He is probably trying that this should cost $999...which is expected from his habit of trolling all AMD Device thread.

This is one of the most unreliable laptops in mankind.

Batteries are used by a cheap brand in China that is known to explode

plenty of these experiences just google

@Suryasis Nothing against you. You post really good laptop deals but Razer products are known to be the gutter.

Many people in reddit, twiiter, real users all suffer from the blades breaking in less then a year and this is not accounting its super high costs too.

Deal can be good but the product itself is so terrible.

A simple google search can show why Razer is the worst laptop maker in the world.

The consensus seems to be they've had some issues in the past with reliability and poor service, but designs are great (and priced that way), so it's a roll of the dice.

It makes sense to me that these have issues though. They are extremely small and yet have super beefy parts in them. If we see other companies, major competitors, who make slim models but not reaching this size then I think that means something.

I am not saying they can't be good, but Razer doesn't even offer a decent warranty. Right? Like if something is being built so close to the edge, pushing performance and size to the limits then I would expect at least a couple of years of coverage. I know in California you can exercise some rights outside of what they tell you the warranty is but still. That is a struggle and not a guarantee.

I love the way they look and Razer has my favorite software out of Logitech/Corsair/Razer but I just don't trust their laptops. If next week they suddenly were in Costco with a long warranty while using a credit card purchase then I would feel different.

Pretty good specs, but only 8GB 3080 and probably lower wattage gpu, making this not great of a deal. It is a nice laptop chasis though. $1500 and I would be in with my amex deal, but for 1800, it is still too pricey.

The Battery on these new Razer laptops having 2 years 9f warranty. You can go to Razer site and see that. So, that probably implies they have improved the battery life.

I admire your faith in Razer, but the batteries used in the Blade 14 is sourced from the same place as the Blade 15 / 17 which are known to explosives pretty much.

The problem isn't just that UNLIKE ANY OTHER BRAND, you have 0 warranty from Razer, you RMA device it takes months and they don't even repair or replace it. They literally be like "Gonna charge you 2k+ and you have 0 aftersales support" They literally needed to make fake review accounts for their customer service.

Please for the love god buy anything else

Look at Suryasis's other deals as long as its not made by Razer it will have a warranty, a consumer right to get an RMA.

Best Buy literally stopped selling Blades in-store in Beverly Hills because of the number of returns they get off defective Blades, they are considered to be the least profitable laptop in Best Buy.

The g14 / g15 are better thin and light laptops then this one.

They are also cheaper and have aftersales support as well.

Asus is more reliable then Razer

Yes youtubers and reviewers that own the laptop for less then a year can give it positive reviews. Even though the 2020 Asus G14 has a known issue of USB-C plug destroying the Motherboard was the top laptop of 2020.

Long term usage, durability, sales support, and quality control.

This Razer Laptop and every other Razer laptop doesn't have it.
