The editors didn't like

  • It's loud
  • And the battery life could be better
  • Portable for a supremely powerful laptop that is. The m15 is a 15-inch laptop
  • Which means it's already pretty dang big
  • And it's a gaming laptop
  • Which means it's got a lot more fans and heatsinks to keep
  • Consider waiting a few weeks for the latest RTX graphics cards. Adding better options like the 144Hz screen drives up the price
  • And the red color is only available in the top-end model
  • Loud fans
  • Mediocre SSD Performance
  • Pricey at some popular configs
  • Can get warm in spots while gaming
  • Expensive
  • Fans are a little loud sometimes
  • Mediocre battery life
  • Thicker than alternatives
  • Some configurations pricier than competition
  • Not as light as the competition

  • Overall, we're in two places with the Alienware m15. This is clearly their best laptop design. It's thinner and lighter than regular Alienware laptops, and that's a step in the right direction. As most gaming laptop competitors have this sort of system on...

  • Dell's Alienware M15 Gaming Laptop really is a testament to how much gaming laptops have evolved over the last 5 years. Moving away from massive bulky chassis which might as well be swapped for a PC the modern laptop is becoming something that is able to...

  • Mediocre battery life, Thicker than alternatives, Some configurations pricier than competition
  • There's no question there are plenty of slimmer gaming laptop options out there. With its advanced thermal cooling technology, sleek gaming design, and various customizable options, the Alienware m15 definitely meets the criteria for a gaming laptop. Whil...

  • Sturdy and subtle design, Fast performance, Great display, Excellent keyboard and trackpad
  • Not as light as the competition
  • Overall, the Alienware m15 is a better value than the competition. It's not as light as MSI's, and it's not as sleek as the Blade, but it's powerful and attractive enough for any gamer who wants a more portable gaming rig. Best of all, the Alienware m15 p...
