Not thunderbolt. That's a dealbreaker. I've run into multiple issues because everything else these days is a thunderbolt connection, so you end up having to buy adapters and proper wires for this previous generation usbc 3.1 type 2. It's a real pain in the a**, trust me.
Can't have it both ways... either inferior Intel CPU with Thunderbolt, or superior CPU AMD with no thunderbolt. I rather AMD.
While I do not own one, there are major battery bloating issues with razer laptops. Would highly recommend an extended warranty.
Was going to post the same. I would not purchase this even at half the price due to Razer's negligence with awful batteries used in these. Please do research in the Razer subreddit - a thread is created almost daily it seems with battery issues. It's not a matter of if it'll happen - it's when. Once the bloating starts it starts bending things like the touchpad (which might break) or lead to a battery fire which is very dangerous. As sexy as their laptops can be, they should not be having this issue at the price they cost.
This is a good investment since Razer already said the prices on their computers just keeps going up n up n up.
Yeah, the prices of their new ones. Your old tech isn't going to appreciate if other manufacturers are selling laptops with faster chips at the same prices.

Tell that to the guys on fb marketplace tryna offload their 4770k and 1060 rigs for $1K lololol
Never understood why these laptops are so much more expensive than other brands. On sale, you can find the same specs in other brands models for $400 cheaper. Is it all about the look of the razer?

They spend too much money on sponsorship and advertisement. You are paying for the brand name.
I had a few issues with this laptop. My first one the trackpad would stop working and I would need to do a hardware reset, it also has terrible keyboard backlighting issues. I am now on my 5th one and it still has the backlighting issues, plus now some of the keys are harder to press than other keys.

Also supports only single sided SSDs, so maxes out at 2TB. Why? Even Stealth had tall m2 connector.

It's a 3070 in a 14" they need to save space and heat.
Lol, there is enough space to put two of them on top of each other like in Blade 15. The smaller one is cheaper, by one cent or so.
