Reviews for the Alienware 16X Aurora Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus
The 16X Aurora can now be configured with more fancy features like OLED and the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. However, be prepared to pay upwards of $3000 for this midrange gaming laptop in the process.

The Alienware 16 Area 51 is an impressively powerful laptop that delivers across multiple aspects of performance. It has an incredible CPU, a respectable GPU, a healthy amount of RAM and a fast solid state drive. The model I reviewed also had a beautiful OLED display and a mechanical keyboard. Unfortunately, the Area 51 with the OLED display also struggles with short battery life, and the laptop’s design is a bit drab considering its price. However, if you care more about performance than portability or looks, the Area 51 is a fantastic choice—both for gaming and for any workload that requires a beefy CPU.
