Stay unplugged longer with the new Alienware m15x Dell 7800mAh Li-ion 5200mAh title = "inspiron Laptop battery Dell> Dell Inspiron battery. This battery 10.8V Li-ion rechargeable battery can replace the original system or be used as a spare. Dell Computer Battery life (and recharge times) will vary depending on many factors including screen brightness, applications, features power management, battery conditioning and other customer preferences.
Alienware announced a compact high performance portable ago long. But despite already available in the U.S. for a while, only now finally coming to Europe. The Area-51 m15x Alienware laptop has the first manufacturer to offer a 15 "gaming notebook with a 8800 GTX card and Intel Core 2 Extreme processor. This is also the current maximum of what is possible in the covenant multimedia class. Compared with other models we tested Alienware so far, the Area-51 m15x looks very simple and unobtrusive (fujitsu battery), so the less time several LED lights do not work. The screen lid and base unit are kept in a plastic frame silver gray. We particularly liked the smooth labor of this part, which creates a compact portable printing.
The simple geometric shape and perfectly fits the color scheme. More details Highlights include firstly the two openings on the left and right of the keyboard, which contain the speakers, and secondly, the central screen hinge. However, the Area-51 m15x becomes the center of attention only after turning on the LED lighting. The LEDs are very effective due to its discreet design case (cheap FPCBP216 10.8V, 3-cell batteries, batteries for FUJITSU FPCBP216), especially if other light sources are dimmed.
You can adjust the lighting in the Area-51 m15x with the Alien Lightning FX software in the command center. Several different colors or separate areas are eligible for the effects of light. The portable lighting distinguishes different areas, as the light pipe through the screen as a small space that emits light, the illumination of the hot keys and the touch screen and keyboard. Our test model had a keyboard without lighting however.
Another interesting gadget to customize the m15x is the aluminum plate in the bottom of the notebook, in which up to 23 characters chosen by the soon to be owner (Fujitsu M2010 laptop batteries) are etched by laser. The text is translated in foreign and also added to a sheet that is placed on the touch panel.
Ah, yes, do not forget the well-known face on the screen alien cover, which is also illuminated. Begins to beat if the laptop is placed in standby mode, which is also called "breathing" of Apple. The Alienware m15x, unfortunately does so without problems so it seems most clear is that the throat.
Also had to clean the throat of a more detailed inspection of the case, what makes a compact and robust printing the first maturity of the design, but clearly disappointed in the actual test (cheap F310J 11.1V, 9 Cell Batteries DELL batteries F310J). Holding the book, lifting, or applying a little pressure, if results of squeaky noises that seem to be the norm with the m15x. Especially bad in this regard are the hinges of the screen and the screen.
Although the 12 mm screen is not exactly slim, seems to be very susceptible to any pressure or torsion. Only the opening and closing of the screen is apparently too much for the notebook and results in loud crack and squeak. Moreover, deformations and even changes color on the screen noticeable. (A32-F82 low to 11.1V, 11.25V, 6-cell batteries, batteries for ASUS A32-F82, brand new, 1 year warranty! We ship most countries)
The hinge is not made a good impression as well. Although resistance while adjusting the display is acceptable, noise it generates and the wobbling of the screen after you put in the desired position is clearly not. Whereas a compact notebook that can take everywhere, problems are more serious.
Especially the cracks while working with the shadow portable printing the m15x. The unique touch through plastic parts not to change this fact. The low quality is particularly difficult to understand if one takes into account the current price of the Alienware Area-51m15x in our settings 2,799 .- Euros. (Replacement Battery for ASUS A32-U6, 11.1 strain, 4400 mAh, 6 cell Li-ion Batteries)
The front and back of the notebook stay remote connections. In the front right side of the laptop is a card reader (7in1), followed by an ExpressCard slot (54 mm). Both slots are closed well formed by the fins. Rubberplugs or plastic dolls are therefore unnecessary.
Further back is a HDMI port, which allows digital transfer complete image and video data. After that comes a USB 2.0 and Firewire 1394b (9-pin) interface, which is a bit unusual for laptops. Completely the back is a Kensington lock.
The left side of the m15x is occupied by the power supply, LAN port, two USB 2.0 ports and audio connections (microphone, headphones). All ports are located on the left side rear half, which concentrates several cables and prevents annoying cable clutter. The Area-51 m15x is not only a team as large enough interface but also very good alignment of the available ports.
The multi DVD drive is located on the left side in the front. SmartBay slot may also be equipped with another optical drive, such as a Blu-Ray. Another possibility would be to put an extra hard drive or a battery SQU-724 into the slot of the m15x SmartBay.
Unlike other units, Optiarc AD-5540AD doesen't have a reject button on the unit. Instead, you can open with the key combination FN + F8.
The m15x also integrated communication modules. The gaming laptop offers module made by Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet for fast transfers over local networks and a wireless LAN network card Intel standard4965AGN. Bluetooth 2.0 module enables wireless communication with various additional devices.
Alienware offers only a Kensington lock security, but at least you can set the laptop to a table or other heavy objects at LAN parties, to prevent thieves from stealing your laptop.
Included in shipping of our test Alienware m15x was a small leather case containing instructions rather short, a recovery of thin-layer protection and CD (cheap UM09A75 11.1V, 6 Cell Battery 9 cells, batteries for ACER UM09A75) and Nero Essentials 7. Also included a mouse pad Alienware design made by Func, which proved very suitable for gaming in our tests (in combination with a Logitech MX510 mouse).
Alienware Area-51 m15x offers a standard keyboard without numeric keypad, which is not surprising for a 15.4-inch laptop. The lack of design experiments, 18 × 18 mm standard key entry and generous space and keys, make adjustments intuitive and unnecessary writing.
Typing, which offers a smooth motion and good strength, very nice, as a result. Another positive feature is the quiet typing. The keyboard was also solid, although pressure not cause deformation point much of the keyboard unit, which is especially useful when playing fast games that often lead to strong pressure on the keys individual in the heat of the moment. (Replacement Battery for ACER UM09A31, 11.10 strain, 7200 mAh, 9 cell Li-ion Batteries)
The individual keys appear a bit overwhelmed, because the edge of each key is color, light emitting illumination models with integrated keyboard (38 .- Euros extra).
Touch Screen is optically very well integrated into the look of the Alienware m15x. It is built in a uniform manner in the case of the surroundings and provides a continuous single button touch pad. The main weakness of the pad surface is smooth. Alienware includes two stickers with a rough surface with notepad that can be placed on the touch pad, in order to improve handling. Most users will probably prefer the rough surface, which leads to the question of why the keyboard was not equipped with that surface from the beginning. Compared to the original surface, the handling was definitely better after you put the label on the touch pad.
The key apparently unique tactile surface also produced to please the eye, and not be easy to use. The continuous button has a large dead area in the middle (about a third of the total width!) And you can only press correctly on the left and right (cheap al31-1005 10.8V, 11.25V, 6-cell batteries, batteries for ASUS al31-1005). We therefore recommend use an external mouse, it should be is not a real player anyway.
A touch panel on m15x Keyboard offers additional control the notebook. The term "touch" is in our opinion is not very accurate though, because the symbols require the finger to rest on them during quite a long time to react effectively.
Especially troublesome in this regard is the volume adjustment. A lot of patience is required to achieve the desired volume.
Alienware currently offers two different screens for the 15.4-inch models. They differ in the resolution of support and type of screen surface. The choice is between 1440 × 900 pixels, WXGA + with ClearView technology (glossy surface) and screen WUXGA 1920 x 1200 pixels with a matte surface and resolution high definition compatible. (ASUS Eee PC 1101HA Laptop batteries)
Our test sample was equipped with high-resolution WUXGA display (LPL1801) and added at once due to its non-reflective surface. Unfortunately, this is rare, as only portable media increasingly offer matte surfaces. For Therefore, it is impressive that Alienware was against the common trend, and offers high-end display with a good eye surface.
Fears that the matte screen may not be able to compete with the glossy screens on the brightness, color or contrast, quickly disappeared after a couple of tests. The WUXGA screen reached a very good maximum brightness in the central 191.3cd/m2 of the screen. The illumination of the panel is 87.6% well above average.
The minimum measured brightness (Black value) of the screen 0.37cd/m2. This, together with the maximum brightness of 191.3cd/m2, resulted in a maximum contrast of 517:1 good. Subjectively, the display is always strong, with good contrast. (F80-A32 flights 11.1V 6-cell batteries, batteries for ASUS A32-F80, brand new, 1 year warranty! Ship to most countries)
Rather atypical for a gaming notebook, but possible, however, is the outdoor use of the Alienware Area-51 m15x. The dark screen surface and high brightness of the screen allow outdoor use with proper image quality.
The faint WUXGA display provides sufficient stability towards viewing angle vertical and horizontal for a large enough area of work. The image does not change much, even if the horizontal viewing angle is very flat. Angle deviations optimum viewing in the vertical direction have a greater effect, however, and shadow of the screen moves quickly if the viewing angle becomes flatter. But this should not be a big problem in stationary use. (Cheap AS09C71 11.1V 6-cell batteries, batteries for gateway AS09C71

Praises Alienware Area-51 m15x to be the first 15 "notebook with GeForce 8800M GTX. This is correct, but it is very likely that other producers will follow soon. Clevo, for example, exhibited a 15.4 "model at the Cebit past, which is expected to be equipped with a Geforce 8800 graphics card. We look forward to a direct competitor to the m15x, but play in a separate class so far.
The hardware of the Area-51 m15x reads like a wish list to Santa Claus player: NVIDIA GeForce 8800M GTX with 512 MB memory GDDR3 video and Intel Core 2 Extreme processor at 2.8 GHz and 6 MB of L2 cache, are the fastest possible configuration of the m15x. This not only marks the components m15x main series, is also the maximum possible performance from 15.4 "notebooks. There notebook series is available that matches the performance the Area-51 m15x.
A first look at the impressive performance gives the brand in 3D tests. 15,805 points at points 05 and 3D Mark 9217 3D Mark 06, catapult Alienware laptop to the top. Even the former top dog in the ranking, the Dell XPS M1530, has to be content with second place behind the m15x.
This result is not very surprising, and a comparison with several multimedia portable all-seems almost useless. The Alienware Area-51 m15x is a high performance machine, which sacrifice all in favor of performance. This idea was also applied when selecting the hard disk: A Hitachi (HTS722020K9A300) with a speed of 7200r/min and a capacity of 200GB. The feature is of course outstanding performance. In the test HDTune achieved excellent transfer rates up to 70.5MB/sec and an exceptionally low access time of 15.2ms only. This result makes the hard disk of the best in its class.
The m15x uses two memory slots for RAM, which can store up to 4096 MB and compatible with dual channel mode. Our test model included two 1024MB PC5300 DDR2 memory modules. In addition, an Intel Turbo Cache module is available.
Apart from all the push for maximum performance, the m15x also has a very interesting feature: The user can switch between the GTX and GeForce 8800M an integrated Intel graphics chip (BinaryGFX) by simply pressing the key combination FN + F7 [title = "Lenovo laptop battery"> lenovo battery] laptop. Although this necessitates a system reboot, which gives all the advantages of an integrated graphics card, as temperatures significantly lower, and therefore quieter fans, and much lower power consumption
The performance convinced the benchmark test PCMark 2005 as well. The m15x moves with 7,669 points clear at the top of the multimedia class again. But that's not all. Performance even giants such as Dell XPS M1730 (still with the Merom processor) are beaten by the m15x in this test. The main reason is the powerful Intel Core 2 Extreme, which is fully utilized in this test.
This result is based on the Cinebench R10 benchmark test. The Alienware Area-51 m15x achieves better results in rendering and shading again. In fact, Alienware m15x professionally could also be used for graphics and compute-intensive applications, but the main strength will always be games.
Probably the most important advantage of the Alienware m15x is the performance to run today's games – at least this is what it says Alienware. We obviously take this announcement as a immediate invitation to test the performance of Crysis on the Alienware m15x.
The Area-51 m15x a good impression of their performance. With a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels and medium details, it gets about 45 frames per second (fps) at the point of reference. The increased resolution of the high level of detail allows the result of falling below 30 frames per second. By playing the first single player level with 1024 × 768 and high detail, was executed with 20 to 40 frames per second. The game can be played, but the frame had frequent falls.
The m15x also achieved good results in the test of time game performance World real strategy in conflict with medium details (DirectX9). An average of 47 fps with no problems even at the maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels.
DirectX10 change by contrast, puts even the well-equipped Alienware m15x under pressure. While acceptable manages 31 frames per second with a resolution of 1024 × 768 resolution, which drops to 19 fps in original resolution (1920 × 1200).
This result has changed in the practical test of a multiplayer game (2 vs. 2, map Sea), which was enough to play with 20-40 fps, despite DirectX10 and native resolution. But for LAN battles more opponents who would be a good idea to reduce level of resolution or detail.
A mandatory test candidate is, of course, also currently very popular multiplayer first person shooter Call of Duty 4 – Modern Warfare. The practical test of the first single player mission with a resolution of 1024 × 768, anti-aliasing turned off, the default configuration in others resulted in frame rates between 50 and 90 fps.
Increased resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels reduced frame rates slightly to 40-90 fps. But even with this configuration, the game can be played smoothly and looked great.
The Alienware Area-51 has also successfully passed the practical test Unreal Tournament 3. The frame rate observed (heat-ray map, the standard details – level 3) with a resolution of 1024 x 768 and a native resolution of 1920 x 1200, remained between 60-65 fps. Only increased the details to level 6 (the world and textures), the frame rate dropped a bit down to 40-60 fps. But the game is still playable without problems with frame rates.
Our displays the last test was Supreme Commander – Forged Alliance. In the practical test of time strategy game real we play a multiplayer game with four players with a resolution of 1024 x 768 and medium settings, and observed a frame rate of 25-30 fps. The game was even with maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels with 20-25 fps playable.
Note: Other forums discussion currently about a BIOS upgrade for m15x, m15x laptops since the first appearance in the U.S. apparently had problems with heat sensors, which caused low yield.
Our test sample already had vX30P3 Bios version, which should solve the problems and not noticed anything during the game tests. Just in case some users still have problems, Alienware offers another Bios update to version X32RC1. For more information and to download, click here.
Depending on how Area-51 m15x is executed, you have two completely different noise levels. In the office mode at low load can operate virtually silent. Two options to make this possible: or, the stealth mode, which reduces the performance of the m15x and can be activated by pressing a key on the keyboard or changing Geforce slow powerful integrated Intel graphics chip. These options significantly reduce the noise level during undemanding tasks like Web surfing or writing, a quiet 32.8dB (A), which is an excellent result.
This changes quickly quiet fan noise loud under load without any attempt to reduce yield 8800M GTX and activated. The noise level ranges m15x, depending on the game or application, of 43.3 dB (A) to a maximum of 50.6 dB (A) if both cores and work graphics card in the limit. Fan noise can be described as strong unpleasant at this time. But players will probably be able to ignore the fan screaming, taking into account the performance of laptop deals.
The surface temperature also reflects the performance of the Area-51 m15x. Although the top base stays with 43.4 ° C at reasonable levels, the situation appears different in the bottom around the central area, which heats up very hot 51.4 ° C. It is therefore important to always put the laptop on a solid flat surface to ensure proper air circulation, especially if the laptop is often under load.
The m15x has two speakers located on the left and right on the keyboard, producing a clear sound. Although he wanted to sound a little more and more serious music playback, sound quality is sufficient.
Although mobility is not as important for a gaming notebook as the Alienware m15x, it is actually able to use phones away from the plug, if only very demanding applications you use.
Important in this regard, apart from size and weight acceptable case is the Alienware m15x DELL battery life laptop. The m15x has an ace up its sleeve that helps a lot – the option switch to integrated graphics. The test of the battery as possible (try BatteryEater readers) shows the difference: while the notebook lasts only 138 minutes with activated Geforce 8800M GTX, despite having all the energy savings enabled (power-saving profile, silent mode on, shine minimum, WLAN and Bluetooth off), which runs 223 minutes with the same configuration after switching to integrated graphics.
Battery under load with dedicated graphics card (try BatteryEater classic) is just 77 minutes.
Is acceptable laptop "> laptop battery life to watch DVDs. The m15x has a duration of 124 minutes with integrated graphics, so it is able to display a full movie with an average length.
Even better is the result of the practical test WLAN (integrated graphics, saving energy The brightness level 6 of 7) with a battery life of 170 minutes.
Alienware makes the Area-51 m15x a major step forward in the gaming compact segment. Someone who is looking for high performance among the 15.4 "multimedia notebook will quickly notice a distinct lack of competition for the m15x.
The major weakness of the Area-51 m15x is the case of the laptop. Plastic parts do not transmit high-quality, or with respect to the feel of the surface and stability not to mention the constant creaking noises when handling the notebook.
While the m15x offers only a small number of ports, all you need a player available. Especially the alignment of the ports impressed during testing. So did the excellent keyboard, which is ready for a successful run of the game.
A strength of the Alienware Area-51 m15x is definitely the screen, which provides high resolution, good brightness and lighting, excellent contrast and matt surface, which prevents glare.
Not much more to say about performance. An increase in the 15.4 "class which currently only possible if a producer managed to put two GeForce 8800M GTX in a 15.4-inch laptop, which seems highly unlikely for several reasons (hp mini series laptop battery.) The m15x offers gaming performance so impressive, despite a reduction in levels of detail in DirectX 10 games may be necessary, if one wants to play in native resolution.
Another important point that speaks on behalf of the m15x is the low noise mode for office and Internet, because the notebook offers the possibility to change the dedicated graphics and integrated to significantly reduce noise. This helps, obviously doesen't high performance mode, which results in a notebook high notes when using demanding programs.
The integrated graphics chip also helps extend the battery life of the Area-51 m15x to acceptable levels making it possible for mobile use.
