Esports titles like Valorant and CS:GO should make good use of that 360Hz refresh rate, with framerates easily reaching into the hundreds.

Unsurprisingly, the RTX 3070 Ti powering our review model of the Alienware M15 R7 absolutely dominated in gaming benchmarks at 1080p Ultra settings, comfortably clearing 60 fps in anything we threw at it. TechRadar Battery Life Test: 3 hours and 59 minutes PCMark 10 (Battery life test): 3 hours and 4 minutes Here's how the Alienware M15 R7 performed in our suite of benchmark tests:ģDMark Night Raid: 42,028 Fire Strike: 24,099 Time Spy: 10,852 In terms of physical connectivity, there are three USB-A ports, RJ-45 Ethernet, HDMI port, headphone jack, and a Thunderbolt 4 port - though be aware that the latter is replaced by a regular USB-C on the cheapest 3050 Ti models.

We’ve got Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 built-in, a new standard inclusion for gaming laptops these days. The trackpad is a bit on the smaller side, but it’s very responsive and you’ll likely be connecting a mouse for gaming anyway.
There’s a tiny amount of flex in the keyboard if you press very firmly on the keys in the center, but that’s not surprising given the plastic construction. The keyboard is pretty good, with a nice amount of travel (about 1.8mm) on the keys meaning that mistypes are kept to a minimum. A 1440p version with a 240Hz refresh rate is available on certain SKUs, if higher resolution is more important to you. Maximum brightness is good, and color reproduction - while perhaps not the absolute best we’ve seen in a gaming laptop - is vivid and clear. Naturally, the 360Hz display is a defining feature of the Alienware M15 R7, and we’re pleased to say that it’s just a good screen all around. The all-plastic chassis feels a tad cheap (more of a problem if you opt for one of the $3,000+ models) but the matte finish looks good and does a great job of repelling fingerprints. The Alienware logo still sits illuminated by RGB LEDs on the back of the screen, while another doubles as the power button a large ‘15’ etching dominates a quarter of the lid, and the hexagon-patterned grille for the speakers and air intake still sits above the keyboard.Īll this is fine - it’s become an iconic design for Dell’s gaming laptop brand over the past few years, and while we’d be happy to see it shaken up a little, it’s still aesthetically sound.

With Windows 11 Pro and Alienware’s other bells and whistles, this version costs a whopping $4,045 and is only available in the US. The highest-spec model possible uses an RTX 3080 Ti along with an AMD Ryzen 6900HX processor, 64GB of memory, and 4TB of storage. This exact version isn’t available in Australia, but a comparable model with a 1440p screen costs AU$4,505. We’d actually be inclined to say that the model we were sent for review is better value for money, costing $2,350 (inexplicably more expensive in the UK at £2,479) but offering a much more powerful RTX 3070 Ti, double the RAM and storage, and that super-speedy 360Hz display. Clocking in at $1,499 (£1,399), this model also has a more refrained refresh rate on its display, a still-respectable 165Hz. The most budget-friendly option comes with an Intel Core i9-12700H, RTX 3050 Ti, 16GB of DDR5, and half a terabyte of SSD storage. This feature is present on the Australian website too, albeit with a far more limited selection. The Dell website allows US and UK buyers to select from a massive range of possible configurations, essentially building your preferred Alienware M15 R7 before proceeding to the checkout. Ports: 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen 2, 1x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, 1x Thunderbolt 4, 1x HDMI 2.1, RJ-45 Ethernet, combi audio jack Here is the Alienware M15 R7 configuration sent to TechRadar for review:
