The Razer Blade 14 (2022) is a gaming laptop that stuffs a lot of horsepower into a compact chassis. The notebook measures just 12.59″ x 8.66″ x 0.66″ and weighs just 3.92 pounds, but it houses an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX octa-core processor, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM, and a 1TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD.

Razer is taking pre-orders for the new Razer Blade 14 for $2000 and up, and the laptop should begin shipping March 17, 2022.

 

For the starting price you’ll get a model with a 1920 x 1080 pixel IPS LCD display with a 144 Hz refresh rate and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics with 6GB of GDDR6 RAM, 16GB of memory, and a 1TB SSD.

But Razer will also offer models with beefier specs including an 2560 x 1440 pixel 165 Hz display panel and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3080 Ti graphics options, but those upgrades will cost you: a top-of-the-line model sells for $3500.

Each model has slim bezels around the display (4.7mm), matte screens, and support for AMD FreeSync.

The laptops feature backlit keyboards with per-key RGB lighting and support for Razer’s Chroma lighting effects. Razer says the keycaps on this year’s model are also larger than the previous-gen, with no more half-sized Shift keys, for example. The notebook also has a glass-covered Precision touchpad.

Razer has updated the camera to a 1080p camera with support for Windows Hello face recognition, and the laptops has stereo speakers and support for THX Spatial Audio.

Ports include:

  • 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (with DisplayPort 1.4 and USB Power Delivery support)
  • 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A
  • 1 x HDMI 2.1
  • 1 x 3.5mm combo audio jack
  • 1 x power port (320W)

Wireless capabilities include support for WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, and the Razer Blade 14 (2022) is powered by a 61.6Whr battery and comes with a 230W power supply.

If you’re hoping to perform any upgrades, Razer notes that the SSD is user replaceable, but the 16GB of RAM is soldered to the motherboard.
