Alienware x16 R2 review – Not a Real Alienware but a Great Workstation
Source: Laptop Media English EN→zh-CN
Sorry, this is not a real Alienware. But let’s start with the positives. Alienware x16 R2 is a mind-blowingly thin laptop which is a rare find. Most of the build is made of metal and there is a soft rubberized finish on the palm rests which feels nice. The hinges seem stable and the overall chassis rigidness is on point. The optional Cherry keyboard is a good choice for gaming and the small illuminated glass touchpad is accurate. The 1600p IPS display transforms this laptop into a multipurpose workstation. The screen is ideal for gaming since it has a 240Hz refresh rate and fast pixel response times of 7 ms. This panel is a wet dream for content creators. It covers fully the DCI-P3 gamut and if you apply our “Design and Gaming” profile, it’ll enhance the color accuracy to an average dE result of just 0.6 which is a superb score.

79% Alienware X16 R2 Review: Not quite an upgrade
Source: Think Digit English EN→zh-CN
The presence of an NPU on-board makes the Alienware X16 R2 future-proof and capable of accelerating AI-related tasks. However, as far as gaming is concerned, an NPU brings nothing to table, at least right now. If anything, they’re slowing down raw CPU performance which is dropping gaming performance. We’ll let you decide whether or not that makes sense for a gaming laptop. Last year we saw the release of Dell’s new super sleek and slim Alienware X16 series with the launch of the Alienware X16 R1. For 2024, we’ve got the Alienware X16 R2, featuring Intel’s new Meteor Lake processors. In terms of externals, the Alienware X16 R2 looks identical to the R1, so it’s only the internals that have seen a change.

80% Alienware x16 R2 review
Source: Tom's Guide English EN→zh-CN
Dell's Alienware x16 R2 ($2,099 to start) is the archetypal gaming laptop, gobbling up cash and belching out frames per second. It's heavy. The battery life's not great. The fans on our review unit are as loud as the RGB lighting and at $3,199 (as configured) it's a heady investment to pour into mashing pixels together. But it's also cool (metaphorically), coupling readily customizable aesthetics with performant hardware in a sleek package that looks and feels fun. Between the honeycomb-grille patterns, extensive (excessive? never) RGB lighting and loud fans the machine screams "gamer," which isn't going to be to everyone's tastes.

70% Alienware x16 R2 Review
Source: PC Mag English EN→zh-CN
The Alienware x16 R2 costs a pretty penny, but it delivers what you want in this tier. However, you'll find a few even more powerful options, mostly for more money, though the Editors’ Choice Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 16 stands alone on the power-per-dollar front. However, the x16 R2 is more concerned with the overall package than value (and, dare we say, even performance). Among Alienware’s gaming laptops, the m16 R2 is a better solution for most shoppers, with a portable design and less of a price premium, while the x16 R2 aims for enthusiasts. If you want the absolute best performance, you can do a bit better than this system, but we can't deny its sleek marriage of style, portability, and power to anyone with the cash to burn.

80% Alienware x16 R2 review: High-end gaming at a premium price
Source: PC World English EN→zh-CN
The Alienware x16 R2 is a polished 16-inch gaming laptop with a good-lucking design, a nice all-metal chassis with great build quality, lots of customizable LEDs, and a collection of ports smartly placed on the back of the laptop. The mechanical keyboard on our review model felt great, too. It’s also very customizable with a wide range of different CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage options, and the configuration of our review model delivered great performance with excellent cooling. There are a few weak points: You’ll find brighter displays elsewhere, and the lack of HDR support within games does feel like a shame at this high price point. Neither are deal-breakers, but they’d be nice to have upgrades on a premium gaming laptop.

80% Alienware x16 R2 review: A gaming champion with a few gaps in its armor
Source: Laptop Mag English EN→zh-CN
Alienware pumps out champions, and most of the time those champions cost thousands of dollars. The Apple-esque tax aside, the Alienware x16 R2 shows its worth with incredible performance, a clicky keyboard, long battery life, and stable cooling. However, the price gives me pause when I see a display that resembles one on a machine that costs roughly $1,800 less. No, seriously, you can get the Legion 5 Pro for under $1,400 and it features a nearly identical display (165Hz instead of 240Hz). It’s slightly dimmer but more colorful. One of the most important parts of a gaming laptop is the display, so it's sad to see that the Alienware couldn't impress with the one it offers.

88.4% Alienware x16 R2 笔记本电脑评测:比 x16 R1 更进一步 | Notebookcheck
最新的 Alienware x16 R2 配备了新的集成式 NPU,用于 Windows AI 加速,但遗憾的是,这是以游戏性能为代价的。用户可能还是会因此考虑 2023 年的 Alienware x16 R1。

抱歉,这不是一台真正的 Alienware。但我们还是从正面说起吧。Alienware x16 R2 是一款超薄的笔记本电脑,这一点非常难得。机身大部分由金属制成,掌托上有一层柔软的橡胶涂层,手感很好。铰链看起来很稳定,机箱整体刚性也很好。可选的 Cherry 键盘是游戏的不错选择,小巧的发光玻璃触摸板也很精确。1600p IPS 显示屏让这款笔记本电脑变成了多功能工作站。屏幕刷新率为 240Hz,像素响应时间仅为 7 毫秒,因此非常适合游戏。该面板是内容创作者的梦想。它完全覆盖了 DCI-P3 色域,如果应用我们的 “设计和游戏 “配置文件,色彩准确度将提高到平均 0.6,这是一个极好的分数。酷睿至尊 9 185H 的 P 和 E 核心频率在短负载情况下可维持在 ~ 4.00 GHz / 3.29 GHz,在长负载情况下可维持在 3.24 GHz / 3.29 GHz。没错,这就是这款笔记本适合工作的原因–3D 渲染、压缩、解压缩、照片编辑,你说得出来。Alienware x16 R2 是一款出色的工作站!负载下的舒适度取决于电源预设值。安静 “模式很不错–图形处理器能承受 118W 的功率,风扇几乎没有噪音,整体性能也可以接受。另一方面,”Overdrive “预设值会立即使风扇转速达到最高,噪音也非常大。性能 “模式适合游戏或工作。噪音一般,CPU 时钟很高。尽管采用了蒸汽腔冷却,但 GeForce RTX 4080 的 GPU 内存温度始终高达 110°C(使用 “静音 “预设除外)。这就是为什么如果使用 “高性能 “模式,平均 TGP 值仅为 130W。这太糟糕了,因为我们很想看看超频的流星湖芯片(就像这里的芯片)是否足够强大,能够处理 RTX 4080 并充分展现 GPU 的潜力。不过,如果你的钱包足够宽裕,又需要一台轻薄的高端笔记本电脑来工作,Alienware x16 R2 可以凭借其出色的制造质量、独特的设计、色彩精准的显示屏、舒适的输入设备以及完全位于笔记本电脑后部的现代化端口选择,让你大开眼界。只是不要买来玩游戏。

75% Dell Alienware X16 R2 Review: Intel Core Ultra 9 For The Enthusiasts
Source: 91mobiles English EN→zh-CN
This brings us to the main question: Who is the Dell Alienware X16 R2 for, and is it worth it? Well, if you look at it as purely a gaming laptop, there are clearly better options available that offer much more performance with a handful of savings. However, Alienware’s philosophy is a bit different. The uber-classy design coupled with RGB flair, mechanical keyboard, and a satisfactory flagship performance should cater to enthusiasts who not only want to enjoy their gaming laptop but also want to flaunt it. Additionally, the Core Ultra processors are more stable compared to the HX processors, and the integrated NPU means AI-related tasks will perform better on this laptop compared to its counterparts.
