Powerful laptops should eliminate all gamer aesthetics like this. Very ergonomic design for ABM students.

Your thoroughness and attention to detail are so impressive.

Great in depth review. Heading to college next semester to study Electrical Engineering, and this seems like a good laptop for that but also for some lighter gaming for someone who comes from Xbox. Probably getting the FHD i7 with 8gig ram and 256g SSD. I have an external drive for games and can also just use OneDrive for docs and other files. Great and very helpful video 👍

I recently made the switch from apple! Extremely excited for this laptop!

Only current issue is it keeps going to sleep. No particular time. Initially thought it was due to updates and program downloads but it did so also after I plugged in an external hard drive???

Changed battery/sleep/hibernate settings and still occurs. I’ll be contacting dell support later this evening regarding this issue

Thorough review! I enjoyed the video! Thank you

[TallyHoTech]

Finally get a chance to watch it. Great stuff. Still one of my Favs

[durangopack]

I literally just ordered this exact laptop on Black Friday!

[DrakeShiraishi]

Thank you! I watched this on my XPS 15 7590

[falken]

Just got the 32gb ram, 1tb SSD m.2 nvme, i7.9750h and gtx1650, uhd touch ips screen on BF. I'll tell you how it goes when it arrives. Estimated delivery on the 18th. :)

Just bought this on Black Friday! Really excited to get it for video editing!

[lancehunter]

Another really thorough review, thank you! Any chance you could test this model's main competitor- HP Spectre X360 15t AMOLED GTX 1650?? Thanks again for all your efforts to make these quality reviews. Your channel is where I stop first to get the details of systems I'm interested in.

Have this laptop 4K touch display. It’s amazing. Although, when I got it, I immediately noticed a weird lag on the display and after weeks figured out that it was the display resolution.

For anyone experiencing weird lag (you can tell if you open the settings application while in dark mode and minimize and maximize), simply downscale your resolution.

You don’t need it to run at 4K all the time anyway & it helps with thermals as well.

Hope this helps anyone with the same issue!

This Black Friday i finally bought my new laptop :)
I choose the HP pavilion 15 with the Ryzen 7 3750H, the GTX 1660 ti Max-Q, 16 gb of RAM, 256 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD for only 900 euro (996 $). Is not the top laptop, but at this price is a good deal :)
Anyway, good review as always and thanks for all the info in all yours reviews :)

Hey Jarod! Love your reviews! It would be great if you could include rendering times and video editing performances. It will help creators, editors and filmmakers to choose better. Again, great videos. Keep it up!

[nikhilpatel]

I could've given you a real-life review mate. I have the exact same specs and my device works really well. The performance is amazing and trust me I know. I've been doing high-quality production work for companies for a long time and no other device can match the performance this laptop has. You had a review unit, which has been stressed and tested a lot, which reduces it's overall performance.

[vasylzhydun]

I have 9560 right now, totally love the machine.
Waiting for new 2020 redesigned model, fingers crossed for 17 inches one🤞

[JayzBeerz]

Great review as always Jarrod. Happy holidays to you my friend.

[MrEllvin]

Thanks for so detailed video! It is what I was looking for.

[maverickwatchreviews]

Fantastic review. Two questions: 1). Did I see correctly that the laptop is too thin to have an ethernet port? Is a dongle provided and if not which one do you use? Also what is the game you're playing starting @:30 when you're explaining the specs? Thanks so much.

[AppleMenace]

Not bad seems Dell did ok with this iteration although I still can't afford it 🤷‍♂️
