2025 Razer Blade 18 Review

The Razer Blade 18 gets a redesign with improved cooling and longer key travel this year in addition to an update to the excellent Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU and your choice of NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti, 5080 and 5090 GPUs. It has a dual mode 500 nit wide gamut IPS display that does 4K+ at 240Hz and FHD+ at 440Hz. It has a per key RGB keyboard with number pad, Thunderbolt 5, ample ports, upgradable internals and the usual CNC aluminum chassis with an anodized black finish. As ever, it’s expensive, but given price increases from other brands in 2025, the price delta isn’t as high vs. competitors like the ASUS ROG Strix Scar 18 and Alienware 18 Area-51 that are currently priced similarly in the US.
