Alienware m16 R2: performance for life

Last year, her product launches were met with overwhelming praise and community suggestions to improve the m16. The main requests were to make a powerful notebook that could run the most demanding games and be discreet enough to travel with.

They challenged her engineers and designers to create a product that meets those requirements and adds new features. The redesigned Alienware m16 R2 gaming laptop prioritizes performance, flexibility, and portability while retaining her customers’ favorite features.

They had to make bold changes to achieve balance. Start with the most noticeable change. They did away with the thermal shelf to make notebook more portable. Doing so was difficult because it contained the components that kept the previous model cool.

Her engineers redesigned and optimized a new thermal solution for the m16 R2 by adapting her Cryo-tech cooling to be more efficient in a smaller package. This led to 43% more efficient airflow than the previous model, and while can’t reveal the alien technology behind these thermal gains, the m16 R2 won’t sweat when playing the latest games.

Size is another benefit, Removing the thermal shelf made the laptop 15% thinner than the previous generation. The new 16” notebook fits into a backpack and saves desk space for your gaming mouse, keyboard, and monitor with a 14% smaller Y dimension.

M16 R2 is smaller and has a larger palm rest and touchpad. How did they succeed? By placing a slim, sturdy 180-degree hinge on the notebook’s back. Putting the hinge where the thermal shelf was allowed us to raise the keyboard and expand the palm rest and touchpad. While people rarely use touchpads when gaming, a larger cursor control surface is a luxury when navigating Discord chats or browsing the web. RGB stadium loop lighting was moved from the back to accent the touchpad. You can now see the touchpad’s boundaries in the dark.

Design language emphasizes lighting, but her community wanted to tone it down. That’s why added a hotkey to hide the m16 R2 in its surroundings. Let introduce Stealth Mode. This handy new feature was inspired by customers who found lighting effects distracting in libraries, cafés, and classrooms. A single tap of the F2 shortcut key turns the keyboard backlighting white, turns off all AlienFX lighting zones, and switches performance mode to Quiet to reduce fan noise.

When gaming, tap the key again to disable Stealth Mode and take advantage of the m16 R2’s Intel Core Ultra H Series processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series mobile graphics to run the latest games at high frame rates. Need all frames for competitive gaming? DLSS 3.5 AI upscaling and NVIDIA Reflex latency reduction deliver faster frame rates, better image quality, and the lowest latency without increasing power.

Dolby Atmos enhances immersion.  The upgraded dual speakers of the m16 R2 give you realistic spatial sound for every footstep, explosion, and whisper.

Smooth gameplay is displayed on a QHD+, 240Hz, 16:10 display with sharp detail and accurate colors. Competitive gamers benefit from the high refresh rate for smooth, tear-free gameplay.

These are some of the m16 R2’s main upgrades:

• Eliminating the thermal shelf on the back makes the m16 R2 fit easily in your backpack for on-the-go travel.
• Equipped with Stealth Mode Hotkey for quick darkness without RGB lighting.
• Large 90Whr battery with NVIDIA Advanced Optimus for intelligent powershifting to optimize CPU-GPU power balance, so you don’t have to find an outlet. Express Charge 2.0 charges the m16 R2 to 80% in 35 minutes once plugged in.

Intel Core Ultra H Series processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series mobile GPUs provide enough power for modern games and AI workloads at high frame rates.
