I have a love-hate relationship with the Razer Blade 14 laptop. It had major reliability issues in the past, but should I give them another chance since they have an AMD processor?

Dbrand has gotta be the best sponsor ever.
Unless you're RTU and doesn't understand their advertising and people and their fans get mad qhen they're not being roasted.
@@doomy_doomy2225 who's/what's RTU?
@@592Johno ReviewTechUSA
I’ve always been happy with dbrand but they raised their free shipping from after $30 to after $50 due to a person complaining on Twitter that they always have their pricing at like 90 cents or 95 cents to make us buy more for free shipping
It is to Linus what IFixit is to Jay 😉
Dbrand literally throwing money at him in the sponsor spot, lol
😂
Plot twist: those airpods _are_ his payment :D
@@theAessaya wouldn’t be that surprising, especially considering that’s literally thousands of dollar in AirPods.
I don't think you know what literally means.
Stop using literally figuratively
"Up to"
Marketing's way of making specs sound way better than they are without getting in legal trouble. 🙄
I hate the whole "up to" bullshit. It's like, no speed at all is in that range so what the hell are you even saying really. Broadband got a lot better about it (at least in my area) but I still remember years and years back when they'd advertise "up to 20 megabit" and I'd be lucky if I saw 2 to 4...
The best thing is when they say "Up to" in regards to specs and "Starting at" in regards to price. Basically "Look at this amazing laptop that can have up to [Amazing specs] that starts at just [low price]" and that low price is a config that give you like an i3 and 4gb of ram.
In the east "start at" with words so small you can't even see
it's in the word "marketing".. don't be surprised of what companies do. they want to fuck you in every legal way possible
well its also bc they would need to be constantly recalibrated
Does DBrand have a department dedicated to coming up with new things to mess with Linus?
Dbrand is a company dedicated to messing with Linus, their skins and other products are just a side gig

Nope, they just have skinned robots

God I hope so
I bought a 6 month old used Blade 14 in 2015 (i7, 16Gb, GTX970M, 4k screen) for about half its retail price. Daily drove it and gamed on it happily for 5 years. It has gone on business trips with me across the world. I just built a custom rig for myself this year and can't complete it due to a lack of GPUs. So my Blade is still pulling its weight. It still looks as good as the model Linus has in the video. Best laptop purchase I ever made.
Cool
Wish marketing wouldn't use "military grade". Most military gear blows.
And aerospace grade for that matter. Its regular aluminium ffs and the standards already caught up.
"Made by the lowest bidder and *barely* meets required specs!" doesn't sound as catchy though
People in marketing are scum.
Anyone who has served knows that. LOL.
As someone who worked in procurement for a military, I see it as "domestically produced and painted green, but somehow significantly more expensive and lower quality than civilian grade".
"This cooling system is pretty cool"
nice
"Noice"

Dbrand shows us how advertising should be done. They should be the golden standard
Them and Sam Riegel have top notch sponsor spots
Isn't dbrand a shady brand with lots of giveaways not completed , I still remember the one truckloads of iphones collab with unboxtherapy. ugh
@@freakenste I don't recall dBrand being part of the truckload giveaway. From everything I've seen dBrand is pretty good with giveaways. Really organized and easy to keep track of. Sure their whole shtick is acting like a-holes but I haven't seen any shady behavior.
@@BenRajan Just give it a Google search or search it up on TH-cam, you'll stumble across a few 4-5 years ago iPhone giveaway shown in a truck bed which was never fully given away.
@@freakenste it wasn’t a giveaway done with dbrand and also at no point in time Lew said he’d give out a truckload of iPhones, only a “few of them” (which he did) and it was super clear the truck was solely for clickbait purposes
Next Dbrand sponsorship: we hired a pro wrestler to beat the shit out of linus just to assert dominance, no talking points, we just don't like this guy.
Next Next Dbrand Sponsor: we blackmailed linus with his family until he begs for mercy.
What if i'd pay Razer 'UP TO' the price they are asking?
Nice
Should be the new rule. If their hardware can only deliver "up to" a certain spec, people should only pay "up to" a certain price.
@@odinsplaygrounds I absolutely agree, this should be international law
menace to society
They would deliver 'UP TO' one laptop.
We NEED a full review of this unit from you guys!
I'm glad that I didn't skip the Dbrand bit. I love it when Linus gets hurt.
Alright then.
huh
Man razer needs to start adding years to their product names
Luckily it's the first amd based one, so you can't go wrong
Yh they really need to do that
yea sure Razer Blade 14 21 sure doesn't sound confusing at all
@@nerd2544 Blade 14 21 sounds confusing but 2021 Blade 14 would not.
6:55 For me, microsoft already figured it out, by freezing my pc for a couple of seconds while loading that screen
Been watching you for years and still love your content. Love the fact you guys can give reviews i trust and a good chuckle. I am sure i'm not alone but when you dissasemble hardware gives me anxiety lol litarally biting my nails. Keep em comming mate!
Wan show on friday: "Somebody ran over my airpods in the parking lot"
Dbrand: Throws airpods at Linus
it’s not that Razer makes bad laptops, but their after sales service really scares me.
and most of their products will be broken after the warranty expires
Totally agree. They lied to me about the keyboard layout for the model sold in France before and after I placed my order. When I got it and asked for a replacement they told me they could not replace it by a QWERTY version so I asked for a full refund. Then a rep told me that they would cover the shipment, and later on another rep told I would be charged for the shipment. Their after sales sound like a bunch of random people / robots answering to emails with templates.
@@warmcupsoftea issue is even if it breaks within the warranty period, getting a replacement is a nightmare. Just getting in touch with some one is hard, let alone actually getting your replacement.
at least they have one, not like LG's phone department
This is the reason why I never bought a Razer laptop although I always wanted one. They look very nice but the quality is shit and customer service is nonexistent. The amount of horror stories and I’ve read and seen on TH-cam tells me those aren’t isolated cases. It wouldn’t be a problem so much if the laptops didn’t cost so much. Sorry but for that kind of money I need to be sure I’ll be taken care of in case of any problems.
Would love to purchase one but I've seen far too many complaints about longevity from Razer laptops
6:48 this is why MacOS user permission windows doesn't take full control and just opens but doesnt take your focuse away from what your doing.
Linus mentioned in WAN show that his Airpods were run over, I guess DBrand found out and sent him some new ones.
so he's not gonna use the sony's, as he suggested on short circuit?
@@bipbop3121 Nah. He said, the sony's get the touch activated when he moves in bed. Not a nice way to wake up: "ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLING: MEDIUM!!!"
Like Modding, Dbrand skins available for a particular product are an extra selling point.
4:32 it was 3 years ago just after Christmas break. I'm on the bus with two of my friends who had received blade stealths for Christmas. One of them opens their laptop and gasps. The screen had spontaneously shattered. Neither of them had the blade stealth (in working condition) by the end of the school year.
yea that just shows how crappy these laptops are so why pay a lot of money for something that is going to break as soon as you look at it the wrong way
What? Screens can't shatter without touching them 😭
@@SimonBauer7 idk man my razer blade has been going strong for over 3 years now and it hasn't had the easiest of lives.
@@hoennnoodle same, i run it very hot for a long time while gaming and it still works fine, albeit battery life has gone down after two years
@@hoennnoodle my razer blade barely made it to 2 and a half years before it became impractical to move it from my desk. and within the first year the cable for the camera and mic broke. the blade would be my ideal laptop minus the fact that its too damn fragile. typing this on my mid-2012 macbook pro still going strong.
Darn, do a fulll review of this!
I really like the interesting dbrand sponsors! I wish more companies could do things like this
"This colling system is pretty cool." Yeah I certainly hope so.
I love how Dbrands advertising strategy has just devolved into bullying Linus

It was when IIRC Asus crammed a crap load of super small fins into the same form factor fan and squeezed a bunch of ACTUAL additional cooling out of them
I was looking for a new laptop and this one was on my radar, so it was nice to see this video come out
is Linus daily Drivin an ROG Flow X13 ? neat!
huh
Razer could literally have a monochrome display and get in no false advertising legal trouble.
Once I had a Razer Blade Stealth, it was awesome, I fell in love with it, than the charger stop working, and than when the new charger came! It work for a week and started show a lot off issues, than I trade ir on a Surface Book and stay in Microsoft family till now, and end of the hystory.
Just finished watching a Linus documentary man ngl this may sound corny as you are just a tech youtuber but u have showed me doing what you love is the most important thing ever
Linus opening up the laptop without turning it off is a norm nowadays
Love how everyone on the back is having fun looking at him.
Usually TH-camrs of this magnitude don't have employees that see them as funny people
Wish I could have held out for this over the 2021 15” Blade Advanced I ended up getting. Any laptop with AMD was impossible to get back in April/May when I needed one. The 16GB ram limit on this is a killer though
bought my Razerblade 2016 model after seeing Linus give it rave reviews. Did not serve me well, had issues that exponentially grew until now where it doesn’t boot past the startup screen
I have the blade 14 with the 3070 and i can easily get around 10 hours of battery life not in windows power saving mode and with brightness around 5p percent. I can get even more when I turn that down and turn on power saving mode. It turns off the gpu when it's not needed and used the integrated graphics instead for some improved efficiency. Edit: The screen is amazing, colors are so vibrant and crisp and the 165 hertz is so great to have in games.
Have the same one and boy for me its the best laptop i ever had. Ive had some software synapse issues, their support is not great but its an enthusiasts laptop i think. And the screen is 😮
One thing I like about the Razer too is if maintained properly would keep a lot of its value for resale being that the design and build has been consistent over the years and would probably remain consistent.
I am really excited to see this review. I recently purchased the ROG G14 3060 variant, still R9 with 16GB DDR4 and a 1TB NVME drive, super slim and fast, but I was eyeballing the razer hard. The Razer just didn't have that wow factor to command the extra price. The g14 at 1449 USD is just so killer. It runs Control (with DLSS) with all RT effects at a very nice 70FPS. The 144hz display is great for Overwatch and other competitive shooters, and the R9 is just so insanely fast, and does anything I could ever want it to do for my daily driver machine for college and work. I found the Razer KB lacking severely, it felt almost mushy compared to the very crisp and tactile keys that are on the G14, although the Razer does win for having an enter key that doesnt have a dead zone, an unfortunate issue I have noticed on the G14. All in all. Spot on review, definitely nice to see this segment or ultraportable gaming laptops have legit competition these days
2:48
But Linus, size doesn't matter right? 😃
It doesn't right? 😕
How many of the ones you gave away a few years back are still functional?
I always loved how the msi ghost series looks
My 2013 14" Razer Blade is still alive and kicking to this day. Had to track down a battery on alibambi or w/e (actually three times since the first two from different venders were defective), but yeah, still serves as a nice content consumption / light gaming machine. It's been handed down to my brother, my parents, my cousin's kid, and then back to me. Thing is a trooper.
Is it super hot when working?
I just want them to release a Blade 14 with a 16:10 screen. Please Razer, everything else is so good.
And 32GB (ideally 64GB) RAM.
@@azurelas1 YESSSS!!!
they did this year 2023, and bigger nicer track pad
Linus: This cooling system though, this is pretty cool.
The cooling system: Yes, that’s why I’m here.
Honestly, I love how Linus is respectable and still a Meme. Its so refreshing to watch.
Would be nice with a follow up on daily drivers. Whats does the LTT staff daily drive 2021? Thx for the great videos over the channels!
I'd be interested to see real-world gaming benchmarks between the three graphics options with respect to thermals. I wonder if you actually get much more performance flat-out.
I guess VRAM is different and RTX cores so could make a difference for blender rendering on RTX cores for example. I don't see how it can differ much in gaming. Although we know that a 4-core CPU at 20W power can get more done than a single core at 20W power. So maybe more CUDA cores with lower clock is better than having fewer that boost higher. Especially since GPUs don't have the "single-thread-performance" problem xD
It would have been interesting to have it with all-AMD config to test the performance and efficiency of Smart Shift vs AMD+Nvidia combo.
I went with this instead of the newer Asus G14 because Nvidia cards just beat out AMD in blender, plus DLSS is really nice for flight simulator. So I’m glad it has an rtx3070. Sadly amd is a bit behind with those things.
THANK YOU for mentioning the stupid little arrow keys! I'm on my second replacement Blade Stealth (yeah, issues, like you said)... I started with the late 2019 model with the full-size arrow keys which I loved the keyboard on, and these squished up arrow keys on the later models have been driving me mad ever since I sent that one back. Every other review I've seen/read etc says the keyboard is better since they changed it, but aaaargh, I use the arrow keys literally all the time for all sorts of things and it's horrible... whereas I never had any issue with the size or position of the right shift key in the old layout :/
6:40 that switch from Glorious Model O Wireless to a Razer mouse
I love how near the end of the video Linus sounds so defeated. He's just been through this so many times with Razer.
5:16 This. This is how you get me to watch sponsor spots.
I get that going AMD was the right move for now, but since I mainly use my 'old' 2019 Blade Pro at a desk the lack of Thunderbolt 3 is a no-go unless one of those USB-C ports connects directly to the graphics chip so GSYNC can still work over a USB-C to DP adapter. Current Blade Pro is driving a 3440 x 1440 100hz GSYNC monitor and GSYNC works via the TB3 port.
the bottom lid made it look like an omen 15. but wow those fan blades look insane. i wonder if by time they would get clogged. but by the looks of it im impressed by the internal cooling. just not the soldered ram lol
DBrand should sponsor all LMG vides moving forward 😂
That moment got me so good 😂
Linus sounded so, not excited for this ad segment 🤣
Why do these comments feel so fake..? like people don't talk like this, plus it's promoting something, plus no offense if you have flesh but Ed Paul sounds 100% like a fake account bot name
Hopefully getting one of these in the next week or so and giving my blade 15 to my little bro.
congrats
That Quality Control person though, kudos!
I kind of lost hope for Razer laptops after a few generations... I hope this is a turning point
@Ladioz true wealth
I’m still waiting for an in-depth review on this🤣
When is linus doing his full review on LTT for this? actually been waiting 😂
That dbrand ad was top notch
this laptop is genuinely so impressive, just wish i could afford one
buy second hand from facebook market, go visit and buy on sight, that way you wont pay tax.
or buy in ebay and pay tax and never recieve it haahaha
or buy it in amazon warehouse online and get something almost like new but only with 10-30% off.
I found it from Facebook market, but traveled 10hours to get to the seller, only bought for 1300 Euros for a 2 month old 3070. you might find better catch you need to search and put some efford.
@@hewadsaad3014 Do not ever buy a Razer from a used marketplace without buyer protection (i.e. cash)
All great and stuff let's see if it can last over a year without something breaking down on it.
Changing the mouse is a nice touch
nooooooooooooo dont hurt linus! ive been waiting for this laptop review for a month now, glad to see Linus somewhat enjoyed this one- i could tell razer was really trying to impress Linus with the ports.
Did you forget to mention if the ram was x8 or x16. In the previous LTT video ya’ll said you would always mention it!!
I don't think he can. Those details are usually given on a sticker on the RAM stick, but in this case there's no stick - the DRAM modules are all soldered into the board.
Maybe this was pre record before LTT is up. Or they are just doing it on their full reviews of laptops.
Razer lost me as a customer due to their customer support. I got one of the Blades for my gf because it was at the time one of the few gaming laptops that did not look like something designed by a 12 year old. It has a lot to like about it, but it's also extremely disappointing in how noisy it gets unless you purposefully downgrade it.
But what made me forget Razer for future purchase was the customer support. The battery started bulging to the point that the trackpad did not work. I took it out to be safe and contacted Razer about a replacement. They refused to send me just a new battery or have me send the battery to them to get a new one. No, instead I was supposed to backup and wipe the machine, send it with a defective battery halfway across the world so they can open it, replace the battery and send it back to me. With no guaranteed timeframe when this would actually happen. That was just a ridiculous thing to ask for when my gf needed this for school and the problem could have been solved by an easily user replaceable part, you can even see the battery and it's connection in this video.
Provide replacement parts or provide a service that can get the machine repaired in a clear timeframe.
I have heard tons of bad things about Razer and their poor support. They expect to charge Apple prices, yet doesn't deliver the Apple support.
Authorities should slap them with fines for that. What an absolute waste of resources and time on everyone's side.
@@tams805 companies have too much power chances of that happening is very rare and likely won't leave to much, but this is why you don't buy from razer or any company just buy it from egg or Microsoft store something like that they offer better return and replacement
Go on the Razer forums and almost every blade owner has this problem. It is from overengineering (You put the fastest CPU and GPU on the market in a chassis made out of metal the size of a macbook, watch it heat up to over 90 degrees, and then wonder why the battery begins to fail?). It is an easy enough fix, but yeah, Razer is no Apple.
Source: Owner of several Retina 15" MBP, and typing this on a 15" Blade that I replaced a budging battery on.
This has helped me big time thanks for uploading this certain razer blade Gaming Laptop
One thing I love more than Linus' segways to his sponsors, when the sponsor is dbrand.
I'd love to see which he decides to use daily. The Blade 14 does look considerably bigger though.
Life seems to be getting Linus down a bit, as he seems somewhat subdued recently. I guess he's seen manufacturers try to pull so much shit that it has just gotten very old.
Framework came out of left field. So the answer is neither I guess lol.
I’m glad the body isn’t tapered and stays consistent.
I had a razer blade 15 loke 3/4 years ago and i gotta say that running games at high settings is a chore especially with bad air flow.
But damn they're fresh. The minimalist, matte black metal design. reminds me of the old MacBooks from 2008.
on one of your channels please review thermals and preferably with a TIM swap (liquid metal, etc.)
It’s so stupid that amd still hasn’t added usb4 to their products. If gigabyte and asrock can add tb3 surely they can all add usb4.
What's USB 4?
@@JeskidoYT USB4 = Thunderbolt 3.
What makes it crazier is a ton of b550 and x570 boards have thunderbolt headers, which 99% of people will never use. So AMD isn't just saying no thunderbolt, AIBs are actively deciding to add it to products a minority wants them on, and keep them absent on products the majority wants them on. It's a weird situation
Intel is delaying it as much as legally possible. The controller may be royalty free, but AMD still needs Intel's input to make it work, just like Apple did with the M1 chip.
We will possibly see it in late 2022, judging by AMD CPU roadmap.
I love how inside the box it says Razer is committed to sustainability yet basically everything is plastic wrapped 🤣
Could be a nice environment friendly plastic
and everything non upgradable
Every company pretends to stand for something. It's always a lie.
Yeah, the Blade Stealth late 2019 was packaged all in cardboard and it was actually quite fancy, a nice unboxing experience sort of thing... but I ended up having to send it back and got it replaced with a late 2020 one, and I was surprised to find things had seemingly gone backwards... all in plastic (same as in this video) which was nowhere near as nice to open and I would have thought less recyclable... they seem to think it's more recyclable somehow though? 🤷♂️
@@Harry830 only your ram is non upgradeable
The ROG Flow X13 makes a bit more sense for the cost vs the Blade 14. And from what I'm seeing, the Flow X13 will be getting the RTX 3050 soon.
Hopefully, we see more of these sponsors put Linus into funny situations like this.. next maybe a dunk tank while throwing the sponsors items at the target :D
😂😂😂😂 Dbrand is the coolest spoonsor EVER! Bunch of crazy bots! 😂
"This cooling system though, this is pretty cool"
Ah yes, the floor here is made of floor
That's not how that joke works bud
I Watched from my razer blade 15! Got to say I'm really happy with my purchase 😊 the only problem is the battery... But honestly I could not use a batter laptop
How's the battery life?
The rear glass on my iPhone 12pro broke inside the Dbrand grip case when it fell off my bathroom vanity. About thirty inches. The front glass and glass screen protector survived
They should definitely review the new Legion 7. Apparently that machine is packing some serious performance

@@Ervinnd I never got the appeal of any kind of RGB, especially in laptops. Doesn't that just fade away when you're using a computer? Maybe it's just me, I always buy silent, non-transparent cases, with a Noctua cooler of some kind. It looks really good and costs a lot less than RGB parts.

thumbs up because of Dbrand sponsoring ad :D its hilarious!
The Q, W, E, A, S, and D keys on my Blade 14 melted when the system failed to go to sleep after the lid was closed. Razer had no interest in covering it and wouldn't sell me a new keyboard.
That sucks. For what'd worth it, Razer subreddit has tons of defects and issues regarding their laptops. The n.1 issue is battery expansion.
Great to see Razer's asshattery hasn't changed for more than 10 years now. QA defects, design flaws, not even honouring warranty that's included with purchase. And many many more...

It looks nice, I just wish the razer logo was more subdued. Probably more than I would be willing to pay for a machine like this.

@@kaibeasley5965 can you? I'm pretty sure you can't. But then I own the blade 15 2020. The backlit logo is connected to the display itself and it's brightness corresponds with the display brightness. Maybe I'm wrong on this model.
@yeh nah it's 14 inch how much ram do you need in that size lmao 💀
@@medicgaming2705 is your Blade 15 a base model? I think I've heard people say the advanced model has an option to turn it off but not the base one
If they finally fixed the cooling (my blades battery swelled to the point that I have to use it permanently plugged in) thats great, but I dont think I can ever trust a blade again, or possibly any other "high performance" laptop. At least not as a primary computer.
Either desktops or old thinkpads for me from now on
Just talking about memory downgrading your performance and unboxing razer blade 14. Nice
Damn can't wait to use it with a 32 GB memory configuration.
Honestly will probably feel just the same as the 16gb config. I don't remember a memory config feeling different since going up from 4-8.
The thing I hate about Razer is how easily everything breaks. I used to love their mice and keyboards, and was totally oblivious to this until a friend of mine was like "...how many mice have you gone through over the past few years?" On the surface, this thing looks slick as hell. I don't know why laptop manufactures think gaming laptops need to look like futuristic scifi spaceships. Just having the immense power of a gaming laptop inside a moderately benign case is definitely my preference. But I just don't know if I could drop down the kind of scratch needed for a laptop like this and trust I'd still be able to use it in 2 years.
They came out with a new Flow X13 with a 3050Ti in it that is quite a bit better than the 1650 model that you reviewed a few months ago
Dbrand throwing stuff on Linus takes me back to the good old days of Fractal Design on Techquickie
Knowing Razer, the laptop will break down in a year or two as usual.
six months
Have you own any razer product.
@@592Johno i have and they all broke in a year
And knowing Razer, they will take no accountability for any damage they've done. Their "support" is there to misdirect customers, and eventually tire them out to giving up.
