It’s rough being a laptop gamer 😔

Companies do everything based on analytics. They probably cut the entry level SKUs because they sell significantly less than their top end kits. They're cutting out extra R&D, manufacturing, loss on slow moving units. Likely they calculated what they're giving up to ROG etc on market share and decided it's not worth the competition on entry level laptops

I recently bought the razor 14 2023. Im travel for work and was looking for a laptop that is travel sized, can handle all of my work and gaming needs while look like a normal business laptop and I was willing to pay the extra price for a solid build and great look. I looked into the G14 and I honestly came down between the two laptops, but again the build quility and design of the razor won me over. I perfer the look of the razor over the G14. I like that it is close to looking like a mac book.

I don't know how ASUS could leapfrog Razer with a 115w GPU in their 16 inch model vs Razer's 175w GPU and (to be determined) thermals that aren't as strong as Razer's. ASUS' line leans towards portability, form factor, and design at the cost of power, whereas Razer offers both albeit being in a more expensive package.

yeah in Australia the prices are normally like 3k+ which is crazy to buy in Australia as with MSI you can get an RTX 4070 for just the same amount which is why in Australia it is not recommended to buy Razer products only because they are overpriced

Razor is expensive but I found a 2022 Blade 14 with the Ryzen 6900HX and 3070ti for just over $1200USD that's virtually brand new. So screw Asus. Also Asus hasn't been known for their customer service in the past either.

I have had a few Razer laptops over the last few years. I had decided to try moving over to the G14 a bit over a year ago because I liked the idea that could upgrade the memory. I ended up with a 2022 G14 and was not happy with it. It was incredibly hot, the white color on the keys made them hard to read in a number of lighting situations and it just wasn't for me. When the 2023 version of the blade 14 came out with upgradable memory, I gave my brother the G14 and just moved over to that and have been very happy with it. I have not seen the newer design of the G14, but hopefully they have solved some of the issues I had with it.

Got the lambo blade 16 and I've been very happy with it. Screen looks great and I'll occasionally run at 4k on the TV. Only wish it had oled but the dual mode mini led is petty great.

So I have a older Razer that uses the thunder port for the Razer external GPU. I love that iv been able too upgrade just the graphics card over the years.

Bought a fully loaded zephyrus 16 in 2024… like with 4090 and max ram and storage coming from a 2021 razer blade 15.
But…. I didnt like the finickyness with the thunderbolt connection i grew accustomed to with the blade . Like i sometimes work on dev jobs for hours straight and never thought of the instability of my dock setups…. But when i got the zephyrus i was troubleshooting everytime…. Then i tryed installing a 4 tb nvme and the zephyrus couldn’t detect it. I installed the same drive into my razer and detected and mounted said drive instantly. Also…. The zephyrus has a metal chasis but has several plastic components which takes away from the experiance. Ironically i returned to my old Razer and felt more comfy with it.

I just wanna know, I wanted to buy a new laptop but I see the razer blade 16 as a good option but don't know if maybe other products like the lenovo legion 9 or as u say a G14. I want to use them as both render, photo editing, 3d modeling and gaming, having the best specs (a laptop because I do move a lot and use it in different places), but after hearing all this, this is a huge thing and know I'm even more confused!!!

The sponsor cutaway was a bit awkward

Razor made some of the most bespoke, business-like laptops for a very long time, but now that everyone else is making their gaming laptops more business-like, they don’t stand out as much anymore

i got my asus zypherus g14 2023 model last year and I'm enjoying it, i always thought about a razer laptop until i saw the g14s upgradability was better, i upgraded mine from 16 GB to 32GB of ram and 512 GB to 2TB of storage and have fallen in love with this laptop.

Austin always makes valid points. I think if you are talking about RTX 4070 for both New G14 and Razer 16 then the G14 if a better price proposition together with the redesign. However for 4080/4090 the Razer will still have the edge due to the higher TGP. Unless Austin know something we don’t 😉

Thanks guy with glasses, i want to be nothing like you and with your clear paid bias, im buying a razer

I bought the Razer with the 4090 and the 14900hx with Oled. This thing insane. Cyberpunk in max out Overdrive Raytracing easy with 110 fps :) and the display omg so gooood. And thx Spartial Audio ist also awesome.

I'm rocking that 2020 model G14. I think it needs a repaste but it runs anything I want to play fine. I would consider a 2023 model G14 with the extra v-ram if I found a good deal, but the 2024 models all seem lackluster at the price points.

There are 3 schools of thought I have on PC gaming:
1) Get a decent spec gaming desktop for use at home + something like a Legion Go or ROG Ally for portable gaming. You can also get a cheap 15" USB-C monitor and a Logitech K400 Plus for the Ally or Legion Go. I don't recommend a Steam Deck as a laptop replacement here.
2) Top spec Gaming laptop and be done with it.
3) Top spec gaming desktop and a low/medium tier (price conscious) laptop.
I've always done option 3 but this time, instead of buying a new desktop and or laptop (couldn't decide and the desktop could do 1080P gaming at medium-high), I got a Steam Deck instead. I probably should have waited for the ROG Ally. For most people, wasting money on a several thousand dollar premium gaming focused laptop wouldn't be worth it, even if that person planned on keeping it for 10+ years and could justify a use case beyond gaming.
