Battery life is strong
Too
Gorgeous design
Brilliant
Bright screen
Quiet while gaming
802.11ac WiFi
The new Razer Blade boasts the same beautifully thin design
But adds a sharp 3
200x1
800 touch display and advanced Nvidia graphics
Remarkable performance
Great looking laptop
Comfortable
Responsive keyboard
High quality display
High quality sound
One of the thinnest gaming PCs you'll ever see
Built beautifully
Fantastic high-resolution 3200x1800 touchscreen
Decent keyboard
Rubber stoppers on the bottom of the laptop are solid and stop the laptop from moving as you work and game
The editors didn't like
Keyboard gets uncomfortably hot
Whirring fans are audible
A lackluster low-resolution
Nontouch display doesn't fit the high-end design. The baseline 128GB SSD for $1
800 isn't sufficient for a gaming PC
You'd better pony up for the 256GB or 512GB model
Poor value
Unnecessary features
Runs extremely hot
Paltry storage options
The battery life is worse than last year's model's. Adding more SSD storage can turn this into a pricey laptop
Inconsistent cursor controls
Poor mouse button placement
No full HD resolution
Expensive
Trackpad is too shallow and feels clunky
Gets very toasty when in use
Screen washes out colour slightly
Battery is a bit hit and miss when you start to game
Portable, sexy design, Stunning, 3200 x 1800 display, Excellent overall and graphic performance, Comfortable keyboard
Expensive, Runs incredibly hot, Below-average battery life
The Razer Blade 14 is comfortably seated at the intersection of portability and power, offering excellent graphics and gaming performance with an ultra-high-res display in a slim, lightweight chassis....

Slim, ultraportable design. New Nvidia GeForce GTX 870M graphics card. Upgraded graphics. Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO) display with 3,200-by-1,800 resolution and touch capability.
Runs very hot. High-resolution display may actually hamper performance. Shorter battery life than previous model reduces portability
The newest Razer Blade ultraportable gaming laptop has a lot to love, but a higher price and some performance issues leave us recommending last year's model instead....

Still the best way to get gaming to go. Responsive touchscreen and touchpad. Impressive speaker quality. Upped resolution now supports 3200 x 1800 pixels
Dimmer screen is a letdown, as is the price hike. What, no page up/page down keys? One key's backlight died during testing

The new Razer Blade boasts the same beautifully thin design, but adds a sharp 3,200x1,800 touch display and advanced Nvidia graphics
The battery life is worse than last year's model's. Adding more SSD storage can turn this into a pricey laptop
Razer's newest gaming laptop trades ultralong battery life for a fantastic screen and even better graphics. It's a trade worth making: this is the best Razer gaming laptop, and the best thin gaming PC anywhere....

Fast and powerful, Excellent trackpad, Stellar battery life (for a gaming machine), Slim, compact and thoroughly attractive
Middling screen and audio quality, More expensive (and less powerful) than other machines
Razer's 14-inch Blade is its most powerful laptop to date, not to mention its most affordable. Strong internals, an attractive build and long battery life make it a solid option for gamers and non-gamers alike....
Almost perfect combination of performance and mobility, High build quality, Good battery runtimes, Low weight, Thin chassis
Only available in the US and Canada, Very bad display, Expensive
Another small drawback is the availability; the device is currently only available in the United States and Canada. Potential buyers from other parts of the world will have to import the notebook and use an appropriate power adaptor.Still, we really like...
Solid quality and design, Good keyboard and touchpad, Great gaming performance
Not user upgradeable, Limited port selection, Expensive
The Blade packs a remarkable amount of power into a package as svelte as they come. This 0.66" thin, 4.1 pound notebook can play modern games at higher settings. Other things we like about the Blade include the superb build quality, elegant design, goo...
