The Razer Blade 18 is the most luxurious gaming laptop around, but who is it for?

Razer says the new Blade 18 is the most powerful laptop it’s ever built. However, with a fully loaded model coming in at a whopping $4,500, it’s way out of reach for pretty much everyone. So instead, we called in a base model that goes for a slightly more affordable $2,900 to try and figure out who this thing is really for.

Price: Starts at $2,900

Pros: Big 240Hz display, premium aluminum chassis, supports top-notch components, great port selection

Cons: Extremely expensive, short battery life, big, no additional display options
