    4k video with 144Hz is awesome. I was shopping for a 1080P 360 Hz 17" Razer and the Best Buy salesman directed me to this model. I was skeptical but bought the unit when the salesman encouraged me ro try it out and if within 2 weeks i was not satisfied, i could bring it back. I kept the Razer

    This was a win for my gamer son. He tried an Alienware from Dell but had to return both for performance issues. This was the alternative, and it has exceeded expectations.

    Runs all my games without any issues. It does get hot though, so it's more of a portable desktop replacement than it is a laptop. Battery life is non existent. Still though no complaints

    This laptop is FAST. By far the fastest rig that I've ever used/owned (I also own a liquid cooled i7 6700K with GTX1080 TI desktop). One thing that is a bit of a bummer is the airflow. There isn't enough, but if you prop it up so that more air can be blown into the laptop, you get a noticeable bump up in performance (such as FPS) as performance is throttled when temperatures reach a certain degree. Running a benchmark on it, I got "UFO" (the best rating) on every category using User Benchmark. I've had it for a month and a week and I still absolutely love it. Another downside is the price tag, but that's to be expected for a i9 12900, RTX 3080 TI, and a 144Hz 4K screen with 32GB of DDR5 RAM. It's a beast of a machine and, in my opinion, you get what you pay for.

    I bought this after having an issue with a similar spec'd (except for the display) Alienware X17 R2 and can't express how much nicer this unit is. Razer's are always described as what an Apple gaming laptop would be and that description seems about right. Excellent fit and finish, fantastic display, and has turned fantastic gaming benchmarks. Last but least, works great with my Valve Index (needs a DisplayPort to USB-C adaptor).

    Most games do not even run 4K steady 60 fps and this laptop suffers from frame drops and also screen lag. Do not buy!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This Laptop is a VAST improvement from the 2021 model. Better graphic? i9 processor, cooling, better speakers and subwoofer, 280W PSU, 144hz display and HDMI 2.1. The price tag is steep but this is literally one of the most versatile laptops for gaming skd creative work money can buy.

    Worst Laptop Experience Ever

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The worst experience I have ever had with a laptop and a company's customer service. I will NEVER buy from razer again. Currently in the process of trying to get a refund and get something else. I had a hard crash and display issues my second time booting up. Razer support had no solutions and couldn't tell me if the issues were indicative of an issue with the laptop (if this is a common thing I feel bad for razer owners everywhere). The 1 star is only representing that it can indeed run games at high settings well, so it does that when it isn't just blue screened. I really want to reinforce that the crashing and driver issues started with NOTHING installed complete blank and crashing on second boot. Even after clean installing reinstalling updating etc etc with the drivers no improvement, and Razer has 0 offerings. Basically been told sorry that sucks nothing we can do, nowhere I can bring it, nothing to to besides send it in for a week - and no they don't offer any temporary solutions here. Absolutely the most frustrating and crushing experience I've ever had I will try and persuade any single person from buying a razer laptop for the rest of my life. If someone from there sees this more than happy to provide case numbers, but it's really just sad. Don't buy
