80% Razer Blade (2018) review
Source: Techradar Archive.org version
The 2018 Razer Blade is an incredibly slick and good-feeling laptop, but it’s held back by some flaws that are tough to ignore. Razer is clearly at the top of its game with the latest Blade, but the rest of the gaming laptop world is clearly catching up.

80% Razer Blade 15 (2018) review: An unlikely MacBook Pro alternative
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
Essentially by accident, Razer has created an exciting substitute for the usual mobile workstation fare. Though its graphics processor and hexa-core CPU were intended to run games, these components can be harnessed for productivity too – and for much less cash than a high-spec MacBook Pro.

80% Razer Blade review: An understated laptop with plenty of gaming grit
Source: Pocket Lint Archive.org version
The Razer Blade 15 is a fully capable laptop with a certain style that wouldn't look out of place in the office, while offering the power and punch to deliver superb gaming results on the go or at home. If cost doesn't put you off, this is certainly a gaming laptop to consider.

70% Razer Blade 15 Dual Storage Review: Too Much Compromise
Source: The Verge Archive.org version
Razer might have stripped away everything I enjoyed most about the original Blade 15, but they didn’t take away its ability to play games on high settings at desirable frame rates. I’d wait for another manufacturer to attempt what Razer hasn’t quite done here... and hopefully do it better.

80% Razer Blade 15 Review: The world's smallest 15-inch gaming laptop packs a punch
Source: PC World Archive.org version
Claiming to be the "smallest 15-inch gaming laptop," the redesigned Razer Blade 15 likely makes good on that promise by being pretty small and fairly light, while offering blistering gaming performance.

Razer Blade 15 Review: The world's smallest 15-inch gaming laptop packs a punch

While gaming laptops are typically all measured on gaming performance and nothing else, the Razer Blade 15's selling point is being the "smallest 15-inch gaming laptop" in town. On that point, we'd have to agree.

The Razer Blade 15 is the latest entry into Razer’s flagship line of gaming notebooks. It targets the same space as the stellar Gigabyte Aero 15, aiming to offer buyers a thin and light gaming laptop that doesn’t skimp on specs. The Razer Blade 15 masterfully balances performance and portability.

Razer shaves a bit off the price of a Razer Blade 15
Source: CNet Archive.org version
But if you want to splurge on the "classic" model, which is thinner, has better GPU and screen options, per-key lighting and a better battery, there's also a new version of that. The hardware is the same, but Razer is now offering the Blade 15 in a Mercury White color, which is a welcome break from all that black and green.

Those issues do get in the way of what is otherwise a premium, very well built machine. Gaming performance is excellent, too, but the reality is you will only be able to fit 3-4 games on the laptop at any one time, while those planning to run CPU-heavy tasks will also experience slow down.

90% Razer Blade 15 Review: Small, solid, strong
Source: Toptenreviews Archive.org version
The Razer Blade 15 delivers absolutely everything we want in a gaming laptop, in one of the best-designed bodies we’ve ever seen. The build quality is top-notch, and gaming performance matches. The downside, of course, is its price. The Blade 15 that’s for a GTX 1060 Max-Q GPU and a 60Hz screen. The GTX 1070 Max-Q models, like the one we tested here, with more expensive options if you want a larger SSD or a 4K panel.

I think the Razer Blade 2018 is only a few tweaks away from becoming the standout gaming laptop option on the market, so I have high hopes for the next generation. But right now it’s so close, yet so far from being the best gaming laptop and its competitors are just too strong to ignore.

It’s a great machine, though. Peerless, when it comes to the actual design itself. It’s a real pleasure to use the Blade Stealth, be it on a plane or just at home lounging on the couch. Durable enough to feel rugged and portable, but lightweight enough to make it worth carrying, I really love it.

80% Razer Blade 15 review: Looks and performance come with big compromises
Source: Techno Buffalo Archive.org version
Despite its compromises, my overall feelings for the Razer Blade 15 are positive. It’s not the perfect computer but it comes close. It checks off just about every box I have for a computer and does so in impressive fashion. There are some compromises, like the poor speakers, and I have my bones to pick about the 144Hz display not being available in 4K, but the overall quality of the computer makes up for it.

85% Razer Blade (2018) review: Looking sharper than ever before
Source: Hardware Zone Archive.org version
The 2018 Razer Blade is Razer's most refined laptop yet. It's not revolutionary, and lacks any particularly novel features such as a second screen, but that may just be what makes it so good. This seems especially significant, given that the very first Razer Blade that the company announced in 2012 featured a trackpad that doubled as a secondary display and 10 additional buttons with customizable icons.

Bottom line: performance purists who wish to extract every last ounce should look elsewhere, but if you're looking for a potent PC that's as pretty as it is powerful, Blade 15 is the smallest and sleekest gaming laptop in its class.

All the hardware does weigh a bit more, though. The new Razer Blade with the FHD screen will weigh about 4.56 pounds (vs. the older version's 4.10 pounds). The 4K touch version will push the weight up to 4.73 pounds (vs. the older Razer Blade's 4.25 pounds).

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q: Efficient high end graphics card for thin and light laptops based on the same GP104 chip as the normal GTX 1070 for laptops but at slower clock speeds. Offers a approx. 15% lower performance but much lower power consumption.

With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.

i7-8750H: On Coffee Lake architecture based processor for big and heavy laptops. Integrates six processor cores clocked at 2.2 - 4.1 GHz (4 GHz with 4 cores, 3.9 GHz with 6 cores) that support HyperThreading. Manufactured in an improved 14nm process (14nm++). » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

Razer: Razer USA Ltd. is a US hardware manufacturer founded in 1998. The focus is on gaming devices as well as accessories, traditionally computer mice and mouse pads. The products are often named after mythical creatures or animals. However, Razer laptops are also offered under the series name "Blade". Razer has also released a VOIP software called Razer Comms.

80.15%: This rating is slightly above average, there are somewhat more devices with worse ratings. However, clear purchase recommendations look different.
