Our Critique Luke Larsen gave high marks to the overhaul in 2025 of the RAZER 16 blade (8/10, Wired Recomds), largely thanks to its extremely thin footprint and its excellent keyboard. Razer does a great job with small details, such as the spacious glass pavement that is pleasant and responsive, the excellent adjustment and finish on the machined aluminum body, and the thin glasses that help the screen to stand out. There is a reason why Razer Blade 16 recently moved to the top of our favorite game laptops list.

The display varies depending on the version you choose. The 16 inch version we examined has a 240 Hz OLED screen that we really liked. With an excellent contrast and color saturation, with a quick response time that has made a big difference at these high image frequencies. The largest RAZER blade has an IPS screen instead of an OLED panel, but with a higher resolution of 3,840 x 2400 and the 240 Hz refreshment rate.

So what is the catch? In my opinion, laptops at reduced prices are a bit annoying. For the RAZER 16 blade, only the RTX 5060 and RTX 5070 versions are marked, and the two only have 8 GB of VRAM. We did not have the chance to test the mobile versions of these chips, but at the end of the office, I found that little memory was a limiting factor of performance, especially 1440p or more. Mobile GPUs are always a compromise, but you will not have the opportunity to upgrade, so it is important to carry out this on the first try. Of the two, I would go with the RTX 5070 version, which also makes the bump 32 GB of RAM for $ 400 in total.

Despite a higher price, I think that the Razer Blade 18 sale is more attractive. Although the RTX 5070 TI model is marked, I would be very happy if I had $ 4,000 or more to spend on a laptop with a Mobile RTX 5090. Even if the screen is not as pleasant, the performance must be high, as long as you have a fairly large backpack.
