Awesome computer, switched from older Asus ROG, and leaps above with the M.2 drive and the display is incredible.

Battery life is not good, heats up too much and too hot, it is a quality laptop but Asus is better for now, hope to see Alienware as the best gaming laptop producer again, but this model is not value for the money sorry

    • Great performance in a small package
Style: 16.0 QHD+
Really fantastic gaming laptop in a small chassis. It handles anything I throw at it with ease, and the thermals stay well under 85*. I purchased this “used-like new” and it has its fair share of scuffs and scrapes, but functionally it seems to be in order. There is a weird issue when I turn it on, it shuts off, but the 2nd power on it always boots up like normal. According to other users, this is a dell firmware update issue that should be addressed eventually. I plan on purchasing the extended warranty through dell if they’ll allow it. Overall it’s a great laptop with a premium touch. Battery life is quite good. The speakers and the build quality really blew me away in the x16. I’ve had some premium gaming laptops in the past (razer, legion 7, zephyrus g16) but there’s honestly something special about the x16 ... show more

    • Got this on sale and love it.
Style: 17.3" FHD
After injuring my shoulder it was starting to be a bit much when I had to move my desktop around. So I replaced it with this laptop. I use an external monitor, mouse and keyboard. I keep the laptop closed and on a vertical stand to keep my desk space clear. It's a really nice setup and I'm really happy with this laptop in my use case scenario. ... show more

    • not the same quality like my previous one
Style: 17.3" FHD
Having been fully satisfied for 6 years with my Alienware I got a new one before the old one would eventually collapse. Almost same configuration, except the new model has more memory. It's much lighter and half thicker and that is great. Unfortunately there is no comparison with the previous sound card, keybord and touchpad response. I'm still using the old one. Will keep the new as a spare... ... show more

Everything about this product is great. It does seem to get a little warm but I bought an additional cooling fan just to be safe so it's fine. Best deal ever.
