But the Area-51m took a different approach. Most modern laptops have nearly all of their internal components sealed in place in an effort to cut down on size. One of the biggest draws of the Area-51m was the option for user-replaceable parts. Despite Alienware’s goals for future-proofed upgradable parts, the Area-51m has failed to live up to its potential. All of those upgrades will be limited to the new R2 model, though. It’s largely similar on the outside to the original Area-51m, but the specs are almost completely overhauled on the inside, with 10th Gen Intel processors, new Nvidia GPUs, faster RAM, and better display options.
Alienware has announced the second generation of its flagship Area-51m gaming laptop, the Area-51m R2.
