Reviews for the Alienware 16 Area-51, RTX 5080

90% This Premium Gaming Laptop Might Just Be My New Favorite
Source: How to Geek EN→zh-CN
In my opinion, the Alienware 16 Area-51 (2025) has very few faults. Those small flaws include the bulky, weighty build (which I really didn't mind!), the fan noise, the fairly dismal battery life, and the lack of an OLED display option. Those small things aside, the Area-51 outperformed most gaming laptops I've seen to date, which is why it's at the top of my list for the price range. If you're looking for beautiful graphics on a large display, two of the best gaming laptop CPUs and GPUs you can get, and enough power to eke out impressively high frame rates for resource-heavy games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, you won't want to look elsewhere. Still, this laptop won't be for everyone. Especially if you prefer a slimmer, less powerful option for travel purposes.

70% Alienware 16 Area-51 review: One weird gaming laptop
Source: XDA Developers EN→zh-CN
Despite some earned criticism, I can't help but love the Alienware 16 Area-51. It's not a perfect laptop by any means, with a disappointing display, so-so keyboard, and performance just a touch behind the competition. But it's also a laptop that swings big in a way few devices do, and it manages success in the process. This isn't the right laptop for all or even most buyers, but if you've been caught up in the allure of Alienware trying something different, you won't be disappointed with the 16 Area-51.

90% I tested Alienware's new Area-51 RTX 5080 gaming laptop — and it's out of this world

There’s no denying that the Alienware 16 Area-51 is a fantastic gaming laptop that delivers uncompromising RTX 50-series performance. On top of that, it’s also a beautiful-looking machine with elegant curves and tasty RGB lighting. Yes, it’s heavy and expensive, but it’s also freakin’ awesome! If you want a gaming laptop offering comparable performance but with an OLED panel, the Legion Go 7i Pro or HP Omen Max 16 are great, if expensive, alternatives. But if you like what I have to say about Alienware’s gaming notebook and can stomach its price, then you won’t go wrong with this purchase. The Alienware 16 Area-51 comes with my highest recommendation.

80% Alienware 16 Area-51 review: performance from another planet
Source: T3 EN→zh-CN
The Alienware 16 Area-51 is a sports car of a gaming laptop for gamers who want it all, with everything tweaked to maximum, and plenty of other things to fiddle with under the hood. For most people it's overkill that you won't need. But this otherworldly machine isn't about need, it's about want. And if you want the best-of-the-best in terms of power then it's an epic machine... if you can afford one, anyway.

90% The Alienware 16 Area-51 is one of the cheapest RTX 5080 gaming laptops — and it’s near-perfect
Source: Laptop Mag EN→zh-CN
The Alienware 16 Area-51 is a near-perfect gaming laptop, boasting incredible performance, a bright 16-inch display, a great keyboard, strong speakers, and a beautiful design. But its display can’t beat OLED, and we’ve seen much better battery life numbers elsewhere. A gaming laptop that supports both an OLED panel and significantly better battery life is the Razer Blade 16, although you’ll need to pay about $1,000 more to get it. I’ll pray to Cthulhu for an OLED variant of the Alienware 16 Area-51 in the future, although right now, this gaming laptop is easily one of the best we’ve seen this year, and its price point makes it all the more compelling.
