The weighs is 7.07 pounds, which paradoxically makes it the lightest 15-inch Alienware notebook ever. An aluminum chassis coupled with "carbon-fiber filled materials" also lends the machine some sturdiness without packing on additional heft -- it's 1.3 inches thick, thinner than any of Alienware's previous 14- or 15-inch options.
Being an Alienware machine, you can expect plenty of lights: there are ten programmable lighting zones arrayed about the machine, so you can color coordinate to your heart's content. The machine also offers an optional 4K display, though even full-fledged gaming desktops have trouble pumping out playable frame rates at that resolution.
