Razer Blade 14 2024 vs. Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 2024 - an easy win!(?)

hey a small suggestion for graphs like these 10:50 , i think it would be easier to compare if the same bar graph shows results of both laptops together. Otherwise we have to go back and forth between different clips

Alex, you should do whatever is fastest for you to produce. After all, time is money. We can always scroll back.

[@t-yu]

@twystedhumour That's dumb lol why ever spend any time on visuals or the viewing quality then? It's a constructive piece of feedback where the implementation would be pretty obviously objectively superior. Not doing it merely because it might save time is silly. Hopefully you don't extend that logic to literally any other forms of production and I really hope you don't run a business lol

I just returned the 2024 mercury razer 14 for the 4070 g14. My reasoning was mainly battery life, I wanted a work notebook with ability to game if I need it on the road as at Home I have razer 18, Legion i9 pro and Desktop. The Blade is built great, the screen I liked and loved that I could usbc charge from either side, the negative was weight, price, and 2hrs less battery life. If Razer would fix it so you can turn the DGPU off when on Battery, I believe it would be very close and I would swap back to the Blade. Great review.

[@mbloof1]

Thanks for the great video. Both systems are clearly top-of-the-line 14" for 2024. It appears that BOTH OEM's stepped up their game on these systems however went different directions on the design trade offs. RAM and storage are items that OEM's charge an INSANE premiums for so having ether of them soldered is usually a BIG NEGATIVE. Battery life/run time 'in the wild' is usually at or near the top of the feature list/requirements. While in the past I've gone with Razer and last year went G14 however in 2024 any decision might not be as easy. I'd agree with the other commenter that side-by-side graphs would be helpful here namely in noise and (missing) heat. I'd like to see how much warmer/cooler each system runs under load (gaming) given the different cooling solutions. IMHO: for my use cases the G14 would get the nod (with reservations).

Good review but benchmark visuals need to be changed to show a side by side comparison. I've seen a handful of reviews from this channel and this is always a pain point - no one wants to pause, rewind and go forward to compare benchmarks between the two systems - put them on the same screen. Also the percentage based benchmark using a system as the denominator is kinda useless imo but maybe i'm just missing the utility. Otherwise great video!

The razer weight is the same as the G16 not the g14 if you are willing to carry that you might as well go to the g16 and get a bigger screen and more TDP on the GPU which would probably erase the performance difference. Also for what the razer is charging You could actually buy the 4080 version of the g16. so this comparison is interesting but in terms of price and weight doesn't hold up. Portability for me is about the weight not the size. All these laptops can fit in a backpack . It is just a matter of how heavy that bag will be.

[@NotebookcheckReviews]

Of course, there are a lot of things to base a comparison of off. But most people will primarily decide between these because of the overall size I would assume!

Having a smaller form factor, lighter weight, and crazy battery life are super important for bringing this to the office without needing to charge for the day. For those needing more power, just go for last years G14. Comes with 4080/4090 and a slot of ram while still being roughly the same size as the Blade 14 but better performer and lighter weight and better battery

[@michaelwondergem7723]

Factor in price and the G14 is the winner. The extra power the Blade gives the 4070 doesn't mean very much as performance usually maxes about at 100W. I would rather take the oled and 120hz. Neither laptop really strikes me as a 240hz machine.

That's a sound argument, but as you can see from our testing, the Blade is A LOT faster. For some reason, it can properly take advantage of its higher wattage 4070!

[@ravesied5003]

I'd take the G14 due to its price-to-performance ratio and the fact that you can turn off the dgpu unlike with the Blades. But I'll be waiting for this year's Legion 5 14 and see how it holds up against the G14 seeing as it was close to perfect last year already.

G14 for the portability and affordibility. 9% of the edge for the Razer is not worth it.

[@kartikeyaaryam7352]

Got the g14 it’s a beast

[@PadeJuan]

Also g14 is undercutting Razer by $700. Best deal in gaming imo

do you want to go with a company known for poor reliability or a company known for shtty warranty support

[@grlgaming1913]

which company you are talking about

[@Ginger30161]

@@grlgaming1913 are you saying Asus has improved their warranty support?

[@Totomuncher]

Be great if you could actually buy this ASUS ROG Config! Sold out all the time!

[@Mutio86]

Hopefully we'll see some USB-C 240W devices soon. No need for some extra connector s**t anymore.

[@NotebookcheckReviews]

Do not count on it anytime soon. According to our information from different manufacturers, 240W via USB-C needs too much voltage right now, making it very inefficient, resulting in too much heat at the connector. That is why you do not see anyone using it!

[@rchgmer863]

Alex man ur the best fr I'm such a fan

[@RichCompMan]

The true battle is the price, $2000 vs $2700, The G14 is clearly the winner. Is the Razer really worth 700 dollars more? I don't think so and I had them both.

[@NotebookcheckReviews]

Is it really that much in the US? The G14 is really "just" 2k in this config?

[@RichCompMan]

@NotebookcheckReviews Yes Sir, I have the bestbuy version.

[@RichCompMan]

Also, the oled Blade 16 with 4090, 2TB SSD, 32GB Ram and 14th gen i9 is $1000 more that the equally spec'd Asus G16. Asus really accomplished what the MSI Stealth serries couldn't do vs Razer.

[@mahdigholizadeh4033]

When will you review the new legion pro 5 (14900hx)?

[@kasualkombat6404]

Asus really screwed up this time. They had incredible advantage against the Blade 14 in every aspect and they just threw it all away. Terrible decisions all around.

[@JohnRambo-hq1xy]

If blade 14 has oled screen ...that would be good

[@Psi-du2lw]

F*ck soldered ram, I have the money but I hate my option being closed and being told what's good for me by some random company. Using Zephyrus g16 2023 rn, but I'll probably move away from asus next year.

Razr makes the best laptops period.

[@Unicornpirate]

That 140w TGP for the RTX 4070 in the Razer means nothing. Channels like Jarrod's Tech has shown that pumping more wattage into the RTX 4050, 4060, and 4070 laptop cards don't offer any performance advantage. Razer is just promoting that as a marketing tool. That's how they get customers...through marketing and aesthetics. I have never trusted the brand as they have horrible quality control issues. Sure the laptop might look good from the outside, but they always have problems with things like battery bloat, keys sticking, cooling issues, display issues, etc. I had one of their mice back in 2014 develop a double click issue 3 months after purchase. Replaced it under warranty and the new one did the same one month after purchase. Switched to Logitech and never looked back and that mouse is still working perfectly today. Avoid Razer products people

razer has synapse so that is a FAIL. worst software made by man lol. ASUS has poor reliability according to the laptop repair shops that have channels on youtube. And ASUS has horrible customer service. To say ASUS does not care about their customers is to imply they even notice you.

[@NotebookcheckReviews]

Are you speaking from personal experience?

[@1992arri]

Well never buy directly at ASUS.. Buy their products from retailers. And yes.. Synapse is horrible

[@lgnfve]

@@NotebookcheckReviews on razer synapse, yes. on ASUS, watch NorthridgeFix channel. He is regarded by most youtube tech people as the expert much like Louis Rossmann. NorthridgeFix has mentioned by name many times on Jay's channel JayzTwoCents. I have no dog in this fight than the idea these channels give recommendations removed from the long term use of the product. a few channels mention all the problems they have with razer software even with test laptops. Would you buy a car with out knowing the long term reliability of it ? I have never seen a reviewer say to avoid a certain model or brand. so all tech is equally reliable... hmmmmm
