Pros and Cons

Asus ROG Strix G15

Strengths

The machine has a respectable build quality it's designed to last
It doesn't feel cheap or finicky like the Asus Nitro does for example
I really appreciate the fact that Asus includes a high-quality trackpad and keyboard which also makes this versatile for doing non-gaming activities
The Ryzen 9 chip definitely blew me away, the performance is fantastic it can breeze through both gaming and non-gaming intensive tasks
It's relatively quiet with fan noise staying around 21 decibels under idle loads

Weaknesses

Unfortunately the display on this base configuration does leave a lot to be desired particularly in the brightness department
The four gigabytes of vram with the rtx 3050 card here can be a little underwhelming for some games and may restrict you from hitting that 144 hertz
Battery life is poor, dropping to around 1.5 hours on average when gaming
Stereo speaker setup is underwhelming in terms of volume levels and clarity
Display brightness could be better

Dell Vostro 15 3510

Strengths

Has a good reason for being sold
A budget brand that is affordable at £500
Available with an i5 processor, 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD
Running Windows Pro, suitable for business use
Has a decent amount of storage capacity with a 256GB SSD
Good for occasional use or personal projects
Can be used with older docking stations that have USB ports
A well-known brand with a good reputation

Weaknesses

Poor build quality, with a flexing keyboard and weak hinge
Has the build quality of a Kinder egg toy
Cheap plastic parts throughout the laptop
No USB-C port, making it less compatible with newer devices
The docking station required for office use is proprietary and expensive
Only provided with a return-to-base warranty, increasing maintenance costs
The battery life is small and poor quality
RAM and SSD are of poor quality, affecting overall performance

The ASUS ROG Strix G15 is a formidable gaming laptop that packs a punch in terms of performance and features. Equipped with the powerful Ryzen 9 processor, 16GB of RAM, and NVIDIA RTX 3050 graphics card, it's designed to deliver silky-smooth gameplay at high refresh rates.

Dell Vostro 15 3510

Dell's Vostro series has long been positioned as a budget-friendly alternative to the Latitude line, catering to home users and occasional office workers. However, with the latest 15-3510 model, I believe Dell is attempting to blur these lines, potentially misleading customers into thinking it's a viable business device. In this review, I'll examine whether the Vostro 15-3510 truly lives up to its intentions or if it's simply a cheap laptop masquerading as something more.
