Alienware M16 r2 vs X16 r2 Comparison - Which is the best 16" Alienware in 2024?

[@SecretRaccoon]

I'm the target customer for the m16 and i just got one on prime day sales for $1200. Loving it. I needed a work laptop with a reliable build quality that i can trust for a few years and reliable battery life. I want to do a little gaming when I'm not working, or taking care of my kid. This let's me tone down the flash if I'm emailing from a coffee shop. but in the evening i can launch steam and play some games for an hour or 2 a couple times a week.

[@round-1228]

Planning to get it this month how’s the gaming experience??

[@SecretRaccoon]

@round-1228 I've been playing BO6 on it the past 2 weeks and it performs great. I upgraded the memory to 32gb from 16. with the game running diagnostics tells me it's using 20+ so I think that was a worthwhile upgrade

[@skepticalmechanic]

@@round-1228 mine works great! I have the 4070 and also up graded the ram to 32gb and put a 4tb ssd in…

[@kurosagi001]

I'll be running my X16 R1 4080 to the ground before I look at a new laptop or go back to a full desktop. I've got it running at a comfortable temps at 75-80c peak with maxed UV allowed in bios, capping the CPU at 4ghz with the CPU and GPU capped at the default nvidia boost clock with UV running comfortably at 65-70c. Paired with a IET 500 cooling pad.

[@MashITTech]

I would recommend everyone buy an x16 r1 over an r2 if they want an x16 as the core ultra are actually a downgrade on a gaming laptop.

[@pipebomber04]

Llano laptop coolers are unbelievable. Couldnt believe laptop coolers actually work. Minus 10 to 20 deg celsius on your cpu!

[@johnnylongvo]

thank you so much for all the comparisons. just bought the m16 r2 and should be coming Friday. x16 sold out yesterday on Dell’s special sale so it wasn’t meant to be

[@MashITTech]

Glad to be able to help and hope you enjoy the m16 :)

[@Dr.D00p]

I'm convinced Alienware are cheaping out on their substandard screens because they're just assuming their customers are running them as desktop replacements, hooked upto expensive high end monitors most of the time.

[@MashITTech]

that makes sense, but at least offer a better/brighter option as an upgrade for users who demand a bright screen like all Dells competitors are offering! Grrr dell drive me insane 😂

[@FeedYourGreed]

That’s probably unfortunately true. It’s exactly how I run mine.

[@private-nobody6667]

I've been running my laptops that way for years; the only time I rely on the screen is when I travel, that's when I appreciate a superior screen.

[@neubauerjoseph]

@@MashITTechI have confirmed it by talking to dell sales rep who told me that’s why they have good monitors and also they have upgraded their monitor apps so now you can close the laptop and used it like a desktop . Look at some of the photos they have online or their website

@@MashITTech Do you plan on reviewing the Razer Blade lineup for the 2024 Model Year?

[@jetSCP]

It's been over a year since I've been using my x15 and I love it, although I do have some of my complaints. Normally, if I was buying, I like the top teir when it comes to gaming, but I actually think the M16 r2 looks really nice, especially the border lit track pad. The thin and light design style I like better than my old m15 R3, which was way to bulky and jagged. The new ones are modernized and fresh, and they have improved from the performance issues from the entry level x15 laptops.

[@WhiskyCardinalWes]

Half way through this video my wife walked by. She told me I shouldn't be watching you, you are a bad influence and that the monthly allotment for toys has been spent! I only had the weak reply of, "He has all the cool toys!" I'm seriously thinking about the X16. I don't need it, but I do so want it!

[@ajx8083]

Awesome, Thank you for your time David 👍

[@MashITTech]

Hope you enjoy it :)

[@metaspherz]

Thank you for the detailed comparison. I think I made the correct decision... I upgraded from a 10-year-old 18" Intel i7 MSI gaming laptop to the M16 r2 with an RTX 4060, Intel Core Ultra 9 - 185H, 32GB RAM, which was discounted to $1499. It would've been + $300 for the RTX 4070, but I won't be gaming on it anyway (or very lightly). It's for my music production and A.I. Artwork and animations for my music creation when traveling, away from my music studio. As a side note, I already own the Aurora R16 desktop with the RTX4080, Intel Core i9-14900KF, 4TB m.2 SSD, and 64GB for my gaming and music production. I upgraded the m.2 SSD and the RAM after purchase. Now, I mentioned this because, I traded in my two-year-old Aurora R13, RTX3080, 16GB, 1 TB m.2 SSD for a whopping $966. The final cost with tax for the M16 r2 was an affordable $660. I am very happy with the transaction! The trade-in value of Alienware used PCs should be considered when people decide which brand to buy. Especially for those who sell their old PC to help offset the new purchase.

[@RLDRemix]

Hey please let me know if I should go with the RTX 4060 or 4070 for the same model m16 R2. Also, how is the laptop so far? Battery life and others ?

[@karankothari2003]

@@RLDRemixhi i have the same specs as him above but with the 4070. Battery life for a gaming laptop is pretty good, albiet not as good as some other non gaming laptops, i get easily 5 hours on basic usage. The laptop otherwise is fantastic, i would get the 4070 rather than the 4060 as its a massive jump in performance.

[@MuniaFerdoushi]

How do you feel about the screen on R2?

[@CheapSushi]

I know it's such a minor detail but the fact that the x16 R2 doesn't have the Alien head power button on the keyboard bothers the heck out of me and on the M16 R2, it's so strange they didn't add the ethernet port to the rear, which would be much more logical and the side port would be another USB instead. But overall, I love these Alienware offerings.

[@blood.mirror]

Another excellent comparison. Thanks. 😊 I've always disliked the Alienware laptop monitor style with the raised "shelf" in the back because of the odd gaps at the bottom of the display corners. So I'm glad to see the M16 R2 with a more traditional display configuration.

[@TechnicolorTube]

The m16 is very compelling for the mid-low end. After sales it will most likely be very well priced. Unfortunate that Alienware is going another year with dim lower quality screens in their laptop line-up. It's possible the Meteor Lake chips are harder to cool, than Raptor Lake, as they are a on a smaller process node and thus a denser design. Or the first couple batches just have a bad paste job. Top notch video.

[@AlanHayabusaTMH]

I just bought this M16 and as user of the previous model of the other laptop… one of my big issues with it is having to reach to the back for everything. And it’s quite a burden to move around, just to bring that laptop to travel with me for work had to visit like 10 Samsonite stores to find a backpack to fit it alongside the charger. BTW yes the light on the back is cool but you never ever see it. And collects dust AF. 😂 So it was a no brainer for me to pick the M16 over the X16. With the M16 It was really easy to pick a MacBook PRO Thule case to protect and take it everywhere with me, the charger is quite slim and doesn’t get hot like the X model does. I love that it’s less heavy and for me the material feels really premium. Also loved the On/Off Button on the middle. The HDR looks great for videogames on the go and connecting the laptop to an 8K OLED TV to play videogames is now pretty easy with the additional USB C port. And transitions easily to match the TV resolution. Audio likewise… I use headphones always so… Not much of a difference for me. Loved your video It’s great to know I made a good choice… Didn’t knew I have available another port for an additional SSD. 🤩 I’ll try it soon for sure. I just installed 64GB DDR5 RAM on it and the games and 3D Software I use for work run freakin smoothly.

[@MashITTech]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your insights, seems it echoed mine :)

[@tnakirh]

Thanks for a thorough comparison, and advice. I would go for the M16. It does make a lot of sense, but having a mechanical keyboard, is very very important for me. I have been having to slug around an external mechanical with my laptop, and I done with that. Can't stand the membranes regardless of how well they are designed. Alienware could have given that option to their customer...

I love my M16 R2 - the battery life alone is why I went with this laptop. Great review btw.

[@Aberforth9412]

Is the m16 r2 better than the original m16? Because I have heard that the m16 stutters quite a lot and I'm wondering does the m16 R2 stutter? And does it do just fine against a bunch of other competitors? Great review by the way, you are helping me so much researching on Alienware!

[@donconklin9532]

Once again, great video! Wish you made this before I ordered my M16 R2 lol. I received it last week. I went with the Ultra 9, RTX 4070, 64MB Ram, 2GB HDD and threw on a 3 year pro warranty. Price with warranty was $3,700. I am a loyal Alienware customer, I've purchased 3 of their laptops just recently (personal use). But I am extremely annoyed, as are other loyal customers. Limiting the RAM on the X16 while limiting the Graphics capability on the M16 seems like they are playing games...forcing us to pick one over the other. If anything, the M series is supposed to be the powerhouse and the X series is supposed to look prettier (while having some limitations). If the X16 had the capability for 64MB RAM, I would have went with the X. I should note that I also have an X14 (maxed) that I bought almost 2 years ago, in lunar white. Dell offered me $1,150 for it but I love it and am not giving it back. Perhaps they will offer me a decent price for this M16 in 2 years as well, hopefully the screens and device configs are better. If not, I may just order my next laptop elsewhere. I didn't realize only the M16 has the illuminated Alienware head on the keyboard, that's nice to know. I really like it on mine. Also, I play alot of Diablo 4. It's not playable with the M16 R2 unplugged using the same configuration. My little X14 does a much better job on battery power using the rtx 3060 (32MBRam), which was the top config at the time.

[@MashITTech]

Good choice! I would too 🤣

[@mikerahl123]

Nice looking machines. Impressive audio on the X16. Probably the one thing that would prevent me from considering an alienware, though, is that 300 nit screen. I like a bright display and am often using the laptop's internal screen, rather than an external monitor, so I tend to lean more towards Asus, Lenovo or Razer. The competitor from Asus, thr Strix line, I think has a much brighter screen with Mini-LED options. It would be cool if Alienware incorporated that option at least on the higher end models.

[@MashITTech]

Well I keep moaning about it in all my Alienware videos in the hope Dell add more options as I know they watch my reviews! I will keep up the pressure 🤣 And this is also the reason I switched to razor last year, the screen is a deal breaker for me personally as I often take my laptop to clients sites and I cannot control the lighting so I need 500 nit

[@SouryaDP]

I think a bigger differentiation would have been made with respect to performance, if the x16 had went with the 14th gen core i series processors, rather than the core ultra series chips. The m series was meant to be the lower power, and portable solution, with its restricted 240W power brick, while the x16, with its 330W brick, had enough breathing space to go all out with the chipsets, like the m18 did. At least at the top spec configurations, this one small change would have given better justification for the premium that the x series could charge over the m series.

[@unionofslavstanrepublics2317]

Honestly I'm disappointed in Alienware this year. The Core Ultra 7/9 CPUs in the M16R2 are no match in performance to the R9/i9 HX CPUs in last year's model, theres less expansion options and it loses the option for RTX 4080/4090 GPUs. Alienware still not putting 500 nits IPS LCD screens at minimum on these higher end laptops, particularly the X16 just isn't good enough imo. This year's Legion Pro 7i has been upgraded a 100% DCI P3 coverage 1600P 500 nits screen over the 100% sRGB coverage panel of the previous model and its definitely well priced compared to these Alienwares so not a good look for Dell.

[@MashITTech]

Agreed! Last year was the first year I didn't keep an Alienware as my machine for years! Until they offer a 500nit screen I will stick with the razor blade

[@unionofslavstanrepublics2317]

@@MashITTech Definitely agree. 500 nits screen brightness is my minimum desired brightness level from a laptop screen, this year's M18R2 with up to a 4090 175W and 14900HX CPUs honestly looks like the best Alienware for power users but again I don't get Dell's obsession for 300 nits screens, irrespective of whether they're 100% DCI P3 coverage panels or not. The likes of this year's Scar 18 being upgraded to a miniLED screen really gives Dell no excuse not to follow suit particularly given these higher end laptops cost a pretty penny. The Blade 16 2024 has a OLED screen that's a bit brighter than the Alienware M16 or X16 too at about 400 nits.

[@donconklin9532]

True, but I'm loyal to Alienware. Also, I thought it was cool that Dell offered me $1,150 for my X14 I bought 2 years ago as a trade in, which is half the price I paid. Theres that.
