Exactly what you expect from Razer

I've looked at a lot of gaming laptops. It came down to Blade, Asus Zephyrus M15 or MSI GS66. I ended up going for the blade because I just thought what the heck and went for the most expensive one. I did a lot of research before deciding to buy. I've seen and read the horror stories people have posted in reviews and on Reddit about the Razer QC. I've also seen very happy customers so I prayed for the best. Fortunately, after about 3.4 days of use, my device no longer has any problems. I don't see any major highlights on the screen, there is very little bleed in the right corner but that's basically it. I don't really like keyboards. Before that I used a Lenovo Y520 and even on this cheap model the keyboard was much better for me. I find the Blade keyboard too soft for me. The speakers are also a bit weaker. I wish they were a little meatier. I don't know how to explain but even my old Lenovo was better and I hated them. The top of the case next to the screen gets VERY hot when I play at high volume. I couldn't touch it for more than 3.4 seconds, but then again, nobody touches that area, so it doesn't matter. It also felt cool very quickly after you stopped playing, which really surprised me. In general, this is the only thing I "don't like". You are really picky, but actually I am very happy with this device. I will try to post here again if I run into problems later. Now I think they're great. I also mostly see reports about last year's model having issues with the 9th gen i7 and this year's 1660ti GPU model. If I were you I would try to avoid them and take a more expensive one just in case. Overall this is a good buy for me, just pray you have a good working model and you won't regret it!
