So in front of me I have a gaming laptop
0:02
This gaming laptop actually claims to be the smallest, the thinnest 15 inch gaming laptop ever
0:10
And it's from Razer, and I think that's exciting, I think it's interesting
0:13
It is one of the downsides of gaming laptops. They tend to be bulky in order to fit in those heavy duty graphics that you're looking for
0:21
Thin and light, and gaming to this point haven't really gone together in a package that has made sense
0:26
Razer claims to have fixed that. Here is the specification. It's the Blade 15.6 inch and here you can see the spec line
0:33
There is the 144Hz gaming version of the panel of the display which is only 1080p
0:39
And then there's the one I have here. I'm just a junkie for resolution. This is the 4K version UHD at 60Hz. This 4K version is also a touch screen if that's important to you
0:49
Including the 512GB SSD GTX 1070 baked in as well. Oh, you know what? They might be right. Look how thin this box is. Holy smokes
0:59
Very thin laptop box. Power brick is no joke. That's a bit of a powerhouse
1:05
And you can see that it's proprietary. Ooh. Oh, my. Simple branding, simple product design
1:13
Matte black finish. It kind of looks like a tool. It looks industrial. I like that
1:18
Ooh. Nice and simple. You see the keyboard layout, the speaker location
1:23
What a perfect location for speakers, why not? A larger trackpad as well, I noticed straight away
1:29
GTX 1070 Max-Q design, and of course that 8th gen Core i7
1:34
which is six cores 12 threads up to 4 gigahertz Holy smokes on your laptop Can you really complain Probably not And even though it 15 inches in display size
1:45
it's actually smaller than the previous version, 14 inch razor blade laptop
1:51
So they've packed more into less here. We have Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.1, HDMI
1:57
a mini display port and a Kensington lock. And then over on the left
2:01
we have the power port, two more USB 3.1s and an audio jack
2:06
Ooh. Very sturdy though. Immediately, we get the green backlighting. It is quite brilliant, as you can see there
2:14
On the sides, we have this crazy slim bezel. And even the top, which houses the front facing camera, is pretty slim
2:22
comparative to what I've seen in the market. And the trackpad, very smooth texture, as well as a precise response
2:29
I am impressed at this point. This is also a touch screen so I could just reach up at any point and touch the display if I choose to
2:37
Alright so let's get a taste for this display. This video, I mean, you've obviously seen this video right
2:43
You can't skip this vid- look at that- look at that thing! Ooh, so far, display 4K, oh man
2:56
That's an image. Now the speakers, I don't know, are they good or...? Let's turn it up. Mmm
3:01
with this or not liking the speaker so much right now let me load up some SoundCloud
3:07
I was sort of put them in like the average territory I think people are gonna be more inclined to use headsets anyways is it mirrors with is it what the game on Does these speakers sound a bit better In PUBG here these speakers sound a little bit better
3:27
We're going to see what this thing is like in its wheelhouse. This is PUBG in 4K
3:31
3840. UHD. One thing I can guarantee you guys is that this is not going to last long
3:40
Oh, wow, that's a nice little weapon straight away. I'll take that
3:46
Let's go find someone. 86 alive. The sound effects, they sound so much better
3:51
than these speakers did with music. Someone's in a vehicle. Where is that? Oh
4:10
Look at this maniac. Oh! He got me. That's why a lot of people are gravitating towards Razer in the first place
4:21
They want the GPU and so on. But as I said before, there's different ways you can spec up this laptop to suit however you see yourself using it
4:29
Starting at 1899 with a 1080p 60Hz display and then all the way up to the model that I tested here, 2899 for the 15.6 4K display
4:39
display and then the 144 hertz version in the middle. Something to mention the
4:44
weight of the device does change depending on your screen choice as well
4:48
The entry model actually the most portable It gaming it for gamers it can game but at the same time it sort of has the appeal that like a Macbook does for creative professionals where it a simple design It not screaming at you i a gamer you don just game on air that becomes your main laptop you spend a
5:07
fortune on it so do you want it to only distinguish one part of you even though you do all these other
5:12
things on that system it's your work laptop it's your creative laptop and it's your gaming laptop
5:17
and i think razor from a design and brand perspective has done a good job of finding
5:22
that balance. So there you have it, the brand new blade. I have a link in the
5:26
description if you want to learn more about the specs or see the other models. It's power when you need it, it's simplicity when you don't, it's kind of a
