do i need to buy this razer or asus rog strix g17 with 4060 and ryzen9 7845hx?

[@MichaelMarshall53]

I purchased the highest spec one with the 4k screen. I understand the price to performance ratio doesn't fit well with some but, some of us use our laptops professionally. I can't walk into a meeting with a thick gaming laptop. The razer gives you great power and the sleek professional design. I've always looked at razer's laptops as gaming laptops built for professionals.

[@ruslanvarakins3655]

Why cant you walk into a meeting with a beautiful gaming laptop??????????????????

[@Tony-1454]

I honestly don’t see the point of ever getting a laptop with a 4K screen, QHD looks so damn good and u still get all those beautiful frames, especially with a 3080ti, maybe with a 4080 it’ll be viable but for now getting a 4K gaming laptop is completely useless

I got the 3070 Ti version of this laptop. I struggled with the price but I've had 2 Blade 15's and they have been awesome so I stuck with Razer. Yeah it's not the best bang for your buck but it's an excellent well built laptop and the sound quality is incredible for a laptop.

[@xsmockjrx]

I pretty much have everything razer and I kinda want this laptop, but damn that pricetag is high....

[@Kopite4life12]

Hi, I am considering trading in my Razer Blade 2021 model for the 22 model. I appreciate the new design quirks. As for the keypad, do you think the larger keys are an improvement? Thanks

[@spinachpies]

Is Razer a rip off? The answer is ALWAYS yes. And I am a sucker for premium builds. Customer service is non existent for starters.

[@calebyan7975]

Well, I wouldn’t say ALWAYS. Definitely when referring to laptops, there are always better options. However, with their peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and headsets, they have great choices.

[@Heliosvector]

Agreed. It’s MASSIVELY overpriced. I would be fine paying higher than normal prices for say a design that solves problems like the S17, but this thing tries to be too thin, thermal throttled, has poor battery life, and has a forgettable keyboard. Yet they want 1000+ dollars more than it’s worth.

[@Heliosvector]

Did he turn off the GPU using the mux switch for the battery test? He didn’t specify.

[@praystation]

All my laptops are razer (well after my 2009 clevo d901c with 9800m gt sli). Razer customer service never disappoints.

[@chrisorr8601]

Hang on, idk what your experience with customer service has been, but has 2 issues with a 2018 blade 15 and both got resolved perfectly. First keyboard died, they paid for me to send it back, week later they return it (cable had just worked loose). Then after 4 years of use I got the battery bloat issue. They again paid for me to send it back (idk why or how, it wasn’t under warranty) and they ended up sending back a 2020 model cause they didn’t have the battery I needed. That took like 3 weeks but it’s excusable cause I had to go through like 3 different departments on the email chain

[@MrDashpilot]

Dude you just reviewed the exact 3 gaming laptops I’ve been looking at. I had the Alienware on order but just cancelled and bought the MSI. That saved me over a grand btw so thank you so much. Keep up the great work. Looking to upgrade the desktop next. I really like the vengeance you reviewed but not in a hurry. Can’t wait to see what else you review. Thanks again!!

[@ChiXreviewing]

Razer Blade 17 i7-12700H, RTX 3070Ti, QHD 240Hz With Gsync is wierdly the only combo that you should consider as it's perfectly slot into a category that makes it even the best-value-for-money option. RTX 3080Ti is to expenive for it's performance compared to GE76 and RTX 3060 is well Stupid for a 17inch laptop

[@JustinTechTips]

yeah I agree that 3060 is not going to get you much these days

[@Tony-1454]

In my opinion the rtx 3060 is perfect for 15 inch laptops with 1080p screens, for QHD you definitely need a 3070ti and above, even the 3070 doesn’t cut it

[@lucianolucihd6571]

One thing I think you should consider putting on your evaluation is the reselling value. If the longevity of the machine is higher it may not be bad for your bucks. This analysis could be very valuable for some people!

[@stephenm6058]

A great honest review. Little disappointed in the scores given the high price point of this machine. I feel like I'm more edging towards the raider ge76. But then again msi are bringing out a new titan. I still have my gt73 titan hence why I'm now ready to replace it with something newer.

[@JustinTechTips]

Yeah, stephen, that's my thought too. GE76 is just has so much going for it. Better thermals, the best performance, number pad, better price..

[@SilvaGoof]

@@JustinTechTips hey did you get a comparison between this laptops screen brightness compared to the msi GE76? im looking to buy the best one in performance with more screen resolution as i edit 80% of the time over gaming

[@SeemsLogical]

Look into the Lenovo Legion lineup. You can get some really high specs in the Legion 7 series. But best bang for your buck is the ASUS Strix Scar 17, which can be outfitted with a 3080 TI.

[@CaptainGunSkill]

@@JustinTechTips doesn’t look as good tho

[@jamesbaum1532]

Thank you for the review on this just picked one up the other day. Question though I plan on using this laptop more like a desktop in the sense that its going to be plugged into 3 monitors and likely never going to get unplugged from the charger. Would it be advantageous to remove the battery from the laptop and just allow it to run off the charger to help keep the battery from going to junk. Thank you for any reply in advance

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey James! Yes that is a good idea if not using the laptop unplugged. Battery experts suggest charging your laptop battery to 40%, then remove the battery for storage. This gives the battery sufficient charge to remain stable, without damaging the chemical composition of the lithium cell. The only downfall is if your power goes out and you forgot to save your work

[@JoeMaranophotography]

My laptop has almost always been plugged in at my desk for 2 years and hwinfo shows the battery wear at 0.1% so I wouldn't worry tbh.

[@PhanorColl]

I have the 2021 version and so far its been working super great, as for battery life, I can get around 3 sometimes 4 hours, heavy coding sessions, watching videos, browsing the web - NOT GAMING, I cant really complain about this machine, I really recommend it, if you want more battery life, get a smaller version or even one from the competition.

[@ChaosHellfire]

Really nice review with lots of information. Helped us a great deal deciding which laptop to get. Thanks a lot man!

[@bkids5054]

kind of a new gamer here. i was part of the 1980s nintendo christmas club. i had a nintendo, JE quarterback, rampage and rbi baseball i believe, along w duckhunt mario and OH the olympic running pad and game. it was a helluva christmas for my 2 brothers and i. anywas it made me a gamer for YEARS. i then went to ollege, had a fmaily, 2 girs, a wife, an exwife, a new gf, a mortgage, etc...just responsibilities. then when i turned 40 that nostalgia thing bit me like most 40 year olds... and i saw a video for DayZ...and I...FELL...IN...LOVE. i bought myself , being a busy dad, a nin-switch..and thaaaat did NOT do the trick for me. so i moved on to xbox, and that didnt scratch the itch. i bought a brand new surface pro 7 i7 last year, and pc pass for xbox, and that kind of scratched it. all along though, i was dreaming of REAL gaming on a REAL gaming machine. i started putting my dollars and cents away, and it would get used for...diapers, baby food, gas, bills... and i told myself..meh, its JUST a game. and i could live vicariously through my twitch and youtube gamers. Soursweet, JLK, TRMZ, Echelon1984, etc. all my DAYZ gamers. i, also, thought i could sidestep spending any REAL money by getting the NEWEST device, so i put my name in for a SteamDeck. i waited and waited and waited. got it, opened it, turned it on, DL DayZ...annnnnnnd F&%K if it was UN-SUPPORTED. i got it to run, but the mods didnt work right, the screen was small, needed a bunch of equipment to play MnK through my tv w/it. when ALLLL ALONG my gaming buddy darrell, who reallllly knows his stuff was saying dude, you NEED an actual processor. you need a Laptop or PC, this will not do it for you. and ya know what..he was right. so now, im sitting here w/ an xbox, a ps5, a switch, a PCpass top of the line surface pro i7, AND a brand-new less than 6 hours STEAM DECK. and ya know what...im STILL watching YT videos! STILL lonnnging for a PC or Laptop... so ..ENOUGH!!And ya know what...maybe my insurance WILL lapse, maybe my electric DOES GET shut off, maybe my kids DON'T have food to eat for EVERY meal, maybe my daughter DOESN'T have "diapersss", etc...but ya know what i WILL have?!? a brand new (or slightly used) computer with a REAL GPU, and a hefty pricetag. but im at my breaking point. which brings me here. I SERIOUSLY appreciate the time and effort and ridiculous honestly in which you present yourself and these items with in your videos. i do not feel like im being baited or lied to. i get a very honest feeling from your videos, and well all this is am EXTREMELY long-winded and ridiculous way to say...Thanks fella, i truly appreciate what you do! So, i havent completely figured out what i want..theres so much included, but i DO think, along with you at my side, i am well equipped to figure all that out. i know i want at least a 3050, and 8gb. speakers and FPS are not a HUGE deal for me. ive learned so much from you i feel like i owe you a few bucks as my teacher. So, i trek on, but from one gamer to another, seriously....thank you. thank you. thank you. THANK YOU. have a great day from Old Town, Maine, USA.

[@JustinTechTips]

Thank you BKids! I really appreciate the comment! I actually read all of that. Sounds like we have a lot in common. I'm divorced and remarried with 3 kids now. 2 biological and one step son.

Glad the videos have helped you!

I had the QHD version of 3080 ti for a few days. Bought it directly from Razer. Had really bad customer service. Came with dead pixel.

It's truly a mixed bag it does a lot so well does many things so wrong and that price... I will admit though Razer tends to have pretty good resell value down the line... Nice to see the 1440p stats those are really useful for this gen of laptop as that is the target resolution for most laptops lately Great content and very well covered information Any plans to look at any HP omen machines? In many ways it's like a more subdued budget Alienware especially the omen 17. I love the mechanical keyboard with per key lighting and secondary function lighting...

The 3080 4k display razer is still amazing but just got dead pixels on the 4k display one

[@acidinity]

I've never understood what's going on with Razer's overprice policies. They are not that good in comparison to other companies to justify such big differences... And the logo is not enough either, I wonder what kind of reunions they have at their headquarters to believe these prices are a good idea...

It’s the closest laptops that resembles a MacBook Pro, which is sleek, thin, powerful and built of quality materials, not plastic scrap that wont last past 3 years tops… the razer blade is thin, made of aluminum, pretty much as powerful as every other laptop, officially has the best windows laptop speakers, and even comes with a 4K 144hz screen option (which mine came with)…. 4k!!! On a 17 inch screen…. It’s pretty incredible.

Thank you for the review! I have some Razer products (Razer Kiyo and a wired mouse, don't remember the name, sorry and Razer Kraken headphones). I like the building quality, the design, but as you said - it's hard to recommend it to someone because it's quite expensive. I named three different devices that have the same issue - only if you want to invest money in the design and building quality - go for it. But if you want to save money - there are plenty of alternatives that will help you to make 3D or music or shoot a video with the same result. It is weird to see that more expensive doesn't always mean better in every aspect, at least these are my feelings about Razer's products in general.

Hey Santeno Super, good to see you again! Yeah they got up to a 3080Ti but they only have a tdp of 165 compared to the 175w of the new MSI GE76 and Alienware X17 R2

[@thematerwelon178]

Can you please do a review on the acer nitro 5 with rtx3050 and i5-11400H cpu? Seems like a really good deal?

[@thedropman]

finally home and I can watch this video.

[@JustinTechTips]

Thanks for stopping by Luis H !

Is there a review on the razor blade 15. I'm new to the channel

[@AdamsOyifi]

Just discovered your channel and I love the content already! ♥️

[@JustinTechTips]

Thanks Adam! Glad to have you on the channel!

[@romantia8327]

how is the battery life?

[@ubasta]

solid review! surprisingly low fan noise vs some other laptops

[@JustinTechTips]

I'm glad you liked it Some Guy!

[@aligoharmughal4952]

have to say, very underrated channel......Keep up the good Work 👍

[@JustinTechTips]

Thank you so much Ali Gohar Mughal! I really appreciate that! 🙂

[@Codyjs_]

The razor always goes on sale for cyber Monday.

How do we get the giveaway ?

Hey Shehry, the winner of each week's giveaway is announced at the end of each video

[@YUNGRAM3N]

the razer blade 17 is an amazing laptop, but i think the maxed out spec version is just not worth the price, considering the low tgp because of it's thin design and not to mention the heat from the 3080 ti, in my opinion i think the 3070 ti or the 3060 is the best option. (P.S typo laptops name at 7:13 just a friendly reminder lol)

[@JustinTechTips]

Woops! Can't believe I didn't notice that typo! 😂

[@conner_productions]

Yeah the price is high, but if you're looking at gaming and video editing it's really priced with the competition. 8gb of vram isn't cutting it in Davinci resolve anymore, and the 16gb 3080 options are all priced in the $3k range except the MSI GS66

[@ChiXreviewing]

If you using Davinci Resolve On a laptop, You should be reported for "Abusing" Your Laptop.

[@arniekuma]

Like he said though, you can get the better performing MSI GE76 for about $500 cheaper at the same specs

[@conner_productions]

@@arniekuma that's true, but the size is a thing as well

[@conner_productions]

That makes absolutely zero sense. 16gb of vram and a 3080ti will chew through davinci. You’re actually abusing it way more with gaming.

[@arniekuma]

@@conner_productions Oh yeah size is no issue for me I’m just concerned with how long the laptop will last me until I need an upgrade so power is my priority. I can see how a thick boi would be troublesome for people that wanna carry it around though

[@mikenyagawa3929]

i just like that this guy is honest with his own opinion.... looks like he is gonna be the next big thing in tech world!!

[@dirkclaessens1152]

Thanks for your review... It's the second one you delete from my list (x17 R2 also 🤣)... Honestly, I still like this one more than the other 2 due to it's design/build quality

[@JustinTechTips]

No Problem Dirk! Glad I could help! It is still a pretty awesome machine, but the faster GE76 is just better for several reasons this year

[@miamisener4511]

bought this today at $1000 off, so i’m hoping that means it’s well worth it 😅

[@ericzhu3708]

Hi Justin I have a 27 inch LG ultra gear, any suggestions for a monitor arm for it?

[@gauchesuedo]

Bruh my blade 15's speakers were worse than my old lenovo legion's.

[@mightyleg1439]

yes quiet fans nice touch thats a plus count em in

[@davidseychell]

i dont no this beast laptop but with 300 nits screan is crazy not good in 2022 normal 500 nits NO WAY

[@JustinTechTips]

Yeah David, I expected more from the screen considering how expensive this machine is

[@danielm5774]

I dont know what the nitts are for the ge76 qhd except that its not 500 and prob not even 400. With the weight of these and poor battery life i expect to be playing games inside at home or work in normal low lighting 100 percent of the time.

[@davidseychell]

exactly..or with miniled screen

[@johnmartin8031]

the cons aren't really a problem for me and i never care about the sound quality since i like to use headphones all the time

[@siddharths5989]

Man u deserve ton more subs !!! Ur quality of videos is par with top tech channels

[@JustinTechTips]

Thank you so much Siddharth S! I really appreciate that! 🙂

[@BeatsbySandr]

As a computer science student, this is definitely my dream laptop!

[@grumpyoldwizard]

I got the 15.6 version. I was willing to pay the price for the quality build. I anticipate it lasting for quite awhile. I also believe that it is a great Windows platform for gaming AND productivity. A Mac may do some things better, but it will never play games.

[@cemsengul16]

I am considering selling my 2021 Blade Advanced 3080 OLED. There is nothing wrong with the laptop but I don't like the performance difference between a desktop 3080 and a mobile version. Sure this new 17 inch with a 165 watt 3080 TI is awesome but it is still not on par with a regular desktop 3080 and there is now a 3090 TI.

[@tradingcards_eastgermany4183]

How much watt haf the 3080 mobile from the Razer?

[@zenbran]

Would you recommend this laptop or the MSI GE76?

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey ZenBran, that's a good question! After many days of testing all 3 of these top end machines, my vote definitely goes to the MSI GE76.

[@zenbran]

@@JustinTechTips thanks man. I tend to use my laptops on my lap would the MSI GE76 manage to stay cool enough so it’s not uncomfortable on my lap?

[@JustinTechTips]

Yes the bottom of it won't get too hot for comfort as long as the vents can somewhat breath.

[@zenbran]

@@JustinTechTips was that telegram thing legit or is that a scammer?

[@alanthomasgramont]

Review the new XPS Tower. It looks pretty good for the money.

[@prodigy455]

Seems like I did right with going with the blade 15 , on most of the scores I’m quite a few points ahead.

[@pisachasrinuan7960]

Hi JustIN, haven't watched laptop reviews for quite some time, your review is always great :) I am still very happy with my X17. It gets some dust now because I use it all the time (but I try to blow it every day though 😂) Razer Blade 17 looks gorgeous. Wow, the webcam is nice, crisp, and sharp. I like that they give good speakers too (I am using a BlueTooth speaker). But man, Razer's price tag is really something. Overall, my money is still on x17 for the Keyboard and Performance. I hope Dell improves the Webcam and Speaker (bro, the laptop is $3000+, there is no reason for them to have a bad part). I might be in the market again when we get x17 R3 or R4 update 😁

[@JustinTechTips]

Yeah Pisacha, I've got high hopes for the R3

[@marksadler4457]

Thank you for another good video. I'm still waffling between the MSI GE76/77 and the Alienware x17.

[@JustinTechTips]

Glad you liked it Mark! After many days of testing all 3 of the top new 12th gen laptops, my vote definitely goes to the MSI GE76. The benchmarks section of this video shows the new GE76 winning in almost every category. Also the secondary key illumination and and number pad and much cooler temps makes the GE76 a better by than the new X17 R2 even outside of benchmarks.

[@v5k456jh3]

Ge76 is king. Especially the thermals - they're miles ahead compared to x17.

[@Dave-es4ld]

Just started watching your videos. They are great! I am completely new to pc gaming and know nothing really. I want to start and move on from console! Is there any tips you can offer? I want to get something that doesn’t break the bank but gives me great graphics. I was told nvidia are great? Thanks a lot!

[@JustinTechTips]

Thanks Dave! I'm glad you're enjoying the content? You'll get more power for your money if you get a desktop like this one bestbuy.7tiv.net/JrYabe But if you're needing something more portable I would get a laptop like this one if you are on a budget bestbuy.7tiv.net/4eAYaL . If you've got the money though this is the fastest bang for your buck one that I've seen this year bit.ly/MSI_GE76_Raider_i7_Newegg

[@Dave-es4ld]

Thanks so much. I live in the. Uk so I don’t know if any of these apply. I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to me. I’ll take a look to see what you have sent! Thanks again

[@JustinTechTips]

Oh man that's a bummer. No Newegg in UK? They need to step up their game!

[@Dave-es4ld]

Uk has fallen behind! I definitely want to look at a pc rather than a laptop. I have the ps5 and series x but I want something that blows me away in graphics. Same time I don’t want it to cost the earth. Hope that makes sense ?

[@JustinTechTips]

What's your budget? CORSAIR services the UK and the Corsair Vengeance i7300 is my favorite 12th Gen prebuilt I've tested so far. It was incredibly fast yet also not too expensive. You can see my review for it below the Product link Corsair VENGEANCE i7300 i7 12700K: go.corsair.com/NKyBoN My Review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jH2vm2ZomKyja5Y

[@harrikangur]

300 nits with $3k+ laptop.. hilarious. Also no numpad in 17" size.

[@ChildOfSaturnMusic]

The Intel HX processors were just announced 2 days prior to this video being posted, which are supposed to be a major upgrade. I'm definitely waiting for those to hit the market.

[@LeeroyJNCOs]

Razer wasn't one of the brands announced by Intel to receive them this year, so could be a while until they show up in their laptops.

[@ChildOfSaturnMusic]

@@LeeroyJNCOs This is true. I can't speak for others, but personally it doesn't need to be a Razer to catch my interest. I'm curious what the reviews on the Lenovo, Asus and MSi will be, and hoping Alienware will have a new model coming up as well.

If you own a razer ,pray you dont have to go to repairs.......its a nightmare out there

I would really like to buy razer 17 for programming and game design. it's actually my favorite laptop so far

[@user-py7mz8oj7o]

hope they add HX processors

[@JustinTechTips]

Yeah for the price, I"m surprised they didn't already

[@BdelaCAS]

Wait so what’s the best alternative that he says is better a bit cheaper?

[@cemgulpunk]

Razer's build quality is awesome but for hardcore performance AW and MSI are always killing it.

[@Magicman637]

That's some sweet configuration right there🤯

[@carlosk8103]

That light bleed is horrible I know on IPS panels some expected and how much you get is a crap shoot even when we are talking about the same panel but damn... on a 4k laptop I expect better much better...

[@ryanrayne1710]

I am currently in the market for a 17-inch gaming laptop. I have a large budget and I am leaning toward the GS 76.
