I’ve tested my fair share of gaming monitors, from massive ultrawide panels to smaller esports-focused displays. On paper, the Alienware 27 Gaming Monitor AW2725DM appears to be a fairly standard 27-inch QHD display, but in practice, it manages to pull together a feature set that offers something for practically everyone.
When I worked in a home electronics retail store, one of the biggest frustrations customers had came from wireless routers and range extenders; the biggest complaint was that they could be an absolute nightmare to set up. With the ASUS Router App, managing your home network becomes both easy and
At 9:15 am on the 26th of June, I was buckled into a Boeing 737-800, coffee in hand, and heading to Sydney for a one-on-one sneak peek at Samsung’s 2025 lineup. I got an early look at some incredible gear, but tucked away in a private room was a lone
After reading Sammy’s review of the Alienware 34″ 240Hz QD-OLED (AW3425DW) Gaming Monitor, I was curious to check one out for myself.

When it comes to monitors, I usually lean towards something a bit larger, and I’ve been rocking a dual 27-inch setup for a while now, but every so often, a smaller screen surprises me. That’s exactly what happened with the Alienware AW2525HM gaming monitor, a 25-inch gaming monitor that doesn’t
The Alienware Area-51 Gaming Desktop (2025) is a jaw-dropping showcase of what happens when Intel’s Ultra 9 CPU meets NVIDIA’s RTX 5090. From melting through Cyberpunk 2077 at 4K to serving up Diablo IV frames in the hundreds, this rig is pure overkill in the best possible way. We put it through its paces—here’s why it scored a rock-solid 9/10 in our review.
Gaming laptops have come a long way since I received my first back in the early 2010s, and Alienware have appeared on my radar ever since. Available in three different builds, the Alienware Aurora 16 Gaming Laptop offers something for every price point. We received the mid-range version of the
