    Laptop started to have a lot of issues and problems, for having for a year, went I first got it, there were no issues but after a year of using, the problems start to occasionally occur more often, blue screen of death a few times, got to restart the laptop, laptop started to froze after couple hours playing light gaming, I don’t know how it happened, and sometimes it kicks me out of Microsoft edge to the windows Home Screen if I play for few hours, too bad I can’t upgrade my ram to 64gb, because the 32gb is soldered on it, the ssd I can but it’s still worthless, I wasted $2000 for a quality, I expected to be very great and running smooth for a whole 5 years, eh, I was totally wrong, I’m never buying a laptop again, I’m going for a gaming pc instead this time to make upgrading a lot easier.

    I recently returned this laptop and wanted to just give a short and sweet reason to why if anyones looking at getting this laptop DONT!!!!! 1. The laptop gets insanely hot to the point where it will not only burn you but turn whatever room your in into a sauna 2. The laptop sounds like a F 22 fighter jet when playing any games even less demanding ones youd think thats cool but it is in fact beyond annoying 3. Due to its overheating i had games crash countless times and tried everything i could to keep it cool with no luck 4. You would think after paying 3k for a premium laptop it would feel expensive and well made no this laptop is flimzy the logo on the back was loose and the speakers looked and felt cheap all around not worth its price i strongly encourage anyone considering this laptop to look elsewhere and avoid the hassle it gave me!

    Worst purchase ever!

    Posted .

    This Dell Alienware 16 desktop was my worst electronic purchase ever! After 3 months of the purchase, it showed a blue screen. We tried a remote assistance with the technical support and finally after some hours, we were told to send it to Dell to be repaired. After a few weeks blue screen again. Same procedures, remote assistance and finally we have to send it again to Dell for repair. The worst $3300 ever spent! You are out of the 30 days window to return it? you are screwed!
