For the laptop. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Mini LED display
  • RTX 5090 performance
  • Improved cooling and display
  • Mini LED upgrade
  • Top-tier gaming
  • Excellent 4K Mini LED
  • Easy to service

Cons

  • Small generational gains
  • Gaming no faster than 2025
  • Very expensive
  • Very heavy
  • Large power supply
  • Tested the 2025 G835LX (RTX 5090): headline praises the Mini LED screen and RTX 5090 performance; full text not readable.

  • Tested the 2026 G835LXG refresh: a solid update with small gains, mostly from the CPU, plus better cooling and screen; useful context on how close the 2025 model is.

  • On the 2026 G835LXG: the 4K Mini LED is the real upgrade, while gaming speed is about the same as the 2025 model.

  • CG MagazineSep 2026

    On the 2026 G835LXG: a top-tier gaming machine whose price puts it out of reach for many.

  • Tested the 2026 G835LXG (290HX Plus, RTX 5090, 4K Mini LED, 128 GB): a gaming monster with an excellent screen and easy upgrades, but huge, heavy and with a big power brick.
