Emulation review also by ETA Prime:
https://youtu.be/xbKGl1EqgLg
- The type of ports available on this is just like that of the older 15-cx from 2018, namely three usb-a 3.1, one usb-c with DP, one HDMI 2.0.
- i5-9300H is nearly the same in single and multicore as i5-8300H from the older 2018 model.
- GTX 1650 is an incremental upgrade over the old 1050ti. It's about 20+% faster.
Alternative deal with AMD Ryzen 5 4600H CPU for the same price:

Review of identical hardware (except for display) laptop with DELL branding:

Best Buy (BB) vs Walmart (WM) version comparizon:
- The Walmart version has an IPS screen (TN on BB version) with better viewing angles, and higher 250 nit brightness (220 nit on BB version).
- The Walmart version has a USB 3.1 Gen 2 with Power Delivery (PD) and Display Port (DP) support, which means you can have up to 3 displays (laptop screen + 1 via HDMI +1 via USB-C to HDMI). (BB version can only support 2 displays: laptop screen + 1 via HDMI).
- The Walmart version has a newer housing/exhaust/hinge design, with improved cooling to accommodate the.power consumption of the Intel i5 9300H CPU (2 large exhaust ports on either side of the hinge).
- The Best Buy version has a newer, faster and more power efficient AMD Ryzen 5 4600H CPU, which means longer battery life when unplugged.
- The Best Buy version comes with faster 3200Mhz RAM (WM version has 2666Mhz RAM).
- The Best Buy version has a previous housing/exhaust/hinge design, since the AMD does not require the improved cooling of the newer design (one narrow exhaust port right on the hinge).

HDMI on both are 2.0. only walmart has the Displayport function for usb-c

The 9300 actually performs better than the 10th gen 1005.

There is only 1 M2 slot so you won't be able to just simply plug in your old ssd and go. you could try to uninstall all the drivers and then just plug the old ssd into the new laptop and let it try to detect all the hardware and do auto driver install thr windows update and manually install any left over drivers. Windows and office might unlicense itself when you directly transfer the old ssd into a new laptop so might have to register them.

Often these descriptions stated on sites aren't accurate
- Is this or the Best Buy one better for gaming in the long run?
- Are the fans/heating the same? RAM is both 8gb max?
- Are there any other lower price gaming laptops better than this?

There is also a 2.5 inch bay. I haven't open it yet to see if they include the mounting cage and the ribbon cable for it

Thank you.This is about the lowest price you will get for a discrete graphic laptop.. 1650 is the lowest nvidia graphic but it's not that bad. slightly below the old 1060 so....
