Great computer overall only issue I had is it has a dedicated graphics card but you have to manually choose the app that will use graphics card and most users won’t know this and think it’s just slow running video. If you game and use to razor products you will know this but I do heavy video editing and this computer was ok at it running Adobe Suite. Back to the MacBook Pro.

Razer - Blade 15.6" Gaming Laptop

I have to say, no. No, there isn't. There are some that come closer to perfection than others and this one certainly falls in that category. But all of them, in one way or another, have things about them that I thought could be either improved or made less annoying and this one is no exception.
The 'pros' are numerous but, what sets this device apart from others in its class is its incredible build-quality. I thought I would have to go with a MacBook Pro to get the best available but Razer has proven otherwise with this latest iteration of the Blade line-up. It's solid to the point of being almost over-built. It's like it was specifically designed for business professionals who needed a durable and understated device for work purposes but, still wanted to be able to have a little fun at the end of the day. If that's you, the Blade 15 is a great choice. Fingerprints on the Mercury White model are nonexistent. The only thing that really gives it away as a gamer is the Razer logo on the lid which, thankfully, does not illuminate when powered-up. Otherwise, it looks like a normal business ultrabook that won't stand-out the same way a gaming laptop will. It's a brilliant design in that regard: a literal wolf in sheep's clothing.
The Nvidia RTX 2060 GPU packs a punch. My games have never run faster or looked better than they do now but, it comes at a price. Make no mistake: this thing heats-up, yet, it's amazing how well it dissipates heat for its size. It's a little disconcerting at first but, it cools-down quickly and stays that way unless gaming heavily. Again, for its size and capabilities, the Blade 15 is pretty quiet. The only time I ever hear the fans engage is while gaming and they're considerably less noisy than I expected them to be. All things considered, Razer did a good job with temperature management considering the combination of CPU and GPU packed into a case this small.
There aren't enough downsides for me to rate the Blade 15 lower than a 5, though. The keyboard is a bit shallower than I'm accustomed to. The price is a bit on the high side. The display could stand to be slightly brighter than it is. The built-in speakers could be less mid-rangey, yet, I'm completely satisfied overall and proud to own such an incredible laptop.

Everything is great on this laptop! The RTX 2060 handles anything and everything I throw at it. Only AAA titles are unable to be maxed out (which is fine since i try to go for 100+ FPS). The CPU is great as well, but overheats quite a bit even with undervolting. I wish this had the new Ryzen chips, but I did get it a while ago.

This laptop has everything I need to play the current games. The only downfall is that it gets a little warm while playing certain games at max settings.

Great performance in one of the smallest and lightest 15inch form factors. Really good temperatures due to vapor chamber cooling.

I bought this last week and wow impressed. I bought the GS 65 and Asus Zeph S 2070 both are returned due to the fan noise and single channel ram. This razer manage to play every games i throw at it such as BO4, New Dawn, Anthem with above 70 fps high setting. It also has dual channel ram 8GB x2. Overall happy with this product

A little pricey but its worth it. I've tried numerous gaming laptops for cheaper price but they all felt cheap and the sound wasn't great on them. I think I've tried 5+ and returned them. I decided to splurge and purchase the razer and I've decided to keep it. The quality is really good and the stock sound is pretty good as well.

Loved it until we had a speaker with smoke coming out of it. Was taken back with no problem. Was given a credit and replaced with an other model.

Was very excited to receive the laptop only to find that there were problems with the speakers, that in and of itself wasn't a major problem. I took the laptop to geek squad had it sent in and waited two and a half weeks to find that the speaker had been fixed, but the laptop chassis had been damaged. Initially I thought it be no big deal to exchange it for the same laptop, however, I was told that I would have to pay the difference in price between my open box and a new one to do so, even after they had came back with my supposedly repaired $2100 laptop more damaged than it was. They then gave me the option to take it back in to Geek Squad to repair the newly damaged parts and gave me a quote of one and a half weeks. At this point it has been two weeks and they are still waiting on parts. I haven't been compensated in the least for the hassle that was caused. Overall, a very bad experience with Best Buy for a problem that I could have fixed given permission to receive parts from Razer.

If you've ever purchased a Razer product, you know that they're all expensive, and this unit is no exception. For the expensive price you get a pretty good build, but the hardware is mediocre for the price. The port selection isn't too terrible, but I do like the silver construction which doesn't get fingerprints all over it.
