Alternative: Preorder the New Razer Blade Laptops

Razer's 2025 gaming laptops are also available for preorder. The Razer Blade 16 and Razer Blade 18 offer Intel and Ryzen processor options (depending on the model) and RTX 5000-series mobile GPUs (RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5080, and RTX 5090). Preorders include bonus accessories.

Razer Blade laptops are renowned for their premium build quality. Crafted from a single piece of aluminum, they are exceptionally thin and light, thanks to Razer's proprietary cooling system incorporating a vacuum-sealed, liquid-filled copper vapor chamber. This sophisticated engineering justifies their higher price point compared to mainstream competitors.
