Hey everyone, I have the 2025 Blade 16 (Ryzen AI 9, RTX 5070 Ti). When I turn the dGPU off and only use the integrated AMD graphics, I get a mild flickering on the screen. it happens on low brightness without me touching anything.
Is this just how the panel behaves, or is there a fix? I'm thinking about sending it in for warranty, but I don't want to if a BIOS or driver update will fix it.
Question
Blade 16 (2025) screen flickers/bounces with dGPU off on lower brightness

I spent some time emailing razer support https://imgur.com/a/HxMNk9T this is the response it’s considered normal behavior…
I am disappointed with Razer synapse, the battery life and sleep issues with the blade 2025 I would suggest you return your laptop for a Zephyrus or another gaming laptop because the experience with the 2025 blade most-likely cannot or wont be fixed :(
Oh my god, that’s exactly my situation! The battery life, the drain after sleep, the terrible screen flicker. Sigh. I actually switched over from a Zephyrus G16 2023. BUT….Laptops are so expensive this year.

I live in Turkey laptop and electronic prices are already sky high here with AI the prices got even worse. I bought the blade because it was cheaper on sale compared to the G16 and I regret it completely…
I heard the 2026 model blade gets better battery life despite still having issues it also still doesn’t beat the Zephyrus either there aren’t many rivals to the Zephyrus I wish more brands were focused on a macbook-like gaming laptop but the Zephyrus definitely is a better option than the blade… especially with G-Helper

Couldn’t agree more, but hope you have a nice day! From the other side of the Earth ;)
