Other benefits to this display include excellent viewing angles, thanks to the nature of IPS panels and the close proximity of the display to the protective glass. The end result is that games, movies, images and text all look great on the Alienware 15's 4K display. Black levels are good, though there is a small amount of backlight bleed at the top and bottom of the panel, while whites are near the ideal 6500K mark. You also have to deal with Windows' horrible display scaling, which hopefully will be fixed come the launch of Windows 10.Ĭolor quality from the IPS-class display is excellent, with good levels of vibrancy without being overly saturated, as well as near perfect color tone. One downside to having a 4K display is the significantly increased toll on performance, though this won't be as bad when you have a GTX 980M under the hood, and of course gaming at 1080p (with nice enough scaling) is always an option. You'll get a similar benefit when viewing photos and 4K video: more detail and better sharpness. Games that have high resolution textures look especially fantastic on this Ultra HD display, as the level of detail goes well above standard 1080p or 1440p displays. Most importantly for this type of laptop, you'll be gaming at 4K, which is wonderfully sharp without the need for high levels of anti-aliasing. Having such a high resolution display has many benefits. This is very impressive for any sort of display, rivalling the density we see regularly in smartphones and high-res tablets. The 15.6-inch display with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 equates to 8.3 million pixels in a 671 square cm area, or 282 pixels per inch. ![]() ![]() Starting with the resolution, there's nothing quite like viewing a relatively compact panel with so many pixels crammed in. Not only is it large, which is great for gaming and consuming media in general, but it's also of excellent quality in many areas. This display is easily one of the nicest I've seen on a laptop. For this review, Dell sent me a model with the Ultra HD display. Both displays are 15.6-inches in size, and come with anti-glare coatings. There are two display options for the Alienware 15: a 1080p IPS LCD rated at 300 nits of brightness without touch, and an Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) IPS LCD rated at 350 nits of brightness with touch. ![]()
