Razer - Blade 16 - 16" Gaming Laptop - Dual Mini LED 4K UHD+FHD - Intel i9 HX - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 - 32GB RAM - 1TB SSD - Mercury

It’s okay. It runs great for gaming, cpu does get hot so I would recommend an undervolt. The screen during gaming is amazing and vivid. Productivity wise though screen is very washed out and battery life is horrendous. I ultimately returned it because of this because it was meant to replace my MacBook as well but I couldn’t stand anything other than gaming on it.

One perfect laptop. I couldn’t be happier to get this on black Friday flash deal.

Really happy with this purchase. Screen is by far the best feature on this machine (AUO panel is what I got). Being able to switch between two native resolutions is a game changer. Allows for you to target lower resolution for the gaming and higher for creativity. For gaming, I couldn't ask for more. Well I guess the 4090 could of been more, however, the 4080 performs well beyond me expectations. I can run games at ultra settings and have zero issues. I think if you are looking for the 4090 you are likely looking for best performance (scales better at 4k) Build quality is amazing. A solid build machine, thicker than previous Razer laptops I've used but I think it was a good move to help with thermals. Does not take away from build quality but it is definitely a heavier machine. Only negative thus far for me is the battery life, but with this kind of internals that is expected. If you are looking for longer battery life you may want to consider other options. Also I guess the price should be a negative, but I am ok with it because of the premium build quality. For PCs, it rates up there with my MacBook Pro as far as build quality is concerned. Overall very happy with this purchase and confident in posting a five star review. I don't typically review products but seeing all the negative reviews out there I wanted to post my experience which has been good thus far.

I tried Razer because they are supposed to be the premium Windows machine. Very disappointed especially for the price point. My main gripe is the mini LED dual resolution display. You can tell it's dual resolution because there are horizontal lines that are present (I ordered two machines, and returned for the same reason). I own a MacPro and the miniLED is miles apart from this garbo. To add insult to injury (this could be a Windows 11 problem), the computer never slept when I closed the lid (both machines). I would pull it out of the laptop bag and the battery would be dead <- not to mention the crappy battery life (to be expected for the specs). I don't think Best Buy should be a vendor, writing is on the wall, Razer will become a keyboard company in the near future.

Great option reasonable price, best for architecture

The mini led had a problem with bad shading and blooming - dark spots, bright spots - when used for every day tasks. Browsing the web, email, docs, all look really bad - too dark, grey, washed out. But games and movies are awesome. Razer has not provided a fix - even though asus and others have this solved with single zone settings. Going to have to return this….

VERY POWERFULL BLADE 16, ALL RUN VERY SMOOTH, The DISPLAY IS gorgeous
