WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.240
Swing it's a blade and AMD has sponsored this video to have a look at it

00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.800
There we go as is expected Razer's packaging is very nice

00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:18.160
And it's even a bit green now go green with Razer soy ink eco-friendly nature. I guess it's good

00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:20.600
You can eat

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:27.680
There we go For gamers by gamers. Oh wow

00:00:28.680 --> 00:00:34.960
All right, let's have a look here plug it in turn it on oh and it has a webcam switch

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:41.720
I really like those it's the rules you include stickers they go on everyone has to comply business team not happy right now

00:00:41.720 --> 00:00:47.540
Oh wait I want to grab my microfiber cloth cuz I got fingerprints on it, but they also include a microfiber cloth

00:00:47.540 --> 00:00:52.840
This does seem pretty necessary as an inclusion as well because even though this matte black finish does look really cool

00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:58.760
It also is a massive fingerprint magnet, which is a bit too bad for a 14-inch laptop the IO one

00:00:58.760 --> 00:01:03.680
This is actually pretty decent. So on the right hand side. We have Thunderbolt 4. Wait. No, no

00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:11.760
USB 4 which is basically the same thing, but this is an AMD laptop USB type a full-size HDMI

00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:21.080
2.1 other side we have headphone microphone combo jack another USB 4 full-size type a and that's where we plug in our power adapter

00:01:21.080 --> 00:01:28.120
I know it's fully expected with razor laptop, but dang it does feel good like twist is here

00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:35.800
This new razor blade has titanium inside of it to make it extra extra stiff and yep, that's

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:45.600
That's a really really stiff laptop I am not surprised in the slightest razor has been making really really high-quality chassis for a long time much longer than

00:01:45.880 --> 00:01:53.000
Basically every other Windows OEM one thing that I just noticed that I really like is that even though they do have this stupid sticker

00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:56.760
Right here that tells you all of the stuff is a little tab. So oh

00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:02.200
All of that's gone. Love it. There's nothing worse when you have one of those great big stickers right here

00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:05.840
And it it just never comes all the way off. Do we do it?

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:13.080
Yeah First thing I can see easily is that this display is fantastic. It's 240 Hertz

00:02:13.200 --> 00:02:19.760
So gaming on it gonna be great and also it is it's not 1440p. It's 1600 p

00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:26.760
So that's the 16 by 10 version of 1440p, which is absolutely perfect for a laptop like this

00:02:26.760 --> 00:02:33.160
I love it so much that laptop makers have moved towards 16 by 10 displays that are

00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:41.280
1600 p high refresh rate it is Incredible and also incredible is the color accuracy of this thing in SDR

00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:44.600
The color accuracy of this display is 1.3

00:02:46.040 --> 00:02:50.800
That is exceptional you expect less than two for professional color work

00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:56.160
So that means that if you want to be doing video editing or photo editing or stuff like that on this display

00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:01.000
You can 100% trust that the colors that you see are the actual colors

00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.880
Also great is the brightness razor says this can do 500 nits and we measured it at

00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:13.480
526 so full marks there excellent this right here has MHC to profile tags bit nerdy

00:03:13.880 --> 00:03:19.040
tangent in the past on a Windows laptop you just have to select a color space and

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:23.600
Hope for the best whatever your content is gets mapped to that

00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:27.800
So say that your display like this one right here is able to cover all of DC IP 3

00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:32.440
So if you have SDR content, which doesn't cover as many colors. It's going to get

00:03:32.720 --> 00:03:39.840
over saturated to fit into that DC IP 3 color space going back to the MHC to profile

00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:43.440
Windows now knows the capabilities of this display

00:03:43.440 --> 00:03:50.920
So it's able to take what the app wants what the display can do and figure out the most accurate way to put those together

00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:55.480
This is something that Apple has been doing for a while with their Mac books

00:03:55.560 --> 00:04:02.320
But it's very difficult on a Windows ecosystem because so many displays every single display needs its own profile

00:04:02.440 --> 00:04:06.680
So if you're making more than like four laptops, it's a lot of them. That said though

00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:10.800
This right here is one of the very first ones that comes with that color mapping

00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:14.400
So you can trust it you can trust it quite a bit also awesome

00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:20.440
The performance of this thing in here. We have a Ryzen 9 89 45 HS

00:04:20.440 --> 00:04:27.360
Which is a course 16 threads and it has the AI recreate AI you can see it AI right now

00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:33.280
We can show off this AI my going in here if you go to manage camera integrated camera right here

00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:37.040
We have background effects heck. Yeah, so this right here

00:04:37.080 --> 00:04:40.960
You're only able to do it within Windows if you have an NPU

00:04:40.960 --> 00:04:44.720
So that's a neural processing unit and it does AI stuff for you

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.080
If you don't care so much about just blurring the background or having auto eye contact

00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:52.960
Which I feel really strange using but

00:04:53.520 --> 00:05:00.400
Anyway, you use AI to do that But also if you're in Photoshop or Lightroom the NPU is going to be doing that

00:05:00.760 --> 00:05:07.160
Offloading that processing from your CPU or your GPU that means we have better battery life things run smoother

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:10.880
It's overall just good. It's too bad that so many people have just

00:05:12.080 --> 00:05:17.080
Take an AI and driven into the ground because in stuff like this. It's actually pretty nice

00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:21.640
NPU you want it AI in your doorbell? Maybe not

00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:31.080
In here, we also have 32 gigabytes of 5600 mega transfer per second RAM a 1 terabyte Samsung NVMe SSD

00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:37.320
Wi-Fi 7 from Qualcomm. So that is going to be the extra fast Wi-Fi

00:05:37.320 --> 00:05:46.280
So you can have so many bits traveling over the air at once and also an RTX 4070 and this is a very very fast 4070

00:05:46.280 --> 00:05:51.160
Up to 140 watts now. You don't get a whole lot above

00:05:51.880 --> 00:05:57.960
90 100 watts on these but at the same time faster is faster and this one's really really fast. Also, there's

00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:05.560
AMD Radeon integrated graphics the 780m you can use that a few like going an airplane and want to play a 2d platformer

00:06:05.640 --> 00:06:07.800
While on battery for a couple hours you play some game

00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:12.440
You guys want to see some games? Yeah, we're here full screen recording

00:06:13.400 --> 00:06:19.560
And like Rocket League is not a demanding game But at the same time we're easily getting over 200 FPS

00:06:20.200 --> 00:06:23.880
And this is working just great the latency of the display

00:06:25.400 --> 00:06:33.240
It's really really good unsurprisingly at 240 Hertz gaming display is very very good for gaming. No, I scored it. Oh, wow

00:06:34.440 --> 00:06:36.760
In 10 kilometer per hour goal. Yeah

00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:39.480
12

00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:47.880
What else do you want to play cyberpunk or valheim 22 Gigabyte update dot valheim it is

00:06:49.640 --> 00:06:54.840
Oh, yeah, this is running great. Look since we're walking along here bam 180 degrees

00:06:55.400 --> 00:06:59.400
Bam that display is instant. We are only getting 70 FPS

00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:05.320
But we do have it maxed out This is one of those displays where you can actually like see what you're doing while you're flicking like

00:07:06.280 --> 00:07:15.320
Aside from valheim our Labs did test this cyberpunk 2077. They were able to get a hundred and ten FPS f128 23

00:07:16.440 --> 00:07:21.640
166 FPS and total war hammer was 78 which means this thing goes

00:07:22.840 --> 00:07:27.000
Pretty freaking fast and while we did talk about the keyboard being nice for gaming

00:07:27.080 --> 00:07:29.640
We haven't talked about it as just a thing to type on

00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:40.840
It's not bad, which is pretty much a compliment for razor

00:07:41.320 --> 00:07:46.600
It's not perfect. So like if we look right here, there is a fair bit of key deflection

00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:53.400
So if I push on the side, I can basically get that key cap down below the chassis before it actuates

00:07:53.960 --> 00:07:57.560
Almost the larger problem is that it's not super consistent

00:07:57.640 --> 00:08:01.560
So some of these keys seem to be a little bit stiffer than the others

00:08:01.960 --> 00:08:05.960
Which can make it kind of difficult to get used to it

00:08:06.280 --> 00:08:12.040
That said if your primary use is gaming, it's really good for that. The action is super fast

00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:14.520
So if you want to do like super duper quick like

00:08:15.880 --> 00:08:21.080
You can do that sort of a thing Below the keyboard though is our massive touchpad

00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:27.800
And this is an area that razor has just been absolutely killing it for years and years massive touchpad

00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:34.680
Tracking's accurate. It's really really nice to just use. It's one of the best on the market. Good job

00:08:37.400 --> 00:08:43.480
It sounds very clear But I suspect that there's going to be no low end when the drop hits

00:08:43.800 --> 00:08:50.440
It sounds really nice and wide like they do have that staging from thx, which is appreciated here, but

00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:57.640
It's not bad. It's not bad. It's not super loud and there's

00:08:58.280 --> 00:09:01.720
Very little in the way of bass, but at the same time

00:09:02.680 --> 00:09:04.680
It's clear. It's not distorting

00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:10.440
So good job overall up next is our webcam. It's a 1080p webcam

00:09:10.520 --> 00:09:16.520
So good stuff there and almost more importantly it has a little switch on it. So you can just fully disable it

00:09:17.160 --> 00:09:23.080
Absolutely love that turn her back on and it looks pretty decent. It's doing quite a good job of exposing for my face

00:09:23.640 --> 00:09:26.040
Let's turn around here and see if it still exposes for my face

00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:31.800
Oh, it's struggling pretty hard, but in fairness it is pointed directly at a studio light

00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:37.160
Move around here Figure it out. Figure it out. Come on

00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:43.560
There we go, it's sorted in it. It's getting the color temperature

00:09:44.200 --> 00:09:48.040
A little bit strange like I'm I'm kind of sickly looking at the moment

00:09:48.520 --> 00:09:52.920
But if if if if we figure it out, it's come on. Come on. Come on

00:09:54.280 --> 00:09:56.680
There we go. I gave it a shake and that looks good again

00:09:57.640 --> 00:10:00.440
Overall, it's quite good, but sometimes it does seem to get confused

00:10:00.920 --> 00:10:05.560
805 screws later that are all the same size and we are in and unsurprisingly

00:10:06.280 --> 00:10:13.240
massive vapor chamber This thing has been very well cooled getting 140 watts out of a GPU

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.120
On a 14 inch device is incredibly impressive and the only real way to do that

00:10:19.400 --> 00:10:25.160
Vapor chamber and this one Is massive all the way around here up along there

00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:31.400
Down the sides. We've got our fins right there that exhaust out the back and two great big fans

00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:33.480
I'm all surprised that there isn't

00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:37.640
Oh my god, holy crap

00:10:38.520 --> 00:10:45.080
Razer you have done it. I was really not expecting to see upgradeable memory in here. It is something that is just

00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:51.400
Dying out almost completely especially on compact and powerful 14 inch laptops

00:10:52.040 --> 00:10:58.120
Massive props. It's so good guys also upgradeable. We've got our SSD right there and our wi-fi card over here

00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:02.120
Which is awesome. So the stuff that you expect to be able to replace on a laptop is actually

00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:08.920
Very replaceable and very easy on this one right here. Now down below. We have our 68 watt hour battery, which is just

00:11:09.560 --> 00:11:13.560
Excellent It's not the most battery that you can get in this sort of a class

00:11:13.640 --> 00:11:17.000
But you are kind of trading off the extra GPU horsepower

00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:20.360
For just the space that this battery is able to take up

00:11:20.760 --> 00:11:24.440
Now razor claims that you're able to get over 10 hours of battery life on this thing

00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:31.080
Although that said in our Labs testing our endurance test ran for six hours and 55 minutes. So

00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:40.840
Seven ish hours is pretty good Just not the 10 that razor said one final thing that I missed before is that this does have Windows

00:11:40.920 --> 00:11:44.600
Hello facial recognition. It's a little ir blasters right there

00:11:44.920 --> 00:11:48.440
Which is just the best way to get into a Windows laptop

00:11:48.520 --> 00:11:52.680
You just open it up. It's easier face and boomity boom you are in

00:11:53.160 --> 00:11:57.960
Well, not here because I didn't set it up, but you get the picture now the tough question though

00:11:58.920 --> 00:12:03.080
Do you actually want one of these? It is a really great laptop

00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:06.920
I do really like the razor blade 14, but it starts at

00:12:07.640 --> 00:12:14.520
$2,200 for the 4060 version and this one that we have been showing off with the 4070 and the 32 gigabytes of RAM

00:12:15.400 --> 00:12:20.920
is $2,700 Now this is a sponsored video. So we're not going to be making any

00:12:21.640 --> 00:12:28.920
value judgments here So you can do that for yourself overall though. This thing is a fantastically built Windows machine

00:12:28.920 --> 00:12:35.560
That is great for content creation and gaming and huge. Thanks to AMD for sponsoring this video. Thanks guys

00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:42.760
And thank you the viewer for watching this video hit like get subscribed and just have a great old day. See you later
