Assassin’s Creed Valhalla averaged 70 fps at the Ultra High settings preset, and dropping it down to 1080p brought that up to 80 fps. Red Dead Redemption 2, for example, only averaged 53 fps at 1600p at Ultra settings. The Razer Blade 15 is still a performer, though in many AAA games, you’ll want to drop either the resolution or the graphics settings to get over 60 fps. With the RTX 3070 Ti, you’ll have to turn down graphics settings in most games significantly to get over 200 frames per second (fps) - especially when playing at the native 1600p resolution. This is a powerful gaming laptop, no doubt, but the 3070 Ti can’t make use of the 240Hz quite as well as a 3080 Ti would have. A more powerful RTX 3080 Ti option is missing, which is unfortunate. You can only get the 240Hz OLED panel paired with an RTX 3070 Ti. Performance and battery lifeĪs this 240Hz OLED panel is fairly exclusive, Razer only offers it on a single configuration.

And, of course, that HDR goodness applies to other forms of content too, whether that’s movies or YouTube videos. But even as is, this is some of the best HDR performance I’ve experienced on a gaming laptop. Of course, 620 nits of peak brightness isn’t as high as your favorite TV, a gaming monitor like the Alienware 34 QD-OLED, or even an XDR panel on the MacBook Pro. It’s hard to describe in words or capture in photos, but if you’ve never gamed in HDR, you don’t know what you’re missing. Colors come to life, you see new detail in scenes, and the lighting feels so much more realistic. But the combination of the incredible contrast of OLED and a peak HDR brightness of 620 nits means it produces some really solid HDR performance - and it looks fantastic. It’s not upfront in the marketing, and the panel hasn’t been certified by DisplayHDR. The best hidden feature of this screen, though, is HDR support. HDR brings colors to life and exposes new detail in scenes.
