4.0 out of 5 stars So far, so great!
By MissToya
The media could not be loaded. I am loving this laptop so far! Everything is working well at the moment, and I've had it for almost two weeks now. The only issues I've encountered are the Wi-Fi and battery life (which I already knew sucked, lol). The Wi-Fi occasionally disconnects for no clear reason—could be the laptop or my Spectrum connection. On the bright side, the Ethernet connection works!The battery life is about 3 hours (I've tested it) shorter while gaming, and the fan can get pretty loud when it's charging while running games like *Sims 4*, *Diablo 3/4*, or *Dead by Daylight*. However, when unplugged, it's surprisingly quiet—weird lol!That said, the specs are excellent, and the graphics are absolutely stunning. This is a massive upgrade from my 11-year-old ASUS Q550GFL series laptop (which is still hanging in there). I haven’t tested the Bluetooth yet, but I plan to and will update my review later.Overall, if you can live with the short battery life, I’d definitely recommend this laptop!

4.0 out of 5 stars Love it (although a bit disappointed with a few things)
By Rie
I bought this to play PCVR and it does it well. I'm quite happy with that. However, it does not have an HDMI port and Steam is constantly reminding me I'm not going to have as great of a connection without using HDMI.It also only has 2 USB-A ports and no USB-C ports so I have to choose between a controller/mouse, earphones, or a fan. Yes, I bought an adapter to extend the number of ports, but for this amount on a "gaming" computer, I expected enough ports to be able to properly game.I do love that it didn't have all this extra stuff loaded trying to get me to buy more stuff. It's my first PC that didn't spend the first few minutes shoving ads down my throat. I'm so grateful for that.Although, whenever I turn it on, I get a prompt that it didn't start properly and has to restart. It's annoying, but thankfully it happens fast.Overall, I'm happy with the purchase. I would have been ecstatic if it had proper ports and could start without having to restart. But I can play No Man's Sky and other games above the recommendation because it does handle it well...and that's the most important thing it can do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good So Far!

I heard mixed reviews on this. I took a chance and it's only been 2 weeks, but so far so good. The Alienware software takes about 10 to 20 seconds to load when first opening it. after that 5-10. The back end got flack for being too big. But Who is really carrying around a 16 inch gaming laptop. Keys feel great. RGB is good. Keys are clear and not blinding like most RGB backlits. Design is good imo. feels premium. Cam is decent. Touch pad is smooth. Display is nice, all text is clear and colors are good. I heard many people complaining about the brightness levels. But in a dark room I actually turn the brightness down. And in my home with normal outdoor light coming in, I have no issues with the brightness. 2 usb 2 usb c, this is the only downside. in my opinion. I wish there was one more. I do like there are no cables coming from the sides. All ports in back. Cleaner desk look. will update if I have any issues.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this laptop!!!

This laptop is a GIANT waste of money. It didn't last for 2 weeks before the system stopped charging itself and shut down. I had to return it without being able to remove my data. I am VERY disappointed with this product and purchase.
