The M11x is back in with revision three in red or black, the hinge has been fixed and the Ethernet port bumped up to gigabit.
It even picks up two USB 3. If you're ever so pedantic about performance, you can throw in a Killer NIC, too, to ensure your networking abilities are top notch.
It did come with the GeForce GT M though, which is the fastest graphics card configuration available for the M11x, and pleased us mightily. It is, otherwise, business as usual for the M11x — an On-board speakers aren't exactly the second coming of audio, but they are a darn sight better than what they deserve to be, considering the laptop size.
There are two disappointments with the 11x R3: the deeply set screen is nowhere as vibrant as it could be, and the mouse buttons are smooshy enough that you'll want to bring your own mouse for anything more than casual use. It's a testament to the progress of technology that this mid-range edition of the M11x R3 outperforms the high-end M11x R2. The Alienware M11x gets a design pass this year, but it'll need to slim down if it wants to stand out again in Opening up smoothly on a plastic hinge that protrudes from an otherwise flush back, the M11x interior is all black, with a very familiar Alienware LED-backlit multicolor keyboard and an edge-to-edge glossy The sturdy-feeling chassis and slightly compressed keyboard are much better than average, as is the comfortable, large touch pad.

While the M11x's Klipsch partnership is new as of , we already loved last year's M11x audio, so it's hard to note any improvements. The M11x still lacks an optical drive--that's an obvious decision made to enable this laptop to be so small, but we couldn't help noticing the M11x's conspicuously port-free stretch on its right side that looks about the same size as We'll let you draw your own conclusions.
While the ability to install games off a disc without having to plug in a USB-connected external optical drive would be nice, modern gamers using Steam preinstalled on the laptop or other downloaded software probably never touch discs most of the time anyway.
Still, it's a lacking feature that's a tiny bit harder to forgive this year considering the M11x's size. If it were thinner and lighter, we wouldn't even be asking this question. Under the hood, the new Alienware M11x R3 has changed quite a bit from last year.
All non-SSD hard drives are rpm. The Core iM is a low-voltage processor that we last saw in the inch Samsung Series 9 laptop. Performance is significantly improved from last year's Core i7 ULV Alienware M11x: it's still not a full-voltage laptop, but like the Samsung Series 9, you can perform most critical everyday tasks without significant compromise. The graphics on the M11x R3 are also nicely boosted.
