Razer Blade 15 (2018) 144hz 1070 | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Today when I powered on my laptop, I noticed the right speaker has crackling sound.



I tested with this:





And true enough.. there's crackling sound on the right speaker at certain frequencies.



WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? I've had this laptop for only a month and I absolutely love it (until now...)



As I'm from Malaysia I'm worried that RMA-ing this product will take me forever since ordering it itself took forever.. and does it also mean I have to reformat my laptop? What should I do?
I noticed the same issue. Had you found the solution yet?
Same problem but with Left speaker. I have razer blade 17inch. Happens also with headphones.?? Can you guys check with headphones also to see if its a soundcard or maybe network issue (ie downloading from youtube)
YES!! I have the SAME issue. Razer Blade 15, 1070 GTX, 512 SSD, 16G, 144HZ;



I got my blade last week and noticed the right speaker with popping buzzing crackling noise when I turn to Max 100% volume. (under 90% volume the problem seems less noticeable)



Today, I just exchanged a brand new blade from MS store.



Guess what!!! The exactly same issue still present. same issue, same right internal speaker.



I will live with it as I believe all models may have this issue. So why bother...







Check this post for reference, same thing happened in prior model.

Hi, if possible, please change the title and include words such as speaker issue/problem etc. Because it took me awhile to find this great post.



I feel like more people and Razer should know about this.



thanks
Does anyone have problems oh headphones as well?



Tried bluetooth speakers, had no problem there. Maybe Different dolby EQ settings may help a bit.



I feel like sending mine back, but other than speaker issue its a nice laptop

I tried external speaker and a regular headphones and they all works fine.



So I believe that only the blade internal speaker has issues.



Please let me know if your replacement is working fine. My replacement still has the same issue.
I cant believe how bad this audio is on these Razers. They have had this problem for a long time.

I dont know if i will get a replacement if all Razers seem to have the same problem.

I would recommend against anyone buying a Razer blade as this problem is a deal breaker.




Try this piano play with 100% volume.



The popping buzzing crackling noise starts from the beginning and my right side speaker sounds really bad.



I played this music to test my initial purchase and the replacement, unfortunately the speaker issue still present.
Weirdly mine was really bad yesterday, with the touchpad pointer also stuttering audio in youtube.



Today i test 1 minute audio again and get no problem. There was a big Win 10 update that came in, but i cant imagine that would be the fix.
EDIT: Ok seems to be back again on the deBussy and some other tracks.





So mine seems to be completely fixed after having the computer for 1 month. Not sure why
