entire chassis is milled from a single block of aluminium.
Despite having a 17.3in display, the 0.6mm bezels
that surround it allow the chassis to stay relatively
small – in fact, the Blade Pro 17 is 25 percent smaller
than the previous Pro and offers similar dimensions
to 15in laptops we’ve used in the past, measuring in
at 395x360x19.9mm and weighing 2.75kg. We can
confirm it’ll just about fit into a 15in laptop bag too,
making it easier to transport between home and work.
Despite the chassis magic, the Razer has a larger
surface for cooling when compared to the 2018 variant,
which translates to improved heat dissipation and
better performance during long gaming sessions.
It isn’t the thinnest laptop on the market – that
honour goes to the LG gram 17 (a non-gaming laptop)- but this offers a high-end gaming experience and, just
as importantly, a variety of full-size ports. Compared
