Alienware m15 R4 RTX 3070 Gaming Laptop Full HD (FHD), 15.6 inch - Intel Core i7-10870H, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6, Windows 10 Home - Lunar Light

This is literally the best computer I have ever owned. SSD is the way to go and with 512 gb even better. Everything just works instantly and the set up was super fast and easy.This definitely can be used for regular computing as well as normal gaming. I personally use this laptop for graphic design work, and it works perfectly with Adobe software. The colors and the graphics card are great, the ram, etc. are all very decent in this machine. It just opens instantly evetime. Also its an IPS screen, so every angle looks great on the screen. What really looks nice on the screen is that there are virtually no bezels around the side. Somehow the web cam fits up top and I love the slide closed feature to protect from scammers.I really like that the keyboards lights up and I feel it’s a real necessity, I especially like when the Caps key lights up as well with an additional on and off light. Its very important for me when I work in a dark room. The keyboard itself is really nice and smooth to type on and they are very quiet as well. I also really like the very discreet fingerprint scanner.The battery is absolutely amazing it lasts about 4-6 hours depending on what you are doing at the time, but I would have better numbers with an accurate battery test.The laptop is extremely light and because it doesn’t have large bezels the machine is a little smaller than my older 15 inch laptops.The sound quality is good, not the best but very decent and works well.I wish it was a touch screen as well but it’s not a deal breaker for me. I also wish the screen would get a litter brighter than the highest setting but again not a deal breaker for me personally. It would also be nice if the laptop would have some more usb drives since it doesn’t have a CD drive. One major flaw is the internal fan. The laptop gets very hot when not used properly and I highly recommend an external laptop fan for longer and gaming type usage. Without it the internal fan just gets too loud.Overall, this machine is a beast and I absolutely recommend this, great job Dell!

laptop plays everything including cyberpunk at max settings 300hz, so in this sense, its one of the best laptops ive ever had. it does get a little bit hot but it has a lot of fan options, so that's easily fixable if you dont mind hearing a loud fan. as a streamer, wouldnt recommend using loud fan setting unless you have a noise cancelling mic. as a gamer, you must wear a headset because it will get loud at highest fan setting, but not necessary to use that setting at all.theres a few things i dont like. Missing number pad on the keyboard. which is a small thing. doesnt effect my rating since its something you could see in the pictures, but its worth noting. Also this laptop didnt come with any manual (sure it has a small paper that shows the ports, but thats all you get in the box besides the laptop and power adapter) Another thing i liked about my old alienware is they had this alienware respawn application, which allows you to make a backup image of your stock alienware setup in case you want to factory default. that software is non existent here, and there isnt a substitute for it either, so if i have to factory default this device i have to rely on weather or not the partition is corrupt, which sucks. Cant have an external backup or anything. But besides these little setbacks, its definitly a nice upgrade from my gtx 1070 msi laptop. and having that octa core in conjunction with rtx 3070, cant go wrong. VIRTUAL REALITY NEVER PLAYED SO SMOOTH for my vr friends out there. My first review on amazon, so totally worth writing~

The machine work perfectly fine.

Hands down, everything you thought a gaming PC should be, this WILL NOT SATISFY. You can launch games, but they will crash. The reason? is because you DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH MEMORY and you cannot add to it. No laptop I have ever purchase has had hard installed, un-upgradeable RAM, but this PC does. And they do not tell you. 16GB seems like you should be able to get by, but even though my hardware manager says I'm only at 60% RAM consumption, I can clearly and I mean CLEARLY tell that RAM is the issue behind having night after night of embarrassing game nights with the boys where my PC cannot play games for more than 10-15 minutes without crashing and I spend the majority of our gaming session rebooting and trying to reduce memory consumption just to apologize and call it a note. No matter how much I update the game/OS or lower the graphics of the game, or follow best practices for optimizations, I cannot get this PC to be stable in FPSs, or other ridiculously low graphics requirements games. Do not, and I repeat do not buy this PC unless you're willing to fork up the money for the 32GB version.All this being said, IT CRASHES WATCHING ONLINE VIDEO. I restarted my computer to refresh everything reasonable that I could, watched about 45 minutes of videos, and the browser became so un-responsive I had to force shutdown the browser and reboot. I had to wipe my cache several times to get

I just received the m15 r4 a couple weeks ago, and have used it a bit since. A couple of times during a gaming session the computer would close out the game. Just suddenly exit. No clue what happened, and if this is a potential bigger issue lurking. Second issue is that just tonight my keyboard was not lit and would not react to any typing. I restarted and it did nothing. I closed my lid for 15 minutes and when I opened it again the keyboard was working like normal. Is this a potential issue down the road?I don't know if I hold onto it or send it back. Maybe someone could answer these questions.Other than those two things, the computer has run very fast. On League of Legends it runs 200+ fps. Typing feels really good on it, and opening up different applications is smooth.Thanks!

My first new laptop in 15 years and I am in heaven. Can't comment on all the bells and whistles, but I feel like Speedy Gonzales! Fast, light and super responsive.
