Latest Razer Laptop Reviews
This modest update to the premium Razer Blade 15 ups the ante with a newer CPU and improved 1080p webcam. While the battery life falls short, its GeForce RTX graphics and high-refresh screen options deliver a top-end gaming experience.
The Blade 14 is an all-new gaming-laptop design for Razer, bringing the trademark premium build [and AMD CPU power!] to a size and component sweet spot between the Blade Stealth 13 and Blade 15.
The 2021 revamp of the Razer Blade 15, now equipped with Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs, is simply the peak of today's premium gaming laptops. Portable, powerful, and slick, it's an unmistakable object of envy.
The only non-gaming laptop in Razer's lineup, the Razer Book 13 is a sleek and compact machine that reaches the very top tier of ultraportables in terms of design, performance, and features.
The 2020 Razer Blade 15 Advanced Edition combines some of the most powerful laptop components available with a slick all-metal design that stands above the rest, though the top configurations are very pricey.
The updated Blade Stealth 13 is the best version yet of Razer's gaming ultraportable. A compact metal build, a gaming-ready GPU, and a robust feature set elevate it to the upper echelon of premium ultraportables.
Razer's stylish white Blade 15 Studio Edition turns the Blade 15 Advanced gaming laptop into a mobile workstation competitor with a 4K OLED screen, Quadro RTX graphics, and Nvidia Studio driver support. Sleek and all aluminum, it's as elegant as creative-pro notebooks get.
Combining the 13-inch Razer Blade Stealth with a gaming-ready GPU makes for a very appealing hybrid of sleek ultraportable and capable gaming laptop. There's nothing else quite like it on the market right now.
Razer's Blade 15 Advanced Model was always envy-inducing, and the OLED-screen version makes it even more so. It's pricey, even for a gaming laptop, but if you can afford it, you'll find it sleek, satisfying, and powerful.
Razer's top-shelf eGPU, the Core X Chroma, has customizable RGB lighting and a practical port hub. Like other Thunderbolt 3 eGPUs we've tested, however, expect a major dip in graphics-card performance versus the same card in a full desktop PC.
Razer's 2019 revision of the Blade Pro 17 pares away some of what set apart the last-gen model, but the trimmed-down design and ample pep make this luxe system appealing enough among 17-inch gaming laptops.
The 2019 Razer Blade 15 Advanced Model takes last year's slick, winning design and adds peppy, muscled-up Nvidia GeForce RTX graphics. It's our top recommendation in its class.
Razer's 2019 Blade Stealth ultraportable, a smart refinement of its excellent predecessor, packs a sharp [and sharp-edged] redesign, a new dedicated graphics option, and snappy performance with a strong supporting feature set.
The Blade 15 Base Model trims a few frills from Razer's flagship Blade, but it keeps most of its best aspects. Just make sure you need the slim design; you're giving up some gaming grunt to gain it.
The 2018 Razer Blade redefines the category it inspired: the super-slim, powerful gaming laptop. The best thin design in the business now packs a roomier 15.6-inch display and cutting-edge components.
The Razer Core X drops some of the high-end features of its Core V2 sibling, but keeps most of its external GPU functionality for $200 less. Setup can be a challenge, but it works with a range of laptops, including some MacBooks.
If you want to turn your ultraportable laptop into a powerful gaming rig, the Razer Core V2 external graphics enclosure is a well designed and accessible solution.
The refreshed Razer Blade Stealth is mostly the same as the previous model of this ultraportable laptop that we love, but now delivers a fresher, faster processor for $100 more.
Razer's less expensive take on the Blade Pro packs the premium build and many high-end features of its pricier sibling, but still costs more than the average GTX 1060 gaming laptop.
The gorgeous, well-built, all-metal Razer Blade Stealth, now with a slightly larger and still-brilliant screen, is one of the best premium ultraportable laptops, especially for less than $1,500.
