Pros

This is a great gaming laptop that has fully met or exceeded my expectations. This notebook is the first notebook i've every really enjoyed playing games on.

I find very few computers that offer the uniqueness that alienware computers have. Great laptop from dell.

The screen is beautiful, as you should expect from ips technology. Crisp and clear, as expected. Works well for gaming.

Cons

Despite its weight and thickness, it isn't very rigid. It's unconscionable the way they behaved.

Dell laptop is a piece of the worst electronic junk i have ever owned. Since dell bought them out i guess that was the end of an incredible computer maker. Stay away from dell and go for a reliable gaming brand.

Competitiveness

Unlike the competitors alienware machines are able to utilize desktop class graphics cards via an external amplifier.

Upgrade options include up to 16gb of ddr4 memory at 2133 mhz (tested by dell) and an additional two m.

I feel the consumer has become the hostage of the manufacturer.
