This was one of the videos I referenced when I picked up my x14. Awesome job detailing everything!

[safdarabbas]

I love how you give your opinion in the end of the video about which one would you choose instead of ending it with it depends like other guys

Blade 14 is an awesome machine. I've had the g15 for this year and I can tell you the build quality difference is insane. Its also quieter and doesn't get as hot

[MyronZhao]

In my opinion, the G14 is the clear winner. Even if price wasn't a concern, I wouldn't get the Blade 14 simply because of the 16gb RAM that's not upgradeable. The X14 even though it's thin, it's heavier and much larger than both of the other 2 laptops, looks more like a 15" laptop chassis size compared to the other two.

G14 advantages:
-Price
-Battery
-Upgradeable RAM, SSD, WIFI card (look under the SSD, it's there!)
-Screen aspect ratio 16:10
-Screen brightness
-Sound quality
-Keyboard typing experience
-Trackpad size and accuracy
-AMD smart shift and smart access memory is able to allocate power and ram between CPU and GPU to boost performance as needed

Hey Matthew, correction at 8:38, you can swap the Wi-Fi card on the g14 it’s just hidden underneath the ssd. Other than that amazing video 😄

I'm currently sporting a 2021 G14 myself and it's amazing. For me personally, i value battery life a lot, and on a small 14 inch laptop like this, it's kind of important. The whole point of getting a 14 inch is for its portability, meaning you can use it while you're out on the go, and that means you can't always have access to a power outlet, not to mention probably having to carry the power bricks for the Blade 14 and X14. I'd say if money wasn't an issue, then the Blade 14 is something to consider, but honestly, if you're spending that kind of money, there are probably better offerings out there, maybe not at 14 inches, but still. However, I don't really see the X14 as competition, considering its below average battery life, and bigger size. I don't see a lot of people prioritizing better build quality over the other very significant negatives.

Razorblade looks absolutely stunning, period! But it's really soooo damn expensive that I think I never even tried checking it out on Amazon tbh lol. My money would be with the G14 as you do get portability with performance. Personally I wanna have a laptop that I can carry around with ease and play without compromising much as I have a desktop at home to take care of the really intense stuffs.

Hey Matt, you can swap the Wi-Fi card in the G14 too, it’s under the ssd

[Unhacker]

I love the Blade series, and my Blade 13 Stealth performed very well and is hyper portable *but* eventually the battery ballooned up to where the lid no longer closes flat. It's a tragedy that I hope they've addressed by now.

Hello Matthew,
First of all, thank you very much for your impressive reviews.
Second, I want to know your opinion personally about this laptop versus its counterpart, Strix G513RW (6900HX, 3070TI). I do prefer Zephyrus G15 for some reason such as its display and so on, though I should still know how much difference there is between these two laptops In Terms of Gaming Performance? if that's no that much, Zephyrus could still remain the right choice for me.
I'll appreciate your time if your respond, sir.

[aaronxu]

Definitely the G14, as long as there is a gray version with Anime Matrix that goes up to rx6800s.

[allanleo]

Got the blade for a month now with white dbrand skin. Everything you said about it is spot on! No regrets.

Hello Matthew,
I want to know your opinion personally about Zephyrus G503RW (6900HS, 3070TI) versus its counterpart, Strix G513RW (6900HX, 3070TI). I myself do prefer Zephyrus G15 for some reason such as its display and its RAM upgradibility to 48GB (while G513 only supports up to 32GB of RAM), though I should still know how much difference there is between these two laptops In Terms of Gaming Performance??
if that's not that much, Zephyrus could still remain the right choice for me.

Thanks

[stampede]

I'm on my 2nd Blade and still love the simplistic but premium feel. I will agree the G14 is obviously the best choice if you aren't dead set on one of the other designs. I'd be happy with any of them really.

[yadav-r]

Awesome, helped me with my decision-making. Thanks a lot.

[miinajordantiff]

Id pick the g14 but man QC issues are really there, had to return 2 because of lid curving and not closing right and the screen having a white ring around it

[guitarlover]

@Matthew, I was thinking if there is a way to quantify or test the structural strength of Laptop Hinges. So that end customers could make a more informed decision about their purchase. Because Hinges and batteries are usually the things that break easily for an end user. Could you please make a video explaining Types of Hinges that we see in Laptops and which ones are the strongest and which ones we should avoid at all cost .

Got a G14 2021 version, so awesome absolutely love it

[austinfrosty]

I love the x14! I have an x15 & absolutely love it. They really are the best laptops.

[Moonkitty.]

I just picked up the 3080ti Blade 14. Absolutely love it! Dropped a 2TB drive in it as soon as it arrived.
