There are some great offers right now on laptops among early Black Friday deals. One of the highlights of the Black Friday gaming laptop deals is being able to buy the Dell G15 gaming laptop for $800 instead of $1,000 at Dell. A great laptop for anyone wanting to game on a budget, the Dell G15 gaming laptop is a tempting gift for the holidays. Here’s what it has to offer so you know if it’s the one for you.
While it’s Dell’s subsidiary Alienware that features in our look at the best gaming laptop brands, you’ll still see Dell at the top of our look at the best laptop brands. With the Dell G15, you get a reliable design and some good hardware. This particular model has a 13th-generation Intel Core i5-13450HX processor, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB of SSD storage. It’s particularly good to see 1TB of storage space as that’s pretty much the minimum you want while gaming as so many games require a lot of space these days.
Talking of gaming, the Dell G15 gaming laptop has an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU. It’s certainly not the most powerful GPU, and in an ideal world it’s smart to avoid GeForce GPUs ending in 50, but at this price it makes perfect sense to see it here. It goes well alongside the Dell G15 gaming laptop’s 15.6-inch full HD screen with 165Hz refresh rate, 100% sRGB color, and 3ms response time. Adding to the gamer aesthetic, there’s also an orange backlit keyboard with numeric keypad.
Sure, the Dell G15 gaming laptop isn’t one of the best gaming laptops, but at this price, it’s pretty appealing. It has the Alienware Command Center installed with a Game Shift macro key for boosting performance as needed. There’s also an Alienware-inspired advanced thermal design with four heat pipes and improved fans for excellent cooling.
Usually priced at $1,000, the Dell G15 gaming laptop is down to $800 for a limited time only at Dell. The 20% discount is highly respectable and unlikely to stick around for long. If you’re in the market for an affordable gaming laptop, tap the button below right now before the deal ends.
Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.
Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
Google DeepMind's AI world model Genie 4 can now build interactive worlds that you can explore and reshape as they run. It also generates ambient sounds, music, and dialogue that respond to your actions.
The new world model builds on Genie 3 with improved realism, more natural human movement, and better simulations of real-world physics. It could eventually help with everything from game development to training robots.
Apple has an incredible talent for making me admire its products while simultaneously questioning what on earth it's thinking with the pricing. This isn't even something as bizarre as a monitor stand, but the audacity for starting a new laptop lineup from $2,000 doesn't surprise me.
The newly announced 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 is just the latest to showcase this. The funny thing is, I already know that it's going to be a reliable workstation. You get a powerful new 2nm M6 processor, a gorgeous Liquid Retina XDR display, and up to 24 hours of battery life. We were impressed by the M5 MacBook Air, so the high-end M6 powered MacBook Pro definitely won't let us down.
