Razer has unveiled its highly anticipated 2025 lineup of Razer Blade 16 and Razer Blade 18 gaming laptops, which are now exclusively available for purchase at Razer.com and Razer stores. These cutting-edge devices are set to begin shipping as early as late April. The Razer Blade 16 is available in three configurations: the RTX 5070 Ti model starts at $2,999.99, the RTX 5080 model at $3,499.99, and the top-tier RTX 5090 model at $4,499.99. Unfortunately, the Razer Blade 18 is currently out of stock.

Razer Blade laptops are renowned for their exceptional build quality, featuring a chassis crafted from a single piece of aluminum, designed to be both thin and lightweight for a gaming laptop. Razer's proprietary cooling technology, which includes a vacuum-sealed, liquid-filled copper vapor chamber, efficiently dissipates heat, allowing for such a sleek design. This high level of engineering, akin to that seen in Apple MacBook Pros, justifies the premium price of Razer Blade laptops compared to other mainstream brands.

We've reviewed an RTX 5090 mobile laptop.

Our benchmarks indicate that the RTX 5090 is the new leader among mobile GPUs, though the improvement over the RTX 4090 is modest, ranging from 5% to 10%. The introduction of DLSS 4 technology, however, significantly enhances performance.

RTX 5090 Mobile Review by Jacqueline Thomas

"If you're already equipped with a solid gaming laptop, the RTX 5090 might not justify an upgrade. The improvements over its predecessor are not substantial. However, for those holding out for a high-end gaming laptop upgrade, features like multi-frame generation and battery boost make Nvidia's latest a compelling choice."
