More on this when we get to thermals, acoustics and our quick, partial tear-down.ДЄnd of course all of this is backlit with RGB goodness controllable via AlienwareвЂ™s excellent Command Center software that lets you dial in per-key lighting effects, as well as various lighting zones of the machine, including the rear light pipe and Alienware logo accents on the lid.The first Windows 11 update arrived yesterday Thankfully, the X15вЂ™s rear chassis trim is angled up toward the user for slightly better access but Dell obviously had to make some hard choices to accommodate this machineвЂ™s cooling solution, so this is where all the key IO ports had to reside.

Finally, thereвЂ™s also a full sized HDMI 2.1 port, but wired ethernet connectivity for this machine will have to come via the aforementioned dongle. And thereвЂ™s that tiny MicroSD card slot that is great to have, especially for creative types with cards from cameras, though youвЂ™ll have to reach way back here to access it. Regardless, on the back side edge of this mobile battlestation is where virtually all the action is, including a USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 port with PowerShare, 2 USB-C ports, one with Thunderbolt 4 connectivity and the other USB 3.2 Gen 2 with power. Bezel area is fairly trim here too, actually. On top the top edge of the X15's screaming-fast display resides an Alienware HD (1280X720) webcam with dual array mics and Windows Hello IR support. and a relatively wafer-thin 15.9 inches.ДЄlienware X15 External Features and Design

In short, like we said earlier, this machine is dialed with just about every cutting-edge mobile PC platform technology that exists currently, but let's look at how it all comes together in just a little over 5 lbs. For networking support, an included 2.5Gbps Ethernet dongle gives you wired connectivity, while the latest in Wi-Fi 6E wireless technology is served by a Killer AX1675 802.11ax 2x2 NIC. Dell also includes a full-sized HDMI 2.1 port and a microSD card slot in the machine. Also, this an anti-glare coated VA panel with a modest 300 nits of brightness but serious gamers will love its ridiculously fast response times and virtually unlimited refresh rate that will take every frame the machine's GeForce GPU can throw at it, as fast as it can be delivered.ДЇor IO connectivity we've got a trio of USB-A and USB-C ports, the latter two of which sport either Thunderbolt 4 with PowerShare or USB 3.2 Gen 2 with PowerShare. It's on all the time (no user toggle required) and indeed we couldn't perceive any degradation in that regard.

Dell notes the panel delivers 99% of the DCI-P3 color gamut with no loss of image quality or color fidelity due to this hardware-based low blue light solution.

On the display side of things, you might say we again have a baller setup, with a 360Hz, 1ms panel that sports Dell ComfortView Plus hardware-based low blue light technology, along with NVIDIA G-Sync and Advanced Optimus.

Let's walk around this alien battleship a bit more in our hands-on video review, and then we'll dig in for a deep-dive forensic evaluation on the pages ahead. We'd concur this laptop looks and feels like no other we've laid hands on to date. Alienware currently offers the machine in one color - Lunar Light - with what the company calls a high-endurance clear coat, with a silky smooth finish. The new Alienware X15 laptop we're looking at here today is only 15.9mm thick and weighs just 5.2 pounds, but under the hood are design decisions that run deeper than its striking, futuristic-looking skins. Let's face it, no one really likes the bulk and chunky demeanor of most high-end gaming laptops that are designed for all-out performance.В It's a difficult, fine line to walk, but a worthy, noble one to develop a compelling, quality thin and light gaming laptop, and that's exactly what Dell went all-out for with the new Alienware X15. They essentially aim to defy the laws of physics, eschewing size and thermal dissipation area in an effort to strike a more portable, stylish design while still maintaining respectable gaming chops.

Thin and light gaming laptops are a bit of an enigma.
