Black Friday Alienware deals are starting to roll in, which means it’s now your best chance to get the iconic X17 for less!

This device (at least the newest R2 variant) is one of the best Alienware 17in laptops on the market, indeed, one of the best gaming laptops of this size across any brand.

The Alienware X17 laptop (the R2 variant) manages to somehow combine slimline portability, with high TGP (and therefore more powerful) graphics cards – a very impressive technical feat to say the least. The screen is superb, the gaming performance is excellent, it has good cooling, and even the battery life is respectable. Besides the large powerbrick on the RTX 3080 option, virtually the only real downside of this laptop is the high price, and the Black Friday 2022 sales are a great opportunity to negate this.

While the newest R2 variant may be less likely to get a discount, we could see the R1 version in the sales this year. It’s also worth noting that much like with the Black Friday iPhone deals, you may be in with more luck if you chose ‘renewed’.

We’re searching far and wide and will be updating this page with all the latest in the build up to Black Friday and beyond, so be sure to check back in regularly.

When will Alienware X17 Black Friday sales start in 2022?

It’s hard to say exactly when Alienware X17 Black Friday sales will start in 2022, except that the latest we expect to see early Black Friday deals this year is the first week of November. Online retailers list Black Friday sale items earlier and earlier each year, as they attempt to snap up the custom of eager consumers before their competitors do. We wouldn’t be surprised therefore if we see the first Black Friday deals in October this year. Whether or not this will include Alienware X17 Black Friday deals remains to be seen.

Features to consider when looking for a Black Friday Alienware X17 deal

It’s hard to find much fault with the Alienware X17 R2, if you can afford the asking price. The X17 is thin, yet very powerful, has runs pretty cool yet also manages to have fairly quiet fans. The display not only has great color replication, contrast, brightness, and very high refresh rates, but also has a top-notch response time. The laptop even comes with a microSD slot for creatives.

You should be aware that the 300Hz option doesn’t come with MUX Switch & G-Sync, so we’d recommend trying to get hold of the 360Hz version which has both these features if you’re serious about gaming. Still, even without the performance boost of the MUX Switch, the CPU and GPU of options of this laptop are seriously powerful, particularly for such a thin machine, and will make short work of most games.

The Alienware X17 R1 is still a solid bit of kit, but is noway near the groundbreaking device of the revamped iteration. It will likely be available (at least in secondhand refurbished form) for much cheaper though.
