Alienware的第一款超薄笔记本电脑继承了Alienware 15 R4的精神，同时推动该系列向轻薄游戏本领域迈进。当然，在使用更小的设计时必须做出一些牺牲，但总的来说，它是成功的，睿频性能和机身刚性方面尤为出色。

Display Response Times

ℹ
Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
   ↔    Response Time Black to White
12 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 6.8 ms rise
↘ 5.2 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 30 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (20.5 ms).
   ↔    Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
18 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 9.2 ms rise
↘ 8.8 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 30 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (32.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ
To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8350 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

Alienware笔记本电脑传统上会比竞争对手更大，更坚固，更丰富多彩。这使得Alienware m15可能成为一个非常具有挑战性的设计理念，因为它必须平衡所有上述因素，同时看起来像Razer Blade 15或MSI GS65一样轻薄。确实，新机身小于Alienware 15 R4，而在接口选择，RGB照明，铰链刚性，存储托架和电池容量都有小幅削减，但明显更轻的重量可能非常值得特殊用户群体。事实上，它甚至提供了一些更大的替代品所没有的功能，包括更长的续航时间和小键盘。

将Alienware m15和GS65，Blade 15，Aero 15x，Zephyrus GX531或Predator Triton 700相比较会更加公平。该设备比许多超薄替代品更厚更重，但它也比大多数更加坚固，具有更长的续航时间和更多的内部存储选项。最令人惊喜的可能是其卓越的CPU睿频时间，m15可以提供比其他配备i7-8750H处理器的轻薄本更强的CPU性能。

但有一些缺点阻止了m15成为超薄游戏本的佼佼者。除了稍微厚一些的外形，缺乏按键RGB照明之外，按键反馈，点击反馈，风扇噪音和扬声器质量都没有什么特别的。在外观方面，一些用户可能会被有光泽的边框，易于沾染指纹的掌托或难以触及的后接口劝退。尽管如此，任何考虑Alienware 15 R4或超其他超薄游戏本的用户都应该考虑一下Alienware m15，因为它提供了其竞品所没有的一些优势。

“Alienware m15是那些想要超薄设计而又不牺牲机身刚性的游戏玩家的心头好。考虑到其小巧的机身尺寸，其超长睿频时间和长续航在竞争中具有令人意想不到的优势。”
