Runs all my games great with high FPS, really comfortable to play on considering the good size keyboard. Numberpad doesn't take up half the keyboard like some other laptops. Only minus is the fans are quite loud which gets annoying for other people who may be in the room due to how fast the GPU and CPU heat up with certain graphic heavy games. Other than the sound the fans work great and cool the laptop off really quickly. Would recommend on sale!

Amazing laptop. Runs all of my games, old and new, with no issues, on highest graphic settings. Added a second internal ssd that is larger, which was a simple install. Overall a little spendy, but well worth it. Would 100% recommend for a portable gaming experience.

Very happy with it! Playing games on max setting and finally seeing the games they were truly meant to be seen! Fan isn’t loud but it does it get hot like most gaming laptops. I recommend a cooling pad or table but worth every penny.

I’m very happy with this laptop. The performance is excellent for both everyday tasks and heavy workloads. Programs load quickly, multitasking is smooth, and the display quality is outstanding. The build feels sturdy and premium. Battery life is decent for a high-performance system, and the cooling works well even under load. Overall, it’s a great purchase and worth the investment.

I have never owned anything Alienware, but I have always wanted to. Everything runs as advertised, if not better. Copilot is helpful.
If I had to say anything critical, it would be that it heats up quickly when running video games, but pressing the key that turns on the performance mode for the fan system, no joke, it cools down within 10 seconds.

Overall, a good gaming laptop with excellent specs. I bought on sale so it was a good value compared to similar products. Fast and quiet. The screen is not as bright as I had hoped for, but still very good. I appreciate that even though the fan venting is on the bottom, it does not push straight down, but rather out to the sides.

I have wanted an Alienware box for years...the right combination of sale, need and ability to pay brought me to this machine. This is a premium computer by any measure. The key lighting, feel and action are great, the HUGE OLED screen is captivating, the sound is good and loud and this thing SCREAMS.

Good on Battery But Fans can be loud, for the price I got it for, it was better value than others. I would recommend upgrading to a higher wattage charger

Excellent laptop. It's been able to handle everything I throw at it including Fl Studio, Dj Serato, and Ai tools. The fans are a little loud but I'm sure that is necessary to avoid overheating.

Gaming power is amazing, fully equipped for gaming and school. Long lasting battery, no lag. The only negative thing is that it's not a touch screen.

Honest review. I bought this laptop and in a week it just flat out died. I took it to the store and the told me unfortunately this is just a bad one of the batch. The store said we will refund me and they did. I really did like this laptop to I asked if I could another l, so I did. Since then, this laptop has been great! Looks sometimes we just get a bad one of the batch. That doesn’t mean this whole line of laptops is bad. I really do enjoy my laptop and I’m glad I stuck with this. Highly recommend this laptop to any. Games do run very well and look really good.
