Should I cancel my Legion 5i Pro order for this?

Don’t, the Legion is far better.

Thank you, I think I will stick to the Legion as everyone is suggesting the same.

All gaming laptops have bad battery life. Stick to the Legion as it’s reliable at least.

Thank you. I didn’t know that Alienwares were unreliable. I just knew Alienwares were premium laptops and didn’t know much about Legions. Thanks again.

@Zeek
They are reliable. Dell just asks too much for them, though. They are good machines in my opinion.

I have a few friends who have had Alienwares in the past and they all broke one way or another prematurely. Sure, it’s anecdotal but no other brand has been like this.

@Peyton
I have friends with Nitros. I have never seen a shoddier laptop than that. Literally the worst laptops that I have ever used.

Oh yeah, Nitros and MSIs are also very bad.

@Peyton
Currently, I run a 3060 Katana. The screen is scratched from a keyboard bump and the cooling is not acceptable. My wife has a 3050 Nitro - it’s cheap, heavy, and it doesn’t cook its CPU. I understand that both are low-end options, but the latter is anecdotally leagues above the former exactly where it matters.

I wouldn’t swap an Alienware for a Legion unless it was overwhelmingly better. That’s a side grade.

Thank you. Even though I made my decision to stick to the Legion, can I know why the Legion is better than the Alienware M16 R2? I saw a lot of YouTube titles saying that Alienware is the best laptop of the year. Why so much hype around Alienware? Just curious.

@Zeek
Which YouTube videos were they? I really only trust @jarrodstech for laptop reviews. There’s not a lot of objective testing. Alienware are Dell, they have the same issues Dells do but in a prettier package. For the record, my work laptop is a Dell, my previous one was a Lenovo and I liked it much more.

@Zeek
‘Cool’ logo and design, that’s about it.

The Alienware processor is a serious downgrade if you’re gonna game.

Thank you, didn’t know that. Learning new things with every comment. I am glad I asked for opinion.

I’m glad I could help!

You shouldn’t cancel your order. Legion is a great laptop, and would be most people’s first choice!
