Alienware M11x - 11.6in Gaming Laptop

This 11.6in machine puts the 'laptop' back into gaming laptop.

Arguably the Alienware M11x is the first true gaming laptop. Not only can it play games well, it can be used on the move just like any normal laptop - more so than most, in fact, as its battery life is among the best in the market. We'd probably wait...

Alienware M11x review

When a company makes the claim that it can keep hardcore gamers happy and offer a product that is truly portable, even in todays world, it's acknowledged that that's quite a claim, does the M11x deliver?

Alienware M11x R3 review

Gaming laptops don't need to be great hulking brutes. They can be small and (relatively) light while still giving you the power you need, like the Alienware M11x which packs a Sandy Bridge Core i7 and an Nvidia GT540M graphics card into an 11.6-inch...

Ultraportable gaming notebook with plenty of power

No optical drive and a poor keyboard

Squeezing a gaming machine into an 11-inch form factor is a challenge, and it's not quite clear if Dell has succeeded with the Alienware M11x. It's certainly powerful enough, but you're going to miss the optical drive - after all, most games still come...

Alienware M11x notebook

When we first heard word of the Alienware M11x, we raised an eyebrow. The company, famous for its mammoth gaming machines claimed it was planning the world's most powerful ultra-portable laptop, with an 11-inch screen but the ability to play Crysis....

Fantastic performance considering its size

Cramped keyboard, iffy viewing angles

The M11x is a premium machine that you'll pay a premium price for. It offers astounding performance for its size, but the cramped keyboard, gaudy design (which might be to your taste, but isn't to ours) and slightly iffy viewing angles on the display...

First Look: Alienware M11x

Dell surprised many people with its announcement at CES that the next Alienware machine to join the company's hardcore gaming line-up would be a tiny 11-incher that had more in common with a netbook than a traditional gaming PC. But despite its...

Great performance for such a tiny machine

A little hefty, non-replaceable battery

We don't have any pricing or release date info just yet but this thing looks pretty much finished, so it probably won't be long before it makes its way onto the market - we'd give it a couple of months at most. It'll cost $800 in the US, which will...

Alienware M11x R3 review

We will be reviewing the newest Alienware M11x R3 which, at least in terms of appearance, is an almost exact replica of its forerunner model that was released in 2010. In terms of the hardware component, the latest M11x has received a hardware boost,...

We expected a lot of the Alienware M11x R3 unit, and for the most part it delivers on its end of the deal. However it has certain drawback such as a relatively average Audio speaker system and the fact that it heats up to quite an extent under a heavy...

Alienware m11x (Core i5) review

Alienware's tiny gaming terror returns, and this time with a performance upgrade. But is the M11x still our favourite portable gaming powerhouse?

Not quite the performance upgrade we hoped for, but still the ultimate ultra-light laptop for games

Dell Alienware M11x review

The 11.6-inch ultraportable Dell Alienware M11x laptop has enough power to play all the latest titles while making only modest compromises, yet it's considerably more portable than typical gaming notebooks in the 15-inch range, let alone giant...

The Dell Alienware M11x is certainly heavy for an ultraportable laptop. It's thicker than many of its contemporaries, too. As a gaming laptop, it's downright svelte. Even 13- or 15-inch models that offer this kind of performance typically weigh more,...
