The Alienware m15 makes good on its slim form with lots of gaming grunt and long battery life. It's a very solid 15-inch gaming laptop, though a few bits—bezels, body materials—need sprucing up.

If you don’t mind paying for portability, the Alienware m15 is one of the best light(er) gaming laptops around right now. The slimmer, lighter design hasn’t brought any serious compromises on power or performance, and even battery life is surprisingly strong.
The only real downsides here are the outsized top bezel and the fact that it runs hot – two reasons you may want to look at the more recent m15 R2 models.

The Alienware m15 builds on top of the popular Alienware 15 series into one of the most compelling compact gaming laptops of the moment. It's not as small or as light as the competition, but is well built and offers the build quality, the screen options, the performance, the IO and the battery life you'd expect from such a computer, while remaining competitively priced. This is not without its share of flaws though, and even some potential deal-breakers, and we'll talk about all these aspects throughout the comprehensive review below.

The Alienware m15 has almost everything going for it – a stylish lightweight design, the option of an ultra-smooth 144Hz display and enough power to blast through most games in Full HD at 60fps – but it's expensive, especially considering a lack of support for Nvdia's G-Sync technology.
