Razer's new Blade 14 laptops are outfitted with RTX 5000 series cards
Razer is back with a refresh of the Blade 14 laptop and it's the thinnest 14-inch model in the company's history. It measures just 15.7mm at its slimmest point and weighs just over three pounds. This makes it an ideal computer for on-the-go gaming.
To that end, these laptops feature the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5000 series GPUs. Buyers can spec the Blade 14 out with up to the RTX 5070. This pairs with NVIDIA DLSS 4 tech to provide "the highest quality gaming experience possible in a 14-inch" laptop.
They are also outfitted with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor that can achieve up to 50 TOPS. It comes with a bunch of AI applications that take advantage of that processor, like Copilot+, Recall, Live Captions and Cocreate.
The Blade 14 goes up to 64GB of RAM and includes a 72 WHr battery that should last around 11 hours before requiring a charge. That's a pretty decent metric for a laptop this powerful. The 3K OLED display offers a 120Hz refresh rate and a 0.2ms response time.
There's a MicroSD slot, two USB-C ports and a traditional HDMI 2.1 port. The Razer 14 integrates with wireless standards like Bluetooth 5.4 and Wi-Fi 7. The laptop even includes a newly designed ventilation system for better performance. The exterior is made from T6-grade aluminum and features a sand-blasted texture and an anodized matte finish.
It's available for purchase right now and comes in black and gray colorways. Pricing starts at $2,300, but that one comes with just 16GB of RAM and the RTX 5060 GPU.
The Blade 16 laptop is now available in a new configuration that features the RTX 5060 GPU. The company also recently revealed the biggest sibling of the bunch, the Blade 18. That one goes all the way up to the RTX 5090. If you buy something through a link in this article, we may earn commission.

Nvidia RTX 5050 laptop GPU specs leak — here's the first laptops getting it
Nvidia's RTX 5050 GPU is becoming more of a reality, as the rumored graphics card has shown up once again — this time in upcoming Acer gaming laptops. In Acer's GPU spec sheet for gaming laptops in 2025, the company lists several Acer Nitro systems with multiple RTX 50-series GPUs, from an RTX 5070 Ti to an RTX 5060. However, the listings also include RTX 5050 mobile graphics cards, including the TGP (Total Graphics Power) and clock speeds. According to the sheet, the RTX 5050 laptop GPU will offer up to 100W TGP (115W max graphics power) along with up to 2,550MHz clock speeds (2,650MHz with PredatorSense boost OC). However, as VideoCardz notes, there are different configurations showing various specs. Currently, the RTX 5050 listings have been taken down on Acer's sheet, meaning these configurations may not be final — so take this all in with a pinch of salt. That said, if accurate, these are the gaming laptops equipped with an RTX 5050 we can expect: Other Nitro laptops with more RTX 5050 GPU configurations were also spotted, from 50W TGP (60W max) with 1,500MHz (up to 1,600MHz) clock speeds to 80W TGP (95W max) with 2,212MHz (up to 2,650MHz) clock speeds. This doesn't seem like much, especially when compared to the might of RTX 5090 gaming laptops, but we could see DLSS 4 put to good use. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Notably, other specs aren't shown, such as the GPU's video memory or CUDA core count. However, previous Lenovo Legion 5 and Lenovo LOQ 15 leaks sporting RTX 5050 laptop GPUs revealed the graphics card would deliver 8GB GDDR7 VRAM, meaning its graphics memory is up to speed with the rest of the RTX 50-series family (and similar to the RTX 5060 and the lower-end RTX 5060 Ti with 8GB VRAM.). The laptop listings have since been taken down, and there's no word on launch dates or pricing. Since Nvidia has yet to officially announce its RTX 5050 GPU, there's no telling when the latest graphics card will arrive — and whether there will be a desktop variant. If Team Green does deliver an RTX 5050, expect budget-friendly gaming performance bolstered by DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Gen. It aims to replace RTX 4050 gaming laptops, and considering the performance bumps we've seen in RTX 5060 gaming laptops, Nvidia's low-end graphics card could benefit from Nvidia's AI trickery — especially if prices are pocket-friendly. It may not be long until we learn all we need to know about Nvidia's RTX 5050 GPUs (in gaming laptops and possible desktops), but in the meantime, check out our RTX 5060 Ti review to see how DLSS 4 shines.

Your next iPhone could cost substantially more — Trump threatens 25% tariff
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. President Donald Trump really wants Apple to make iPhones in the United States. Apple attempted to get around the tariffs on goods made in China by moving much of its iPhone manufacturing to India. However, that doesn't appear to be good enough for the President, as he said he would impose "a Tariff of at least 25%" on iPhones made outside of the country. "I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhone's that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform (typos included). "If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S. Thank your for your attention to this matter!" Trump recently posted that he "had a little problem with Tim Cook," in response to the Cupertino-based company moving production to India instead of the U.S. Currently, goods made in India are subject to the 10% import tariff that applies to all countries. This is substantially lower than the 30% tax applied to goods from China. Presumably, if Trump imposes a 25% additional tariff on iPhones imported to the U.S., it would be on top of the 10% already there. He said, "at least," which means the fee to import iPhones could be even higher. There's a lot of uncertainty for Apple about importing iPhones to the U.S. While it might be unrealistic to move all production stateside, it may also be the only way Apple can avoid massive fees — fees that will inevitably be passed onto consumers looking for one of the best iPhones. I pixel-peeped the world's fastest gaming monitor — after testing 610Hz, real-life feels laggy I tested the MSI Titan 18 HX — the power is wild, the price is wilder I played 5 games on the RTX 5060 — is this budget GPU actually enough?

Nvidia's rumored gaming laptop APU just spotted in new leak — what we know
The gigantic Computex convention just ended, but some things were missing from the overstuffed event, including Nvidia's first-ever consumer-grade laptop CPU. Nvidia showcased a lot at Computex 2025, including an RTX-powered AI avatar and several RTX 5060 laptops and desktops. MSI even showcased the MS-C931, which features the Nvidia GB10 ARM 'superchip', but that is meant for AI applications and not for everyday use. Unfortunately, we didn't see the rumored gaming laptop APU. Instead, our first look is coming from the YouTuber Moore's Law is Dead, who highlighted the APU in a recent video. In the video (around 40 minutes), Moore's Law shows an image of the new APU that is purportedly an engineering sample of the new silicon, attached to at least eight memory modules. The sample hints at an AMD Strix Halo-esque configuration with an onboard iGPU and a TDP of 80 to 120 watts. Likely, Nvidia's APU will be on an ARM device with a CPU allegedly developed by MediaTek. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. This type of integrated build is likely to be the future of gaming laptops. We can see how well it works with the AMD APU in the Asus ROG Flow Z13. There, we see that dedicated graphics have been ditched in favor of an integrated powerhouse in the Ryzen AI Max 390. Beyond powerful graphics, having it all integrated and quick access to LPDDR means that laptops utilizing this silicon will be more battery efficient, something gaming laptops have lacked until now. Plus, it builds toward a stronger handheld gaming experience as more handheld gaming PCs are likely to feature this kind of architecture. For another hint, the Nintendo Switch 2, which launches next week on June 5, features a custom Nvidia Tegra chip that has already shown how DLSS can extract higher performance out of games. According to the Moore's Law source, the Nvidia APU is expected to launch either late this year or in early 2026, which aligns with previous rumors that suggested we would see this new APU in 2025.
