Pros and Cons

Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7440

Strengths

This has been a nice pleasant surprise, especially a good bank for the buck here we like to see in 2024 when laptops are so expensive
sharp brighter than expected display
a Sleek lightweight design
a nice solid overall performance here with good graphics performance again with that Intel arc graphics
outstanding battery life
it has a comfortable keyboard and touchpad

Weaknesses

the ram is not upgradeable, that is pretty much part for the course here in 2024
it has HDMI 1.4 not the more Modern Standard 2.1 which would give you more options
you're going to have to contend with that fan noise reaching as high as 53 maybe even 54 DB which is quite noticeable under load
the speakers I would say are surprisingly good not the greatest speakers I've ever heard but pretty good for this price point in this category
the ram is not upgradeable that is pretty much part for the course here in 2024 and it has HDMI 1.4 not the more Modern Standard 2.1
it has HDMI 1.4 not the more Modern Standard 2.1 which would give you more options

Dell G7 17

Strengths

The 17 inch gaming laptops are the best, they're probably the best for content creation as well all comes down to screen size
It comes with an intel i7 8 750 h2 that's a 6 core 45 watt CPU and our TX 2060, full fat our TX 2016 not mxq which is like pushing at high settings FPS beyond 1070 max cues
The performance difference in gaming between the eighth and ninth generation is so small, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference unless you benchmark it
It comes with 16 gigabytes dual-channel of course you can upgrade that, replace the hard drive or SSD if you want m2 SSD in here as well all upgradable memory
The temperatures get up pretty high when running Cinebench or long runs but still maintains 3.9 GHz when gaming, which is awesome for performance
It has a good display with 60 Hertz and decent sound, plus all the ports you need like USB, SD card reader, full-size HDMI out, mini DisplayPort out and Thunderbolt 3

Weaknesses

The display is not gonna be as good as the premium laptops and it's an entry-level one so your angles aren't like the premium
The RGB keyboard is not that bright to be perfectly honest but it doesn't look juvenile
It gets hot when running Cinebench or long runs which can maintain 3.9 GHz when gaming, temperatures get up pretty high
If you under volt the CPU it will just boost higher and the temperatures will go up because it'll just give you the maximum performance even if you under bolt
The thermals are not as good as some other laptops but it's still a great performer
It's a 17 inch laptop which is a commitment, but the gaming experience is awesome
