Apple basically already created this issue when they switched to those butterfly switches. Really pissed everyone off because they got so loud.

That they had a predator sitting in a corner somewhere for literal years until it became necessary for this vid, only to return it to that corner when they were done is amazing.

There was also my keyboard, my old laptop has a few keys that arent working so I fooled my mom to buying a mechanical keyboard, I customized it myself so it's cheaper, I just went to get water and when I came back somebody bumped into my seat and dropped the keyboard causing some keys to spill, now that's fine but they also stepped on the keys and broke some.
Been there. 😅 We were doing presentations in class and this one dude pulls out his big ass gaming laptop when it was his groups turn. 🤦 I’m pretty sure he wanted to show off but harriously enough it didn’t want to connect to the projector, he ended up waisting the rest of the class period trying to get it to work. 😂

@james howlett This 'some random youtube channel' has 13.4 milliong subs.
@james howlett shoulda added a /s
@james howlett indicate it is sarcastic
@@ferretforrent1144 And that is still a size so insignificant to a corporation the size of Dell that they won't even think twice. And, in reality, of that 13.4 million, only about 1/10th to 1/15 watch the videos on average. Which is already a number so small to a corporation the size of Dell that any negative effect it's likely to have is within a rounding error. And, let's face it. Of that...say, 0.9-1.8 million viewers, only a small percentage of them are in the market for a computer or laptop during any one particular year. And, between that time frame and the sheer number of videos, the majority of those people will pretty much just remember, "Huh, LTT does a lot of videos about Dell" rather than any particular detail.
Pretty much the worst consequence that will happen out of this is that the PR rep that sampled the device to LTT might get reprimanded or fired. Otherwise, Dell really just doesn't care. For every 1 person that learns anything of value from this video, there's thousands that will just go to Dell to buy a laptop because there was one that was cheap and because Dell is a huge manufacturer, so "they have to be good, right?".
@@ShroudedWolf51 Then you have the corporate IT guys like me that can influence a 20k laptop purchase any given year.

This thing chomps down on anything at maximum settings, and on my 4k tv it runs 60fps easily. Plus the 360hz on this thing is crazy.
Did you buy with normal stock keyboard or did you upgrade to the cherry mx ultra low profile keyboard? Looking at getting the M17 but can’t decide between both.
@@Twahboxx808 I just got the basic keyboard and it's nice. I'm sure the cherry one is good but it's really just preference. Some people actually end up disliking the cherry keyboard tbh.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
Now that is a sentence.
I always wondered, did Dickens choose to not say "Hell" 'cause that was considered a very bad swearword?
That's not a sentence.
That's a paragraph with commas instead of periods.
And I mean that in the literal grammatical sense (linguistics).

@@MrNicoJacAh, but a paragraph can be made up of one sentence, am I correct?
@@gamerleal9265
Technically, no it cannot.
A sentence should cover one idea/thing/part. By contrast, a paragraph should contain how the idea/thing relates to the wider context. (speaking in the broadest sense of what those words can mean)
Therefore, whenever a paragraph is one sentence, it's actually a badly-written and underdeveloped paragraph. It's incomplete.
But people are imperfect creatures, so you'll be able to find plenty of examples 😆

Thing is, I've always enjoyed thinkpad laptop keyboards even after trying out mechanical ones. Sure, they are not as good, but they are a close second for some reason. I really do not see a reason for mechanical switches to be used on laptops. Having said that, I would love to one day be able to feel no difference when using a full size standalone mechanical keyboard and a laptop keyboard.
The only way I can explain what you described is "the keys feel like pressing a stapler"
Not gonna lie, the best segue to the sponsor I've seen in years. There's something so relatable about "something, something... sponsor(?)" It just makes you say "I feel you bro... I'm gonna check what you're selling"
It's spelled segue

I was ready to call you out because I absolutely didn't agree at all when I heard the first segue and I thought you referred to that. But the second one? Oh, *chefs kiss*. Absolutely agree.

That high initial actuation force you mentioned reminds me of the generic chiclet keyboards from the likes of HP that they supply with office PCs. I always find myself missing keys that I hit with my pinky as the force to get some initial movement makes it feel sticky.
Linus' rating of the M15 R2's keyboard was why I went ahead and made it my 4th Alienware laptop. It's been a crazy good laptop keyboard. I was interested in seeing if the MX switches were any better.

"It's really better than any other keyboard on a laptop... because... it's cherry mx browns." *Glarses has entered the chat*
exactly my thinking
stole my words
My first laptop was a Sony VAIO PCG-GRT715M, IIRC it had a desktop CPU and a non-Mobile GPU. Battery life was 20-30min.
I didn't mind though, it was bought as a LAN PC.
Its amazing how smooth the sponsor ads are in their videos
I like how the humongoid Acer laptop is so huge and heavy that the turntable they photographed it on clearly unbalances itself and wobbles XD
"Something something... Sponsor"
Hands down your best line ever 🤣👍
Maybe it's just me but I love the keyboard on my Lenovo Y545 (front-load like the Alienware) You don't have to press the key down a bit before it has any effect, the instant it moves, the action happens (moving, jumping, etc.). I like the certainty of knowing at the exact instant that it will actuate instead of pressing down a bit before it goes
@Linus: Did you try out key combinations like WASD + arrow keys? Some 3 key combinations don't work - there is a ghosting problem. It only detects 2 keys pressed at the same time for W + D + right arrow, for example. Dell Alienware support isn't being super helpful in this regard. Not sure if I received a defective piece or if it is a design flaw with all laptops.

And they are even so good that they make the protective film on the Alienware logo disappear ^^

I’ve got this exact setup with the 150hz screen and normal keyboard. It’s a portable desktop replacement that does gaming duty since I travel for work constantly. When at home it’s hooked up to a 34” Alienware ultra wide and Corsair mech keyboard, so no need for the better screen and keyboard. Paid about $2500 for it with some recent sales and it’s one of the few things I’ve purchased in the last decade that I don’t have any regrets about.

I got a mechanical keyboard, hoping that it responds more reliable.
The cherry MX brown are reacting to each keypress, no failure, so that aspect works excellent.
And I learned to appreciate the tactile feedback, which eliminates the need to hammer the key down to the bottom.

I have the previous i9 M17, they should have made it less thin and allowed it to actually get airflow. For normal use you have to raise it up with a stand, underclock the CPU or both. Leaving it flat though it sometimes overheats and shuts down.

One type of gamer that isn't very common but does exist - uses the laptop as a CPU and uses all the peripherals of a desktop - monitor, keyboard/mouse, speakers, etc.
They need this as they require the additional mobility that a laptop offers - for work, game nights etc.

I bought it and as someone who was usually on console before, I love pc gaming...

@@monkeywithocd I bought one of those thinking it was a cheap mechanical keyboard. I hated it so much I ended up giving it to a friend
@@marcusmeyer3266 Unfortunately since I use one of those gaming keypad things (currently using the Tartarus V2) I don't have any other options unless I went with a second-hand product. The only other option from Razer is one with analog keys which would mean no tactile actuation point which, having used things like the c64 keyboard, is not something I'm going to put up with since I know I'd get absolutely no use out of the analog capability.
@@monkeywithocd Razers mecha membrane are very tactile rubberdomes with a leafspring to make the sound.
"I appreciate the little extra bit of effort"
I appreciate your application of ISO 9000 management standards. It's frustrating to have an employer who smacks you down (or just fires you outright, in my case) for showing a gram of initiative.
2:20 I lost it! Totally nailed it!
16:30 Probably the best feature of this thing. Who needs a friggen trackpad?
I'll be sad for the day my MSI GT83-VR is outdated. It also has a full Cherry MX Brown keyboard.
