Alienware launches first affordable gaming laptop starting at $1,299

Alienware has launched its first affordable gaming laptop, the Alienware 15, starting at $1,299. This new model aims to bring the premium brand to a broader audience by incorporating a more understated design and a full numpad for productivity. While it utilizes some last-generation components like NVIDIA's RTX 4050 GPU and offers a 165Hz display, it also includes modern features such as a 16:10 aspect ratio and a good selection of ports. The laptop's main drawbacks are a mediocre 720p webcam and the lack of a microSD card reader. AI
