When it comes to gaming laptops, Razer’s Blade series is the crème de la crème. It offers lots of power, excellent video options thanks to NVIDIA graphics, and sleek, ultra-convenient designs. But all of that power comes at a hefty price, usually. At least, that is the case when there are no deals to be had, but today, there are. It’s an excellent time to score an incredible gaming laptop to play some of the hottest titles out right now. You can save big on the Razer Blade series, from the Blade 14 to the Blade 18. For example, the Razer Blade 16 is usually $3,599, but today it’s $400 off — down to $3,199 . Depending on which model you’re after, you can save anywhere from $300 to $500, but these deals are only valid until April 27, so don’t wait around.
Starting with the Razer Blade 14 , you get an impressive Windows 11 gaming laptop with a 14-inch QHD+ 240Hz display, AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, all for $2,000. Normally $2,400, you’re saving $400 with that deal. But it’s not the only Razer Blade model on sale, and you can pretty much pick your size and configuration based on how large you want your gaming laptop and how much power you want tucked inside. Bigger isn’t always necessarily better. But regardless of what size you choose, we regularly give Razer’s Blade series high marks during hands-on time.
If you think you want a bigger laptop, these discounts mean you don’t have to spend too much more, which is always a big plus. By comparison, the Razer Blade 18 has an 18-inch QHD+ 240Hz display, Intel Core i9 processor, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM for $2,899, which is $300 off the MSRP: $3,199.
These systems should be able to run games like Baldur’s Gate 3, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Helldivers 2, and Diablo 4 on high settings with decent to solid framerates. So, if you want to upgrade to play some of the titles mentioned above, you’re in good hands here.
These deals are only valid until April 27, so if you see something you like and have the money, I’d recommend ordering relatively soon. The high refresh rate of most of these laptop displays, the loads of power under the hood and the sleek designs of the Blade Series mean you’ll be working or playing on some truly incredible machines. It helps that you can save a bunch of money, too.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
