This is a pretty decent laptop. I could not find a similar spec laptop for the sale price this one was when I got mine ($1399). Not many (or any?) gaming laptops offer a 4K screen at this price, however Windows 10 does not do well with 4K resolution IMO. If you connect external monitors that are 1080p, you can visibly see the resolution rescaling as windows tries to figure it out when dragging windows from laptop display to monitors. I've also noticed laggy animations with the 4K resolution. I believe this has to do this laptop having discrete intel hd graphics as well as dedicated Nvidia GTX 1060. It has nvidias optimus and I don't think it handles switching between the 2 very well (this would go for any laptop with this setup tho and not specific to this dell). My guess is that the intel graphics are being used for simple windows + tab type animations and that is why there is lag. If I set my display to 1080 resolution things do seem better performance. I also had to return the first laptop because the light bleeding was particularly bad in the top right corner where it was extremely noticeable in many situations. There were some smaller light bleed spots on the bottom but they were not noticeable unless completely black screen. The second laptop I received also has light bleeding in top left and top right corners. I decided to just keep it anyways but this is really sad that there are so many light bleeding problems with these laptops. So in summary, the laptop is a well designed and good hardware option for the price, just know there are good chances you will have light bleeding issues with the display and it might seem laggy with 4k resolution. I even noticed that chrome browser seems to have fairly laggy/delayed scrolling with touchpad and mouse in 4k yet somehow Edge browser is smooth. I'm not sure why other than perhaps not all applications are optimized for 4K resolutions in windows 10 either. It does great for gaming at 1080 resolution, you will not notice any performance issues then, so if your main purpose of purchase is for gaming you should be happy with the performance. I wanted the 4K display because reviews online have all stated this panel has much more accurate color reproduction than the 1080 panel, so until windows 10 pushes out updates that handle 4K scaling better, I might just be be happy with the good colors and keep resolution set to 1080 while trying my best to ignore light bleeding in corners.

Good, but laptop and charger both are heavy. it would be better it the back light keyboard would be blue or green instead of red.

I’ve been more or less really happy with this computer. But that is only because I know how to fix the various little problems that it needs. Like the many many drivers and updates that need to update. Also weird issue where connecting a Xbox controller can break the os and needs a hard reset. But other than that? I’ve been really happy with my purchase

Fast? Yup! Reliable? Yup! Worth it? Yup! So then...Is this highly recommended? Yup! Look, it's a laptop and it does everything a laptop does with excellent speed and reliability. You could ask for more but you probably don't need more. Trust me...I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

I have been looking for a new laptop for some time now and I wanted something I could still do gaming on if I wanted but still use it as an everyday computer. Havent had any troubles so far loads up so quick that's to dedicated ssd and the graphics are amazing. Now this seems to be the trend there is no dvd drive so be prepared to buy one

Would not recognize my iPhone so it was difficult to download pix to it. The fingerprint reader was glitchy and didn’t always recognize it so I had to sign in w my password instead. It crashed one day for no reason. It wouldn’t let me backup my iPhone into iTunes because it said there wasnt enough disk space. I’m now looking for another laptop. Do not buy!

I am an engineering student and needed multiple programs on the laptop for school and has been able to handle everything. The graphics quality is great, but the battery time is not the best.

I am not computer savy but once I loaded my programs on this laptop I am enjoying more and more. I needed a gaming laptop for all my programs but I didn't think about it not having a touch screen. It will take me a while but I will master it.

The Laptop work very well, it has good speeed and excelent performance. I can do well my work!!!!

Pretty good cpu, graphics card is great. I am able to watch 4k videos no lagging.

Has a issue with crackling in the speakers when power chord is not plugged in. Only negative I can think of.

It has done well for me so far but as far as gaming it is not really preferable, it would be much better to get a desktop for any type of gaming.

Great laptop powerful and fast Screen quality is very clear

Pretty bulky, battery life is atrocious and the fans and overheating when playing games is not good.

Working good so far, haven’t had time to really get into though so I’ll probably leave another review later

Not Recommended for more than 800$. Any software I would run, the processor fan would start being VERY loud. I am highly disappointed!!!!

I have had this laptop for about two weeks now, and I love it. One thing they don't mention on this website is that the power button on the laptop is also a fingerprint scanner that allows you to login-- it's great. Pros: great graphics card for gaming, lots of storage space (1TB hard disk drive + 512 GB Solid State), lots of RAM (16GB), the 4K resolution looks amazing, the fans are effective, the sound quality is good, and the fingerprint scanner is very nice. Cons: The fans can be noisy when playing graphics-intense games. Note: the 16GB of RAM come in one slot, which is good and bad: It leaves you with another slot to upgrade to 32GB if you wanted, but there is a slight performance decrease by using 1 stick of RAM vs. 2.

So after I received this Laptop I was able to replace about 4 other devices. Then only one I haven't been able to replace is my Desktop that I have for VR(Which was my main intent with this laptop). I found out that the Oculus does not work with the 7577 Dell. The HDMI port is not working with the Nvidia card and not allowing enough power to turn on the headset. it allows Sound but not visual. Severally disappointing due to this since the main reason I bought it was to replace my Desktop for VR. Over all besides the main selling point saying it is VR ready, the laptop works great with games and applications that require more power. I have 32GB ram due to adding another 16GB stick so there is no reason this should not work. Disappointed but still think it was a great deal. Would recommend for anyone that does not use VR.

Bought this with the intention to edit videos/images and game a little bit here and there. Unfortunately this laptop cannot handle either. Lightroom and Premiere Pro are very boggy and slow unless there is little media imported (Less than 30 images/5 minutes worth of HD 60fps video). Another really terrible feature is that the laptop offers 4k res screen but absolutely cannot operate anything while in the highest resolution, so be ready to use 1080p for life. Save yourself the money and go with something else.
