Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the x17 R1's performance, especially at 1080p, its effective cooling system, and the impressive speed of its SSD. Many appreciate the laptop's design and the large, high refresh rate screen, although some find the battery life could be improved. The keyboard is also generally well-received.

    Lasted just 12-months before it died. Side venting of heat on front right burns hand, is like blast furnace. Screen was stuttering periodically even under low-load. Will never buy Alienware/Dell again.

    When I received the laptop, I immediately have flickering on the screen, called Dell service and they replaced the screen on site next following week. I’m a little concerned if this laptop will last a while or not. May have been damaged during shipment?
