The budget-friendly Dell G15 gaming laptop just got even more affordable

The Dell G15 gaming laptop with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card and 8GB of RAM is on sale from Dell for only $600 after a $300 discount.

There are gaming laptop deals for top-of-the-line machines, but there are also offers that make budget-friendly models even more affordable. Here’s one from Dell — a $300 discount on the Dell G15 with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card, which brings its price down from $900 to just $600. The savings won’t be around forever though, so if you’re interested in this device, you should go ahead and complete your purchase as soon as you can.

The Dell G15 is showcased in our roundup of the best gaming laptops as the best budget gaming laptop under $1,000. It provides decent performance, with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card pairing with the 13th-generation Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM. You won’t be able to play the best PC games at their highest settings — in fact, you may have to choose the lowest settings for the more demanding titles — but for such an affordable device, that’s an acceptable trade-off.

The 15.6-inch screen of the Dell G15 provides Full HD resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, which are solid specifications for gaming, and the device also comes with a 512GB SSD for ample storage space for multiple titles and all of their optional DLCs. The gaming laptop also ships with Windows 11 Home out of the box, which means you can start installing video games right after powering it on for the first time. For your accessories, the Dell G15 features a mixture of USB-A and USB-C ports, a headset port, and an HDMI port.

The Dell G15 gaming laptop is an excellent choice for gamers on a tight budget, and it’s an even more tempting purchase right now because of Dell’s discount. Its configuration with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card is on sale at $300 off, which further lowers its price to only $600 from $900 originally. The offer may disappear at any moment though, so if you want to buy the Dell G15 gaming laptop for this special price, you need to finish your transaction immediately.

The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.

The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.

Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.

"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.

I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.

However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
