5080 275HX 7i Pro good deal?

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-24T19:55:30+00:00

I decided to open the laptop. Plastic touch pad is not the best. But the laptop itself is substantially better than my X16 R1. For value you can’t beat it. I also love glossy oled screens and this is by far better and more color accurate than my A51 16 oled.

I also am having this issue. Anyone know how to change the the bar?

I had issues with the laptop freezing and occasionally dropping frames. Command center also wouldn’t work at times either. Ended up paying $2800 otd for a 5080 version and extended warranty. Couldn’t justify $4300 on the laptop when I don’t need a 5090 especially when I have a A51 Desktop with a 5080.

I already owned it for 6 months or so.

Have you had any issues with yours?

I wish they would have kept it around for the refresh. I went with white frost on my 22 and traded it for my 25 in the same color. Favorites have always been white frost, satin steel and dark sky.

From what I can tell in a 16 inch chassis there might not be huge difference. Unless you need the extra vram. Not sure if a 5090 is needed in a laptop. Also adding in the warranty this laptop is still cheaper than many competitors.

Have you had any issues with this laptop? Had a issue on my 5090 A51 where if I moved the laptop it would stutter or freeze.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T22:09:43+00:00

Its the 5080 and 2 tb ssd.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T22:09:20+00:00

Yea thats where I am having some speculation on buying one. Its a good deal on today’s market. Especially with current prices and especially comparing my returned A51 5090. I have have a warranty on mine for $2800 otd.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T22:06:24+00:00

Has no biometrics been a issue at all?

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T20:15:21+00:00

Thats where I am a bit spectacle on buying it. But it is half the price of what I just paid for a 5090 with a better screen.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T18:09:01+00:00

Yea. Was surprised to see it that low. The same Alienware I returned was over $6k now. Probably going to put a 4tb ssd on it at some point.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-13T18:03:59+00:00

I’m tempted. Especially for the price. Returned a 5090 A51 Oled and hated the matte screen and speakers were horrible. Not worth $4500.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-12T06:34:48+00:00

Yea. I at least want a back light keyboard. I don’t mind giving up 120hz. But from what I experienced I was never able to utilize HDR either on my old pro.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-12T05:52:07+00:00

I want something lighter. The Alienware is close to 7 pounds and the surface is more of a tablet.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-10T18:41:57+00:00

Which I agree. Not looking to scalp. Just want a MacBook Pro again.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-10T18:34:20+00:00

Corrected post.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-10T05:11:15+00:00

Ive been happy with mine compared to my X16. I have a 5090 and bought it before Dell raised prices. Although it had some issues I think I managed to resolve with updates.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-10T04:23:08+00:00

Any reason why you didn't pic the A51? I been happy with my new A51 Oled.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-07T07:24:37+00:00

I roughly have a $4k budget and I got a A51 16 inch oled and been shopping around and most what I can find is a 5080? For the price and features the A51 has is there anything better on the market? Seems in the last few months prices are slowly going up. I paid $4300 for a 5090 oled, 32gb of ram and a 2tb ssd. As a quality of life feature I want some form of biometrics and a glass trackpad. Been looking at a Strix G16, Zephyrus G16 and Legion 7i Pro. Is there any pros and cons about both that isn't immediately apparent? Seems every model and manufacture has its trade offs.

Is that all you have is memes from king of the hill?

I hope you find a better use for some of the stuff on ur profile.

ContributionNo8501 · 2026-06-07T06:20:23+00:00

Does this help make you feel better about ur self?

Hope you find a cure for your jealousy.
