Best Buy is offering an incredible deal on a high-performance Alienware laptop this weekend only. For Friday and Saturday, snag the Alienware m16 R2 RTX 4070 gaming laptop for just $1,374.99 with free shipping—a massive $500 savings compared to Dell's price. The m16 R2 is Alienware's most popular gaming laptop, and for good reason: exceptional build quality, top-tier gaming performance, and a competitive price. The "R2," released in 2024, is 14% lighter and more compact than its predecessor without sacrificing performance.

Alienware m16 R2 16" QHD+ Intel Core Ultra 7 155H RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop with 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD
$1,899.99 $1,374.99 at Best Buy (28% off)
This laptop boasts a stunning 16" 2560x1600 QHD+ display, a powerful Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor (a power-efficient Meteor Lake CPU with a 4.8GHz max turbo frequency and 16 cores), a GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a speedy 1TB NVMe SSD. While Best Buy offers a Core Ultra 9 model for $300 more, most gamers will find the 7 155H perfectly adequate, as GPU performance typically limits gaming at this level, not the CPU.
The 2560x1600 resolution demands significant GPU power for smooth gameplay, and this laptop delivers. Alienware's m16 series is known for its unthrottled GPUs, and this RTX 4070 with its 115W (140W with Dynamic Boost) TGP is more than capable of handling most games at 60fps or higher at 1600p, especially with DLSS 3.0 support.
As an authorized Dell retailer, Best Buy provides the same one-year warranty as purchasing directly from Dell. This laptop is currently in stock with delivery within a week.
