Pros and Cons

GIGABYTE U4

Strengths

The laptop is super lightweight, making it easy to carry around.
It has a fast boot up time, allowing me to get to work instantly.
The CPU and GPU are decent enough for general workload and occasional gaming.
The keyboard type style is soft and comfortable to type on.
The battery life keeps me going throughout the day.

Weaknesses

The laptop can get a little hot above the keyboard after being on for a good few hours.
The cooling system has a small fan that may not be sufficient for high-performance tasks.
The speakers lack bass, but do provide decent volume and clear dialogue.
The webcam's video quality is nice and sharp, but there are some minor concerns with inconsistent light.
The laptop may struggle to play high-performance games due to its hardware limitations.

Dell G15

Strengths

This laptop is performing where it should be, especially in gaming. It can handle games at QHD with no problem.
The battery life kind of sucks, but it does everything else pretty well if you have a lower expectation.
It has good performance for an RTX 4060, and there's enough ports to use them.
The fan noise is interesting because if you have it on turbo mode it's obviously going to get loud, but you can switch to balanced or quiet profile to be quieter.
It does well in terms of heat, sitting around 91 to 92 degrees Celsius, which is a little bit harder than I'd like it to be.

Weaknesses

The battery life is probably its weakest point, only getting three hours and five minutes before needing to charge.
The G key automatically takes you in and out of turbo mode without any indication that pops up when you're in turbo mode.
There's no Thunderbolt 4 Port, which might be a drawback for some users.
The battery life is very short compared to other laptops, especially considering its price point.
Even though it has good performance, the Dell G5 is not a bad laptop but based on its price point I'd still try to find a laptop that's on sale from last year.

GIGABYTE U4

The Gigabyte U4 laptop is a super lightweight, durable, and efficient machine designed for boosting productivity on-the-go. Its compact design, weighing in at just 990 grams, makes it easy to carry around in a small bag or backpack. Powered by an 11th gen Intel Core i7 processor, this laptop delivers fast performance, making it perfect for office work, school, or remote tasks.

Dell G15

The Dell G5 is an intriguing laptop that promises good performance without breaking the bank. Equipped with an RTX 4060 GPU, it's capable of playing games at 1920x1080 resolution and handling demanding titles like Starfield. However, its battery life falls short, lasting only around three hours. The laptop's price point is also a consideration, as last year's models with more powerful GPUs may be available for similar prices or even cheaper.
