Reviews for the Dell G3 15 3579, GTX 1050 Ti, i5-8300H

60% Dell G3 15 Gaming Review
Source: Laptop Mag English Archive.org version
With an 8th Gen processor and GTX 1050 Ti GPU, the Dell G3 15 Gaming packs a lot of power inside its smooth, slim interior. Starting under $700, you also get solid battery life and some pretty decent speakers to blast your favorite Spotify playlist. Unfortunately, the laptop's dull display and low-travel keyboard hold it back.

The Dell G3 15 Gaming is a budget gaming laptop that packs a punch with its performance and battery life, but it suffers from a very dull display.

Source: PC World English Archive.org version
It’s not the thinnest, lightest, or most powerful gaming laptop on the market, and we wish its 15.6-inch screen were brighter, but for just $750, the GTX 1050 Ti-powered Dell G3 packs an impressive punch.

Bottom line, it’s hard to recommend the G3. Unless you’re really need the specific looks, I’d stay away. If you do want a professional looking machine, I’d wait for other models like Asus or HP or go with an eGPU setup. Alternatively, increase the budget.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile: Mainstream graphics card based on Nvidia's Pascal architecture and successor to the GeForce GTX 965M. Is manufactured in a 14nm process at Samsung and the technical specifications are very similar to the desktop version.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.

68.33%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
