Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've owned gaming laptops from HP and Asus and one thing you can't deny is: Alienware's build quality and finish is probably top notch compared to everyone else. With that being said, I was about to get a pretty sweet deal on the 4070 M16 (got it for about $1230) and I gotta say I've been running Black Myth Wukong at a STABLE 85-105 in game FPS so I'm happy about that.. But you know what they say.. once you get a taste of power you seem to always want MORE lol

It runs smooth and does not over heat. Loud fan noise though. The RGB lights are fun and nice to have. Get it if you can get a good deal. As with all Alienware laptops you can probably get another laptop for a better price but I got a pretty good deal on black friday so I'm happy with it.

I got this laptop for my son with autism and he figured out how to use it very quickly. He loves being able to use steam and it’s very fast i had to upgrade the ram and it’s very fast now.

Powerful laptop. Zero Issues. If you are looking for a laptop that will easily play games in medium settings and do all of your other work that you need a computer for and want a light small package this is a good one.

I found a great desktop replacement. Fast processor and powerful video with all the necessary peripherals. Large vivid screen with responsive refresh rate. This laptop is capable of overclocking with manufacturer supported software. A superbly built machine from Dell’s gaming line Alienware. I personally boosted the ram from 16 gb to 64 gb and then benchmarked the laptop. It reached to the 94th percentile for speed in comparison to all the computers in the database. Very impressive and well worth the cost.

[Employee of bestbuy] I recently picked up a gaming laptop during a sale and have been pleasantly surprised by its performance. It offers a good combination of power and speed, but the only downside is that it lacks memory. I believe it would greatly benefit from an upgrade to 32GB of RAM, but it's important to ensure that the new RAM is compatible with the system. One thing to keep in mind is that Alienware laptops can be quite finicky.

Ive had this laptop for about a month and Ive enjoyed it a ton. Its super customizable, especially with lighting and fan settings. It also runs games very well, handling games like Spider-Man 2 very well. Great laptop for portable gaming.

Love this computer, as soon as I got it i upgraded to 64 gigs of ram. It's fast, runs through any processing on the adobe suite or simple queries as needed. The only thing that's a little annoying, when running VBA macro's it tens to freeze up a little. I don't think that would be an issue for most users, but it was rather surprising with the processing power and ram.

Excellent laptop! It perfectly meets my expectations: fast, lightweight, and with long battery life. The design is modern, and the materials feel premium. Ideal for work and study without performance issues. Additionally, the screen has vibrant colors, perfect for creative tasks. Great value for the price. Definitely a fantastic purchase!

Needed to upgrade from an ASUS gaming laptop which I had for about 10 years or so, and so far this PC has yet to disappoint. I use it for the occasional gaming and for work. One thing that kinda triggers me is when it goes into performance mode, everything gets loud and if you are somewhere where it's completely silence you will get looked at, not a fan of that but you get used to it. Hopefully it'll last as long as the ASUS that got pushed into retirement lol.

Get the Asus G16 Instead Specs are good, upgradable ram is nice... but the screen is a dealbreaker along with fan noise and weight. And build quality leaves alot to be desired.

I saw a lot of recommendations for other brands but i have always been a fan of Alienware build qualities. I had some minor software issues with the Killer wifi but no other issues. I upgraded the ssd and ram and it runs exceptionally well for a midrange gpu and cpu.

excellent performance, sper fast, good picture quality

Well, Alienware wasn’t my first choice. I originally bought an Asus OLED 16” gaming laptop & it had little to no upgrade ability. The ram was 16gb & soldered to the motherboard.. So, I returned it & decided to go down the Alienware route. Sure, it doesn’t have an OLED display BUT! I got a lot more in return. I added a 2 TB SSD and upgraded the dual channel DDR5 ram to 32 GB! WORTH IT. laptop runs cool, it’s comfortable & has ran everything I’ve thrown at it. If I was to complain, for the price, it should have an OLED display or, a brighter and more colorful display.. Laptops are a constant trade off though. I rather have something more powerful than flashy.

If you want a “do it all” computer: school, work, light creative tasks, media consumption, and occasional gaming, this machine is more than capable. Good for hobbyists or those doing occasional creative work (like editing home videos, YouTube content, school projects), this PC offers a balance between rendering capability and affordability.

Good laptop but dim screen.. for $1,350 it was a ok buy… I probably should have spent the extra money and bought the legion… I added 32GB ram and put a 4tb ssd in the extra slot and now I have 5TB laptop.. I can’t complain…

I use this laptop for both work and play. It’s a powerhouse for a mid tier laptop. Memory will need to be upgraded, 16 is not enough. But you can find a reliable set for $100 on Amazon. My only complaints on this laptop is the screen brightness and the thermals. Yes it’s a core ultra and yes it runs very hot, but I feel like the cooling is not sufficient. It runs around 105C under heavy load which I find worrisome (even though it’s rated for up to 110C. A good caveat about this laptop is it has WiFi 7 which in turn if you have a WiFi 7 router runs at speeds up to 1300mbs per second which is pretty quick. Lastly it has potential for storage upgradability which I admire from Alienware.

I'm really enjoying this laptop. The gaming performance is outstanding. I can run most newer games at 1440p medium/high settings 60-80 fps. You can upgrade the ram and there's two SSD slots. The fit and finish is excellent. I have no overheating issues but I do run my fans at 100 percent. Purchased it on sale for 1,299.99

Perfect device for what I wanted and honestly I'd say this is about the best option given the market (and the kind of useless 5000 RTX series), get this and you're SET. Worst part is a consistent echoing from everyone else that the display for a 2024 device is so disappointing, you're not going to be fussed if you've never had an OLED or something fancy like that, we all live with LED screens everywhere 24/7, but man the competition for displays is ages ahead of Dell. P.S. Make sure to register it on the site for the warranty!

Laptop is solid, the fans can be loud but there are settings you can adjust to make them quiet and still have a good cpu and gpu temp
