I came across this earlier today, and part of me wants one, but I think a bigger part of me doesn't. I am sure it was a ton of work to get this done, and congrats on that. I'm curious as to why you chose Razer as a partner in this (though I don't know who else I would recommend), and why a laptop? My experience. In my last start-up we bought 4 Razer Blades, well, we actually bought two, but ended up going through 4 machines before we got two working ones! And when I say "two working ones", one of those has a faulty camera, so only 1 actually fully working machines of 4. So, you can understand my feelings when I say "never again will I buy any Razer product". But our current consideration, as we're looking at buying a few more machines is, do we really need laptops as our core development device? We're looking at getting desktops, and cheaper laptops for if we want to do some coding while we're on the train, or travelling or whatever. We find we are rarely doing heavy lifting work when we're not at the office. For what I assume is similar cost, we can get a nice small underpowered for our needs laptop, and a suitable desktop. Does anybody else see the market going in this direction? |
On a laptop I prefer to spend that weight and energy budget elsewhere.
And I believe the current gen (AMD 6000 & Intel 12'th gen) of CPUs (paired with as much RAM as possible) is perfect for this pattern. Both have good iGPUs, and USB4/Thunderbolt.
Too bad OEM are sacrificing quality on other parts like the keyboard.
