Razer Blade 18 laptop review: Smaller than many 17-inch gaming laptops

140 W GeForce RTX 4070 graphics. The spacious 18-inch Blade 18 is marketed as a desktop replacement without the desktop form factor. You'll have to really value the large screen, however, as performance and features are otherwise almost indistinguishable from the smaller and more portable Blade 16.

Allen Ngo 👁, Published 02/21/2023 🇩🇪 🇷🇺 ...

Unveiled at CES 2023, the Blade 18 offers the biggest screen size yet for a Blade laptop while sporting that familiar Razer chassis design. The launch of the model coincides with the launch of the mobile 13th gen Intel Core series and the mobile Nvidia GeForce 40 Ada Lovelace series much like with the recent Blade 16.

Configurations range from the Core i9-13950HX CPU and 140 W GeForce RTX 4060 GPU up to the Core i9-13980HX and 175 W RTX 4090. All configurations otherwise ship with the same 16:10 QHD+ 240 Hz IPS panel. Our specific review unit is a middle configuration sporting the 140 W RTX 4070 retailing for about $3200 USD.

18-inch laptops are uncommon with the 6-year old MSI GT83 Titan being a notable example. Asus and Dell are expected to launch the ROG Strix Scar 18 and Alienware m18, respectively, to compete directly against the Razer Blade 18.

Case — Barely Larger Than The Blade 17

The Blade 18 may be a new screen size, but it holds no new surprises in terms of chassis design. The model looks and feels like a Blade 17 from top to bottom. The biggest visual difference relates to the much smaller chin bezel on the Blade 18 when compared to the Blade 17 for a higher screen-to-body ratio.

The larger 18-inch form factor thankfully doesn't impact the rigidity of the chassis. Both the base and lid are as solid as on the Blade 17 for strong MacBook Pro-like impressions. The hinges in particular hold up well despite the large screen, but their maximum angle is still well below the full 180 degrees. The weakest spot on the laptop is perhaps on the very center of the outer lid where the surface warps more easily from applied pressure.

Razer is proud to point out that the Blade 18 is only 18 percent larger in volume and 7 percent heavier than the 2022 Blade 17 despite their screen sizes differences. Thus, the new 18-inch model doesn't feel as bulky as one might initially expect. In fact, some 17.3-inch gaming laptops are larger or even heavier than the Blade 18 including the Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 SE or Alienware m17 R5.

Connectivity — Just The Usual

The new model inherits all the ports from the Blade 17 for a healthy selection of connectivity options. Even so, we would like to see a little more to better distinguish the Blade 18 from its smaller siblings. For example, an HDMI-in port would have added more versatility to the spacious 18-inch screen.

Keep in mind that only one of the two USB-C ports is compatible with Thunderbolt devices.

Communication

An Intel AX211 comes standard for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity whereas the Blade 17 ships with the Killer AX1690i in comparison. The Killer AX1690i is the gaming-specific derivative of the Intel AX211 and so users shouldn't see any significant performance differences between the two.

Webcam — Now with 5 MP

Razer has upgraded the webcam from 2 MP on the Blade 17 to 5 MP on the Blade 18. We fully expect the manufacturer to start updating its smaller Blade models with the same 5 MP sensor at some point in the near future. Images are sharper with the 5 MP sensor while colors haven't changed all that much. IR comes standard for Windows Hello support.

Strangely, there is no physical webcam privacy shutter even though the Blade 16 incorporates one. There is not even a digital kill switch or hotkey.

Maintenance

The bottom panel is secured by ten T5 Torx screws for easy servicing. Users have direct access to two M.2 2280 SSD slots, two SODIMM slots for up to 32 GB DDR5-5600 or 64 GB DDR5-5200, and the removable WLAN module. Most notably, the current Blade 18 design incorporates an additional fan directly underneath the clickpad similar to older Blade 17 designs.

Accessories and Warranty

There are no extras in the retail box. A one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies while the internal battery comes with a separate two-year warranty if purchased in the US.

Input Devices — Identical To The Blade 16

Keyboard and Touchpad

Both the keyboard and clickpad are the same as on the Blade 16 despite the screen size differences between the two models. Even the dimensions of the clickpad (17 x 9.7 cm) and keyboard have not changed and so our existing comments on the Blade 16 typing experience apply here on the Blade 18. It's too bad that Razer didn't utilize the extra surface area for larger arrow keys or a potential numpad.

Display — Very Spacious

The Blade 18 comes with no second panel option at launch likely because of limited supply. In fact, the 18.0-inch Asus ROG Strix Scar 18 will probably utilize the same AU Optronics B180QAN01.0 IPS panel as on the Blade 18. With that said, this is still a high quality panel with the usual features common on high-end gaming laptops including the fast 240 Hz native refresh rate, fast 3 ms response times, full DCI-P3 color coverage, 500-nit brightness, and factory calibration. Our independent measurements with an X-Rite colorimeter and oscilloscope have confirmed these claims.

Unfortunately, the display on our test unit would occasionally flicker between different brightness levels for seemingly no reason. The flickering is unrelated to pulse-width modulation as the panel does not utilize PWM for brightness control. This is likely a fault with the screen, but we cannot confirm yet if it is a software or hardware issue. Purportedly, some consumers who already purchased the Blade 18 have been experiencing similar flickering issues as well. This section will be updated once we have an official word from Razer.

* ... smaller is better

Average grayscale and color deltaE values are only 2.0 and 3.32 out of the box, respectively, as the panel comes pre-calibrated against the P3 standard. Attempting to calibrate the panel further ourselves would not improve the colors by a significant margin. Blue, however, appears to be represented more inaccurately than any other primary or secondary colors.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 3.8 ms rise
8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 4.2 ms fall
The screen shows fast response rates in our tests and should be suited for gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 18 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.1 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
4.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 2.1 ms rise
4.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 2.1 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 12 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17263 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is similar to the Blade 17 since their displays each target a 500-nit maximum. Shade is always recommended for optimum colors and to reduce glare as much as possible.

Viewing angles are wide as expected from an IPS panel. Colors and contrast shift only if viewing from extreme angles.

Performance — Intel Raptor Lake + Nvidia Ada Lovelace

Testing Conditions

We set our unit to Performance mode via Windows and the CPU and GPU to Boost and High, respectively, via the Razer Synapse software as shown below. It's recommended that users become familiar with Synapse as it is the hub for adjusting any RGB lighting effects, performance profiles, macros, and other auxiliary features. The software isn't always reliable, unfortunately, as it would sometimes become unresponsive or not launch at all if there is no Internet connectivity.

The Blade 18 does not support MUX or Advanced Optimus unlike on the Blade 16. Our unit would also not support G-Sync despite what Razer is advertising. We've reached out to Razer about the lack of G-Sync and will update this section when appropriate.

Processor

CPU performance is within just a few percentage points of the Blade 16 or GT77 each equipped with the same Core i9-13950HX processor. Thus, the CPU here does not appear to be suffering from any major throttling issues. Multi-thread performance is roughly 45 percent faster than the previous generation Core i9-12950HX to be on par with a stock desktop Core i9-12900K. The gen-to-gen performance leap is significant in this regard.

Our usual CineBench R15 xT loop test results are not included below as the scores are unusually low and unrepresentative of the performance of the processor. Running CineBench R15 activates both the CPU and dGPU and so the performance of the CPU can sometimes be power limited by the dGPU. This issue can be observed on a few other laptops as well. CineBench R23 is a pure CPU benchmark that doesn't activate the dGPU and so these results are provided below instead.
