Dell Laptop Deals & Offers

Oh well, deals over . Missed that one...

Ah yeah I got the i5-8250u sorry about that didnt realise it was the 10th gen

But the CPU in this was launched in Q3 2019?

LOL got one too but for £280

Sometimes it can take a while.

I have no idea, but being a pc user that money for that card seems scandalous

What would you recommend for similar price ?

£800 for a 1650 .... *pukes*

I’d read about a new model but it’s the G5 15 SE that I’m looking out for. Thanks.

I got a G3 with the same specs for just over £600. The G5 is a much better design, and works out about £50 more if you get the cheaper version and use Topcashback. Worth it.

I only buy a laptop mainly for use on planes or at the airport so plenty big for me.

Thanks, I think one of the above. If I select offers it says sorry there are no offers available for this card. :( I think the extra £100 off would have tipped the balance to buying the new XPS 15 4k I've been eyeing up. Maybe I'll wait until they do an AMD version.

Sure. If you log in the app, you will see 5 options across the bottom. One of those is 'offers' and it'll be listed there. If its not it could be as you say you haven't used it, or the type of amex (mine is platinum cashback, so it may vary offers)

Could you point me in the right direction for this. I've a Corp Card which I've never actually used. I've just installed the app but can't see anything about discounts valid for me. Could it be as I've never used the card.

Only 13 inches

Yeah not great really, considering my Medion Erazer X6807 with 6GB 1060 cost £699 nearly a year ago now

No, Only the one with an offer and you have to accept the offer as well.

Is it any Amex card you need for this it a specific rewards card?

G5 with the 9300H and 1650 for £854.69 (with DAILYMAIL8 as this coupon doesn't work) seems like better value, £754.69 with Amex The 1050 is pretty bad. Also the 9300H runs EXTREMELY hot, especially in the G3. Maxing out at 100C while gaming even with a -.165v undervolt and re-paste.Only stays below 80 if you disable turbo boost. GPU stays at ~70-80C even at 1900MHz with GPU boost. Personally I would wait for Ryzen 4000 series machine. I'll be selling this when a Ryzen 4000 laptop (other than one by ASUS) comes out.

When I had a look at laptops today...I felt that the prices were a bit higher than usual too! :/

They offer either, but I went for a refund.

Seems to be unavailable now. But I also noticed in the tech specs the screen is WVA, but description says IPS. 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) Anti-glare LED Backlight Non-touch Narrow Border WVA Display

Thanks for that. Did you have to have a refund rather then replacement?

Estimate ship date ...02.07. (?!)

Expired? Getting an error when adding to cart

This!

Had to escalate the case to Ebay to get my item returned which took some time. Fire away if you had the effort and time!

Can't really go wrong

Actually in this case not necessarily. The 620 deal is probably better on paper, although there's a difference between Damaged Box and Refurb, assuming sellers are on the level.

Free returns... PayPal protection...

There are better PCs around the price that'll have atleast a 1650 super in it. Would be easier if you stated with 2/3 titles you're talking about too

For the GPU

Can still use code NUSBIGSALE

I work at a computer retailer. Shame I didn't see this sooner, but everyone should avoid these like the plague. There seems to be some fundamental problem with the 5000 series mainboards, as they seem to kill their otherwise healthy storage drives and LCD backlights very quickly. It is an issue that seems to have persisted since the 8th gen Intel models were released.

Those are not the new AMD 2020 Ryzen 4000 series, you’re listing older 3000 series.

Anyone have any links to such a laptop at that price?

Oh yes it was the new Ryzen 7 4800H I was looking at. Cheers for the advice :)

I would go for a I7 9750h or Ryzen 5 4600h as a minimum, with a 1660ti as a minimum at £1k Avoid Ryzen 7 3750h like the plague

My situation here is that I’ve been wanting to get a gaming machine around the £1000 mark for a couple of months, got back into gaming recently having not really played much on PC since around the mid-2000s (completed GTA San Andreas on PC around that time) - more recently been playing on the Xbox and more casual games with my kids as they grow up. So have been getting familiar with all the recent info and it’s a total minefield! I think I have figured out that what I want is (I appreciate this is an odd order but some things are easier to fathom than others): 16gb ram Min 512 SSD / probably 1tb (no traditional HDD) The new Ryzen 7 4800H looks ridiculous in the benchmarks so probably that, but so far everything I’ve seen is well over £1000 and misses out on my other features A faster screen so 120/144Hz, 1080p is fine It looks like having the FreeSync/G-sync is a good option And then as for the GPU - well that is where I am totally stuck! Probably thinking all of this in a laptop just because I can move it around the house then. But yeah what a minefield!

I agree, and it’s made worse by the disparity between laptop and desktop parts. Perhaps they should name them differently. For example on desktop a 1070 and 1660ti trade blows with a RTX 2060 being a fair bit better than both But on laptop there is practically zero difference between a 1660ti and 2060, with a 1070 having a clear lead unless it’s a Max Q Bonkers

Just got my £100 AMEX credit!

Honestly it strikes me as a bit flimsy, but as long as you arent chucking it around or opening and closing it like you're hammering a brick, it should be fine. Once open it's very stable, same when closed. Just the hinges being central makes it feel a bit flimsy when moving.

How's the hinge on it? I've just seen a lot of people saying their hinge broke within a few months and Dell won't fix it

Heh, would you look at that. Mine definately says 144hz so I've been back through my order as it lists everything separately and I did order the 1049 one. Oops. Happy mistake a suppose. Didnt realise I had an extra hard drive. Haha.

I just checked with support, he said only the £1049 version has a 144Hz screen, but now it's out of stock (1 month delivery time) I'll just go with the £979 version. Still a good deal at £773 with AMEX + Topcashback, and 144Hz would just be a massive bonus :D

Well, not exactly half price and not the same cpu (but tbh no much difference between the i5 and i7 ), they are both going to be worse than AMD competitors, though. I also assume that the 13'', 2in1 factor, premium built, better and brighter (touch)screen, better wifi card, touchpad, camera as well as genuine windows 10 license have not been taken into account. Btw I also ordered the Ideapad 15, with the metal palmrest but I don't expect anywhere near the same quality finish as the XPS' . XPS is a macbook competitor (in fact, better than the new, heat-sink and fan divorced 2020 macbook) , on the other hand the Ideapads are budget machines so shouldn't even be compared, they are not in the same league.

14" with 2GB MX350 GPU here, for half the price and double the specs and same CPU (512gb/16GB DDR3200/All metal case/95w Type C fast charger etc) https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/ideapad-5-i5-1035g12gb-mx350-14-ips-100-srgb-16gb-3200-512gb-pci-e-metal-bklite-fpnt-95w-type-c-at-lenovo-with-codes-51434-3445750?page=26#comment-40545013

:D :D

Sexy laptop but a 1500 flag chip with 8 RAM when the Lenovo deal has 16 for 500 quid I expect 32 at this price! And the AMD 7 whips the intel to the floor Only thing going for this is the sexy physical form. It’s like a blonde with big bo.bs but that’s about it but can’t converse or otherwise

And 8gb not enough

Same happened for me. It said it was already used 😫

Code expired?

Where did you here that rubbish?

Are you sure this works? When I entered it, it said it was already used? 😔

Says: AMD Ryzen 5 4500U Processor for me not ryzen 7 4800u Also it's much bigger at 15.6", this isn't always practical for people

"so you’ll be able to send emails" Good to know :-)

American Keyboard

yeh those lenovo deals have pretty much killed any other laptop deal this week.

Type into search function: Lenovo

Given all the Lenovo machines posted today nothing else can compare unfortunately.

I'd wait untill more of these new ryzens come on for sale.

I’ve checked some reviews. Apparently this laptop have some big thermal issues. Despite I posted the deal. I would not recommend

Link?

This is an OK deal given the current market, but not the best deal out there. I've just ordered a laptop with the same processor, 16gb ram, same storage but 7200 HDD, and with a RTX2060 instead which along with the RAM are the main benefits, and that was for a grand.

Boys! I’ve got 1K max to spend on a gaming laptop. Needs to be spent wisely. Help me out in my time of need

'most people' don't even know what a graphics card is! (lol)

Yea clearly it can do Netflix @ 4K, given its i7 spec. You're right, suggesting otherwise is just nonsense! People post derogatory comments when they want to feel better about their own, usually alteernative purchases.

This laptop can definitely play 4K Netflix. Get the right processor (7th gen or higher) , Windows 10 and HDCP 2.2. This laptop has all of those. I dunno why people who aren't 'experts' insist on continuing to post misleaing information...

any chance to get this offer at amazon or argos??

Cpu couldn't possibly manage netflix. Nvidia told me so.

Not voted. Lot of money for 2000 ryzen series with 4000 series round the corner. Good all rounder otherwise. I got an inspiron 3000 15 a few years back for £330 brand new from Dell with 8gb of ram and latest intel cpu. With that in mind it was on promotion.

Price has gone up. Expired (highfive)

Is a code needed for this? Now showing £314..

Yes, Good price for the spec (y)

I am not a big fun of Dell this is a very good price for the spec

screen looks awful! wouldn't call those faint marks

Good price for the spec, but I'm not sure about the condition of the screen.

Thx for the heads up
