QuickTouch System Control Pad — Run your fingers above the keyboard on your M15x and you won’t feel a thing. Your laptop, however, will.

Illuminated by the dramatic AlienFX^® lighting control system, QuickTouch renders mechanical buttons and control knobs obsolete.

Webcam — The 2.0MP webcam and digital microphone array let you broadcast across the web, while wireless capabilities keep you up and running anytime, anywhere.

Your Command Center

Alienware Command Center provides intuitive, user-friendly access to exclusive applications and controls, including AlienFX^® lighting effects software and the AlienFusion power management system. Updates and new releases download directly into Command Center, creating a constantly evolving tool for modifying and personalising your M15x.
