I bought this laptop earlier this year in January or December was so excited about this machine because of my online research and after watching tons of review videos on different platforms. After buying this machine I started working basically 3d rendering and stuff related to this field. After using this laptop for a week windows updates automatically which is a normal thing with laptops but after update Alienware command center stopped working. I tried all methods available on internet to resolve this issue but non of them worked. Asked Alienware team for help but their response was same as I used the methods of make it working. Now it's been 4-5 months since I bought this machine and the issue is still there after every one or two weeks Alienware Command Center ... MoreI bought this laptop earlier this year in January or December was so excited about this machine because of my online research and after watching tons of review videos on different platforms.

On dells.com/software it says m15r7 isn't supported for Alienware command center and with out it this machine is pretty much useless and wastage of money.

This is my first Alienware PC coming from others such as a Strix Scar and ROG Zephyrus and I must say that this machine is a beast! It handles every game I throw at it including all of the latest triple A titles at ultra settings with FPS over 60 (usually in the 100's) and this is with the 12th gen i7 and 3070ti. It handles thermals quite well under load usually hanging around 70-80 degrees with a few spikes into 90. The only issue I have, and it's more of a nit pick, is the fan noise. I'm not just talking about loud fans because let's be honest it's a gaming PC the fans will get loud. It's more of the whine that's follows when they kick in. I'm not sure if this is just my device specifically but when they start to ramp up they make a whining sound almost akin to a ... MoreThis is my first Alienware PC coming from others such as a Strix Scar and ROG Zephyrus and I must say that this machine is a beast!

I'm not sure if this is just my device specifically but when they start to ramp up they make a whining sound almost akin to a high pitch whistle and it gets pretty annoying when playing without headphones. Another issue is that the battery life is not that great I get about 4-5 hours at best just doing basic things like surfing the web and streaming videos which isn't quite bad for a gaming PC but some others nowadays are getting upwards of 8-10 hours. Other than those two things everything else is fantastic. The display is amazing I have the QHD 240hz. The port selection is plentiful and the location is good as well with the majority of the I/O located in the rear. the keyboard is fantastic, one of the best I've used on a laptop I have the M series with per key RGB. The build quality is great this thing feels like a tank. The webcam is ok but having windows hello makes it even better. All in all I am extremely happy with this PC and look forward to see what else Alienware brings in the future.

Good performance.Pretty loud however. The alienware software is pretty useless and doesn't really control the fans very well, but there is alternative open source software to make this bearable. It's worth noting, there isn't a fan controller onboard as far as I am aware, so all fan controls are pushed to the motherboards internal controller, making it slightly more difficult to get an even fan curve. Alienware could sort their software to make this better as other open source providers have done it, and they could do with a rework of the entire app.No type-c charging, even from a powerful enough dock. And there is an error that appears on every boot to tell you this... Which is highly frustrating. This error even happens when you have the mains power in.

But definitely needs a bit of customisation to get rid of bloat and the awful alienware software.

This model is pretty much great hardware, but there is few simple but critical issues that is very annoying, I hope all is fixable and be better in future (as all is UEFI firmware related). First one is that when external USB-C monitor is connected (that is also can provide power), UEFI is always prompting that there is power source connected to the port that doesn't support it - this is ok, but there is no option to bypass it, so every boot you have to confirm that this is ok and continue to boot, this is very annoying, and other option to disconnect monitor on every boot like in stone age. Second one is about external keyboard that is also on connected via USB-C, mouse is working great, but external keyboard is getting identified by UEFI firmware incorrectly and ... MoreThis model is pretty much great hardware, but there is few simple but critical issues that is very annoying, I hope all is fixable and be better in future (as all is UEFI firmware related).

Second one is about external keyboard that is also on connected via USB-C, mouse is working great, but external keyboard is getting identified by UEFI firmware incorrectly and messing the keys around. So you can't use your external keyboard in pre boot environment. Another issue (that is pretty much out of official support I get it) is with the Linux sound driver, that is not working out of the box, until you can provide special option for sound driver on boot, easily fixable but still the fault is coming from UEFI. Please fix it.
Ever since I've gotten this computer, I've been ecstatic. I've been able to play games I never could have imagined, do things my laptop could have never dreamed of. Yet, Everything always felt like it came to a weird boil. Windows 11 is my main gripe with this PC; The fact it was forced even moreso. I'm not exactly certain what has happened with this computer, but for some reason, on multiple occasions, Windows 11 will just randomly fail to boot correctly. I genuinely feel like this hampers the mood sometimes, where I'd boot it up, just to be met with a screen recommending me to restart the PC, just for a chance to get the same screen after the restart. The functions that the desktop gives me is ecstatic, and having this rainbow fridge just casually sitting on my ... MoreEver since I've gotten this computer, I've been ecstatic.

I genuinely feel like this hampers the mood sometimes, where I'd boot it up, just to be met with a screen recommending me to restart the PC, just for a chance to get the same screen after the restart. The functions that the desktop gives me is ecstatic, and having this rainbow fridge just casually sitting on my desk feels amazing sometimes. But, when it just proceeds to fail (Which I don't completely blame on Dell, Microsoft has their dirty mitts in there I'm sure) It can't help but stress me out a bit, being afraid of if a file on my pc has been corrupted or not. For additional context; I have factory reset this PC on multiple occasions, and still, the issue persists.
After Dell botched the repairs by sending bad quality parts, they sent me a refurbished laptop with discoloration next to the track pad on the palm rest area (even though I was told it's new) with cheaper/worse quality parts. The screen is visibly dimmer and less sharp with massive backlight bleed (BOE Panel instead of LG). The CPU scored up to 40% less in Timespy and CInebench.When I complained about this, I was told to either keep this replacement unit or keep the original one and hope they manage to fix it. If I keep the original one, they will not send another replacement in the future. They legit told me that they don't guarantee performance. As long as the parts pass the diagnostics, they work. Doesn't matter if it can't even run a potato of a game, or lags ... MoreAfter Dell botched the repairs by sending bad quality parts, they sent me a refurbished laptop with discoloration next to the track pad on the palm rest area (even though I was told it's new) with cheaper/worse quality parts.

Doesn't matter if it can't even run a potato of a game, or lags and stutters quite often while running basic programs since they are third party.I expected to have comparable performance with a replacement laptop, something I had originally paid for. However Dell has turned this into a lottery. If I was buying this brand new, I'd return it in a heartbeat. But Dell has my money and I have little choice in the matter.
Love this laptop. From its sleek refined lines to its hidden power underneath, this laptop delivers a wonderful experience. The combination of a powerful Ryzen 7 6800H Processor teamed with a full power RTX 3070TI mobile GPU with 8GB GDDR6 memory, there are many long hours of fantastic gaming to be had. With its blazing fast 16GB 4800 MHZ DDR5 memory and 512GB NVMe PCIe SSD Drive, you are outfitted to win. There are 2 NVMe Slots with Heatsinks included. Let's talk about the vibrant 240HZ 400 Nit plus 2560x1440p display. Love Love Love. Crisp and clear and nearly no light bleed (Godsend). Can't ask for more. Yes, this is iconic Alienware design but who cares, you can game like no tomorrow on it, and it won't break a sweat! Get it today, you will not regret it! The ... MoreLove this laptop.

The RGB backlit keyboard is awesome and gets very bright! Speakers aren't half bad and support Dolby Access which is included now on the newer Alienware Laptops. Yeah, no more cruddy Nahimic Software to control the sound system. Grab on sale now as the price is going to return to its regular price soon!
Solid build quality, and performs decently even in "silent" mode.Battery Life: Can't expect too much out of this thing on battery seeing how it's meant to be a desktop replacement, but it was "okay" on AMD. Intel might be another story.Speed: Mine had a 3070 TI on it, was able to play Hogwarts Legacy at Ultra with Ray Tracing turned off without any issues. The GPU hits 140W without issue.Display: No complaints at all.One thing to note is that this thing has a high pitched fan noise when compared to another laptop I tested, a Asus ROG Zephyrus G15. Must have something to do with the blade design.Unfortunately taking a star off since I had to return mine due to a GPU issue (screen was ghosting badly and tearing).I got this as "Open Box Excellent" at a ... MoreSolid build quality, and performs decently even in "silent" mode.Battery Life: Can't expect too much out of this thing on battery seeing how it's meant to be a desktop replacement, but it was "okay" on AMD.

I'm assuming this unit got returned to begin with due to the random tearing / gpu issue. The only other time I've seen this happen is on an older MacBook Pro with a failing GPU due to a soldering issue I believe.

The design of the laptop is sleek and modern, making it a pleasure to use.One of the standout features of this laptop is the high-quality display, which makes streaming movies and TV shows a treat. The keyboard is comfortable to type on and the touchpad is responsive, making it easy to navigate through the various features and functions of the laptop.I also appreciate the customer service I received when purchasing the laptop.

I'll keep this short, I have owned Alienware in the past, and after trying several Asus, I finally decided to wait for a sale and just buy Alienware again. Well I purchased this Model from a local Bestbuy. I went through so many problems from minor backlight bleed that I was willing to live with, to issues with crackling in speakers, to lights shutting off for Alienware power button and lights on back. I had to shutdown and reboot the laptop to get those lights to come back on, even reinstalling Alienware command center didn't work. And I had to manually turn Optimus on, to stop the unit from freezing for 5 seconds when switching between igpu to dgpu and back. Finally I got it to a livable state and suddenly I noticed a dead pixel... then I noticed not just one ... MoreI'll keep this short, I have owned Alienware in the past, and after trying several Asus, I finally decided to wait for a sale and just buy Alienware again.

Finally I got it to a livable state and suddenly I noticed a dead pixel... then I noticed not just one more, but 8 dead pixels! I reluctantly exchanged it. The second unit I booted had a deformation in the top left screen; I immediately exchanged it for the third unit. Praying that nothing was wrong, I hit the boot button and there in the center of the screen was a dead pixel, surrounding that screen was the worst backlight bleed I've seen on any of their units. I returned it. I give up finding a gaming laptop with no quality control issues. I blame the people dell partnered with (BOE), not dell directly, for the screen issues. I sincerely hope the quality control issues for modern screens gets corrected in the next couple years, I guess I will just have to build another desktop for now...
