Alienware m16 R2 Review – Striking the Balance Between Gaming and Productivity but the CPU Falls Short for Power Users
Källa: Laptop Media EN→SV
The Alienware m16 R2 is a well-built gaming laptop. Its solid chassis houses a great keyboard for both typing and gaming. The device has the typical Alienware distinctive design. You can also use the “Stealth” mode which turns off all the RGBs for a more muted appearance when using the notebook outside your home. The cooling solution does its job well. The optional Core Ultra 9 185H can sustain 3.45 GHz / 2.92 GHz P and E-core clock in longer stress. In this scenario, the fans aren’t noisy in “Performance” mode and the keyboard doesn’t get toasty to the touch. The “Balanced” preset offers slightly reduced CPU and GPU frequencies but that’s fine since the performance is just slightly hindered but the fan noise is lower.

80% Alienware m16 R2 gaming laptop review: A perfect combo of power and practicality
Källa: The Indian Express EN→SV
Dell’s Alienware-branded gaming laptops are known for two things: high performance and iconic design. The recently launched m16 R2 continues to follow this trend while incorporating changes to make it more practical than ever before. I started testing this machine with two specific questions in mind: Is this the best high-end gaming laptop (it costs approximately Rs 2,00,000), and what makes it better than most gaming laptops?

Alienware’s M16 R2 Gaming Laptop Is Mighty But Has A Big Portability Problem
Källa: USA Today EN→SV
The Alienware m16 R2 is a well-built, high-performance machine that competes on price and specs with other great gaming laptops. Its display is geared up for quality gaming and it boasts an array of ports that make it easy to set up at a desk. Windows Hello facial recognition pairs well with a decent webcam, and a great keyboard rounds out the whole package. Performance often comes with a cost, however, and in this case those costs are noise and battery life. The Alienware m16 R2 may be able to keep up with some of its contemporaries in speed, but it can get pretty whiny. Even when the performance is dialed back considerably it can struggle to match the stellar battery life of options like the HP Victus 16 (2022) or Acer Nitro 16 (2023).

70% Alienware m16 R2 review: threading the needle
Källa: Digital Trends EN→SV
The Alienware m16 R2 feels like a fresh start for the brand’s gaming laptops. In the era of compact, discreet laptops like the Razer Blade or ROG Zephyrus G14, Alienware laptops haven’t always followed the trend. The m16 laptops, particularly, were the defiantly chunky ones in the lineup. But with the Alienware m16 R2, many of the hallmarks of the company’s designs have been traded out for something that looks and feels more conventional.

81% Alienware m16 R2 review: When less power makes for a better laptop
Källa: Engadget EN→SV
For 2024, it would have been so easy for Alienware to give the m16 a basic spec refresh and call it a day. But it didn’t. Instead, the company looked at its customers' preferences and gave it a revamp to match. So despite not having the same top-end performance as before, the R2 is still a very capable gaming laptop with a more compact chassis, improved battery life and a lower starting price of $1,500 with an RTX 4050. Sure, I wish its display was brighter and that there was another panel option, but getting 240Hz standard is pretty nice. Really, the biggest argument against the m16 R2 is that for higher-specced systems like our $1,850 review unit with an RTX 4070, you can spend another $150 for an ASUS ROG G16 with the same GPU, a brighter and more colorful OLED display and an even lighter design that weighs a full pound less. But for people seeking a well-priced gaming machine that can do a bit of everything, there’s a lot of value in the m16 R2.

100% Alienware M16 R2 review: portable gaming powerhouse gets a roaring update
Källa: T3 EN→SV
Many of the changes in this new version of the Alienware M16 aren’t focused on gaming; they're focused on making it more of a general-purpose laptop that's stealthily brilliant at running games. The reduced size and improved power management compared to its predecessor make it easier to carry and longer-lasting. Features like the Stealth Mode, which provides a neat way to switch from gaming to general-use mode with one key, brings a discreet mode to switch too. All that makes the Alienware M16 R2 an excellent pick for those who want to play games – but sometimes have to do other non-gamey things too. It's a brilliant solution that's very well executed.

Alienware m16 R2 Review: A Multi-Purpose Sleeper Gaming Laptop
Källa: Hot Hardware EN→SV
That said, the Alienware m16 R2 is not exclusively designed for a single type of user, such as enthusiast gamers. This machine is meant to be somewhat of a go-between device that's perfectly capable of handling any productivity or content creation workload one minute, while gaming the next and maintaining a low profile if you'd like to as well. We consider the Alienware m16 R2 a good option for anyone who games, but also has to be on the go and get serious work done -- which is a large mainstream demographic these days. Regardless of your use case, the Alienware m16 R2 is a good looking, well-balanced, all-around gaming laptop that holds its own at its price point. As tested, the configuration featured here with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 and Intel Core Ultra 7 155H comes in at $1,849, but this laptop line starts at $1,499.99 base price.

With all that being said, is the new Alienware m16 R2 gaming laptop any good? Of course. It can get pricey, but the higher price point is because of the new Core 7/9 Ultra and up to an RTX 4070 options — both well worth it. Otherwise, you can still get a 4050 or a 4060 for a slightly more affordable price. The choice is yours.

83% Alienware m16 R2 Gaming Laptop Review: A Sensible Option for 1440p Play
Källa: CNet EN→SV
For its second-gen midrange gaming laptop, Alienware rejiggered its midrange 16-inch m16 to fit more comfortably into its place in the company's gaming laptop universe. That meant lowering its configurations and redesigning it to meet the lower price target buyer. That puts the m16 R2 in competition with Dell's own G series, which is a lot cheaper for configurations with similar power, but also clunkier with last-generation components. There's a good set of options available for the m16 R2 line -- you can run the price up to $3,795. I wouldn't recommend that, though, since that's a lot to pay to get stuck with the meh display, unless you typically plan to use it connected to an external monitor.

80% Alienware m16 R2 review (2024 generation- Core Ultra 7, RTX 4060)
Källa: Ultrabook Review EN→SV
The Alienware m16 r2 is a worthy successor to the version they put out last year. It maintains a high level of performance while offering a much smaller footprint and far less heft than before. It also comes with a better keyboard and trackpad layout. But Dell didn’t go as far as to improve everything that was wrong with the r1. This still runs hot in certain spots with sustained loads. It also still has mediocre speakers and webcam, and only a so-so display. And let’s not forget that the power modes and Advanced Optimus are still pretty buggy, at least for now.

Dell's latest gaming laptop is an ultraportable machine I wouldn't mind bringing to work
Källa: Zdnet.com EN→SV
I recommend the Alienware m16 R2 to people who want a laptop that can pull double duty. It excels at being an entertainment/gaming machine but it's inconspicuous enough for the office. Prices for the laptop start at $1,549, but if you start upgrading the hardware to look something like my review unit, it'll cost you $1,849. I should mention that it's possible to customize certain parts of the device even after you've purchased it. You can, for example, upgrade the SSD from 1 TB of storage up to 8 TB. To learn how to do this, you'll have to follow the set of instructions on pages 36 to 44 of the laptop's Owner's Manual. You can find said manual on Dell's website.

90% Alienware m16 R2 review: This gaming laptop can be your daily driver
Källa: PC World EN→SV
The Alienware m16 R2 is a great laptop. It delivers strong graphics performance thanks to its Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 along with decent CPU performance. And it delivers all that while offering long battery life away from an outlet — long battery life for a gaming laptop, anyway. However, the display is a good IPS display, but it’s on the dim side, and I can see that being an issue for some people. This Alienware machine is a great value for its specs, its retail price beats similar systems like the Asus ROG Zephyrus M16 and the HP Victus 16 (2023). If you find an RTX 4070 laptop with an even cheaper retail price, it may make some sacrifices. For example, it may have a lower-resolution screen with a lower refresh rate. If you’re shopping for a laptop in this price range and you want a machine that can do more than just be tethered to a desk and play games, it’s a great fit. I just wish its display could be a bit brighter – but that’s not a deal-breaker considering everything else this laptop gets right.

60% Alienware m16 R2 review: a slow, fresh start
Källa: Digital Trends EN→SV
Overall, the Alienware m16 R2 is a reboot of the design and sets the foundation for where things could go. But we’re not there yet. If you can find the Alienware m16 R2 discounted by a couple hundred bucks, it might be a solid pick-up, especially if you’re a fan of Alienware. It does what it sets out to do, and fixes many of the issues with the original model. But at this price, there are some better options out there, many of which include last-gen gaming laptops that perform just as well. Amazon and Best Buy are full of RTX 4070 gaming laptops right now for significantly cheaper. It’s not this laptop’s fault that new mobile GPUs haven’t launched in 2024, but the performance parity with last year’s gaming laptops means newer devices really need to make a statement with its design, display, or price. The Alienware m16 R2 just barely misses the mark in walking that balance.

In the competitive world of gaming laptops, the Alienware m16 R2 carves out a niche and executes its concept well. Stopping well shy of the $2,000 price barrier, it spends your money in the right places, offering imprssive performance with a premium build and feature set. A few systems will get you similar frame rates for less money but lack some of the high-end finishes and features that make the m16 R2 such an attractive package. We think the 14.5-inch Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 is a bit more appealing to a wider swath of on-the-go gamers, but the Alienware is easily the go-to alternative for more power or a larger screen. Though we didn't get the opportunity to test it, the RTX 4060 base model may be an even better buy.

70% Alienware m16 R2 review: Excellent redesign thwarted by a subpar display
Källa: Laptop Mag EN→SV
Alienware’s m16 R2 is a solid gaming laptop that leaves much to be desired, particularly in its quest to fulfill your needs as a product for productivity. Battery life under eight hours and a dim display are both vital issues for something that will accompany you through school projects or a workday. However, the Alienware m16 R2 is an exceedingly powerful gaming laptop, consistently being one of the best in our performance tests when compared against similar products. Even then, its display is lacking color, its fans get pretty darn loud, and its speakers aren’t punchy enough to rise above that noise. For a superior display with better audio, we recommend the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro. But if you’re on the lookout for a lighter and thinner Alienware gaming laptop that can deliver in power, look no further than the Alienware m16 R2.

Dell has chosen to leave the already gorgeous aesthetics of the Alienware x16 R2 refresh untouched from previous versions, barring a beautiful rainbow touchpad that complements the RGB keyboard.

This Alienware m16 R2 refresh has reduced the frankly massive and unwieldy size of the previous model by 15%, an incredible achievement.

Port selection is solid and thankfully it includes an ethernet port, which oddly can be missing from other desktop replacements.

Alienware m16 R2 HANDS-ON: Not Your Average Alienware Laptop!
Källa: Tom's Guide
The Alienware m16 R2 straddles the fence between gaming and productivity. Though it bears the hallmark Alienware logo and is bulkier than an ultraportable, this redesign of last year’s Alienware m16 is suitable for those who also want to use this machine for everyday computing. Other than its sharp 16-inch display and Nvidia RTX 40-series GPU, the main draw is the inclusion of an Intel Core Ultra “Meteor Lake” processor. This chip’s NPU can perform AI-driven tasks faster than a processor lacking an NPU. In addition, pressing the F2 key instantly switches to productivity mode — which uses less power than performance mode. The Alienware m16 R2 is an intriguing device since it can function as both a work and gaming laptop. Its relatively subdued design is also attractive. It could be one of the best laptops of 2024.
