USB-C Charging on Razer Blade 15 Base (2020)

Can you please let me know where it is stated that the 15" laptops support USB-C charging. I have been going over the web page and I have not see USB-C PD support yet.

USB-C Charging on Razer Blade 15 Base (2020)

Good news. The new 2020 15" and 17" support USB-C 3.0 100W charging. Time for me to upgrade. And thanks again for reminding me about the hyperjuice. I was needing a dual output USB-C charger.

New USB 4 laptops with EGPUs

The current Thunderbolt 3 Cores "should" work with the Thunderbolt 4 laptops. You will not get the benefits of Thunderbolt 4. As you have read, the difference between 3 and 4 is more lanes, and not more speed. I am betting that Razer will have a new Thunderbolt 4 Core coming out this year. Hopefully by the time the 15" and 17" laptops get updated with the 11gen Intel CPUs.

My battery blew up on my Razer Blade 15 - Advanced Model RTX

We had this happen on some of our Razer 13" laptops also. I just bought new batteries and installed them. The same thing happened with my work Dell. According to my IT department, this happens all the time.

USB-C Charging on Razer Blade 15 Base (2020)

Those Amazon descriptions are terrible and are inaccurate a lot. I always check specs on the manufactures web page. I am guessing what happened is that only the Advance model supports USB-C charging so it got listed. Many people have tested the Base model and there is no USB-C PD charging. Only the 2021 models support this.

When I contacted Razer support for a new battery, they pretty much said to mail in the laptop and they will give me a quote on the replacement cost later.

THX ONYX | Master-Quality Audio. On The Go.

Nice price for what that is. I am very impressed on the size. Even the low price company Monoprice has one, but it is more expensive and the size of a cell phone. I also have to admit that I am a fan of external DACs. Most laptops and cell phones now days just do not come with good DACs. I am tempted on buying an Onyx, but I would have to get some better headphones to really make them shine.

The cost is not bad. I mean it is less than the cost of the headphones needed to make a difference.

THX ONYX | Master-Quality Audio. On The Go.

KenserkyNot concerned, I only have wireless or USB audio devices. The question is which DAC (digital to audio converter) are you using? For both the wireless and USB devices, you have a DAC built into the headphones. There many DAC vendors out there and usually companies just use what is cheapest. The Razer laptops tend to have a pretty good DAC for the headphone port. For my work Dell, I have been using the Razer USB THX DAC that came with my Kraken Tournament 7.1 headphones and it makes a difference. I have both the Kraken 7.1 and Kraken 7.1 with THX DAC and you can tell the difference between them. It is not much, but it is there.

JudoChopNATypically Headsets don't convert digital signal to analog, if they do the quality isnt very good That is what USB or Bluetooth headset do.

Multipoint BT Headset

Good question. I get what you are trying to do. I have not seen any Razer headphones that support multipoint BT. I just went through the Razer web page and looked up some reviews, and I never found multipoint listed. I ended up with two headsets. One wired to each laptop. What I found surprising is how much better Kraken Tournament 7.1 THX headsets sound and feel vs the Kraken 7.1 Chroma USB. I get the convenience of wireless headsets with ANC, but keep going back to wired ones. I prefer passive noise canceling. The ANC gives me a weird feeling. The wired headphones just sound better. BT is getting better and someday, I might pick up a pair. While I am working from my deck, the cord is not an issue.

Blade Pro 17- no number pad WHY ?

I get where you are coming from. When I am at my desk, I live on the full size keyboard with number pad. When I am traveling with just the laptop, I do not miss it much. Actually, I would rather have no number pad on the laptop and bigger speakers. YMMV.

Blade Pro FHD 2017 Power supply

If you go with a 3rd party charger, make sure that the voltage is the same and that the current (aka amps) is the same or larger.

2021 Blade 15 QHD 165Hz: Does this screen use PWM?

FiszPLBecause it can cause eye strain / pain. And PWM is a cheap way to control screen brightness. I get that it is a cheap way to control screen brightness. I use PWM to control LED brightness in projects all the time. My question here is at what frequency does the PWM effect you? I mean the screen is already running at 165 Hz, so I am guessing that it must be much less than that? For my projects, I usually like to go over 90 Hz because I can notice it at 60 Hz.

BLADE 15 | Still the Best Gaming Laptop

superflairYes. I think so. I'm curious to see how this thing will handle 8 tracks of 4k video recording in Davinci Resolve. I've seen a guy somewhere doing it flawlessly on the i7 version from last year with 5 tracks. It is pretty crazy that you can do this on a laptop at all, let alone somewhat fast.

2020 Razer Blade Advanced USB-C PD Charging Issues

Since the USB-C charging was not office for the 2020 laptops, I held back from buying one. Now that the 2021 laptops are coming out and support USB-C charging, I am already planning on getting one.

BLADE 14 | The Ultimate AMD Gaming Laptop

I am surprised that the 14" AMD laptops do NOT have USB-4 ports. I am back to looking at the 15" laptops again.

USB-C GAN CHARGER | Compact Power

I am super happy that Razer released this product. It has bugged me that laptop power supplies only charge the laptop. I have been using the Hyper Juice charger lately and will not be going back to single use chargers. Having one charger for all of my devices is fantastic. I also will only buy 100w+ USB-C chargers from now on. I like to be able to plug any USB-C device into a plug and have it work.

I really hope that this becomes the default charger for all of the Razer laptops that charge at 130W or less.

These AMD laptop specs look great. My big question is that without the Thunderbolt (3 or 4), can you use them with a Core?
