Razer Blade 15 Base Model - 15.6 Inch Gaming Laptop with 165 Hz QHD Display (Intel i7-11800H, NVIDIA RTX 3070, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, Chroma RGB) UK Layout | Black

I've worked with laptops with the same spec as this but they've came in at almost double the price.However, this laptop comes in at a great price and has a really good style to it.I've had gaming laptops before and I've been looking into an up to date one for some time now. However, my major turn off has been the style of the laptop. A lot of gaming laptops seem to take themselves too seriously with the RGB everywhere, crazy air vents and whatnot. They end up looking quite ugly.The Razer Blade looks like a premium regular laptop, almost the Macbook but for Windows. The RGB keyboard is a bonus but a simple backlight would have sufficed. When using the laptop out and about I feel less worried that it would be stolen, it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb and pretend its an expensive gamer laptop.Performance wise, I've thrown copious workloads at this. From heavy gaming sessions with settings on max to heavy programming environments with virtual machines running. Its definitely one of those machines you could accidentially leave a game in the background and not notice.My primary reason for the laptop was to move from an aging gaming desktop I built 5 years ago and is really showing its age. I wanted to be able to take my projects on the go without transfering files between an 'alright' laptop and my desktop. Instead, I've moved fully to this laptop and with the use of USB-C I have three monitors hooked up along with my keyboard, mouse, speakers and ethernet.If I need to go out somewhere, either on a trip or visiting friends/family. Unplugging a few cables is all it takes. I've had no real issues with the laptop so far, any issues have generally been down to cheap USB-C hubs or Windows 11.100% would recommend this laptop as an affordable laptop you can throw some more storage and RAM into and have a really powerful desktop replacement. So far, so good.

Bottom line is I was disappointed with this laptop to the point i had to return.This is a very capable laptop in terms of performance however it lacks very basic features a laptop in this price point should have by default:- No Windows Hello Camera- No Windows Hello finger print reader- No USB-C charging !!!! - Pro version needed- No per key RGB - Pro version neededI was also expecting more from the battery - i know this is a higher powered laptop however even browsing the web with the 3070 GPU off the battery life was not acceptable in my opinion and to add insult to injury the charging time is slow! It's a 270w charger so should be able to charge faster! I would also say the charger is quite large.The build quality is excellent and i would say is on par with Apple.Even for the price i paid £1430 at the time (with Black Friday discount) not having the above has let this device down - especially the lack of USB-C charging capability. I think its just another tech company wanting you to spend more for little to no reason!

I got razer blade 3070 gtx should run smoothly on high spec games like csgo and am getting 130 fps only, not only that laptop lags even doing simple stuff like word or opening chrome, i asked customer service for help to exchange or get a new one no help from them 2000€ in the bin.

This is a premium laptop and you can tell, the screen is top notch and the build quality is too. It is more expensive than other 3070 laptops so if budget is your concern I would not look at this latop. At the black Friday price this is a great buy, do not buy at full price.

Great laptop well worth the price:PRO's- Screen- Graphics Card- Resolution- Speed- Cost- Design / Feel / Touchpad- No Bloatware e.g Norton / Mcafee etxCONS - BatteryThis machine plays Rocket League at Ultra 165fps and any other game easily, you just need to make sure that you change the defaults inside Razors app from 'Balanced to 'Gaming'
