Dell G15 Ryzen Edition Gaming Laptop (2021) Consumer Review....DON'T DO IT!!!

Ғылым және технология

Finally done with the review of the Dell G15 (2021)! Spoiler Alert, I am NOT impressed!!!! Keep in mind there are a few variations of this laptop out there so if you don’t have this EXACT model, the performance doesn’t apply to you. Everything else is the same.
Specs:
AMD Ryzen 7 5800H
8GB RAM
512GB SSD
RTX 3050Ti 4GB (60W)
15.6" FHD Display with 120Hz

    Honest opinion, its a really good laptop. I literally had no problems with mine at all. RTX 3050 with 120 hz, I get it there's better pcs and laptops but honestly this is worth the money. Without a doubt the best purchase I've made

    Good point but my point is to not waste your $1K+ on this. If you're strapped on a budget then you should be looking at the 20 series which performs better than this (without RT). Don't get a 3050 laptop just for the sake of the saying you have a 30 series. Get one that can perform to your standard.

    I mean not everyone has the finances to experience the $2000+ asking price of "premium" machines. Aesthetics are a personal thing and its one of my favorite looking gaming laptops around. It's gamery but not in the cringe way some manufacturers go overboard with: its understated and "chill" imo. The texture is nice to the touch to me, and for the $800 sale going on rn I'm glad I grabbed one. It feels like a tank compared to the Ideapad 3, which is a great laptop too but I'd feel safer lugging this around and accidentally dropping it

    For $800, yes, that's a great price, but not for the newly released price of $1300w/taxes I paid for it. I even had somebody message me and said they paid $650 for one. That's the price range where this laptop should've been from the beginning. There are other laptops out there that were the same price or maybe a little more (but certainly not $2K) that outperformed and were built much better. Look no further than an used ASUS G14 which is about $1000 now. BUT, Dell's CS is superior and they have the $$$ backing so if you have issues with it, you should be good.

At the very least I'm glad that now its a reasonably priced alternative for an Alienware shell which is a selling point for people who like the way those computers look.

    I found mine on BestBuy's site at $700. Haven't had a single issue since setup. The catch: I use an external mic, kb+m, monitor, and headset stand (2 usb ports). Also I have no issue with the grey color, I love the material feel as well. I had a $300 certified pre-owned HP i3-8xxx with 8GB of RAM and 1TB HDD beforehand. This was definitely a quality upgrade for me. With tweaking fan curves, I will be able to keep this laptop cool as well. Fan noise isn't an issue for me, I could care less as long it doesn't thermal throttle. Don't get me wrong, you're reviewing based off of other products you have had come through. And that's completely justified. If you want, you could make a couple caveats in your vids for people like me that just need it as a base system if you can find it at a good sale price. Some of us are extremely non picky other than the specs we 100% need. So it's aight that you can't think of a review for everyone.

I bought it for my GF as her first gaming laptop. She loves it! I thought it was a great deal overall. It actually performs extremely well, surprisingly. It gave my recently sold 2021 scar 17 with a 3070 a run for its money when gaming at 1080p. I’m sure it performs much better than the 3050 ti version. But yeah, there are definitely some compromises with it. My GF wouldn’t be able to tell tho 😅

I also disabled boost and my temps NEVER go above 75/75. Boost off I get 8700 in timespy and with boost on 9150. The 5155 g15 is a killer laptop.

    @@tac6044 Absolutely.. They are an amazing laptop for the $$ I got mine direct from Dell and it was either 10 or 15% off from memory, which came to less than $2k AUD Which is phenomenal - other similarly specced laptops were $350+ dearer without a mux switch like the ASUS TUF.. and I actually sold my ASUS TUF to purchase the Dell G15 is miles ahead in every aspect from build quality to fan noise, compatibility etc than my ASUS was. I must say though your temps at 75degrees Celcius are amazing, how did you get those temps? Every review I have seen they say it gets to high 90s and even 100... I bought the Targus chill cooling pad for mine, mainly for ergonomics and the ability to use it in bed, on the couch etc. My temps were high 90s CPU and mid 80s GPU before the pad under full heavy load and with the pad it runs about 8 degrees cooler on both CPU and GPU.. AMD have stated the 5800H will happily run in the 90s 24/7 as they are built too, and Dell sets the thermal limit high for maximum performance so I'm not concerned at all about the temps, but would love to know how yours runs at 75? Or is that not underload ? Mine runs very cool when just web browsing, watching Netflix or using MS Office etc - the fans don't even kick in as it runs so cool.

Lenovo has 16Gb RAM while Dell is at 32Gb (I'm not really inclined to upgrade). Equal amount of editing work and gaming, not heavy on either. They're at the same price where I'm at (just about $40 difference) and those are the best available choices on stock within my budget.

    Ha ha ha okay man I watched this review. I'm having the exact opposite impression of this laptop. I hate Dell but think they did great with this one, almost all other reviewers agree. You need to do better at benchmarking, you spent almost no time on it. The benchmarking you did is greatly underwhelming. I also suspect you are running with less than optimal settings. I get killer performance from mine. On a 1440p monitor there hasn't been one single aaa game it has struggled with including Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk is the hardest game to run on the planet and I get over 60fps high at 1440p. Most other games over 100fps at 1440p. Hell I can post my timespy scores for verification. Dell deserves hate but not for this laptop. I also think the design is great along with the aesthetic look. The 165hz screen is far above average and the build quality is better than anything else at this price. You're tripping!

    I bought this 2 days ago, in the same store I asked for a ram and nvm2 update, now I have 1 TB nvm2 and 16 ram (which is not enough for me, now I know it), my impressions: - It got frozen twice when I was downloading LoL, so frustrating the first day. - I can play warzone but, with only 16gb ram I cant go to ultra quality yet, keep that in mind. I mean, maybe you can if you close all your apps. But I dont like to do that. - I hate to not have rgb, I just realized that. - I hate Windows 11 (first time using it) , my hyperx software doesn't works there, havent tried my logitech software yet, but I am expecting same result. -------------- In the other hand, I think gamers can enjoy very well this laptop playing at 120 fps most of time (this become a rule with a few updates, except with flight simulator and ram demanding games, where you will need a huge update of ram). But I guess I am not so gamer... Probably I am mostly just a code developer... And this is too much for me... Coming from my Lenovo with 6 years old that still works perfectly even battery...

But for this price I think is probably one of the best sales, and yes Windows 11 sux, but we have to start dealing with the future. I would like to test a Rtx 3060 laptop for my self and then I could tell you which one is worth it (specially for the temperature). For now I am enjoying this one. If you dont want to play AAA games at ultra quality with 144hz or so, you will be fine, but if you want to, I recommend you to do, at least, an update of ram to have 32gb in total. If you dont want to waste that much of money, a 1650 ti laptop can have similar results, but its a little bit different. This one is better designed, almost not having high temperatures (after a simple bios update), better software, better architecture and latest technologies. Pd: with this laptop you coud even stream in high quality LoL or Minecraft with no problems. Good luck.

    @@fatiharslandas3049 you can get either 10th or 11th. Dell g15 is a brand, every year or whatever they update the hardware. Pay attention to which one you buy so you dont get an older model. Also, after 2.5 months, the laptop has been perfect!

    @@paulsebastiancalleeremiev4468 No, eso no es lo que quize decir. Puedes confiar que la placa que DELL puso en tu maquina es de la misma calidad que las que traen el logotipo de Alienware. El logotipo no le da ningun poder de mas a las placas. Y lo que tu sientes sobre que tu placa no tiene el logotipo, es el sentimiento sobre el que DELL cuenta para vender la marca de Alienware. Las maquinas que venden bajo la marca de Alienware traen lo mismo que las maquinas normales de DELL, solo pagas por un poco por la estetica, y bastante por la marca. Internamente son lo mismo. Sientete orgulloso de tener una maquina DELL que es la misma calidad que una Alienware, sin haber pagado por la marca.

    Dont compare your dislikes of a budget laptop with a RTX 3050 to any 3060 or above or for that matter any laptop that cost 1500bucks lol..... This is a budget gamer, the RTX 3050 is to replace the GTX 1650 which it is 50% faster & has DLSS which does fantastic at bumping your fps up.... this laptop isnt to win the beauty pagent at 700 bucks man show me a better laptop at 700 bucks and ill delete my comment. Your comparing apples to oranges someone that drives a lamborgini then hops in a v6 mustang.

    This laptop was actually $1300 bucks after taxes. I can show you a slew of machines that are better than this starting off with last years ASUS G14 which should be well under $700 used.
