Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the impressive performance and graphics capabilities of the m18 R2 18" 165Hz Gaming Laptop, frequently praising its large screen size ideal for gaming and work. However, some users noted the laptop's considerable weight and relatively short battery life as drawbacks. The large screen, while appreciated by many, also necessitates a larger carrying case.

    I bought this laptop for school and gaming. While doing schoolwork and just browsing the internet the fans make barely any noise. Screen is really nice. The laptop itself doesnt weigh much so its definitely portable unlike some reviews saying its "heavy". Unless you have little chicken arms you should be ok. Dell sells a 18" backpack on their site thats awesome for this. Overall very happy with my purchase would recommend

    Everything i was looking for. My last 2 laptops where MSI and still worked great, but i wanted an upgrade on graphics and CPU to run new titles on ultra settings and this delivered. Very satisfied with this purchase. I can easily run Baldurs Gate 3 and TW Warhammer 3 on top settings with no lag or stuttering

    I’m a casual gamer and this laptop delivers. Its massive screen, beautiful design and functionality provide for an enjoyable experience. If physical space is an issue, this is a good alternative to a desktop at its current sale price.

    The 32 GB / 18" screen is beyond compare. For my personal business and entertainment, I highly recommend the Alienware PC. The Best Buy sales staff and support team made this an easy transition to my new set-up. What are you waiting for?!!!

    This has met my expectation as well as the requirements! Great machine for Gaming and a lovely 18" screen. I also got a large lap desk to go with it as the machine does get hot when running for extended times. My cats love to sit next to it so the warm air blows on them. :-)
