Problems, problems, problems

I have this to compare and see if an upgrade is worth my money, this is the same case as previous Razer Blade models with unresolved issues and major new issues. The screen flickers when connected to Wi-Fi, especially at the maximum frame rate. (360Hz in my configuration). This is not a problem with older models (2020) with the same frame rate. Battery life isn't great, and Razer Blade laptop batteries have been known to swell. So if you mainly use the device on your desk, it might not be a good idea to plug it in and keep the battery at 100%. (Disconnect battery for extended use at desk) Razer Blade laptops are known for having MacBook-level build quality, but with newer hardware like the 3080, the palm rest gets unbearably hot when gaming and sweat starts to form on the palm accumulate surface. hand rest. my conclusion? Not worth upgrading my 2020 model with 10th Gen CPU and 2060 GPU, it might be worth buying the Razer Blade 14 model with AMD processors but I definitely regret that purchase.
