The Alienware M16 is a well built gaming laptop that fumbles the bag. Like me, who forgot to fix the audio and make it stereo. Sorry.
Audio is not stereo on your video and not properly lit, making it uncomfortable to watch.
The info that your are providing is invaluable, respect for sharing this info that helps any potential buyer to solve the stutter issue without going in circles with dell support or self troublshooting. thank you for the video
We appreciate your kind comment. Thank you for taking the time. We are glad to help any way we can.
@@CreatorsTable was able to order one after i saw the video with 7945hx and rtx 4090 for 1999$ with 16gb and 1tb 240hz 1440p after rakuten cash back , I think it was great deal
Sorry, I don't speak English very well and I'm considering buying this computer since the Razer is not available in my country. Could you tell me what the problem is with the laptop? because I tried to listen to the whole video but I didn't understand
Mentioning support assist stutter earned my sub. No other reviews mentioned this.
I’m going to be charitable and assume it’s because the majority of people who review these are numb to the majority of laptops having some sort of issues that they just consider to be part of the experience. That’s what it feels like, because the experience for the average user is wildly different.
so what exactly was the change that took 6 minutes
Does uninstalling dell support assist uninstall drivers or other important files/etc? Or cause other issues?
No, it will not!
Hey man, I super appreciate this info. I just ordered one of these on sale and will probably just cancel my order. I have the chance to get a Helios predator with the same specs but only 16g of RAM(can just add more), or a Lenovo legion pro with 32g of RAM.
Do you think either of these is a better idea than the Alienware? I know in your video you said predator was fine but what about the Lenovo?
Predator is great. There’s some good deals for the 16GB 4080 model. Lenovo is great too. I think Lenovo wins for software and build quality but you can’t go wrong with either.
@@CreatorsTable thank you so much man, it's so hard finding this kind of info when you're just a casual PC gamer. I'm gonna go ahead and cancel the Alienware for the Lenovo

He said that uninstalling bloatware like Dell Support Assistant fixed the problem.
1. Screen is just barely bright enough
2. Has lots of garbage programs (bloatware) that slow down the laptop and is a pain to remove.
3. Speakers aren't that good.
I have never purchased a gaming laptop before. I found an Alienware m16 on sale for $1399 (originally $1999). It’s has an i7 13700HX, RTX 4070, 16GB DDR5, 1tb ssd and a 165hz QHD display. It also does have the per key rgb mentioned earlier in the video.
Would you consider this a good deal? I would remove the dell support assist application you mentioned. I need a laptop that can do everything such as gaming (I don’t do heavy gaming), taking to college, and other normal use. I cannot afford a $2k+ razer blade unfortunately.
Also, i would only take it around with me to college. Otherwise it stays home. And yes I understand the power brick itself weighs 2lbs
That’s a fair price for sure. As you mentioned, it’s definitely not the ideal notebook to bring with you to school. It’s heavy and just not very portability focused. If you can find a bit extra budget, consider a Zephyrus M16 with 4070. It’s smaller, has better battery life and a much nicer screen. But if you love the Alienware, $1400 is the most I’d pay.
This is the exact laptop I got too. I’m picking it up from Best Buy in a couple days. What do you think of the laptop? gaming performance? I’ve been watching a lot of videos on this and I see both negative and positive reviews but these are coming from people who don’t really consider the average buyer and who have a crazy speced out desktop pc. what’s your stance on it?
@@CreatorsTablethanks for the reply. Another question if you don’t mind but after removing the dell support assist software, did the noisy fans seem to get any better afterwards? How was it for just normal browsing and work after doing this step?
Use AWCC or SpeedFan to change your fan curves to better prioritize a balance of thermals and noise.
Sound on creator channels should work out of the box.
Just bought one with a 4090 in it. So just go into add/remove programs and remove anything that has Dell in the title and it should be fine?
Is it having those issues?
@@CreatorsTable just ordered it, it’s coming in on the 30th.
@@kevinchau5336hi man, how's the m16? I'm planning to buy m16 with rtx 4090, but a lot of review says this laptop is not really good
WTF IS THIS AUDIO
So sorry. We will fix the audio and link the new version in the description
I have the m16 with the rtx 4080 and it stutters constantly no matter what you are doing. I returned it got another and it does the same thing. I removed software and got rid of the problem for a while but its back now... so annoying! anyone else dealing with this. seems to be a common issue
Same problem here!
hey pls reply quixkly T_T should i buy m16 rtx 4080 ryzen 9? what do you think
@@godofeternals Well, in my case, apart from the stutters, I think everything is good. And it doesn't stutter that much(in my case, of course). But, for a latpot this price, it shouldn't have this problem at all!
@@MatheusCosta-zs4xm thanks a lot for the reply actually I'm getting it for 1800 bucks and 2000 after tax so that's why I'm planning on ordering it instead of the strix g18 which is higher prices without much of a difference in performance.. also is the ryzen 9 7845hx processor good for m16???
This dude is whispering so his boss doesn't catch him making a video about peespeez while on the clock. Also the Alienware laptops that use Ryzen cpu's are shit and frequently blue screen, every single one of them. This isn't AMD's fault, it's Dell's.
Nice TRD Sport Tacoma. 🫡
@@CreatorsTableits a turd
What a nightmare I'm having with this laptop. I recently purchased the AMD M16, and the performance drop I'm experiencing turns this supposedly powerful machine into nothing more than a piece of trash. Within just 10 minutes of playing, the CPU plummets from 5GHz to a mere 1.5GHz and remains stuck there. It's incredibly frustrating to have spent a significant amount of money on a device that delivers such poor performance.
Hey, was going to purchase amd Alienware m16 4060, but heard this issues a lot... Do you still have stuttering issues? Other than that is there any problem?
@@adilsaquif4692 don’t waste your money, don’t buy Alienware
@@ricardotrut but mate, its on offer rn, about 1100 dollar for r7 4060
I bought an Alienware M16 amd / 4070, before I saw this review, and it does seem to suffer from basic, but disturbing issues. It does blue screen much more often then my desktop did. I struggle to get Sleep mode to function properly, sometimes having to tell my computer more than once to go into sleep mode before it actually does. I have come back hours later to find my laptop did not go into sleep mode and was very hot. Lastly, the sound quality is horrible. I thought I was buying an Alienware, top quality gaming laptop... but no, the speakers and sound quality are awful. I hear way to much crackling, distortion and/or stuttering with zero depth. I guess it's not only me since it was mentioned in this review. I wish I would have known this fact before my purchase. I purposely bought a laptop after moving, in order to save space because I would have a smaller desk. I was hoping to avoid getting external speakers or having to always use headphones. If somebody could let me know if there is anything I can do to make the built-in speakers work better, please. Otherwise, I would not recommend this laptop to anyone.
*WHAT*

This review is so autistic because it assumes the viewer has a TON of knowledge without even mentioning said knowledge.
Autism? Me? Never. Thanks for the feedback.
@@CreatorsTable returned the laptop
