Availability:
In Germany, the G16 is still unavailable and keyboard layout is unknown. In the USA, it took a long time until some 3070TI model has become available. However, at least thus far, 3070TI can only be combined with the too hot, too expensive, insufficiently cooled 12900H instead of 12700H. 3060 cannot be combined with 32GB but the user can upgrade to 32GB on his own.
Overall product concept:
16:10 display ratio, no PWM, matte IPS, ordinarily sized arrow keys and not exaggerated thinness allowing at least some cooling are, or promise to be, all good and let me consider the product at all.
Keyboard:
Judging from the US keyboard and hoping something similar for a German keyboard, I like the good accessibility of the keys (unlike Lenovo Legion's shape edges around keys), dust protection, pleasant key shape, ordinarily sized and very well accessible arrow keys, dedicated Home / End keys and large left Shift key. I do not need the media keys; instead dedicated Page Up / Page Down keys would have been better and Home / End could have been ordinarily sized. At least, dedicated Home / End instead of dedicated Page Up / Page Down is better than vice versa according to frequency of my use. In summary, the keyboard is acceptable but could have been better. Num block keys in ordinary size would have required a significantly larger chassis, which I would prefer; however, given the current chassis, omitting the num block is reasonable to allow for the mostly reasonable keyboard layout. Marked WASD keys are for 3D gamers - not for me; at least the marking is decent so that it can be tolerated. All in all, the keyboard layout is a compomise between gaming, media and creativity and as such as good as possible for the chassis dimensions.
Display:
Not bright enough for pleasant outdoor use in indirect sunlight but considering the low battery life under load outdoor use without power cable is unrealistic anyway. The other key display parameters are reasonable: matte, no PWM and reasonable response times.
Speed:
The 100.6 ns RAM latency is improper. The CPU is fast enough and the SSD 4K times are good. The GPU speed is good enough for what it is - a 3060. I would prefer a 3070TI though.
Maintenance:
I cannot see or clearly identify screws that would enable fan maintenance. Either it is impossible or it is not obvious which they are.
TDP and Noise:
The CPU is 12700H with 87W PL1 and 124W PL2, the GPU is 3060 speficied with up to 130W. The resulting noise is 45.7 dB or 48.3 dB for Witcher 3 and apparently similar for stress test on Balanced or Performance modes. While not too bad compared to many other "gaming" notebooks, this is too loud for me. I want at most 43 dB or better less at least in Balanced mode under maximum load. An important cause must be the Intel CPU with its too high TDPs. Instead or alternatively, the G16 ought to use an AMD CPU, such as 6800U (8 cores!), with at most 45W. A larger and somewhat thicker chassis would enable better cooling. The notebook is too much of a compromise. Dell missed a chance to make this a "silent" notebook under maximum load.
@PHVM_BR:
NBC should test noise and GPU speed under every relevant fan mode!
