A smaller form factor gaming laptop that's not particularly portable
At least compared to its competitors. We wish it wasn't this heavy
Core i5-4210U limits the performance of the GTX 860M

The Alienware 13 is a compact yet very powerful laptop, suited to playing all modern Windows games. It's chunky thick but relatively light in weight, and has been well designed and equipped to be a premium yet still portable powerhouse....

I'm not entirely sure. The idea of taking all my games on the go, then coming home and plugging them into a desktop graphics card, monitor, mouse, and keyboard sounds pretty fantastic. But the Alienware 13 is still pretty chunky and still lacks the batter...
Very good build quality, Unique looks, Comfortable keyboard + touchpad
Not the best performer, Expensive
The Alienware 13 is good performer but it loses out to couple of sub-100k laptops, like the Lenovo Y50 and ASUS X550JK. The laptop will perform better with an external GPU, which can be used via the Alienware Graphics Amplifier, which again requires you t...
