Laptop Selection: Dell Inspiron 5577 i7-7700HQ / 16GB VS. HP OMEN i7-7700HQ 8GB

Hello all

The topic of my today's post is to compare DELLA and HP laptops. Considering the parameters - they are very similar .. An additional advantage may be a package of 3 free games included with DELLA, and twice the amount of RAM memory. I haven't dealt with any of the Inspiron and Omen models so far, so I'd appreciate any advice My budget is already very tight, so PLN 4,500 would be the absolute maximum.

I will use my laptop for browsing the Internet, watching series and movies, sometimes for games, the quality of workmanship and general aesthetics are secondary advantages for me, but I would rather not want a creaking monster. Cooling is also important when playing more demanding games, I will certainly take this into account when buying. I took the offers from the x-com, both models have the GeForce GTX 1050 and two drives: one hdd 1000gb, the second ssd 128gb.

Thanks in advance for all replies

Hello. I would recommend Dell Inspiron 15 5577 15.6 "Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-7700HQ - 16GB RAM - 512GB SSD - GTX1050 Graphics - Win10 than all the HP ones.

Thanks for the answer, one more thing puzzles me - the IPS matrix in HPku. Will the image quality be good enough to be considered a key benefit?

You can easily cut the magic of "IPS" in laptops, where viewing angles look like in stationary monitors. I haven't checked this HP OMEN i7-7700HQ 8GB laptop model yet.

I suggest you take a look at these HP OMEN and Dell laptops

If I were to buy a laptop, I would pay attention to e.g. whether an IPS display is installed.
I have been using two laptops with IPS matrices for a long time, and previously I had devices with TN matrices at my disposal and I know the difference in the quality of the viewed image between the IPS matrix and TN ..
Yes, IPS panels differ in terms of performance and parameters (e.g. percentage coverage of the RGB scale or luminance), but they will always surpass TN panels in terms of larger viewing angles, contrast, color saturation, a wide range of colors, brightness of the image ...

Right, the IPS matrix in a laptop will undoubtedly be appreciated. I also found today the della 7577 model for 3800 on the x-com, only this model has an Intel core i5-7300HQ and an ordinary gtx1050. What do you think about this processor? will I feel a difference in work and games?

This efficient system - i5 7300HQ and GTX1050 will work primarily in games, with the IPS panel for grph processing of photos and videos, in smooth playback of movies and music clips, in fast (without silting) surfing the Internet, at work, etc.

Dell Inspiron 7577 / price PLN 3699 / i5-7300HQ / 8G / 120 + 1000 / Win10 / GTX1050 / FHD - IPS

Omens are good only with the GTX 1060 MaxQ - these have a better IPS matrix and it's 120Hz.
Have you tried to get a voucher?

I have not tried, but still PLN 4500 is the absolute maximum - I would rather spend something around PLN 3800.
