Dell G15 5530 (2023) Overview:

Design and Display

The space where Dell put the new G-series of gaming laptops on display was full of retro arcade machines for the 80s-inspired laptops to blend in. You heard it right — Dell is breaking the norm of mean and even professional-looking gaming laptops. The latest G-series laptops are all clad in 80’s pop aesthetics. This way, the company has created a unique blend of modern build with restoring aesthetics hardly seen in today’s gaming laptops.

In particular, the new Dell G15 gaming laptop arrives in three colors: Dark Shadow Gray (with Black thermal shelf), Quantum White (with Deep Space Blue thermal shelf), and Pop Purple (with Neo Mint thermal shelf).

Opening the lid, you are greeted with a 15.6-inch LCD screen with FHD resolution. The base variant of the G15 5530 refreshes at 120Hz, while there is also a 165Hz variant that you can get for a higher price. Both use the same anti-glare panel, but the 165Hz variant is slightly brighter (300 nits > 250 nits) and has TUV certification.

Performance and Cooling

Under the hood, Dell G15 5530 (2023) packs the latest Intel “Raptor Lake” HX-series mobile processors. Here, you get the Intel Core i5-13450HX and Core i9-13900HX at the extreme ends, with a couple of Core i7 in between. This is paired with the latest GeForce RTX 40-series GPU, but Dell is yet to pinpoint the actual SKUs in use.
