The highlight of this refresh of the much loved Razer Blade 15 is the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 series Laptop GPUs. And because these are much powerful GPUs, you also get a few display upgrades and options for higher refresh rates and higher resolutions.

The Razer Blade 15 will come in two models: Base Model and Advanced Model, which then offer further options in display and some other specifications. The 4K UHD displays are meant to be perfect for creative professionals, while the base FHD displays with very high refresh rate should work out for the gaming-enthusiast; while the middle 2K option gives you a good middle point between resolution and refresh rate.

The new Razer Blade 15 (2021) starts at $1699.99/€1799.99 and will be available for pre-order exclusively at Razer.com and Razer Store locations on January 12 and for purchase from select retailers starting January 26.
