Anti-glare OLED: Perfect for gaming in any environment
Alienware extends the OLED technology from the CES 2025 series to the new 16-inch Alienware 16X Aurora and 16 Area-51 laptops. The anti-glare coating reduces reflections by 32%, reduces annoying fingerprints and enables gaming in bright environments without compromising on image quality.

- 620 nits peak brightness for vivid HDR content
- 120% DCI-P3 color gamut for realistic colors
- VESA HDR ClearMR 9000 certification to minimize ghosting
In addition, the integrated AI software ensures pixel protection and long-lasting use, while the robust housing with 15 kg lid test and 20,000 hinge cycles guarantees high stability. Alienware thus fulfills one of the most desired points of the community: OLED quality without annoying reflections.
