Alienware - m15 R7 15.6" QHD 240Hz Gaming Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti - 512GB SSD - Dark Side of the Moon

The Alienware m15 R7 stands out as a robust gaming laptop, offering a premium experience and outstanding performance. It features a high refresh rate screen, robust gaming capabilities, and top-notch battery life, making it an appealing option for gaming enthusiasts. On the flip side, its somewhat heavier build and subpar storage performance might be considered negatives by certain users. Moreover, the Alienware m15 R7's user-friendly design allows for easy upgrades to RAM and storage. If snagged on sale or as an open-box deal, it becomes an even more enticing option, providing excellent value for those seeking a high-performance gaming laptop.

MY wife purchased me a gaming PC last Christmas which we set up in our home office. She likes to game as well but didn't want to take up much space and wanted something more portable as well. This machine doesn't disappoint. Runs all of the newest games very smooth. Screen is bright and crisp. Highly recommended!

Bought this open box and it came with some issues and apparently the wrong charger was supplied (per Dell). Dell has provided excellent support for the issues it has been having. Able to play a myriad of steam and Xbox games, but mostly I just use it for school. I wish it were capable of USB charging, the charger is massive. Backlit keys I can change colors on. Battery life not tested, it’s always plugged in.

Paid $1,156 for open box model. Device came in practically new sealed and everything. Only downside thus far is the speakers crackle a little (known Alienware issue) and the Alienware command center is a bit buggy. I play Fortnite and get 240fps easy.

Premium materials but with some software issues for ex: Dell Support app not opening

Its,really fast and well built laptop It might be kind of bulky for some people but its a gaming laptop. This things are not supposed to be light.

I have had few issues with the laptop thus far. I did have to use Dell Support Assist to get the Alienware Command software working properly and upon arrival the screen bezel was coming off (it did click back into place and hasn't come apart again) but otherwise it's worked great. The keyboard uses Cherry MX low profile switches and they feel great to use. The display is great. It does get a little loud when gaming / video editing, but that's to be expected with almost any laptop with a dedicated GPU. It is a little on the heavy side, but for my use, it's not been an issue.

Solid build quality, and performs decently even in "silent" mode. Battery Life: Can't expect too much out of this thing on battery seeing how it's meant to be a desktop replacement, but it was "okay" on AMD. Intel might be another story. Speed: Mine had a 3070 TI on it, was able to play Hogwarts Legacy at Ultra with Ray Tracing turned off without any issues. The GPU hits 140W without issue. Display: No complaints at all. One thing to note is that this thing has a high pitched fan noise when compared to another laptop I tested, a Asus ROG Zephyrus G15. Must have something to do with the blade design. Unfortunately taking a star off since I had to return mine due to a GPU issue (screen was ghosting badly and tearing). I got this as "Open Box Excellent" at a significantly discounted price. I'm assuming this unit got returned to begin with due to the random tearing / gpu issue. The only other time I've seen this happen is on an older MacBook Pro with a failing GPU due to a soldering issue I believe.
