Hey guys, I know some of you already received the Razer Blade 14 (2014). There are no reviews out and I'm still waiting on my 512gb that seems like it will never release.
My question to those who already got their laptop is - if it's even worth waiting for?
If you guys could pick another laptop after seeing it first hand, would you?
Thanks!

order the 128gb.
if there is no other pretty laptop i would get . maybe the msi ghost pro 15 inch -
It's worth it compared to the 2013 Razer 14 with that horrible crappy screen. The 2014 Razer with the IGZO 1800p panel paired with the Kepler GTX 870m is miles better than the 2013 Razer, but I would've preferred it to have a 1080p IPS panel w/ the Maxwell gtx 860m instead.

On topic: I feel your pain, OP. I am having this feeling that 512 GB will be available sometime around Christmas, lol. -

I am really enjoying it. Ghost pro is the only thing that seems comparable, as others have said, but I really dislike the gaming tag. While the Razer logo is obnoxious, at least it is somewhat obscure and if you know what it is, you are probably a gamer or younger generation.
Everyone at work has no idea what my laptop is, or that it is a "gaming" laptop, and that's how I like it.

I agree with you zeelobby, but imho the ghost badge and branding is much worse.

If you trace it then use an xacto knife to cut some black tape you could probably hide it with some class.
I was thinking about painting it over carefully with some modeling paints in flat black myself. Maybe primer first to get more light blocking. Remains to be seen what I think of it in person. -
Surely a sticker will do?

I'm considering the ASUS G750 JZ now...

Haha 17" Asus and Blade 14 couldn't be any more different in the gaming notebook space.

The high CPU temps and reports from 1 member of seeing screen ghosting/blurring has me a little concerned.

I feel like I’ve made too big of a deal of it. It’s just something I noticed right away. After all the talk about it I am still planning to keep my blade. Playing skyrim last night for a few hours was awesome, colors are vivid, screen is bright, and it played excellent.
*I forgot to add that in my opinion, it was worth the wait! -

Gotta have smaller? the GS60 Ghost ain't bad either.
Is the 2014 Razer Blade worth the wait?
