So far no one reported burn-in yet. People with Samsung phones or OLED phones reported start seeing burn in in two years. Maybe this screen's tech is better?

Dell is good tho, you can extend warranty and claim if got burn in, so I guess not so much of a problem.

Some people went as far as inverting their UI color so it shows mostly black most of the time.

I'm sure that's cheaper than replacing the OLED panel.
So the guy who wanted to use his laptop for 5 years better know what is he getting into if he gets an OLED screen.

15 inch HD IPS or TN panel can get, but OLED and only AW13 is using, dun think it will be cheap to find.

guys, when will the Dell website start selling AW17 with GTX1080?? I see some local resellers selling the model with gtx1080, should i go with the resellers?

yeah you're right I don't know about that importer of scrap parts
what I do know there will be a lot of 15" IPS panel out there than 13.3" OLED panel, even in 2 years time. So the best thing to do is to buy extended warranty from Dell, or from you.

NB Plaza selling around 12k+, got online store and lowyat plaza store.

Hi guys,

I just own a m17x R2 from Australia,

my AW freeze everytime I plugin the adapter..

I can go into BIOS without problem, but it freeze after windows logo for loading or when on battery I plugin the power it will freeze too...

No problem occurs when I use the battery to boot up and use the laptop..

Should I change my AC adapter?

I got a Malaysia AW13R3, and my trackpad goes crazy when I use my laptop plugged in, in Australia.

Already on the latest update.
I haven't try using the trackpad in Malaysia plugged in.

Purchased an AW 15 from myway1985 last month. DFO (Dell factory outlet) unit. Overall i'm very satisfied with the seller's service. Was in KL for a couple of days and contacted him last minute, he took time off and met me at my hotel to show me the product even before I confirmed the purchase. Friendly, honest and down to earth guy!  . Spent some time chatting with him about technology and games. He was happy to just talk, and not in a hurry to seal the deal and leave  .

About the product (DFO)

Unit came without the alienware retail box, manuals etc. I personally don't mind, but those who want to 'display' their boxes in their rooms may have to think twice  . Arrived in a brown dell box sealed, the laptop is packed with foam and the charger and installation CD is provided.

Some minor cosmetic flaws we're on this unit (No dents, just slight scratches on the plastic portion of the lid (Unnoticeable). With a DFO unit, don't expect a 100% perfect laptop because you pay for what you get  . For the specs I got (i7 6700hq, 1070), it's even cheaper than other brands    which was a steal.
However, the unit was a pre-december 2016 unit (overheating and huge difference in core temperatures on CPU; due to uneven placement of CPU heatsink and crappy thermal paste = 99c while playing overwatch/csgo). Units after december 2016 have been rectified by Dell (better thermal paste, thinner thermal pads to ensure even pressure on CPU die). I had to open it up and replace the thermal paste, but have yet to replace the thermal pads to thinner ones to fix the uneven contact on cpu heatsink. Undervolted by 0.14v, and now CPU temperatures reach 87c while gaming.

Will be attempting to replace the thermal paste with liquid metal (Thermal grizzly conductonaut) soon, if I can get my hands on it in Malaysia      .

Hi guys, need some opinion.

Is it worthy to buy this model of alienware?

A15FHD-701123G-W10-DFO  i7-6700HQ 16GB D4 1TB+256GB NV GTX970 3GB 15.6"FHD W10 1 YR / NORMAL DELL BAG

around Rm5k

Or should I buy the new inspiron instead? My budget is 5k<

Thanks.

a LOT of backpacks cant fit the alienware 15 in their laptop compartment . Not even my 17" laptop bag can fit it. too long (vents behind the screen)  . If possible, get the alienware backpack (but too flashy for me 

can't go wrong with an Alienware bag.
or you might wanna try debrand the bag yourself if it's too flashy.

Hi guys, where can I find the Orion backpack for 17"?

i search thru online cant find the one with the same price as in the first post.

I've updated the June 2017 trackpad driver for AW13 R3 and found that the trackpad has become much smoother.

Highly recommended update if you guys haven't done so.

I only install the driver from the installer, not the whole thing. I don't like crapware...
