Thinner and aggressive new look
More efficient cooling

And battery life isn't going to help much with on-the-go gaming
Power and performance (CPU graphics), Sound quality, Connectivity, Low heat
Colour fidelity = fail, Touchpad a little cramped
With such high-level graphics and processing capability, plus amazing sound quality, the Alienware 17 would have everything it needs in its arsenal to fully immerse gamers in their games. If only it weren't for the screen's colours, which are just all ove...

Power, power and more power, Big 1080p screen, Decent battery life
LED-heavy styling, Not really portable, No 4k

If money is no issue, the Dell Alienware 17 is certainly one that we will recommend to those who want no compromise even when it comes to a mobile gaming machine. Its wide array of customizable options is also sure to get gamers excited as well.(previous...
