The Dell G16 is a new gaming laptop that the American company introduced together with the refreshed Alienware that we presented to you yesterday. If we engage in your promotion, “It’s designed for PC gamers who need basic features and want mobility and performance without sacrificing screen size”.

The Dell G16 joins the trend of using size 16 inch screen on laptops. A format that allows us to approach large 17-inch laptops in terms of display capacity, but with a real footprint close to 15-inch laptops. For this, bevel reduction is mandatory and in this model reaches three of its sides.

Dell uses the perfect resolution for this screen size, QHD+ for 2560 x 1600 pixels and a 16:10 aspect ratio, which we like better than the more usual 16:9. Its refresh rate, important for video game performance, is also quite correct and rising 165 Hz.

In terms of internal hardware, the Dell G16 is equipped with a processor Intel Core i7-12700H 14-core Alder Lake series and dedicated NVIDIA graphics in several models to choose from up to the RTX 3070 Ti. If you’re not gaming and don’t need that much power, the laptop features Advanced Optimus, which allows the G16 to switch between the integrated GPU and discrete RTX as needed, helping to extend battery life.

It is equipped to keep temperatures under control Thermal elements inspired by those used by their older Alienware brothers, such as copper pipes, four vents and ultra-thin fan blades to optimize cooling and maximize airflow. It is equipped with a dedicated hard button that instantly increases the performance of the cooling system.

It also has other features inspired by its gaming flagships such as Alienware Command Center which provides easy access to game settings, peripheral lighting settings, Dolby Audio and the game library. Finally, let’s mention the new keyboard options such as CherryMX, zone option, RGB per key or mechanical keyboard with an ultra-low profile.

The Dell G16 will be available in select regions starting July 21 at an introductory price $1,399. It will offer configurations with 8, 16 and 32 GB of RAM and up to 2 TB of storage capacity using an SSD. You should then go to the Dell Spain website.
