There is so much power in this laptop. Got this for our son and he now uses it in place of his desktop computer. We set it up with an Alienware curved monitor and it runs beautifully! Definitely worth the money!

only had it a few days but so far so good. Graphics are great. Alittle loud when gaming as fan kicks high. Seems to get hot but guess thats normal for a laptop. like it so far.

use it for school and some mild astrophotography. No complaints so far. saw some negative reviews on other channels but this is a great hybrid laptop for work and gaming. I play war of rights, kerbals and some other military sims. No issues so far.

I recently upgraded to this laptop and let’s just say I’m super impressed. The Aurora 16 runs smooth, is pretty easy to use and plays games wonderfully. My previous laptop I could hardly play games like EFT on it. The Aurora runs it beautifully. The only thing I’ve really had issues with is the Alienware command center with the performance bar. Sometimes in the middle of a game it will open and turn the screen black and then minimize the game.
I also have not been able to figure out what the “stealth” button is used for on specific laptop.

Very nice laptop! You never see these kind of specs at this price point! Its pretty, very fast, also very quiet even with the fans on. I was quite impressed with how quit the fans are and they work great!

The Alienware is a very productive, duarable device. This is my second purchase of this name. I am very satisfied with product and will tell others about the features. I am still learning some of them myself (lol). Great product

Saw this on sale for circa 1000. I planned to use it as a secondary work laptop and medium load gaming system. Despite having the "power" it does, it often under perfomed when handling more demanding systems or running newer (2025) games on medium settings. However, many older games run great on the system and standard surfing, media consumption is fine.
Pro: sleek design allows for it to be taken into meetings or on the go without bulk or most people noticing it is an Alienware. The laptop itself doesnt heat up as bad as some reviewers have said when in performance and balanced modes.
Cons: Like any gaming laptop the battery is not a strong suit lasting under 2 hours when doing a medium load of mixed tasks. Although this is a budget offering the things that make an Alienware and Alienware just arent there. No glowing outer emblem, no keyboard light customization, etc. Even the gaming experience is lackluster and with the current specs, this is not a future proofed offering.
Even though the price was great and the smaller tasks done on independently are done well, other laptops do it better without studder or noisy fans. Yes there is a silent mode but even that can be vexing as it allows temperature issues. Pay a few extra hundred to get something with a little extra power and that has better specs future proofing it for those of you who wanted thia as a gaming system. I cannot recommend the product unless its on a deep discount, or you dont need your laptop to do much and you want to say you have a 5000 series card in your Alienware.
