Picked it up for editing photos and rendering videos, not ideal to play intense graphic games, unless you pick up the Razer Core with a dedicated videocard! I wouldn't recommend for heavy gaming but for light gaming it will be ok, if you want a better gaming experience go with a laptop with a dedicated videocard gtx 1070 or higher! Doesnt hve to be a Razer laptop, you wont be happy gaming on a razer laptop, you left palm will be toasting and sweaty!! as the body will heat up very good being all aluminum!

Had this computer for about 3 months and use it almost daily and don't recommend. Use for school only and run solidworks along with general google chrome and not impressed. The battery life is awful, lasts about 8 hours tops (my previous computer i could use for over a week before having to charge). Have to carry around charger. Computer heats up just using google chrome. The cursors constantly freezes up. Updates take hours... planning on exchanging in the near future but just need to finish this semester. Only pros are the size.

Coming from Apple this was the easiest transition. It was different at first just remember how much more control you have over a mac, kinda of like standard vs and automatic transmission. Zero complaints except for secondary key functions not backlit but you get over that miniscule issue quickly. All around a very efficient,quick, and well made machine. I use this laptop for work, ms office, day trading, light photo/video editing, music editing(it came with a free download for FL studio not really a fan of FL studio) and even some gaming. This really is such a powerful tool I’m glad to have in my arsenal and the fact it’s super thin and light makes it easy to carry around. If you’re on the fence and coming from Apple products like a MacBook Pro (as I was), or even if you’re a windows user, do it pull the trigger well worth it. Last thing I’ll say is I’ve heard other complain about “coil wine” but honestly I can barely hear it, I have to listen closely and make sure it dead quiet and then I can hear a very faint sound under load miles away from my dying MacBook Pro that fans would kick in just opening YouTube.

Purchased this in-store which was an open-box item
In perfect condition. Also picked up a Razer core external GPU, which works great with the Blade. It’s like the mullet of laptop computers: Business in the front, party in the back!

Great for work/gaming

Bought this as a combined work/gaming machine, and it's doing a stellar job.
Looks aren't for everyone, but no one has yet commented on the garish green logo on the back so it's not a major issue. The key backlights are individually programmable, which is endless fun.
The new Kaby Lake processors are amazing, and this thing has a solid 8 hours of battery life with great performance. It's super light, which is great for lugging around the city.
A couple of drawbacks:
Weak integrated graphics card. Be prepared to shell out a lot more for an external GPU if you want to play games above low settings.
The function button lights up the function keys, which is cool, but not the actual function symbols, which is not.

Very thin light laptop that's not garbage or a MacBook. Quick, beautiful display, and nice chroma key lighting. Hard drive is removable, but ram is soldered in. Last quite a while on a charge, and the bezel change is amazing compared to the 12.5. Keyboard is not my favorite, check in store first if you're about key travel and feel. But for what I'm using it for, it doesn't matter. All in all, a great laptop and better than their 12.5.

Turns on in seconds which is awesome. Super fast computer, though it has some resizing issues as the icons are very tiny.
Smooth working with a nice touch pad and buttons.

The title says it all. I'm very disappointed because I feel I cannot relay on this laptop for the everyday use and my work. I am a very big Razer fan, and I waited years to buy a Blade laptop.
It stopped working three days ago and it seems that the only way to hard reset it is to screw-remove the back and manually remove the battery.
I'm back to my XPS 13 to work every day.

This is an awesome laptop, but it does get a little warm and also when you try to do anything mildly demanding the battery life drains like crazy, but I gotta say it beats my old Macbook Pro like no tomorrow in terms of speed and performance.

I run multiple programs at a time. Everything from word to excel to blackboard as I am an online instructor. After a few weeks of testing the stealth out it has exceeded my expectations.

I wanted to love this laptop, but it was not what I expected. The bezel was a bit big and the Intel graphics card was not as I would say gaming quality to justify this as a gaming laptop for the price. It needed Windows 10 update and after I updated it over night, I began having battery charging issues and sound issues. I looked at Razer's website and under support page, it seems like battery charging is an issue. I had to return and exchange this laptop for something more reliable.
