The Alienware 16X Aurora impressed us. It’s now $470 off!
Gaming is something we take seriously around here, so when I saw the Alienware 16X Aurora on sale for $1,499.99 at Dell.com (that’s a whopping $470 off!), I couldn’t help but run to the rooftops to shout it out. This stellar 24% discount on a stellar gaming laptop that normally goes for $1,969.99 is one you don’t want to skip.
This gaming laptop is a beast of a machine, featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with 24 cores for excellent performance that’ll cleanly handle all kinds of tasks. It’s paired with 16GB of DDR5 RAM, a spacious 1TB M.2 SSD with Windows 11 Home preloaded, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card with 8GB GDDR7 VRAM for gaming at smooth frame rates thanks to DLSS 4 features like multi-frame generation.
Whether you’re gaming or watching Netflix or even just browsing Reddit, it’s going to look great on the 16X Aurora’s lovely 16-inch 2560×1600 (1600p) resolution at up to 500 nits of brightness. It’s perfect for gamers with its speedy 240Hz refresh rate and Nvidia G-Sync support for minimal screen tearing. Attach a high-res external monitor via the HDMI 2.1 or Thunderbolt 4 ports and you’ll be in heaven.
Other niceties here include a fast USB-C 3.2 port, two fast USB-A 3.2 ports, a 1080p webcam that can do Windows Hello facial recognition, a gorgeous RGB full-sized keyboard, and a multi-touch Premium Precision touchpad. Expect about 3 hours of battery life with real-world usage, but that’s not a deal-breaker—it’s a high-performance machine, after all.
When we reviewed the 16X Aurora, we gave it a glowing 4.5-star rating and our Editors’ Choice award. Our reviewer thought it was an excellent value at full price, so how much better is it now with this discount?
