Dell Alienware M11x Review, Specs and Price

Dell Alienware M11X


I rarely find myself awestruck by the announcement of a new notebook, but the Dell Alienware M11x left me amazed and virtually speechless from day one. Never before has any laptop manufacturer delivered an ultraportable notebook that can play most modern PC games. The Dell Alienware M11x allows you to enjoy these recent 3D games at perfectly playable frame rates ... with a laptop that's small enough to fit on a tiny airline tray table and still leave enough room for a beverage and a bag of peanuts.

Dell Alienware M11x gathered lots of interest as an answer to this problem when it was first aired in Las Vegas at CES in January, where its small stature and gaming prowess began to gain column inches left, right and centre. Now it's finally here on the shelves, or at least can be ordered on the Dell website. 

The arrival of the Dell Alienware M11x is something akin to the buildup of a "perfect storm" in the world of laptops. Dell Alienware M11x engineers admit that they've secretly been working on developing an affordable ultraportable gaming notebook for more than four years, but it's taken all that time for the technology to catch up with the imaginations of the team at Alienware. The Dell Alienware M11x isn't as small as a standard netbook, or as mighty in size as a notebook, it's somewhere in-between the two. With the lid closed the M11x is 32.7mm thick and 215mm long by 287mm wide with a weight of 1.99kg. As a comparison the Asus Eee PC 1101HA netbook with a similar 11.6-inch display, is 286mm x 196mm x 35.5mm and weighs 1.4kg. It's almost as if the Dell Alienware M11x is the next evolution of the netbook, crossed with a gaming notebook.
