (no Iris here) graphics. In my testing, I got just about 4 and a half hours on battery with the 4060 disabled before Windows went into Battery Saver mode (20% remaining), and I eeked out just about 6 hours on my longest run with most instances wrapping up closer to 5 and a half…honestly, not too bad for this size class. The best part about this larger-than-expected laptop is just how easy it is to upgrade. The bottom panel has 10 screws (4 of which are captive) and it pops off with ease, revealing two SODIMM memory slots for up to 64GB of DDR5, and two (!!) NVMe SSD connectors, only one of which is populated from the factory. The WiFi card is on a separate mini-PCIe connector, and the battery is easily disconnected and removed should it need replacement. Going a step further, the blower fans are large and modular for easy replacement. Dell has long struggled with e-waste but this laptop is exemplary for maintaining your machine to give it a long service life. Commendable! - Bottom Line Dell’s G5 gaming laptop represents a great value in gaming laptops that lean more toward the desktop replacement class. Though some sacrifices were made to hit the $1,149 MSRP, the mediocre screen and substandard speakers are hardly concessions worth dinging the machine for, given the powerhouses of a CPU and GPU on hand here, with a thermal design more than capable of dissipating the heat these processors generate, and a very serviceable mainboard. This is a machine that will easily keep up five years from now with just memory and storage upgrades, and should last quite a long time with basic care and maintenance. If you’re looking for a machine that can do it all at a reasonable price, the Dell G5 comes highly recommended!

This laptop was really thought out in terms of build quality and upgradeability (room for 2 M.2 drives and up to 32GB of RAM) The body is made of plastic but it doesn't feel cheap. I play games on this just fine so far I've installed Baldur's Gate 3, Diablo 4, Hogwarts Legacy , Gears 5 and they all run just fine. I keep it plugged in as my main computer at the moment so I cannot really talk about battery life. I never write reviews but I thought this laptop needed one.

Unboxing and Setup The Dell G15 Gaming Laptop is a solid, high-end performer. It feels solid, and it comes with a substantial external power supply. The chassis is vented across the bottom, sides, and the top. The rubber supports for preventing desktop movement are solid. The lifting of the lid is smooth and solid. The 15.6" display's anti-glare finish is excellent for preventing glare, even when I have a window behind me. I'm not thrilled with the sharp corners on the front, which are uncomfortable for my hands when not using an external keyboard. The full-size keyboard keys are a comfortable size and spacing for touch typing. The orange backlight is through and around the keys, and the outlines around the ASDW gaming movement keys are a nice touch. The setup of Windows and updates only took a little over 30 minutes. However, installing Steam, Flight Simulator 2020, No Man's Sky, and 3DMark took all evening. I removed apps I didn't want and configured the Alienware Command Center to automatically switch to high-performance mode when playing the games. Gaming and Benchmarks This laptop shines when it comes to gaming. I hooked up a flight stick controller and launched Flight Simulator. The laptop automatically switched into high-performance mode. I configured FS to use High-end graphics, full screen, and Directx 12. The graphics and performance are impressive. All aspects of simulating flight with real weather and real-time multi-player traffic are amazing. I didn't experience any hanging, stuttering, or topology tearing. The Frames Per Second hovered between 55-60. The cooling fans came on, but I was amazed at how quiet the fans were. No Man's Sky provided the same level of quality gaming with high-level graphics and smooth movements of the characters, terrain, spaceships, and animals. The FPS stayed at 60. NMS and FS will quickly drain the battery at around 90 minutes. Constant YouTube videos drained the battery at 4.5 hours, and just everyday work use of writing, UI design, and programming - the battery endured for six hours. The benchmark tests generated very impressive results (seen below.) Summary The Dell G15 Gaming Laptop is a serious contender for high-end gaming at a very reasonable price. Keep it plugged in while gaming, and use an external keyboard to keep your hands comfortable. It has a solid feel and this laptop will see a lot of use in my house. I'm pretty happy to give this laptop a full five stars.

This Alienware-like laptop falls into the budget high-performance gaming category, making it a great alternative if you can’t afford an Alienware. The design is strikingly similar to Alienware, which I’ve used for years. Unboxing is straightforward, with minimal packaging materials, yet everything is well-protected. Design: The design is eye-catching and elegant, featuring sharp edges and colored vents at the back, reminiscent of the Alienware 15 R3 with its stylish dark shadow gray color. While it’s a bit heavy for portability, especially with the massive 330-watt power brick required for charging, the laptop strikes a functional balance between 13" and 17" models. The 15.6" screen offers ample real estate for gaming, work, productivity, and entertainment. The keyboard is well-spaced and backlit, providing a smooth typing experience. The front-facing camera is decent for video conferences but lacks Windows Hello sign-in, so you’ll need to use a username, password, or PIN. Hardware: The Dell G15 features a 15.6" Full HD 1920x1080 120Hz LED display, Intel i7 13650 HX processor, Nvidia RTX 4060 GPU, 16 GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 with DisplayPort, HDMI 2.1, and an ethernet port. Setup and Performance: Setting up this powerhouse laptop was a breeze, taking just 14 minutes, including updates. The screen, although only FHD, looks fantastic with a 120Hz refresh rate, providing responsive performance with no screen tearing. The laptop offers smooth visuals and vibrant colors, and the hardware handles peak performance effortlessly, even though at 60Hz for most of my games. The audio is clear and loud, and thanks to the Alienware-inspired cooling system, the device didn’t overheat during long gaming sessions. Connected to an external monitor, it performed flawlessly, making me very satisfied. With the Alienware Command Center software, you can customize performance settings, ranging from battery to high-performance modes. Additionally, the G key on the keyboard can be used to activate performance mode instantly, though this causes the fans to get quite loud. Summary: Subjectively, I loved this laptop. It is solid, stylish, and offers outstanding performance that extends beyond gaming to productivity and entertainment. My only downsides are the bulky power brick and the lack of Windows Hello sign-in capability. Other than that, it’s a great laptop.

I’d call this laptop a sleeper, it’s unassuming basic design. It run fantastic and smooth and consistently impresses me with its capabilities. Cons would be the battery life and potentially fan noise but they are relatively minor issues

Fast Processor, very good gaming laptop. I am very satisfied with it as a desktop replacement for most things. As a laptop only, weight, 6.5 lbs, and shorter battery life are a down side, plus the power brick weighs more than my last laptop. That said, as this machine will spend the vast majority of its life sitting on my desk, these are not issues to me. If you are looking for a machine that will cover the gamut from Emails to Gaming, this is it, portability, not so much. This laptop was exactly what I needed in a PC and I am much pleased.

I use this gaming laptop mostly for its fast processor and graphics to manage applications that are graphic intensive. I don't use it for gaming at all. It has been working great so far. I found it a little heavy for travel as well as the power adapter which is super heavy. I am happy so far.

***Great Laptop for University and gaming*** I bought this laptop for my son, and it's been fantastic. It's powerful enough for his university assignments with a fast processor and ample RAM. The high-quality display is great for long study sessions. For gaming, it's equally impressive, delivering excellent graphics and fast load times. It's perfect for both academic work and relaxation. Highly recommended!

The Dell G15 stands as a formidable contender in the gaming laptop arena. The laptop offers excellent performance with great specs but takes a hit in some areas. So, let’s go over what this laptop has to offer and what could be improved upon. Configuration: DIMENSIONS: 1.06 H x 14.07 W x 10.80D – 6.19LBS DISPLAY: 15.6 in FHD LED Display VRAM: 8GB GDDR6 CPU: Intel i7 13th Gen13650HX Processor STORAGE: 1TB (EXPANDABLE) PCIe NVMe SSD RAM: DDR5 16GB (EXPANDABLE) WLAN: WIFI-6 PORTS: 1 X HDMI 2.1, 1 Headphone/Microphone jack combo, 3 USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, and 1 USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port with DisplayPort BATTERY: 6 CELL 86WH – Up to 6.5 hours Processor and Memory: The G15 is powered by the 13th Gen intel Core i7-13650HX processor which has 14 cores, 20 threads and can turbo boost up to 4.90 Ghz. The 13th gen i7 processor is a multitasking powerhouse. I experienced seamless transitions between gaming, streaming, and productivity seamlessly. The 16GB of DD5 ram ensures that your laptop can handle even the most demanding application with ease. Combine the processor and memory in this unit with the GeForce RTX 4060 and you have yourself a top-notch gaming machine. I tested out multiple AAA title games and it was a smooth and beautiful gaming experience across the board. Display: The G15 boasts a 15.6 screen with Full HD 1920x1080 120Hz LED display. The display itself is bright, clear and the colors are pretty good, I personally feel that the FHD resolution feels a bit dated for a gaming laptop of this caliber. Unfortunately, there are no options for a higher resolution display for this model. Design: Even though I am always a big fan of being able to upgrade my laptops, I guess they come at a price, and this is where this laptop takes a hit. The G15 comes in a Dark shadow color which gives it a sleek look, but this thing is massive and heavy. Coming in at almost 6.5lbs and with a massive power brick, this isn’t a laptop that you can game on or watch movies on your lap for extended periods and gets a bit cumbersome to carry from place to place. The laptop also struggles with heat management, often becoming uncomfortably warm during extended gaming sessions. STORAGE: This laptop offers a storage capacity of up to 1TB. While this is generally sufficient for most users, the storage space is expandable if you choose. In conclusion, Dell G15, while offering some impressive specs and delivering a smooth and enjoyable gaming experience, falls short in terms of design, portability and heat management. A laptop should not feel like a chore to carry about and the heat coming off this thing was bit much for me. However, if you prioritize raw performance at a competitive price point and don't mind the bulkier design and don’t plan on gaming with this on your lap, it's still a capable machine.

I am extremely happy with this purchase! Although this gaming laptop & accessories are heavy if you need to travel, it exceeds my expectations for my personal use. I am a medium level gamer and have expanded into more PVP action games through Steam and Xbox. It is well constructed, sturdy, fast and is user-friendly for those who are not technically savvy to navigate today's ever-changing high-tech universe. I would highly recommend. Well worth the purchase!

Powerful laptop for the price. Have been able to play all my games with no issues at high settings. The built in fans you can turn up are a little loud but whenever my laptop gets a little warm, I turn in on and in 5 minutes is cooled down. I love being able to cool down with the push of a button. The power brick is massive but this is not a downside for me personally. If you travel a lot, this might become frustrating. I am very happy with my purchase and feel like it was well worth the price.

This is my second G15, and it’s an excellent laptop overall. It handles all games on ultra settings with ray tracing enabled, delivering fantastic performance for the price. The design is sleek and professional, avoiding the toy-like aesthetic of some gaming laptops. It also runs relatively cool and quiet, which is a big plus. That said, there are a couple of drawbacks. The power brick is massive—at 350 watts, it’s literally a brick. Additionally, the display is average, and there’s minor light leakage when the screen is supposed to display pure black. Despite these minor issues, it’s a solid choice for gamers looking for performance and style. I had some issues with my online purchase but the store employees were very helpful when I was in for pickup.

I needed a new laptop that had the speed, processor power, memory and graphics power to run a range of ham radio applications, mapping software and the occasional flight simulator. This Dell G15 has met all of my requirements and is able to run everything I've asked it to run, including XPlane 12 and Flight Simulator 2024. Of all the options available to me given space constraints and such, a laptop fit the bill better than a desktop. This laptop has superb performance and the price was reasonable. Operation has been flawless and I'm very happy with this computer.
