Many also appreciate its price point and effective cooling system, although some users suggest memory and storage upgrades. However, negative feedback focuses on the battery life and the display's susceptibility to damage. The laptop's weight is also a recurring concern for some customers.

    Love my purchase. Dell has always been my choice for laptops and the price for this one was a great deal. Best Buy is my place.

    For 699.99 it’s worth it but for 999.99 it is not. Played well in low to medium settings.

    AMD has raised the bar for laptop CPU performance. The combo of the CPU and GPU is paired perfect for 1080P gaming. Great midrange option for gamers

    Here we have the latest "It's an alienware, but it isn't" G series laptop. Unboxing reveals the G15 and its (hefty) charger. I'm a fan of the design of the laptop, with its faint speckles. It makes the laptop standout among its competitors. Yes, it is plastic. But, it feels solid. More-so, it is hefty. This will not be a "Take it to the bedroom and game on your lap" laptop. I would recommend any of Best Buy's laptop cooling-pads or stands if you want to do this. To me, heft = quality. The touchpad was rather sensitive at stock settings. I have corrected that. But while gaming, I prefer to use a mouse anyway. The display at 120Hz is awesome to me (I'm used to 60Hz on my displays). But, the reason for Dell not to go 144???? I guess price. Latest COD at max gives around 62fps. Unlike my old laptop there is no screen tearing or freezing, due to the dedicated 3050 Ti. This also is my first laptop with its own dedicated GPU, and not one that relies on an integrated GPU. The only downside of this, is the fan revving up at higher graphical output. 8GB of RAM? What's up with that? The standard for most serious gamers is a minimum of 16gb on a game-top. Good thing is it can easily be upgraded. But, I feel we shouldn't have to do this. The 512GB Hynix NVME is speedy, and makes things on the non-gaming side of things open extremely fast. As others have mentioned, for modern gamers this isn't enough. Again, it can be upgraded. But I feel we shouldn't have to do this. On a non-hardware note - the Windows "Out of Box Experience" was rather shoddy, to say the least. Something kept it from completing. Thankfully Dell's included recovery software allowed me to wipe the drive and do a fresh install w/ the included updates already installed. This fixed that problem. Also good to note, this will be good to go when Windows 11 is released. Connectivity is good. In my office I have it running off of the LAN. When testing WiFi, the included software maximized that experience. But speeds on Wifi did not increase, mind you. I'm on a WiFi6 network anyway. So running off WiFi was almost like being cabled. To sum it all up, this is a good Laptop for high end Flight SImulators, ROMS, etc. Yes you can play the newer games but you won't be able to fit too many on the stock hard drive, and the 8GB of RAM may be a bottleneck. Use as a regular laptop, however, excels. It is like this is the "best office/regular use machine that wants to be a gamer but isn't quite there" laptop.

    The G15 was designed new and looks as Alienware. AMD one is more powerful and less warm. It's pretty good for gaming overall at this price.

    Works great. My son liked it. It was just a bit big to lug around, which I wouldn’t have mind if there was a good protective case.

    There is brighter lighting in the bottom left hand corner that causes back light bleeding. Other than that the computer is great.
