There are gaming laptop deals for top-of-the-line machines, but there are also offers that make budget-friendly models even more affordable. Here’s one from Dell — a $300 discount on the Dell G15 with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card, which brings its price down from $900 to just $600. The savings won’t be around forever though, so if you’re interested in this device, you should go ahead and complete your purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the Dell G15 gaming laptop

The Dell G15 is showcased in our roundup of the best gaming laptops as the best budget gaming laptop under $1,000. It provides decent performance, with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card pairing with the 13th-generation Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM. You won’t be able to play the best PC games at their highest settings — in fact, you may have to choose the lowest settings for the more demanding titles — but for such an affordable device, that’s an acceptable trade-off.

The 15.6-inch screen of the Dell G15 provides Full HD resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, which are solid specifications for gaming, and the device also comes with a 512GB SSD for ample storage space for multiple titles and all of their optional DLCs. The gaming laptop also ships with Windows 11 Home out of the box, which means you can start installing video games right after powering it on for the first time. For your accessories, the Dell G15 features a mixture of USB-A and USB-C ports, a headset port, and an HDMI port.

The Dell G15 gaming laptop is an excellent choice for gamers on a tight budget, and it’s an even more tempting purchase right now because of Dell’s discount. Its configuration with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card is on sale at $300 off, which further lowers its price to only $600 from $900 originally. The offer may disappear at any moment though, so if you want to buy the Dell G15 gaming laptop for this special price, you need to finish your transaction immediately.

Imagine walking into your local supermarket and finding the freezer aisle blowing hot air. That’s what happened at dozens of grocery stores across Europe last night, after hackers remotely cranked up the temperature of their fridges and freezers to a scorching 50°C (122°F).

Google’s next Googlebook could make your Android tablets feel outdated

Googlebooks are moving beyond traditional laptops, and the next one might look more like a tablet.

Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Googlebooks have only been around for a little over a month, but Google is already looking beyond traditional laptops. The company has confirmed that detachable Googlebooks are on the way, meaning we could soon see devices that work as both a tablet and a laptop without carrying two separate gadgets.

The announcement came during the Android Dev Summit 2026, where Google outlined its plans to expand the Googlebook lineup beyond the clamshell and convertible designs currently available. While the company hasn't revealed an official launch date or shown any hardware, an earlier leak suggests Lenovo could be the first manufacturer to bring one to market.

Meta is already working on its second-gen humanoid robot, but don’t expect it to land in homes anytime soon

Meta wants a robot to do your chores, but it still has to learn how to climb stairs

Meta appears to be getting serious about bringing artificial intelligence out of the screen and into the physical world. The company has built a humanoid robot prototype with Chinese robotics firm Fourier, and it is already developing a second-generation version. However, before anyone starts imagining a robot folding laundry or handling household chores, there is a fairly important caveat: this is still research and development, with no launch date in sight.

According to The Information, which cited people familiar with the project, Meta and Fourier built the prototype, internally called Max, in around three months. The roughly 48kg robot is part of Meta's broader ambition to develop humanoids that could eventually carry out everyday tasks in people's homes.
