Extraordinary performance, Envy, inducing style, Great attention to detail
It's H, U, G, E, Absurdly expensive, Could use sharper screen
More so than the Alienware 17 and Origin EON17-S, or any gaming laptop in existence, users should think long and hard before picking up an Alienware 18. There are just far too many more affordable and sensible options out there. For roughly the same pric...
It's big, heavy and outrageously expensive – and at this price the display could offer better-than-HD resolution. However, the dual GPUs of the Alienware 18 really do provide the strongest performance we've yet seen from a gaming laptop. The only question...

Bulky and extremely heavy case, CPU & GPU throttling under maximum load, Turbo Boost potential cannot be used, Mediocre WLAN performance, High energy consumption, Bulky PSU, Fixed battery, Glossy display, Limited mobility
Alienware once again lives up to its reputation as a manufacturer of high-end notebooks. The successor of the M18x R2, simply called 18, not only impresses with its dignified design but also with the excellent performance. Nothing comes close to the perfo...
