RAZER BLADE 2014 REVIEW

I feel spoiled. Ever since I started playing games on the new Razer Blade gaming laptop, I've had a tough time enjoying them practically anywhere else. My TV and my desktop PC only display games at 1080p, but the Blade's 14-inch, 3200 x 1800 screen is practically like looking through a window.

With the stylings of a midnight-black MacBook and powerful components you’d normally only find in a much thicker, uglier gaming machine, the 14-inch Razer Blade was the rare portable computer that lets you play games without looking like a geek. Now, it can also let you play them with incredible fidelity.

But as addicted as I am to the high-def experience, I don’t know if I’d pay upwards of $2,199 for Razer’s latest PC. Last year, its $1,799 predecessor struck an incredible balance between work and play — one that sadly hasn’t been replicated here.

From the outside, the 2014 Razer Blade looks practically identical to last year's model. That’s a good thing: it means it has the same fantastic build quality, with a matte-black aluminum unibody frame that manages to be subtle, refined, and delightfully ostentatious all at the same time. From a distance the Blade might simply look like a black MacBook Pro, but the laptop has a distinct vibe up-close, with laser-green light shooting out of its crisply cut keys and ridges on the lid that evoke a cobra ready to strike. It’s also a rather minimalist machine, particularly when it comes to ports: you’ll find three blazing-fast USB 3.0 sockets, headset and HDMI jacks, but still no Ethernet or SD card slot despite our wishes the last time around.

Open up that familiar lid, and you’ll find the Blade’s gorgeous new display. The screen isn't quite as crisp as a Retina MacBook Pro and loses a bit of brightness if you look at it from an off-angle, but the pixel-dense 3200 x 1800 panel is still pretty great. It's a high-quality touchscreen now, too, primed for the Windows 8.1 user interface, so you can just reach up and swipe between the apps and photos that fill the beautiful display. Incredibly, the new touchscreen makes the machine only a single millimeter thicker. It’s still slightly slimmer than the MacBook Pro with Retina display. Also, Razer rebalanced the laptop's hinge to compensate for the weight. You can lift the lid with a single finger when it's lying flat on a surface, something I can't say for my MacBook Air.

The truly incredible thing about the Blade, though, is that Razer stuffed enough horsepower into the tiny laptop to actually play games at that full 3200 x 1800 resolution. Not the most demanding, resource-intensive games that the PC platform has to offer, mind you: you won't be running Crysis 3 at native resolution, nor The Witcher 2, but most normal games look and play amazing on the system and you can run many of them at the near-4K resolution. For instance, the 2.2GHz Intel Core i7-4702HQ processor and Nvidia GeForce GTX 870M graphics in the Blade let me playTomb Raider, Max Payne 3, and Battlefield 4 at 3200 x 1800 and medium detail. The results are incredible.

Out of all the visual upgrades that PCs have ever offered my games, the resolution bump to 3200 x 1800 is my favorite by a country mile. There's nothing quite like seeing the texture in the rocks, the trees, the weaponry, the clothing that characters wear. It made me want to play these games all over again, like the first time I rediscovered my favorite music through a set of audiophile headphones. Everything looks more lifelike at 3200 x 1800 resolution, particularly because the high pixel density smooths out the jagged edges common to demanding 3D games. And with less-demanding games like Borderlands 2 and Mirror's Edge, you can turn practically all the settings up for a truly incredible experience.

But before you run out and buy a new Blade, let's talk about the elephant in the room: not everything plays nicely with that 3200 x 1800 resolution. Older games like Portal 2 weren't designed for screens this crisp, and their artwork doesn't hold up under close scrutiny. It's a little bit like when HDTVs were first introduced and newscasters realized they needed to do a more careful job with their makeup. And unfortunately, some recently released games are just too demanding to run with both high resolution and the artwork that would let you appreciate them at high resolution, like BioShock Infinite.

That could pose a problem with future games too. While you can turn down games like BioShock and Crysis 3 to 1080p and use the laptop's extra headroom to crank up the level of detail, not all games will properly fill the screen unless you also switch your Windows desktop resolution to 1080p. That’s a bug: Razer says a fix is underway. And because 1080p isn't the screen's native resolution, you'll need to spend some of that graphical muscle on anti-aliasing to get rid of jagged edges you wouldn't normally see.

And like last year's Blade, the laptop gets seriously hot if you crank all the settings up. There's a new cooling system that directs the heat away from the all-important WASD keys, but I still had extremely sweaty palms after a single hour of gaming due to the way the anodized aluminum frame conducts heat.

Hardcore PC gamers will anticipate and negotiate these issues, but not everyone wants to spend their time tweaking things to look and feel right. And even if you’re not gaming, you’ll run into issues with Windows applications that look blurry or unreadably tiny. Internet Explorer looks great, but Google Chrome is a bit of mess. High-res photos and videos look fantastic, but the interfaces to actually flip through them may be ugly or unusable if software companies haven’t updated them to support high-density screens. There doesn’t seem to be any shortage of new high-res laptops and tablets coming out, though, so hopefully that problem will eventually go away.

What won’t get better is the new Blade’s sub-par battery life. While last year's model lasted 6 hours and 49 minutes on our Verge Battery Test, the 2014 edition was a full two hours shy at 4 hours, 48 minutes in all. When I integrated the Blade into my actual workday, writing stories and answering emails with a little music in the background, I barely made it through four hours on a charge. Though Razer's custom power adapter remains delightfully portable, you’re still just as screwed if you leave it at home before hopping on the train to work.

It’s a shame, too, because otherwise this is the best laptop that Razer’s ever built. The keyboard feels more responsive somehow, even if it’s a tad stiff to start, and the trackpad’s two dedicated buttons are clickier and more comfortable to press compared to their shallow predecessors. Though pinch-to-zoom detection on the trackpad is still a bit overzealous, it’s smooth and glassy when simply flinging the cursor around, closer than ever to the high bar set by Apple’s MacBook Air. Even the speakers provide a surprisingly clear, crisp, and wide audio field thanks to freshly tuned Dolby software.

WEIRD GADGETS OF 2014

While the biggest trends at this year’s CES were wearables, curved TVs and smarter homes and cars, there was plenty of room in Las Vegas for wonderfully weird gizmos. We’re talking about projectors on wheels, iPhone tasers, and high-tech thighmasters. We even found a 3D food printer. Behold the wildest and wackiest products at CES 2014.

Sen.se Mother

Even Joan Crawford wasn’t this creepy. The Sen.se Mother connects to your home network and keeps track of what you eat, steps you take and where your kids are, all the while looking at you with its green glowing eyes. The Mother is available for preorder for $222.

Yellow Jacket iPhone Taser Case

This one’s all the buzz. Built into this unassuming iPhone case is a taser that delivers 650,000 volts to any would-be assailant. It will cost $149. Just make sure they’re legal where you live.

TrewGrip Keyboard

The keyboard for aspiring accordion players, the TrewGrip is a Bluetooth keyboard that attaches to your smartphone or small tablet, but has its keys on the backside, making you type by feel. According to the company, the reach-around TrewGrip is more ergonomic and allows for faster typing than a traditional keyboard. That may be, but we might stick with Ryan Seacrest’s Typo case.

Touchscreen-Friendly Elektra Nails

Ladies, don’t you just hate it when your fingernails get in the way of your smartphone? Elektra’s glue-on nails can be detected by a touchscreen display, letting you type messages with stylus-like accuracy. Even better, you can paint them any color you choose. Take that, Lee press-ons!

Singing, Dancing Plush Obama Doll

Meet the gift for the tea partier who has everything. Plug Barack into a phone or other music device, and watch him dance and sing your favorite tunes. Better, this toy made by Plush Pals can also be used as a speakerphone, giving new meaning to the phrase “the President’s on the line.”

Kooky Keecker Projector on Wheels

Now why didn’t we think of this? The Kooky Keecker is a 1080p projector on wheels, so you can take your shows wherever you go. Not only can you watch movies using this $5,000 projector, but you can also play games, as it runs Android 4.2. You can drive this gadget around using an Android app, or even have it automatically follow you. That’s one way to cast a huge shadow.

Inmotion SCV Personal Transporter

The Segway never caught on, but that hasn’t stopped others from trying. Inmotion’s SCV R1 personal transporter is about half the size and half the price of Steve Wozniak’s preferred mode of transportation, and we dig the Lamborghini-style tail lights. We had such a fun time wheeling around on the SCV, we didn’t want to stop.

Tao WellShell

Pay attention, Suzanne Somers. Keep your thighs toned by squeezing the Tao WellShell between your hands or legs; this squishable fitness gadget measures the force of your press, and records it on a smartphone app. Unlike the ThighMaster of old, the WellShell is much more portable, and can be used for a number of different isometric exercises.

ChefJet 3D Food Printer

Cooking your own food is so last year. 3D System’s ChefJet is a printer that can create edible three-dimensional objects out of sugar, from candy and cake toppings to decorations and pretty much anything you can make on a 3D printer. But before you let all that sugar rush to your head, know that the ChefJet costs $5,000.

PrioVR Gaming Body Suit

Resistance is futile. Once you strap into Yei Technology’s full-body Prio Virtual Reality gaming accessory, your PlayStation 4 controller will seem like an Atari joystick. That’s because this suit, which covers your arms and legs, translates your movements into whatever character you’re playing in a game, making for a much more immersive experience. The cost of this awesomeness? $499.
