The new Dell G7 and G5 offered with 4K OLED, i9-10980HK and RTX 2070 MQ
Dell has refreshed its G7 series of gaming laptops, now featuring Intel’s 10th Gen Core processors codenamed Comet Lake-H. Two models were announced: G7 17 7700 and G7 15 7500, with 17-inch and 15-inch displays respectively.
The New G7 series will be equipped with up to Core i9-10980HK processors. Optionally you may choose between i7-10750H and 10300H. In terms of graphics, the new laptops feature up to GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q. Other choices include RTX 2060, GTX 1660 Ti and GTX 1650 Ti.
Interestingly, both laptops can be configured with 4K OLED 60 Hz screens and these are 400 nits displays. Unfortunately, the 1080p models, which are IPS-based only offer up to 300 nits, but instead, they are offered with a refresh rate up to 300 Hz, while the 4K panel only offers 60 Hz.
The 17-inch model is not the smallest, nor the lightest laptop available. It weighs 2.85 kgs, which is 350g more than the Alienware M17 R3 model from Dell which is available at a similar starting price.
Both models will launch at 1430 USD in the US. The 17-inch model is available starting from today (June 23), while the 15 variant will go on sale starting June 29th. Bear in mind that availability will depend on the region.

Dell G7 17
Dell G7 15
« press release »
With its myriad of form factors, colors and configurations, the G Series stands out as one of the broadest selections of gaming systems Dell has ever offered. Its appeal parallels the strong growth of the PC gaming industry and the big tent of gamers it welcomes. What’s consistent across the G Series ecosystem is the upscale design, performance muscle and great value – ultimately delivering the best gaming experiences without a significant investment. Dell is introducing the new G7 15/17, a powerful gaming laptop that stands out with its own sophisticated style that can easily go from classroom to gaming.
Completely redesigned – with a slim design, powerful performance and value-added features like customizable chassis light – the new G7 touts significant all-around improvements over the previous gen for on-the-go gaming. As we struggle to squeeze into our swimsuits this summer, the G7 15 is a step ahead, dropping by 4 mm to a svetle 20.5 mm at the hinge, thanks to the innovative hinge design and the black anodized, all-metal chassis construction. The same for its elegant narrow bezel display, going from 9.9 mm to 6.5 mm on G7 15 and 8.16 mm on the 17-inch.
The G7 is powered by the latest 10th Gen Intel Core CPUs (up to i9) and NVIDIA’s GeForce graphic cards (up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 with Max-Q Design on the 15″, or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super on the 17″). Its gameplay experience is enhanced with a precision glass trackpad, customizable chassis lighting and 4-zone RGB keyboard. And a discrete “Game Shift” macro key instantly kicks the fan’s speed into dynamic performance mode for heavy action scenes. Nahimic 3D Audio rounds out the experience with a 360⁰ soundscape with VoiceBoost and Sound Tracker radar. The new G7 17 will be available on June 23 starting at $1,429.99 USD, with the G7 15 available on June 29 starting at $1,429.99 USD.
