There should be a disclaimer on each and every Razer laptop about quality control. For review purposes, Razer sends a unique unit without any flaws. Anyone who is considering buying it should do their research about all issues these machines and tech support have for this money.
I’m well aware also and have dealt with their Qc bull shit. But I haven’t seen any negative reviews yet on the 17 inch model. So I don’t know maybe they solved their qc problem on the 17 inch.

Even though I’m not interested in this laptop ,I can’t help but watch the whole video because it’s legitimately is informative and straight to the point honestly great work dave and I hope you can keep this up
You are just awesome... You just rip off every laptop from inside to outside. I haven't seen a single video showing the thermals, ssd and ram upgrade options. Your videos are simply amazing. Keep going... 👍
Ayyyyy the review i needed. I'm gald i bought the latest 15 now... That smaller battery definitely worried me to include its size and performance. It sacrifices a lot from the mobility aspect that overall personify's a laptop. Thank for the dope vid.
Dave, love your reviews. Could you possibly start testing thermals on laptops when they're closed and on external monitors? Some users like to game on a docked setup and some laptops have cooling setups that work closed, and others that don't.
I also think Razer made the right choice here with going pro cooling over battery size. Considering the large screen even a 90W battery would probably only result in something like 4? hours of battery life. This is something for people who want something fast as a desktop replacement that they can take with them on the go when needed.
yes it is. msi's new laptop fit a 17 inch screen on their 15 inch body from last year, and they have good battery life. what's the point of a thin and light if they can't just take it somewhere? for this price, the battery life is a major deal breaker for me, and a lot of other people. In addition, there are a lot of other laptops with better cpu's and probably better graphics card if you don't care about battery life. buying t his laptop is like buying an apple product, cuz it is a big rip off
@@jyggaswoop2774 Thin and light is great so it's not painful to carry it around. But I'd be okay with a powerful gaming laptop that only works when plugged in. I cannot think of a place where I'd want to use this laptop but couldn't get access to a power socket.
i hate how razer ignores india they could very easily tap a large market here but i guess they dont think it would be profitable to set up the infrastructure for a large country as india with relatively few people buying it here
Hear me out tho: if you have friends in more easily accessible places for Razer, you could order it to their place, and then get them to ship it to you
17" screens are tricky. gaming on them is great. but then you also kinda lose the point of having a more mobile work station by not being able to get that laptop into a backpack. I have an Acer predator 17" and while the weight is no issue the size is always annoying to transport. I agree the 15" is the way to go if you plan on traveling a lot with it.
Hi Dave, ed there and I liked this video. Razer is getting so close to giving apple some serious competition in the laptop market. The port selection on this unit is so good. I really miss that on my macbook. I look forward to seeing more followup videos on this device. Curious to learn more about how it does in video editing.
Hey Dave! Can you please do what are the best laptops for Architecture students with different budgets? (Under 1000, 1500 and 2000 dollars.) What is really important for us is having fast render time for 3D modeling software, so a great processor is a must. Also, a good graphic cards for smooth viewport in the programs. A +16 Gbs Ram because we use different programs at the same time. Finally, a great color accuracy in the screen for photoshop and adobe softwares. It would be great if you can do a series of videos for best laptops for college student, gamers, content creators, architects and casual users for different budget, since you reviewed a lot of laptops.
Nice review Dave. Yep, agree, I'm actually using the 2019 Blade 15 Advanced and would definitely recommend it over the Blade Pro 2019. They should have used the 8 core cpu in the Pro, fixed the "?" situation and put a higher capacity battery in it. All your getting that is extra are ports and screen size which potentially for photographers on the go might be the only reason to get this thing.
Since the battery life is already so low, I really don't understand why Razer didn't include a G Sync option. The Panel refresh is high enough to make Adaptive Sync not a strict necessity but its still a glaring omission on a 17 inch desktop replacement class device that isn't even going to have all day battery life anyway. Three hours of battery life is better than the two it would have without Optimus but I think most gamers looking at the Blade Pro as a potential main rig would make the trade off. It features a DP 1.4 port which supports G Sync on external displays so I'm guessing Razer is using that as a crux.
Got mine in today from Razer - loving it, especially after upgrading to 32gb of 3200mhz RAM and swapping the 512gb ssd for a pair of 1tb Samsung 960 Pro drives for speedy RAID 0. Now if only dbrand would get off their butts and ship the skins...
Funny how that amazing razer laptop is 2500$, meanwhile the folding phones that are way worse spec and size wise are just as much... hmmmm. People even justify the 2500-3000$ folding phones, but when it comes to laptops 3000 is expensive LOL. OKAY PEOPLE :D
It depends on which you use more. People who take advantage of these laptops will justify the price. People who actually use their phones to the max will be able to justify the $2K price tag of the Galaxy Fold.
The cooling is better in this then in the 15 inch... so does it show in games, in improved framerates? Or is it the same as the 15 inch rtx 2080?? Thnx for a great video :D
Very nice laptop glad to hear it's better thermals wise. But that right side shift still makes it a no go even if it was better value then the competition that crushes it.
I second this. I'm in the market for a gaming laptop and having never looked closely at the market since I've been using a desktop for years, I'd like a comprehensive comparison so I can know what I'm really buying.
Hey Dave I am looking for a new notebook for under $500 for college I am looking for a good display and keyboard and trackpad decent amount of ports I am not going to use it for gaming but might use it for light photo editing
Most people don't want to hear this but a used Macbook might be a good choice. I could never use Windows laptop for work until their trackpad catches up with the iMac or their desktop trackpad. Apple's trackpad is like using a smart phone but way more accurate and faster. For gaming I would for sure go with Windows laptop.
In my opinion 17 inch laptop is not a type of slim or thin laptop it’s good to have nice looking laptop and thin laptop but without losing advantage of getting big size laptop so the most important is the cooling system with high aspect so the previous model was much better for me especially the sound scrolling controlling
Waiting for your test of the Blade 15 2019. That said I am impressed with the cooling they built in here. This clearly is more of a desktop replacement and tbh if you want something you carry around a lot the Blade 15 is the better choice. If however you want something you can take with you when needed but at home you got a very powerful system I think the Blade 17 is the way to go. I miss two things: More screen options but that's not Razers fault (they can only build in what is available on the markt) and a different color. Personally I'd love to see a gunmetal grey version of this. I hope they'll release another color in the future, more CPU options (seeing the potent cooling solution) would also be cool.
@@alphabetamusic7 Yeah a 120HZ OLED which is neat but why only with super expensive Quadro cards and why only silver for that model? I just don't like the black, after a day of use it looks like shit because you see EVERYTHING on it.. -_-
I hope they have an iteration of the Razer Blade lineup that has the more traditional keyboard layout (Razer Blade 14), SD card slot for both the 15" and 17" models, Windows Hello IR and on the power button (fingerprint sensor), and a more flexible power cable just so it adds less bulk. I wish they could somehow adapt this thermal solution while somehow keeping the battery @ 80w-hr or 90w-hrs. It would be absolutely the smashing Windows "macbook" experience that will bring more people, gamers and professionals alike, to the Razer Blade!
The 15 inch does have extra options for the screen. Get the 8750H and a 144hz FHD panel, or the 9750H and a 240hz panel, or the 9750H and a 4k OLED 60hz panel. The jump from 144hz to 240hz is noticable but only slightly. You wont get frames that high on must AAA games at higher settings, its best for people who game competitively. However the 9750H is worth it, and so is the 4k OLED screen. For the 17 inch model, 144hz is perfectly fine and if you want more youre better off docking it to the side on your desk and hooking up a bigger and better monitor and external keyboard and mouse.
Lmao they're crazy if they think I'd pay 2650 w tax for a 2060 1080p and only 512 gb storage. I got my ASUS ROG gl702 w a 1070 and gsync for 1200 (new open box) in September of 2017 and it still destroys games on ultra, dropped an SSD and some more ram in there for $160 and it's a beast still.
@@kyorhane You're right, I'm sure. I can and am willing to buy 2500 dollar machine, but for that price I'd expect more as an informed customer. Consider the Zephyrus S GX701 17.3" for $2500, 1TB NVMe, 144hz Gsync, RTX 2070. Which in my opinion is a better looking device. Not to generalize but if you look at Razer's target audience across various platforms (consider Xbox accessories), a slight majority are either less informed folk or people who care more about the established name brand (edit: or both). Not saying they don't make quality products, but as far as value, most in THIS community can see through the marketing.
Saw your review amongst others on this notebook and popped down to Scorptec and picked up with the 2060 version. This is by far my favourite laptop over the last year and a half and i’ve been through a few from macbook 15 pro vega 20 (60hz sucks for competitive shooter), Zepherus with 1070maxq (terrible ergonomics), razer blade 15 1070maxq (light bleed and noisy), then replace it with Razer Blade 15 with 2070max-Q then for some bazaar reasons, i then went with a Razer Blade 13.3 mx150 with egpu (2060) and honestly, can’t game on the go and I find the tiny screen practically makes the notebook useless besides web surfing. My Razer Blade Pro 17 with RTX2060 is by far my favourite, the larger screen compares to the Razer Blade 15 advanced makes so much difference. I no longer need to hunch over the a small 15 inch screen and I can sit back and enjoy the extra screen realestate. I only play RB6 and i really like the factory calibrated panel. Colours vibrate and sharp. I was concerned about the lack of G-Sync but I never saw any choppiness at ultra settings with no AA and getting 100-144fps. Silky smooth. Fan noise was ok, not the quietest but definitely no where near macbook pro territory. Lastly, for those interested, this is a heavy device and the power adapter is also heavy. Thanks for the review.
It actually does come with a better screen option, the 4K screen for the 17" has 120hz refresh rate vs the 60hz on the 15". It's also not an OLED, which is better for creators, and has better color reproduction, but I don't think it has HDR.
Honestly surprised they didn't throw in the 4k 100% Adobe RGB monitor from the 15", that would have made it almost irresistible from a creators point of view.
I think the batter life won't really be an issue. Like my Blade 15", it's usually at home almost acting like a desktop. Obviously, that's how I use mine so your mileage may vary.
Nice that basically iunlock's mod on the xps 15 is utilized officially by Razer. Although it sacrifices battery, it's still a good idea for gaming laptops
What, did you want this thing to cost $1,000? Its not over priced actually. Compared to the rest of the competition, this is pretty competitively priced. Just because you cant afford it does not mean others can't.
@@mrb-btw You're out of your mind if you don't think $3200 is a lot for a laptop. There are other companies out there that have similar specs for a fraction of the cost WITH a 4K screen. And who said I cant afford it?
@@kyshro it's specs IN a rather compact package. You always have to choose at least two out of a trio "portability-price-performance". Price comes not only from main components, but from decent cooling as well. Can't break laws of physics for cheap, son! :)
SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. Thanks for watching!!

In my opinion 17 inch laptop is not a type of slim or thin laptop it’s good to have nice looking laptop and thin laptop but without losing advantage of getting big size laptop so the most important is the cooling system with high aspect so the previous model was much better for me especially the sound scrolling controlling
Now if that laptop costs $200, I would buy it.
Build a desktop if you want $200 sth good. Lol
me too
Thanks for the informative video Dave, I'm stuck deciding between these (the 2019 versions anyway) and this has really helped :)
Dave2d is a kurzgesagt fanboi 👍
Waiting for your test of the Blade 15 2019. That said I am impressed with the cooling they built in here. This clearly is more of a desktop replacement and tbh if you want something you carry around a lot the Blade 15 is the better choice. If however you want something you can take with you when needed but at home you got a very powerful system I think the Blade 17 is the way to go.
I miss two things: More screen options but that's not Razers fault (they can only build in what is available on the markt) and a different color. Personally I'd love to see a gunmetal grey version of this. I hope they'll release another color in the future, more CPU options (seeing the potent cooling solution) would also be cool.
@@alphabetamusic7 Yeah a 120HZ OLED which is neat but why only with super expensive Quadro cards and why only silver for that model? I just don't like the black, after a day of use it looks like shit because you see EVERYTHING on it.. -_-
Wow, it's true. My whole life's been a lie....
His been standing the whole time 😲
He's actually standing on his knees on a dolly, so no one can figure out what he's doing. Dave is always one step ahead.

I hope they have an iteration of the Razer Blade lineup that has the more traditional keyboard layout (Razer Blade 14), SD card slot for both the 15" and 17" models, Windows Hello IR and on the power button (fingerprint sensor), and a more flexible power cable just so it adds less bulk. I wish they could somehow adapt this thermal solution while somehow keeping the battery @ 80w-hr or 90w-hrs. It would be absolutely the smashing Windows "macbook" experience that will bring more people, gamers and professionals alike, to the Razer Blade!
can we get a wallpaper from 6:42 please? tq
The 15 inch does have extra options for the screen. Get the 8750H and a 144hz FHD panel, or the 9750H and a 240hz panel, or the 9750H and a 4k OLED 60hz panel. The jump from 144hz to 240hz is noticable but only slightly. You wont get frames that high on must AAA games at higher settings, its best for people who game competitively. However the 9750H is worth it, and so is the 4k OLED screen.
For the 17 inch model, 144hz is perfectly fine and if you want more youre better off docking it to the side on your desk and hooking up a bigger and better monitor and external keyboard and mouse.
Lmao they're crazy if they think I'd pay 2650 w tax for a 2060 1080p and only 512 gb storage.
I got my ASUS ROG gl702 w a 1070 and gsync for 1200 (new open box) in September of 2017 and it still destroys games on ultra, dropped an SSD and some more ram in there for $160 and it's a beast still.
@@kyorhane You're right, I'm sure. I can and am willing to buy 2500 dollar machine, but for that price I'd expect more as an informed customer. Consider the Zephyrus S GX701 17.3" for $2500, 1TB NVMe, 144hz Gsync, RTX 2070. Which in my opinion is a better looking device. Not to generalize but if you look at Razer's target audience across various platforms (consider Xbox accessories), a slight majority are either less informed folk or people who care more about the established name brand (edit: or both). Not saying they don't make quality products, but as far as value, most in THIS community can see through the marketing.
Saw your review amongst others on this notebook and popped down to Scorptec and picked up with the 2060 version. This is by far my favourite laptop over the last year and a half and i’ve been through a few from macbook 15 pro vega 20 (60hz sucks for competitive shooter), Zepherus with 1070maxq (terrible ergonomics), razer blade 15 1070maxq (light bleed and noisy), then replace it with Razer Blade 15 with 2070max-Q then for some bazaar reasons, i then went with a Razer Blade 13.3 mx150 with egpu (2060) and honestly, can’t game on the go and I find the tiny screen practically makes the notebook useless besides web surfing.
My Razer Blade Pro 17 with RTX2060 is by far my favourite, the larger screen compares to the Razer Blade 15 advanced makes so much difference. I no longer need to hunch over the a small 15 inch screen and I can sit back and enjoy the extra screen realestate. I only play RB6 and i really like the factory calibrated panel. Colours vibrate and sharp. I was concerned about the lack of G-Sync but I never saw any choppiness at ultra settings with no AA and getting 100-144fps. Silky smooth. Fan noise was ok, not the quietest but definitely no where near macbook pro territory. Lastly, for those interested, this is a heavy device and the power adapter is also heavy. Thanks for the review.
Kurgesagt Squad!!!
Very interesting video. I missed the Flir nir thermal footage
Its sad that I can't afford this... But great video tho

RaozSkillz I was expecting a “get a job” comment. Yours made me lmao. Good job, fellow denizen of the internet!
It actually does come with a better screen option, the 4K screen for the 17" has 120hz refresh rate vs the 60hz on the 15". It's also not an OLED, which is better for creators, and has better color reproduction, but I don't think it has HDR.
Waiting for your review on Zephyrus S GX502
YEEEESSSSSSS
Honestly surprised they didn't throw in the 4k 100% Adobe RGB monitor from the 15", that would have made it almost irresistible from a creators point of view.
me clicking on the link
me seeing 3k $ price
me closing the internet browser
me dreaming buying dat laptop.
I think the batter life won't really be an issue. Like my Blade 15", it's usually at home almost acting like a desktop. Obviously, that's how I use mine so your mileage may vary.

Dave 2D: *strokes laptop*
Cool reviews man! I enjoy your videos!
I was born at the right time
Now give me my like
Dave continues to dominate the tech review world 👍🏾 simply the best
Make a video on acer predeator helios 300 and 700 2019 edition
Nice that basically iunlock's mod on the xps 15 is utilized officially by Razer. Although it sacrifices battery, it's still a good idea for gaming laptops
That moment when Razerblade “PRO” release a 1080 screen in 2019 lol
4K still sucks in Windows 10 and battery life takes a huge hit
@@McNetDeck Wrong bro, my Alienware13 Oled touch is 2K and works perfectly on Windows 10 and another Dell 4k also works wonders.
@@joncruz I have a Dell XPS 13 4K and I get 4.5 hours and that's just basic web browsing / word.
McNetDeck Defective, call warranty.
マッドルースター Well if 4K in 17 is trash I can’t imagine how worst it is at 1080 “genius”.
Found your channel by luck but I kinda like your reviews , simplistic and to the point .
You also love Kurzgesagt videos? 2:49
Lucky Vishnoi who cares
Who doesn't
This man is always positive/Straight been a long time follower love your stuff GG mate GG
Would be interested if it wasn't so overpriced....
What, did you want this thing to cost $1,000? Its not over priced actually. Compared to the rest of the competition, this is pretty competitively priced. Just because you cant afford it does not mean others can't.
@@mrb-btw You're out of your mind if you don't think $3200 is a lot for a laptop. There are other companies out there that have similar specs for a fraction of the cost WITH a 4K screen. And who said I cant afford it?
@@kyshro What companies have similar specs for a fraction of the cost? Closest competitor that comes to mind is the Zephyrus
@@kyshro it's specs IN a rather compact package. You always have to choose at least two out of a trio "portability-price-performance". Price comes not only from main components, but from decent cooling as well.
Can't break laws of physics for cheap, son! :)
I have stopped watching reviews of laptops or desktops now. It just hurts man not being able to afford them.
Watched this one because of Dave :-)
Well hello there a review of a product I won't buy.
I just wanted to let you know you the best video ever. I am buying this because of you
