    Thank you. Do you know if they make one for an 18" laptop?

      I haven't seen any that big. There are other brands that claim to be compatible with 17" laptops but they are all the same size as the one I have.

        Thanks, Derek. And your review of the Razer Blade 18 was as thorough as I have seen.

    No GPU Blender testing or Unreal engine that makes review basically useless to me.
    Don't understand also the critic to the size. That is a choice by the user not a defect, some prefer bigger screen sizes, other don't. That is like me criticizing a 14" laptop for being 14".

    No numpad, and oily smudges – my 2013 Clevo looked unprofessional just a couple months after use – 2 no no's.
    The fact that silent mode is not really silent is also a disappointment specially with the sound system investment with 6 speakers. I am often dumbfounded by the incoherence of this industry. They could have appealed to sound, movie players and editors.

    So instead of making a multi propose laptop with a broad user potential they choose to cater to a less large set.

      Alex, this comment is disrespectful to our work, stop it! You also keep pointing out negative aspects and complaining in all your comments. What's the point?

    Is not agreeing now disrespectful?
    It is also a bit strange "keep pointing negative aspects" when the author criticizes the laptop size while i defend there is no reason to criticize this laptop size since might catter to people with different preferences. So who is being unreasonable with criticism?

    This was my recent post about Asus ROG 18
    "Thanks. A very interesting model.

    Interesting that i did not realised that these 18" have same width as a 17.3" it is just the 16:10 format that makes them 18". So they have more depth/height.
    Hope less expensive 18" with less beefy hardware came out."

    So i think you need to review your "You also keep pointing out negative aspects and complaining in all your comments."

      You're saying that the review is useless to you because it doesn't include two specific benchmarks. That was disrespectful.

        For 2024, Razer is adding a 4k display with 165Hz.

        The 16 inch version is getting a 240hz 2560×1600 Oled.
