Alienware x14 (2022)

The Alienware x14 is the world's slimmest gaming laptop, but does it deliver enough quality behind that svelte design?

Thin, sturdy and good-looking exterior ; Great 1080p gaming power ; Huge processing ability ; Impressive screen, keyboard and connectivity

Rivals faster in games ; Tiny touchpad ; Mediocre speakers ; No display upgrades

The Alienware x14 is the world’s slimmest gaming laptop, and it impresses elsewhere with good gaming performance, a fantastic processor and a great design, screen and keyboard. That said, more gaming grunt is available from other 14-inch machines, and...

Hands on: Alienware X14 review

The X-series makes sense now

Alienware x14 review: graceful gamer

This slim 14-incher delivers great performance in a tiny package - but does the Alienware x14 compromise in an effort to shed weight?

Great mainstream gaming speed ; Excellent 1080p display ; Impressive ports and connectivity ; Robust, good-looking and slim exterior

Mediocre battery life ; Noticeable fan noise ; Tiny trackpad

Rock-solid mainstream performance inside a slim, attractive and sturdy chassis – although you’ll get more power and longevity elsewhere.

Alienware x14 review: Is thinnest best?

With the Alienware x14, the company tries to make the case for an extremely thin gaming laptop. Does it work?

Incredibly thin Lots of ports in back Solid performance Excellent build quality Comfortable keyboard

Limited to RTX 3060 Wrist rests are too small Thick, plastic bezels

“The Alienware x14 takes the concept of a compact laptop further than ever before.”

The new Alienware x14 is insanely thin, even compared to laptops like the Razer Blade 14 and ROG Zephyrus G14.

Alienware X14 review: fast and thin, but far from perfect

A smaller Alienware is finally on the menu

The X-series chassis design is stunning ; Good performance for its thickness ; Plenty of ports

Costly ; Cramped keyboard layout ; Less performance that other similarly priced laptops

Alienware’s X14 is a smaller, 14-inch version of the company’s more powerful X15 and X17 gaming laptops. While the X14 matches the look and is speedy in its own right, a high price and other issues hold it back.
