you should change your title, as the "save your money" line leads me to believe i shouldn't buy this and should save my money for another machine. That being said, I am happy for the honest review. It's on sale now in Canada for $1500 CDN and with employee discount it comes out to $1232 plus taxes. There's a G15 with an i9 and a 3070ti for $200 more, but like you said, that G15 got some pretty bad reviews. I am not a hardcore gamer by any means (if i was i probably wouldn't be contemplating the G15/16 and would be on Alienware) but i don't think that I personally would see a huge difference in the 3070Ti vs the 3060 in this machine. I am replacing a 10yr old HP unit with 630M graphics, so anything will be better, and hopefully not melt my knees while resting there.
Excellent vid, great info! I got my G15 a little over a year ago on sale for just over $600 and while it works I'd def like something that performs a bit better while gaming. Right now this laptop is on sale for just over $1k and I am seriously considering based on your review, so thank you!
This thing still looks super futuristic to me. I duno, it ain't about money. I am just a bigger fan of the G series than alienware. Alienware desktops don't even come with integrated graphics cards. This seems more professional for some reason. I have been a dell fanboy since I was a kid. One of these would make my day. hahaha
This is my type of products review that I keep looking for a long time! No bullshit, straight to the right things, my man! Already a fan of your channel P/S: I’m from Asia and English listening skill not really good, hope you consider of make a subtitle for videos in the future. Thanks again my man!
I was willing to stick with my AW17R2 but the mobo cut me short after 8 trusty years. Got the 2023 G16 i9 13900HX 32GB RAM and couldn't be happier ... but then again anything new was gonna be an awesome upgrade from the old AW beast
@kayaksnorkeluk8272 Yeh, it's all good in my view a couple of weeks into it now. I've run 2 virtual machines each configured with 8GB RAM and 2 Processors with 4 Cores each (so total half RAM used and 16 Processor cores utilised) and this model, obviously as the physical host didn't blink ... along with purring VM's. I don't think you'll be disappointed, and I'm sure it'll chew through video edits with ease as well.👍I also transferred a cloned original drive over to a 2TB EVO NVME and chucked another 2TB EVO at it for good measure ... Intel software had a whinge about managing the drive and pulling my leg about a non existant error but that was a simple fix ... uninstall offending Intel whinging software 😁
I got the exact same build except for I got the 16GB ram. I just plan on using it for work and regular home use. Did you have any problems with it overheating? I have seen a lot of people saying that it gets really hot even with light use.@kayaksnorkeluk8271

Great review! Thanks for showing the keyboard all lit up. I'm just glad the CHARACTERS on the keys light up! I hate when the keys are only back lit. You can see where a key is, but can't make out what key it is in the dark.
The screen I saw on the recent Dell Gaming Laptop was terrible, I was thinking of buying due to the low price but the screen made it not worth it and I didn't like the plastic build either
Well, i felt good and sad watching this video from the same Laptop. I only have two issues with this laptop, It overheats and the speaker does not have good bass performance, again the alienware control center is so hard to control, I don't even understand it well, LOL, Subscribing from my second account too as well! Nice Video!
These have definitely gotten some really good sales and way below and more often than their lenovo and asus counterparts in the last few months. This is definitely worse than those laptops it just depends if you can live with the compromises or not really. If you can get it cheap and you will mostly being gaming this is a pretty solid option.
I'm thinking of buying G16 7630 with i9-13th gen with 4070 8GB but I'm not reading many positive reviews. I don't know if only having one NVMe port is fine or not. Then I think it's better to go with Alienware m16 with i9-13th gen and 4070 8GB and pay 300$ more. Both have 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD. What would you recommend?
Nothing major. Only that it’s last year’s model but still performs well with a good display. You can get a deep discount on it since it’s a little older and still have a decent gaming experience.
@@ProTechShawn thank you very much, i just bought the dell g16, however with another config: rtx 4070, i9 13900HX, 32 go ram, 240hz, 1TO ssd. For 2000€ good deal?
"I know why you are here you want Alienware performance but dont want to pay Alienware tax.." IVE NEVER HAD SOMEONE READ MY MIND IN 7 seconds of a YT vid lol
I bought a G16 with the i9 and the RTX 4070. This is after 2 Razer laptops failing on me in the last 3 years. Razer is just plain junk compared to Dell/Alienware.
G16 7630 8gb Rtx4070 13th gen I9-13900hx 16gb 1tb Ssd 16 Inc Qhd+ 165hz Win11 Are you happy with your dell and anyone knows is it possible to see second m2 ?
@@dertlininja I actually asked Dell chat this evening to confirm SSD status as it was a bit ambiguous in the manual/advertising. For the Australian version 7630 this was their reply. ( 3m 31s ) Visitor: Specific question on new G16. 7630 , ( 4m 46s ) Visitor: Previous chat sent me user manual, which is great... But my question in on the SSD configuration in what I will get ( 6m 50s ) Visitor: It says you "could" get a single slot only OR two slots to later add another SSD later ( 7m 13s ) Visitor: But it's not confirmed what I would get?? ( 7m 46s ) Dell Advisor - Ahmedi: Please allow me a moment to check this ( 8m 17s ) Visitor: Thank you ( 12m 3s ) Dell Advisor - Ahmedi: It will come with two slots ( 12m 24s ) Dell Advisor - Ahmedi: One would include a 1TB storage
3:00 Orange G on the lid? Hell no lmao. I dig the understated business asthetic, who honestly needs to flaunt their garish gaming laptop in a Starbucks like a loser? No phat orange G on the lid for me, but Derek Zoolander would be on the waiting list...
I was so happy to buy this computer because I thought, being a loyal Dell purchaser, this laptop was going to be the top of the line purchase. I AM severely dissatisfied and disappointed. Couldn't do a simple task without it overheating. Not even playing a game yet. Fan was replaced now making my $2000+ computer into a refurbished laptop. Now Dell offering to replace the motherboard. It may or may not resolve the issue. I'm making payments now on a refurbished machine. DELL was the brand I bought from for over 20 years. Very disillusioned. Most likely my last Dell machine.
Dense and heavy like a girl that lifts hahahahahahah that was funny. Thanks for my morning kek. Great review. I'm looking at the G16 with the RTX 4060. Kinda tempted after seeing this
