Alienware X16 R1 Gaming Laptop - 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz 3ms Display, Core i9-13900HK, 32GB LPDDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 12GB GDDR6, Windows 11 Home, Premium Support - Lunar Silver

3 years later and this bad boy is still pumping out 100+ frames on the most demanding games. However, it is absolutely a waffle iron. I’d recommend getting rid of the stock Liquid Metal paste, and moving to a high-end thermal paste like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut. Just be extremely careful when you clean the stock paste. I’d google why if I were you. 32gb 4080 version pumping out on max settings: CoD: 160 FPS Warzone: 90FPS BF6: 120FPS Path Of Exile: 120FPS Star Citizen v4.9 Vulkan: 80-180FPS (depending on location) Palworld: 100FPS (a little micro stutter) Gray Zone: 90-120FPS War Thunder: 360FPS (on Movie settings)

It managed to get into this boot loop within the first week, though, which could've been my fault. I had to send it out to Dell. They repaired it and sent it back and it's been running great since. I think they're great computers. Most games I run balls to the wall, with v-sync on. No problems.

I was very excited to receive my very expensive, first Alienware laptop. Out of the box, it did not disappoint. Software was a little buggy, but that was only a minor annoyance at best. The performance was incredible, I was very pleased. It worked very well, until suddenly it didn't work at all. The power just went off, and it wouldn't turn back on. I assumed that maybe it overheated. I left it off and unplugged for a while, then plugged it back in and let it sit a little longer. Still didn't work. I followed numerous suggestions I found online, but the system remained lifeless. Unfortunately, I was forced to do a return for a refund (replacement was not offered). I'm left with a negative view of Alienware after this experience. Had it concked out a few weeks later, I would have been beyond Amazon's return period. Then, I would have had to deal with the manufacturer. So, great performing laptop, when it works. But, buyer beware....

I don't normally use gaming laptops but it has come a long way in terms of performance. The 4080 is pretty good for a mobile gpu, but I still have to use DLSS for best performance. Also very competent for media creation like video editing. Horrible battery. Always use battery saver mode while not plugged to get near the advertised hours, otherwise you're looking at 1-1.5 hrs. This is more of a desktop replacement, with sparse portability (or portable with power brick with you at all times). Software is pretty buggy. It is sluggish and sometimes resets your settings. Fan is loud, but you all knew that. Also what was not mentioned on Amazon was this version has clicky mechanical keyboard switches, which I hate. Not the most accurate colors, not too bright either. There's better alternatives for the money, including AW's own M series. And IMO worse value than MacBooks in everything but gaming. I normally like other AW products like their monitors, but this ain't it.

I still bring it to work everyday the customer service was great when I needed it and had been great all around

I bought this for my son. He really likes it and works for what he wanted it for. I would highly recommend.

The software that is meant to keep this thing updated seems a lot like bloatware with an over priced warranty renewal proposal that you'll see every time you go to update anything past the expiration of the warranty. Look for trusted 3rd party software that can assist in keeping the computer up to date, and you have a decent laptop with an over the top price tag

Good for everything other than dispersing heat. Needs a tray or something to prop it up to increase the air flow

J'ai commandé le X16 r1 en décembre 2023. Après 1 an d'utilisation je suis encore très satisfait de mon achat. Il est encore aussi performant que le premier jour. Je l'utilise principalement pour jouer à des jeux et donc pour avoir la performance dont j'ai besoin il est presque toujours branché et rarement sur la batterie. L'écran à 240 Hz est un régal pour les yeux. Les jeux sont fluides. J'aime bien les touches du clavier. Elles sont un peu bruyantes, mais sans exagérer. Juste un petit clic et avec juste assez de résistance. Le trackpad est vraiment bien. Il supporte des gestes à plusieurs doigts et il est assez précis. Le seul point négatif, si j'avais à en trouver un, c'est que toutes les prises sont derrière le laptop. Bon ce n'est pas négatif en soi, mais j'aurais aimé que la prise d'écouteurs soit devant le laptop par contre car je perd beaucoup de longueur de fils à les brancher derrière.

Purchase and use it for a month. Works really well. Recommend !

Don't need to talk much about machine itself since it is a GOOD one. When I was unboxing the package it almost got me heart attack. The damage on inner box looks very scary. I am glad the protection inside inner box did its job. No scratch on machine and so far no broken on screen or hardware noticed.
