Incredible build quality, had all updated hardware inside. Expand ability is easy and well thought out internally. If purchased under $1500 I would highly recommend.

The overall experience was great. The condition of both the box and the laptop were outstanding and setting up the laptop was pretty easy. I think the laptop is very cool and offers many technical advantages. Playing games I don’t run into too many problems(of course everyone’s wifi is different) but other than that sometimes the mousepad acts funny but everything else is perfectly fine!

I had an asus tuf and the screen stopped working. I had to have a computer asap for my finals at college and ran to bestbuy for it. I was looking for something much more simpler than this but i took advantage of the bestbuy card perks and got it with 24 monthly payments with no interest. I upgraded the ssd to 4tb and now its a real airplane! I love it!

So far a great laptop. Gets a little warm on my lap but I will use this in the winter instead of heating. Is this long enough?

I am currently writing this as I am packing up the "Gaming" Laptop to return it to best buy.
I have always been hesitant to buy a gaming laptop before due to companies like Nvidia adding a 40 series GPU that underperforms and underdelivers, 16GB of RAM is not enough to play any new title that requires the game to run at 1600 resolution, the laptop also likes to freeze and crash often due to the new Nvidia drivers that get worse as they just seem to not care about consumer anymore, I had to go through multiple different drivers to find the correct one as the new ones would simply cause the system to blue screen just by opening google chrome.
Now as for Alienware, the laptop feels nice and premium (for the price it is not surprising) but where it really lacks is using the system. Using the machine in a work environment and trying to do simple tasks seemed overwhelming, it would take seconds at a time to open files, apps etc.. The biggest gripe I have is trying to turn on the device, I would press the button and nothing would happen, I would have to leave it held down for a couple of seconds and the keyboard would light up and then shut back down, it would turn on randomly after multiple times which made me think I was pressing the button incorrectly while my hp laptop never gave me any of these issues above. The battery life is also horrible due to the nature of the refresh rate and "Gamer" specs.
