Razer's super power gaming laptop might be the do-everything device I've been waiting for
Until now, desktop PC gamers pretty much got all the fun. But thanks to the latest silicon chips, the top gaming laptops are more powerful than ever. Unfortunately, most of them are a little on the chunky side – not necessarily something you'd want to take with you. But Razer's all-new Razer Blade 14 is a 14-inch gaming laptop that's crammed into the chassis of something you'd expect to find in a coffee shop next to someone editing spreadsheets. In fact, it's almost the same weight and thickness as the latest MacBook Pro devices, but with more GPU muscle under the hood. At 15.7mm thick and weighing 1.63kg, the Blade 14 is not only Razer's slimmest 14-incher to date. This thing isn't just thin, it's carrying an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU and AMD's shiny new Ryzen AI 9 365 chip. That's more than enough to crunch through your game library and handle any productivity task on the side. Of course, it comes with AI chops as well. We're talking up to 50 TOPS of AI processing power, which is quite a lot for something of this size. The Razer Blade 14 has a 3K OLED display that doesn't have to beg for your attention. It's fast, vibrant, and G-SYNC-enabled for those who hate screen tearing. Between the 120Hz refresh rate and a snappy 0.2 ms response time, you'll see everything with precision. There's also an upgraded cooling set-up with a 'Thermal Hood' design, which sounds like it belongs on a Formula 1 car, if you ask me. The battery's had some love too – it's a 72WHr cell promising up to 11 hours of use. It's a nice nod to those who might be tempted to use this as an all-rounder laptop. Connectivity is fully covered. You're getting USB Type-C ports, HDMI 2.1, Wi-Fi 7, and even a MicroSD card reader for the creators in the crowd. The keyboard is fully RGB-customisable with Razer Chroma, because obviously it is. The whole thing is wrapped in anodised aluminium with a sand-blasted finish, so it looks slick and doesn't immediately smudge. If you're not feeling the 14-incher, Razer's also given the Blade 16 a little update, now with an RTX 5060 GPU. Same AMD Ryzen AI processor inside, same OLED screen, just a bigger canvas and more breathing room. The Blade 14 is available now at $2300/£2000 directly from Razer in the US, UK, and EU. The new Blade 16 configuration lands at $2400/£2100, and you'll find it in the same places.

New Razer Blade 14 gets thinner and is built for more than just gaming
This year's Razer Blade 14 will soon be here and sport a thinner design than its predecessors. Though thin in design, it commands a hefty starting price of $2,229 for the RTX 5060 model and $2,699 for the RTX 5070 variant. Alongside an Nvidia GPU, the Razer Blade 14 will pack an AMD Ryzen AI 9 CPU that's AI-ready thanks to its 50 TOPS and Copilot+ compatibility. You can kit the laptop with up to 64GB of RAM and 2TB of storage. The RAM is soldered in, but a spokesperson told us that the NVMe SSD slot is user-accessible if you want a larger hard drive. The skinnier laptop is 0.62 to 0.64 inches thick from its thinnest end to the thickest, and weighs just 3.59 pounds. Razer claims that it was able to shave down the Blade 14's profile without reducing power or battery life (retaining its 72Whr battery). Note that the RTX 5070 model of this laptop is thicker than the RTX 5060 variant. Razer redesigned the thermal shelf and cooling design, similar to what it did with the latest version of the Blade 16 gaming laptop. The ports are largely the same as last year's model, which includes a pair of USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, a 3.5mm audio jack and a proprietary power plug. There's also a microSD slot, which the previous model didn't have. At first glance, the Razer Blade 14 is a slightly smaller Blade 16, with the main difference being the microSD slot versus the full SD slot on the 16, and of course, the size. One other difference is that the Blade 14 will be available in white as well as matte black. The display is a 14-inch 3K 120Hz OLED that is Calman verified with a variety of color profiles. The keyboard is largely the same as last year's, though it now features a Copilot key. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Razer spokespeople highlighted that the Razer Blade 14 is more than just a gaming laptop. According to them, many of the Blade 14's features, like the display's color gamuts (sRGB and DCI-P3), are meant for content creators. All configurations of the new Razer Blade 14 are expected sometime in May. Razer is also releasing a cheaper version of the Blade 16 featuring the RTX 5060 for $2,399m which is also set to release later this month.

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.

Framework表示其客製化規格Laptop 13筆電因應美國新關稅政策移除部分處理器可選規格 (更新)
更新：Razer將2025年推出搭載NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50系列顯示卡的高階遊戲筆電Blade 16與Blade 18訂購頁面從美國官網下架，只剩下產品介紹頁面，目前僅保留入門款Blade 14維持銷售，但在美國地區以外官網仍可訂購Blade 16與Blade 18，顯然也是因應美國新關稅政策影響所作調整。 由於川普政府公布新關稅政策自4月5日生效，影響Framework原訂從4月9日預計開放預購的客製化規格Laptop 13筆電售價，因此Framework表示將從美國官網移除部分處理器可選規格，避免造成其產品最終以虧本形式銷售。 依照Framework公布消息，表示其產品定價是基於未針對台灣進口產品額外課稅的情況下制訂，因此一旦必須疊加額外增加稅金成本，將導致其以虧本形式銷售。 因此，Framework表示將取消包含Intel Core Ultra 5 125H、AMD Ryzen 5 7640U在內規格處理器選項，但仍保留Intel Core Ultra 7 155H、Core Ultra 7 165H，以及AMD Ryzen AI 300系列與部分Ryzen 7040系列規格處理器選擇 (但目前官網仍可選擇Ryzen 5 7640U處理器規格)。 Due to the new tariffs that came into effect on April 5th, we're temporarily pausing US sales on a few base Framework Laptop 13 systems (Ultra 5 125H and Ryzen 5 7640U). For now, these models will be removed from our US site. We will continue to provide updates as we have them. — Framework (@FrameworkPuter) April 7, 2025 Framework的作法主要在美國市場保留高階規格產品，但在其他市場銷售規格則不受影響。而Framework同時也表示其他消費品牌同樣採取類似作法，只是並未特別對外公開說明。 類似情形，先前公布Nintendo Switch 2的任天堂，目前也已經在美國市場暫停預購活動，表示將會針對關稅政策影響作評估，但強調仍會維持在今年6月5日於美國市場銷售。 其他同樣受關稅影響的品牌，則包含蘋果、三星等，其中不少在美國市場大量銷售產品都是在台灣、中國、越南、印度等地生產或組裝，在川普提出新關稅政策影響之下，可能造成在美國市場銷售價格大幅上漲。 更多 Meta將率先用於Instagram的青少年帳號系統帶到Facebook、Messenger服務 亞馬遜推出可生成長度達2分鐘、對應更多拍攝視角的自動生成影片內容模型Nova Reel 1.1 Google證實新款Google TV裝置遙控器都會加入可快速開啟免費電視節目內容的按鍵
