Customer Ratings & Reviews

Gets hot fast, dies fast. But better than all my friends actual gaming towers.needs a special backpack it’s so big.

I have had this laptop for about a week and I've enjoyed using it. It has very good graphics. When I've had time to play a game, it's been responsive with no delays. it is very smooth when multitasking. I enjoy adjusting the color of the keyboard and back lighting. The only downfall is the weight. It's bulky but it is worth it for me. It has a big price tag, in my case I didn't mind.

W specs. W thermals. Just a big dub overall. I played wow and ow all night and it didn’t over heat. This is a good gaming laptop if you travel a lot, and want pc feels.

Received the laptop quickly only to find out the power supply has a chinese plug, not a US plug. Was notified I am expeceted to purchase a new power supply or inverter.

Two strikes with back-to-back defective devices. First was a terrible bug with the touchpad, and the replacement has a serious issue with the wireless network card even after a reset. It is rare for me to say this, but avoid this one at all costs!

Awesome frames per second on a laptop. Nice weight and quality.

Unbelievable on the value here, great spec for my engineering cad software, works great and good and lightweight. Powerful to say the least.

Amazing device. Does everything I need it to and more! Would never buy another brand after owning this. definitely RECCOMEND! I was skeptical about buying an alienware because it just buying a brand but it is more worth it than I could ever imagine!

We just had to replace a Razer Stealth 15, and this Alienware fit the bill! With good RAM standard and the sturdiness of Alienware build quality, it seems to be holding up to lugging to school well. Bought an Alienware M16 for my other son and had to add more RAM to get it to run as smoothly as we’d like on larger games. But overall very satisfied!

the laptop is good but the trackpad is not illuminated, hoped that bestbuy had 4080 and 4090 version of this laptop

I’ve been using my Alienware laptop for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The build quality is premium, and the design feels both futuristic and durable.

I've used a lot of Alienware devices over the past decade and this is by far one of the best. This new design shares similarities with the XPS, which is also a solid platform. It's very much like the best of both platforms were merged into one. Performance, quality, and usability are great. Very happy with this.

Bought to replace my old laptop. A little wider than I would like making it hard to travel with but other than that it seems worth what I paid! Not a fan of all the ports being in the back but not a huge deal.

I love it. Easy to use and update. Handles the best pc games.

BEST laptop I've ever owned! Games run smoothly and the display is outstanding! Awesome machine!

Everything is good except display, it is still dark after max light setting.

Great laptop all around, i havent had any issues with it whatsoever.

great computer and i got it at a awesome price from best buy!

The touchpad doesn’t work on the one I purchased. Other than that love it
