The next-generation Razer Blade 18 has arrived. The new Blade 18 2024 flagship gaming laptop will sport the world's first 18-inch 4K/200Hz display. Under the hood, you'll be well powered for gaming with an Intel Core i9-14900HX processor and GeForce RTX 4090 graphics.
If you would prefer a QHD display at this size instead, then that option will also be available – you'll get a refresh rate bump to 300Hz too. The RTX 4090 GPU found under the hood is a fully-powered version, with access to the full 175W TGP. As an RTX 40 series GPU, you will also benefit from current-generation features like DLSS 3 with Frame Generation.
Another key point here is that the new Blade 18 is equipped with Thunderbolt 5, making it one of the first laptops to support next-gen connectivity. Thunderbolt 5 can allow up to 120Gbps speeds, enabling the use of multiple high resolution displays, high-speed storage and accessories like docks.
All of this speed is packed within the 21.99mm thin chassis, making this the world's thinnest 18-inch Intel HX-class laptop too. There sure seem to be a lot of world firsts on display here. Being on the cutting edge doesn't come cheap though. The new Razer Blade 18 laptop will be available in the US and Europe starting this month, priced at $3,099.99 / €3599.99.
