The OLED screen is really beautiful. Cyberpunk and Hitman 3 really stand out on a screen like this. Razer’s updates to Synapse are very much welcomed. They added updated profiles for performance and fan speed. There’s a new EQ section that works okay, also. Synapse does forget to register the laptop and I have to restart the laptop. The Blade 16 is a bit overpriced, but I understood what I was getting into.

This is by far the best gaming laptop I have ever owned. The OLED display paired with gsync, an RTX 4080 a I9 14900hx and 32gb of ram makes this gaming machine a true joy. Really the only other option I would recommend is the OLED g16, but you will be loosing performance with the underpowered TGP and the I9 ultra processor. I just can’t rave enough about the new OLED laptop displays, they are amazing!!

You get what you pay for, a bit more but it’s justified. Awesome laptop for gaming and anything under the sun.

I bought nearly every 4090 laptop and returned them all. THIS was the overall winner. The lighting effects are something I didn’t think I would enjoy this much but no one compares to Razer when it comes to keyboard lighting effects. Individual lights and the wider array of color should be the standard. The screen is rich and saturated like a Samsung laptop if that’s something that is important to you. Battery life sucks of course cause its a gaming laptop duh. The fans aren’t annoyingly loud at full blast like others I’ve tried. I spent a year and went through around 10 laptops and decided on this. Wait for a renewed version and saved $1500 to take the edge off the price. Its worth it.

Laptop is powerful and it is feels. Under load the front panel below the screen is heats up stronger. But cooling system copes with everything. Touchpad shall be do differently. When you will be printing you often will be accidentally touching with your hand, and it will be changing text pointer to random place and it annoying. But it can be “fixed” via disable “Tap with a single finger to single-click” option in Touchpad system settings. And therefore, the touchpad should be like on MacBook with full clickable space and not only in the lower part.
Sometimes after you close the lid and move the laptop to sleep state it continues some intensive work for a while. It noticeable by intensified cooling system. Maybe it Windows 11 peculiarity. Sometimes after it went from sleep state you will get strange periodically screen freezes is about 1.5 – 2 seconds during some time. During these freezes some anomaly behavior in task manager is not found. It’s very strange and unusual especially after macOS and Ubuntu use experience for a long time. But I’m sure the freezes have nothing to do with hardware and this is solely a system and software problem and may be to do with my settings changes.

This is about my 12th laptop… I’m an older software developer who general prefers gaming/desktop-replacement laptops so I can do most of my work on the road including running demanding simulators and gaming software at acceptable frame rates. Anyway, I’ve had a few. This is the best one I’ve ever had! The build quality and design rivals Apple. The performance is stellar. With the mobile 4080, I can even run most games in 4K at over 120FPS. 1440 is >300FPS all day. The fans are a bit noticeable when under load, a bit higher pitched than I am used to, but acceptable and nothing unexpected. The keyboard tactile feedback/feel is not great, that is really the only con I have on this. A bit more travel and switch sensitivity would be better. I got the 16″, because most ~17″-18″ laptops are huge and unwieldy to travel with. But this is so efficiently designed, that I would have been happy with even the 18″ as a travel laptop and it probably would fit in most backpacks too. The 16″ is extremely mobile and is roughly the same size dimensions as my old Dell XPS 15. Well done Razer, well done nVidia.

First impressions: I didn’t realize this until I received the laptop, but the up and down arrow keys are cut in half. I use these keys extensively for character movement and now having to retrain with the reduction in size of the up and down keys. Also, there is not enough real estate between the keys and touch pad to rest my palm so I keep hitting the touch pad while playing so I had to disable the touchpad. I’m finding Synapse a little tedious to use to change some of my settings. The sound is amazing though! Still trying to get it all set up.
