Perhaps a gaming laptop isn't the right laptop for you.
125W + 25W, if I'm not mistaken.
So, full wattage.
Absolutely atrocious If you keep it with the stock install (lots of ghost processes eating the battery) . Less than 2h.
After fresh install and not installing any Alienware crap. It was slightly better

Just got the ASUS M16 with RTX 3070 TI as well (opened box) from BB but this one is a couple of hundred cheaper so going to order this one and compare. Will return one of them. THanks OP.

Does anyone know what is the GPU wattage?

Thanks

Wrong specs, this is the one with 5000 series Ryzen 7, not 6000.
