Amazing laptop
Such an Amazing Laptop especially for gaming, only main issue I have is the screen freezing for a few seconds when starting up some games on certain platforms like epic games and such but overall everything else runs perfectly and great storage when downloading a ton of games

Good specs for the price
I bought this as a gift for myself to play DD2.. set it to performance as I hate laggy games. Picture is still pretty fantastic. Have recommended to others so they can get their own. (Ie stop asking to borrow it ð) Bought hard cover and a convertible backpack/laptop bag as well for ease of travel.

Misleading
Alienware marketed as a top tier product has definitely gone downhill. I’ve had this laptop since November of 2024. I have had repeated blue screen crashes, even while playing decade old games like skyrim. Dell customer service is respectful but not helpful at all. I reached out thinking I’d get some form of help through my warranty. I was told my “basic warranty” only covers troubleshooting. That in it of itself is a joke. The troubleshooting provided is information you can get free through Google. Anything beyond that you have to pay for.
Short story. Warranty doesn’t provide anything useful and quality if laptop is at best a 2/10

Finally have this thing rock n rollin!!!
I absolutely love this machine now…switched to 32gb of kingston fury impact ddr5 running at 6400 mt/s and it runs amazing. I have hyperthreading on. Everything is turned on and running stable. No more crashing on Diablo 4 fenris error…Even with DLSS and frame generation turned on. My first ever Intel machine and I love it despite the rocky start we got off to. Alienware has a great aesthetic and the build quality of their laptops are second to none. I just wish they could do better in the display department, 165hz is a bit slow for a system with a 4080, and the FHD 480hz resolution leaves a lot to be desired in the 18in model. I have the 360hz FHD display on my M15 R5 that has a 3070 gpu, and its great for the smaller screen, I would really like to have been able to get this one with a UHD 4k option, also sound card is lacking. Speakers are the exact same junk that they used on my smaller laptop, considering there are smaller form factor machines in this size that they have managed to stuff a subwoofer inside of, Alienware is still late to the party when it comes to gaming devices and I believe Dell being largely to blame as their niche has always been in the office segment. They really need to step it up in their display technology as well as audio delivery if they are ever going to be as nice as Razer and MSI laptops in my opinion. Granted, I would have had to spend another 1000 dollars to get a Razer Blade 18 with similar specs.

Best laptop ever? No. Is it big enough that i don’t need a monitor? yeah. Not enough storage though but if you can get for less than 2300, but it!

Highly Under Rated Laptop!
I’ve tried just about every name brand laptop in this category (gaming laptops) and this was the only one (Alienware) that I did not try. The reason I didn’t try was because of all the not-so-great reviews and how the cons were just simply not ‘acceptable’ for 2024. After much trial and tribulation, I figured I had nothing left to lose except to not try this brand. Well low and behold! This laptop was PERFECT for me! I wanted a portable AND capable Beast and this fit the bill PERFECTLY! It maybe a little chunky for people who don’t eat meat or work out, but for me it was a very acceptable compromise for what I was looking for in a laptop (a consistent gaming experience whether at home or abroad). It plays all my games at max settings without any problems at all. Others I’ve had always ended up throttling themselves (despite being ‘higher spec’d’ than this one) and either stuttered or over-heated to the point it would lock up or shut down. This laptop might get a little ‘loud’ but it never over heats, never shuts down, and to my surprise, never throttled, not even once. I bought a laptop backpack for this laptop here in Amazon (just look up backpacks for 18.4″ laptops). It works PERFECTLY for my needs. Tech Support is practically built right into this machine too. Most questions I had about anything was easily found with the included software packages. I have no regrets with this purchase and can easily recommend this to people who want a great laptop and a Beast without all the marketing and fluff (and failures) of the other ‘Top Tier’ or ‘Higher Spec’d’ laptops out there (looking at you ASUS and LENOVO). Oh wait, I do have one regret, and it’s that I didn’t get this sooner and let my own bias and the bias of other laptop ‘Professional Reviewers’ sway me away from this brand early on during my searches for the PERFECT laptop for ME.

Great Computer
I really wanted to step up in performance from my last “gaming laptop” and the 4080 was a perfect choice for me. I purchased this laptop on Black Friday sales in 2024 for 2199. I couldn’t find any other options I was interested in that really competed at that price point. So far I’m really happy with the performance, the screen looks vivid and clean. The keyboard has a nice feel, and I appreciate the 32gb of ram. I added a 4tb SSD that I also got on a black Friday deal. It is worth noting that while there are 4 M2 SSD slots, only 2 are the full size, while the other two are intended to hold the smaller form factor cards.

Not new
Iâm sure this is an amazing product I just donât appreciate buying, what I believed, to be a new item and being sent a refurbished option. If I wanted used I would have chosen that option

I bought this laptop for work and coding. It is fast and has a lot of memory enough to do multiple tasks at once. I also installed a couple of games and it had no problem running them.

Over the past two months, this is the third laptop Iâve purchased, and unfortunately, they either had hardware issues or didnât match the advertised specs.
My last two purchases were Asus ROG Strix Scar models, and I can confidently say that Alienware offers much better build quality, keyboard, and lighting. Additionally, the fan noise is noticeably smoother and quieter compared to the Asus ROG 18 and Asus ROG 17 X3D.
The only major issue with this laptop is the screen, which has a leak problem, and that was truly disappointing.
Aside from the screen issue and the heavy weight (which is understandable given the premium build quality), this is a well-built and high-quality laptop.
