UPDATE:
So its been a month later and the screen is holding up fine to regular use, however now that i am using it pretty often I am noticing some other issues.
For some reason my computer will randomly sleep while being used. Literally why i am browsing the web or working on homework, actively moving the cursor or typing. This is not really an issue when doing either of the former i can just click a button and get right back to what i was doing. However if i am trying to play an online game i get dced.
This only happens when the charger is plugged in for some reason. This will happen at least 4 to 5 times a day if its plugged in while using. Yes, I have looked at every possible setting and tried troubleshooting with razer support.
Also this thing gets HOT. I don't mean like it just gets hot to the touch. It gets hot and cant handle it and crashes. This is also only when its plugged in to charge and I'm trying to game at the same time.
I hear the fans working fine so idk if it could maybe be a battery issue.
The game I'm trying to play is a complete joke, nowhere near max settings. Its a MMO from 2008
I can't play even one game client (while charging) on my stealth without it crashing in 5 min.
I can run windows on my mac which heats it up way more, and run 2 clients fine, sometimes 3 will crash it
This is a 2011 Macbook pro. I'm not pushing apple either, they are overpriced and those morons took USB ports off their new Pro, that's the reason i came to razer, I was looking for something different. My search continues.
So yeah basically i got a $1700 (at the time of purchase) piece of shite and I get to experience the wonderful (horrible) RMA process again, but also need a laptop for class so I'll have to postpone it.
I don't recommend razer to anyone at all,like seriously. I'm not just like some super negative dude either, but this is the only razer product i have gotten and its been issue after issue.
I do see a lot of people praising them on here so maybe I am just the 1%. I think its more likely that this site attracts more fanboys with good experiences tho, if you go over to razer reddit or a few other spots you see a lot more negative things. But, please please please if you don't have money to just throw away heed this warning, don't buy anything from this company upon release, let the cash cows do that and be patient and read up on reviews of the EXACT product you plan to buy.
I just watched a few videos and reviews on razer stuff in general, maybe a review of the 2017 model IIRC. So yeah, if I researched it more i would have seen TONS of other posts about my model and the many issues it has. Horrible Quality Control for this model 100%.
One and done for me.
Signing off for good,
Take care everyone, Hope your experience is better than mine!
