      The only use-case the top-spec really makes sense for is as a workstation/tool.
      If I'm going to make money with it over the next 3 years or so, if it enables an enhanced lifestyle because I can use it to work away from home, then it makes sense.

    For a 3D designer like me(using C4D, Octane Render, Substance Painter and so on), this is a perfect laptop for me and other GPU render users. the 4K resolution is extremely useful for those software, now I use a 1080p 17 inch Razer Blade Pro, 1080p is really not enough. And for the most of the 3D designer, they prefer gaming laptop over the new studio edition.

      @Extreme gamer well the only thing you can do on a console is game. Things like browsing the web or work can't be done in a console.

    Just coming back to this video a couple of years later. I've actually owned this laptop since 2019, and, for what it's worth, dust collection on the speaker grills isn't really an issue. I use a cleaning wipe to clean it off pretty regularly, and it looks as good as new. The battery, though... is pretty terrible. I definitely don't get more than 2 hours, doing almost anything. I've really only got two gripes about the machine in general. The extremely short battery life, and the extremely stiff trackpad click function. You seriously have to push down pretty firmly on the trackpad to click it.

So the sentence maybe uses a visual approach for describing the emotion he is trying to explain when he can't fully understand emotion being only half human. Its a brilliant statement coming from an intelligent alien making an observation of something only humans can feel. So yeah, you should already know what hes talking about or pick up what was the topic before showing how the wording confuses you.

    In my opinion having 4K 120hz would be a good way to not compromise between high refresh and high resolution. I would use this for productivity, for example video editing, where the 4k would help, but since most 4K displays are 60 hz I’d be limited to that if I want to game. I’d game at 1080p on the Razer to take full advantage of the high refresh rate. Basically it’s not exactly to be used at the same time, but a good way to get the best of both worlds instead of buying a separate monitor to get that high refresh rate or resolution that you wanted but couldn’t get.

      alfie 26God Can you give reason to that assumption? My argument is as following: If you are an advertiser, you pay real money in order to get that timeframe of endorsement of your product. Direct sponsorship has advantages, but also disadvantages. For example you don‘t have the guarantee of RUclips anymore, that your expensively paid seconds are really displayed. Sponsorships are based on trust.
      Now, if you would be an advertiser with money. Tell me. If almost everyone would state that they skip the ads on every video, would you still be as willing to spend that amount of money there? Especially if it gets top comment and all, and is a movement that you can see on most videos?
      You have to put yourself in the other perspective in order to find out the consequences of your actions.

Hated the glossy 4k screen and the thermals were straight garbage (kudos to Razer to addressing it in this gen.). Ended up switching to the Aorus X7 V6 (also 2016, I believe) w/ Skylake and GTX 1080. Contrary to your video, it had a 1440p display @ 120hz. Thermals were good, I thought I had found the perfect laptop... but the display panel was just whack. I don't know how to explain it, but I didn't like the display - also got rid of that within a month. Now I'm using a Razer Blade 15" RTX from 2019, and I must say, the 1080p @ 144hz display is just fine. Hell, even my 2011 Macbook Pro 17" @ 1900x1200 (matte) looks better than either the Aorus or the Razer Blade Pro. I'm thinking of upgrading to either the Zephyrus GX701 or the Razer Blade Pro RTX (1080p). Any laptop I own must have a matte/anti-glare display - hate the new glossy/touchscreen trend.
