Computers battery life does not last longer than 2 hours even if simply surfing the web. Pretty much requires being plugged in 24/7. Specs weight size all amazing, does the job of a gaming laptop while looking sleek.

It's powerful and you'll be able to run modern games very well. The vents can get clogged and are very hard to clean but besides that you'll be fine

Picked this up on sale and was not disappointed. Good value and the quality so far has been good. As far as the customer service with Dell that’s a different scenario. Luckily for me there are no problems so I don’t have to contact Dell yet. But as far the product 10/10

Brand response from YourDellTeam

Hello LewisR,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review of your Dell G16 Gaming Laptop. We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing an issue with the performance of your device and your system overheating. That is not the type of feedback we like to hear from our customers, or the type of product Dell intends to deliver. Below I have provided troubleshooting steps to help with the performance of your battery and a troubleshooting link to help with overheating.
Here are the steps to help improve the battery performance of your laptop: 1. On the notification area of the taskbar, right-click the Battery icon. 2. On the options list, click Power Options. 3. Select a power plan on the battery meter, such as Power Saver or Balanced. Windows 10 has a built-in 'Battery Saver' mode that can be activated to extend your system's battery life. The Battery Saver mode will monitor and limit background activity and other features such as push notifications. You do have the option to enable or disable this mode within settings or within advanced Battery Saver settings, you can customize the mode to best suit your needs.
a) Click on the Action Center icon in the taskbar and select the tile for Battery Saver. b) If running Cortana, type Battery Saver into the search box and select from the results. Within the Battery Saver settings page, you will be able to turn on and off the feature and customize the feature to best meet your needs. c) Turn the Battery Saver On or Off. d) Additional settings are available via the Battery use and Battery saver settings links. e) Battery use shows further info on apps and their power usage. f) Battery Saver Settings screen allows you to customize further the Battery Saver feature.
