    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 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 an amazing laptop. I did not buy it for gaming, but it runs smoothly with great graphics when I play movies and at a fast speed. The only minor flaw that I see is that the battery life is not as good as expected, but overall I still give it 5 stars.

    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.

    Had spent some time with my new Dell G15 : -CPU: i7 13th gen -GPU: Nvidia RTX 4060 -RAM: 16GB -Memory: 1TB SSD -And a maaaasive power supply(330w), the biggest i have ever seen in laptop so far! *Right off the bat this laptop screams Alienware, it's very edge, a little bit clunky(6.2lbs), with a very gaming characteristics every way you turn it! I like that they matched the cooling fins with the orange from the G logo from the side! *The keyboard feels good and it is backlit(orange), the trackpad is medium size with a somewhat grip to it(i wish they would've made it little diferent texture allowing my finger to glide better.... but for an everyday use it's totally fin since mostly i would be using my mouse for gaming! *The screen is good for a gaming laptop. Very accurate on colors with 120hz refresh rate. That gets just bright enough to let you enjoy most of the content. This laptop it's very well equipped and it's a good deal for the price. It won't break the bank and will offer very good performance in a nicely designed body, very very similar to an Alienware. Oh i almost forgot about the "G key" is located at the top middle of the keyboard and will activate the Boost Cooling Mode on demand i think that's pretty neath since this machine can get warm when you put those components on load! In the end the Dell G15 it's a good gaming laptop that suits well the gaming enthusiasts, offering good performance in a nice body(with decent speakers,screen and battery) for a price that would satisfy most of us that look to obtain some great performance without breaking the bank!

    Laptop is really fast and looks great only thing is it's heavy weighs almost 6 pounds but it's worth it. Battery life may not be that great so I've installed Linux on it.

    Great Machine For the Money!!!!!

    I bought this Laptop a little over 4 months ago and have been using it non-stop for extreme gaming, coding, virtual machine (Spinning up Linux), and video rendering. It does get a wee bit toasty at times but has never run more than 88 degrees Celsius when sitting on a desk flat with no cooling pad during heavy gaming sessions. Gaming on battery is a no go, but I don't game on battery because there are times throughout the weekend where I will sit and game for 6 to 7 hours. This can run the Witcher 3 with DLSS on for quality at very high graphics, the game looks amazing, way better than PS4 ever dreamed of, and with my cooling pad, it only gets up to around 77 to 80 degrees Celsius tops. Mostly sits around 72 to 75. While coding I do go without plugging in because I take it different places at times while I code. During those times, I have had 4 to 5 hours battery life while scripting, coding, automating, and watching videos at times to take a brain break. This computer has had a few bad reviews. But I guess I was lucky enough to get a good one! Because I absolutely really enjoy this computer! I have upgraded it with a second 1TB SSD card, as well as upgraded the Ram to 32Gig. For the Money, this thing is a beast and I LOVE IT!!! I have thought about Buying another for my wife since she is a gamer as well. But she doesn't want one since she only plays those Cozy farming type games and her Dell runs them just fine with its integrated graphics card.

    Had this laptop and few weeks now and I am very happy with everything. For $1100 has all I needed. Wanted 1tb SSD drive not 500mg. Wanted a laptop that could handle my online golf game, Perfect Golf, and does that very nicely. Quality graphic and fairly good sound. A best buy at Best Buy.

    Runs super well, but is a little bulky. Needs to be plugged in or it throttles your games

    Recently, I purchased an amazing notebook that exceeded all my expectations. It has a powerful processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB, which ensures fast and efficient performance. The screen is high-definition, perfect for watching movies and working on projects. Additionally, the battery lasts all day, which is great for those who are always on the go. I did a lot of research before buying and found a great price. It was definitely one of the best purchases I've ever made!

    This system has plenty of power to run every game on the market. Battery life for a gaming laptop is decent, not amazing but will give you a bit of time away from the plug. Screen is maxed at 1080p but for the size it's perfect and allows more games to run at higher settings. My only issue is the ssd size but I also run an external that has plenty of speed due to the thunderbolt port on the back.

    So far I have enjoyed this laptop. It does get a little warm while being used, but functionally it does everything I need it to. I bought two of them, one for home use and one for my son for his engineering classes at UNCC. So far they have not had any issues. They work equally well gaming, doing basic productivity tasks with Excel or Word and writing programs using several different IDEs. Overall, I am very satisfied.

    I didn't buy this PC for gaming, I bought it for video and photo editing. For the price it checks all the boxes except the RAM, 16 gb is not quite enough for my work. However, upgrading the RAM was pretty easy and was a cheap upgrade. Now with 32 gb RAM this thing is perfect. One thing I recommend, get a stand for this thing, it gets hot and does a lot better cooling with it is elevated, that is typical of laptops anyway, but especially true for this beast. The display is great for gaming, but for my work, I would have preferred a 4K, HDR display.

    I personally think this laptop is amazing. I upgraded mine with an extra 1 TB NVMe SSD and went from 16 to 32 GB of ram. It plays everything I own at 120 FPS(I locked the frames for every game to 120, it'll definitely get more in most games). I absolutely love this laptop though. I just wish the USBs weren't on the side of the laptop where the mouse goes. But that's not a big deal, I got a thunderbolt hub to move my USBs.
