2014 Razer Blade vs 2015 Lenovo Y50

Sirnaderibrahim

Maybe some asus or msi laptops. I think they have laptops with the discrete geforce non-mobile cards

As someone that recently bought a lenovo laptop for school i'll say.

Go for the blade. The one i got (B50-30) was so incredibly bogged down by all the crap they loaded onto it that it needs a fresh install of windows to run properly.

 

+ No windows install key from what i can tell. Just a one-key recovery button thing.

if you want a cool and quiet lappy - get this. if you want extra horse power - get the blade.

I'm probably going to grab the 512gb because it's double the storage for $400 so screw, plus my dad is lending me some money as well so that should cover it

You can get a 1TB 850 Evo for 200$ :P - you can put it in after purchase ^_^

I'll do it, but prices are weird on Amazon so for the 2015 Blade the 512gb model is cheaper

It is a beast laptop with my only problem being the Size,build but most importantly battery life

I can deal with the 1" size

Plastic, not happy but a custom paint and logo by xoticpc helps

Do you know about battery life on this with light task like Web browser, the blade is 6 hours and if can't get around that I'll stick with the blade

I'm sad to say battery life is about 4 hours-ish, from my experience with the Haswell 980M variant, but mine is constantly set in high performance mode, and Skylake seems to be more power efficient.

You can always set it to like quiet or something, which should save power.
