Abstract: Looking for a high-end gaming laptop? If you're working from home and still want to game on that laptop, you must remember why you choose a laptop – it has to be powerful, and portable. Moreover, the price you get it for has to reflect the first two featu...
Attention-catching design, Gorgeous display, Powerful desktop-class innards, Ability to upgrade CPU and GPU
The rig's size makes it difficult to carry around, Sub-par battery life and the need to have two charging adapters, Steep pricing, Photos by Raj Rout, ShareTweet, Facebook Comments
The Dell Alienware Area 51m price in India starts at Rs 2,98,990 for the variant with the 9th-gen i7 processor and NVIDIA RTX 2070 graphics card. The unit that I'm reviewing is the higher-end one, and that will set you back by Rs 3,58,990. I have no doubt...

Desktop-level power thanks to actual desktop components. There are plenty of accessible parts inside for possible upgrades. Modern-feeling new design
As gaming laptops trend thinner and lighter, this one is bigger and heavier. No 4K screen option. Higher-end versions get expensive quickly
On top of a satisfying visual refresh of Alienware's highest-end laptop, the Area-51m offers plenty of processing overhead from desktop CPUs and the latest RTX GPUs. There's promise of potentially great future upgradability, but it's not yet been proven...
The most upgradeable laptop we've seen yet, Fast desktop components, Gorgeous new Alienware design, All the ports you'll ever need, Glorious 17-inch 144Hz screen
Keyboard and trackpad feel dated, Opening and upgrading parts is a bit of a pain, Poor battery life (not surprisingly), Expensive compared to other modern laptops, Heavy (especially with two large power adapters)
The Area 51m is a truly unique laptop. It's portable, but it packs in all of the power, and most of the customizability, that you'd want from a gaming desktop. Still, when other modern laptops are significantly thinner, cheaper, and almost as powerful, it...

Killer Gaming Desktop Performance In A Laptop, Amazingly Efficient And Sleek Design, Attractive, Space-Inspired Look, Acoustically Tamer Than You'd Expect, Exterior Thermals Are Reasonable, Fast, Thin-Bezel 144Hz Display
Pricey, Mediocre NVMe SSD Selection, No MicroSD Card Slot, Dual AC Adapters (Not Uncommon Now)
Dell's Alienware Area-51m is a refreshing new take on the traditional desktop replacement gaming laptop we've become accustomed to. The machine's fully user-serviceable, modular design combines some of the best high-end desktop class components for absolu...
4x SODIMM slots and 3x storage bays immediately accessible, near desktop-level CPU and GPU performance, comparatively lighter than the competition, absolutely silent when set to Quiet mode, both full-size NumPad and Macro keys, 144 Hz panel with minimal
short battery life; smaller battery than Alienware 17 R5, CPU at ~100 C when under 100 percent utilization, requires two AC adapters for full performance, no fingerprint reader or SD card reader, fewer storage bays than the MSI GT75, loud fan noise when
From a gen to gen perspective, the Area-51m is a respectable successor to the Alienware 17 R5. It keeps what we love about the older model (beveled keyboard, sturdy design, easy servicing) while updating several aspects we feel needed the most attention (...
