Alienware is bringing a breath of fresh air to the gaming world: the Dell subsidiary is targeting demanding but price-conscious gamers with two new monitors. The AW2725D with QD-OLED technology and the AW2525HM with ultra-high refresh rate are now available – and each offer impressive specifications in their segment. The new models are aimed at both immersion fans and competitive eSports enthusiasts. With innovative technology, futuristic design and fair prices, Alienware aims to cover the needs of a wide range of gaming types.
Highlights:
- The AW2725D combines QHD resolution with QD OLED and 280 Hz for maximum immersion.
- The AW2525HM scores with 320 Hz and an IPS panel for fast reactions without ghosting.
- Both monitors are compatible with G-SYNC, FreeSync and VESA AdaptiveSync.
- Prices start at 249 euros – a strong entry into the high-end gaming world.
QD OLED meets 280 Hz: The AW2725D in detail
With the AW2725D, Alienware is launching a real highlight for demanding gamers. The 27-inch monitor uses a QD OLED panel with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels (QHD), which enables particularly sharp and high-contrast images. The VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 technology ensures deep blacks and impressive brightness gradations – perfect for cinematic games, visually opulent worlds and atmospheric lighting effects.
But the monitor is not only visually impressive: the refresh rate of 280 Hz in combination with an extremely low GtG response time of 0.03 milliseconds guarantees a buttery smooth gaming experience – without any streaks or delays. This is particularly advantageous for fast games, such as racing games, third-person action or competitive multiplayer titles.
Certifications for NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and VESA AdaptiveSync ensure that the image output adapts dynamically to the GPU frame rate – regardless of which graphics card is used. This minimizes screen tearing and ensures a smooth display even with widely varying frame rates. Visually, the model draws on the new Alienware AW30 design language, which combines futuristic aesthetics with functional ergonomics.
The AW2525HM: Responsiveness for eSports beginners
Those who rely on fast, precise reactions – for example in shooters, MOBAs or battle royale games – will find what they are looking for in the AW2525HM. The monitor has a 24.5-inch FHD panel (1920 x 1080), which scores with a refresh rate of 320 Hz and a GtG response time of just 0.5 milliseconds.
This makes the model particularly suitable for ambitious eSports beginners who require maximum performance with minimal input lag. Thanks to the IPS panel, the AW2525HM also impresses with stable viewing angles and a true-to-life color display – a combination that is rare in this price range.
This model is also G-SYNC Compatible, FreeSync Premium certified and supports VESA AdaptiveSync, ensuring smooth image reproduction regardless of the hardware used.
The compact size of the monitor also allows for optimal placement on smaller desks. Especially for gamers with a limited budget, the AW2525HM is an attractive option for entering the world of high-frequency gaming without making major compromises.
Conclusion: High-end gaming at an entry-level price
Alienware hits a nerve with the new AW2725D and AW2525HM monitors: both models offer specialized features for different target groups – one for maximum immersion, the other for uncompromising response speed. The prices remain surprisingly down-to-earth: The AW2725D with QD-OLED is available now for €599.00, while the AW2525HM is the entry-level model into the world of 320 Hz monitors for just €249.00. An exciting offer for gamers who want quality – without breaking the bank.
