Hey, even gamers need a bit of security now and then. The Asus ROG Flow X13 is a svelte, barely-there 2.9 pounds, 11.8 x 8.7 x 0.6 inches, but it’s also a 13-inch system compared to these 15.6-inch laptops. Weighing 4.4 pounds and measuring 14 x 9.3 x 0.7 inches, the Blade 15 is lighter and slimmer than both the Alienware m15 R4 (5 pounds, 14.2 x 10.9 x 0.7~0.8 inches) and the MSI GE76 Raider (6.4 pounds, 15.6 x 10.6 x 1.1 inches). Somehow, Razer continues to be one of the lightest and thinnest gaming laptops in the game.
Below the keyboard sits the palm rest with a fairly large touchpad in the center. The keyboard is flanked by a pair of speakers - the right one houses the power button at the very top. The effect is magnified when the screen is off. Speaking of the keys, the Chroma-lit board glitters like a close, yet oh-so-far galaxy in the inky blackness of the keyboard deck. The lowest-priced system is $1,299 and comes equipped with half the storage capacity, an Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti GPU with 6GB of video memory, and a 1080p display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Razer’s most powerful Base Model costs $2,199 and has a 2.3-GHz Intel Core i7-10875H processor, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, an Intel UHD Graphics GPU, a RTX 3070 with 8GB of VRAM, and a QHD (2560 x 1440) screen with a 165Hz refresh rate. The “entry-level” model costs $2,199 and has half the RAM and storage with an RTX 2070 Super Max-Q with 8GB of VRAM and a 1080p display with a 360Hz refresh rate. An additional $400 gets you a 4K OLED panel with a 60Hz refresh rate. It’s equipped with a 2.3-GHz Intel Core i7-10875H processor, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, an Intel UHD Graphics GPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 GPU with 16GB of VRAM, a 15.6-inch, QHD (2560 x 1440) display with a 240Hz refresh rate. I reviewed an iteration of the Advanced Model that costs $2,899. The Razer Blade 15 is available in two flavors: Base and Advanced Model. Razer Blade 15 Advanced Model 2021 (1TB 32GB RAM) at Amazon for $2,999.99.Razer Blade 15 pricing and configurations It’s a tad pricey and the keyboard is a bit mushy, but if you’re in the market for a potent gaming powerhouse that has earned its way onto our best gaming laptops page, you’ll be hard-pressed to outdo the Blade 15. Plus, you’ve got a display with a high refresh rate, good battery life and a few security features.
