A little nugget buried in this one is the changes they made to the keyboard. It is noticeably more tactile and less mushy. Game changer, hope they bring this to the 16 and 18. Thanks for covering those important details!

Razers value just keeps getting worse each year. Original blade 14 with 3060 was 1799. Now with 4060 it’s 600 dollars more. You can get a 4080 G14 for that money

I was expecting $2100 for the 4070 knowing their prices. But man, they went way too high and still haven't fixed the battery bloating issues.

What i dont understand is a gaminglaptop without ethernet port. Makes no sense to me. Also an sd card reader would be nice in this 14inch model at least

I wish Razer had a trade in program so I can swap out my 2021 model. Great video as always!!

Why is the bottom bezel still so THICK? Why is the power brick (it really is a brick) so big? Why is that damn cable still so thick and inflexible? You could put 20kV through this.
And finally, how loud are the fans at idle? How warm does it get during web browins, office work? The previous models were so stupidly hot and noisy.
Oh and why are your fans so dusty already?

Hello, just wondering since it void the warranty to install Linux, does it support Linux (Debian or anything else) well ? If not, what drivers are missing ? Thanks !

I’m Looking for a compact laptop for travel and light gaming when overseas out of the UK, Trying to decide between the razer 14 or Asus zenbook 14 pro oled and I’d be hooking it up to a monitor. Look forward to the full review.

I like that you have the 4060, .im wondering is there any real difference for gaming between the 4070 and the 4060 im guessing very little difference

[theachilles]

Between the MSI stealth 14 and Razer Blade 14 which one would you recommend honestly? Without the price factor

[TheBlackLakeSiren]

Ive been looking for the perfect laptop to be able to play baldurs gate 3 on ultra settings especially as someone who mods their games.

What do you think about the razer core x chroma?

[ternedo]

Its crazy how they pack this performance into this slim and sleek of a chassis... all other comparably specced laptops are just titanic sized behemoths of RGB and noise

[madsisak]

in regards to second key functions, I got a small tip for ya. I selected per key RBG in the razer synapse software, and remapped all - and + F row keys to red and blue, so I can easily identify the keys which have second functions, to change screen brightness, volume or keyboard lightning lvls. In the dark.

[ragaadin]

can you test the radeon 780m in your next review with 5600mhz ram? just curious how it perform, especially gaming on battery.

[Rht]

Hey mash
Should i go for asus g16 or dell g16
Plus for rtx 4060 or 70

[arprasad]

Looking forward for comparison with g14

I like your video, clean no dsiturbing music etc

[RockyScenes]

Thanks for this - which screwdriver is required to open it?

[garndragoner]

What mouse do you use with your laptop, can you recommend one? I am thinking about buying the logitech anywhere 3s.

Its worth it, nobody manages the fan noise in a sturdy thin and light laptop like razer, I'm surprised the speakers are good also, 140watts is pointless though and not a selling point
