||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never owned a gaming laptop until now and I wanted to go big so I went with Alienware. Been playing COD with no lag so makes traveling easy when I wanna hook up to WiFi.
I would recommend this to a friendKeyboard driver not available
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the product. The only issue I had was the keyboard is not the standard QWERTY keyboard. At the beginning the keyboard and key presses were the same. The keyboard changed to QWERTY and there wasnt an available driver to update.
I would recommend this to a friendAvoid if you play games... Too HOT!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this for light gaming on the go. I used it for about a week and tried everything without opening it to try and keep this thing cool. sitting on the desktop nothing open it would have high cpu usage attributed to low ram. out of box it would used 11 out of 16gb on the desktop. it would lag on YouTube videos, gaming was almost impossible to enjoy as it would lag and stutter on games like the sims 4, cities skylines 1 and 2. Wow played ok. Anything else was too intensive and took too long to play as the ram would cap out. The screen was very good and the size of the machine was impressive. Windows Hello was nice but having a overheating terrible battery life doesn't make up for its design. Ended up trading it in for an ASUS with more specs for $100 more than this machine.

Between the stealth and performance mode, there is plenty of opportunity to use this for both work and gaming. The screen is simply amazing with the refresh rate.
I would recommend this to a friendIt’s not bad but not great

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine for running my RC simulator. Even better when I connect it to my TV for the larger screen.
I would recommend this to a friendDecent Laptop,great for open box value
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Laptop was good for the value of the open boxed version, but the ram is underpowered and the build quality could be better, overall I would reccomend this if you are not buying new.
I would recommend this to a friendFreeze frame
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really thought I was getting a great laptop. Only to find out it won’t work unless it’s plugged in. Unplugged using just battery will result in the computer to freeze up to the point you have to restart it. I need to be able to use a computer without having to be plugged in. Unfortunately this computer did not work out.
