As good a gaming-laptop keyboard as you'll find in the $2,000 range, with the added boon of its robust color-customization suite, If you like a trackpad aligned on the right side of your keyboard, this one's better than most in the gaming-laptop space, Ma
In dropping to the $2,000 level, you give up the performance boosts needed to max out this 120Hz panel—especially since it doesn't use variable refresh rates to offset its frequent sub-120 performance, Enough bugs and crashes emerged to make us question t

Not a fan of the keyboard/trackpad layout, Backlighting doesn't extend to extra markings on keys, Mediocre battery life

Sharp-looking 120Hz screen, Solid build quality, Quiet, effective cooling, Excellent per-key RGB backlit keyboard, Long battery life
Pricey for GTX 1060-level performance, No dedicated gaming macro keys, Lacks built-in biometric features
Razer cuts the price of its 17.3-inch flagship gaming laptop roughly in half while keeping much of its appeal. But this GeForce GTX 1060 machine is priced perilously close to other brands' GTX 1070 models...
Nice all-metal design, 120Hz panel, A ton of storage, Good battery life, Solid 1080p gaming performance
Pricier than average for a GTX 1060, Relatively dull matte screen
This less expensive take on the Blade Pro packs the premium build and many high-end features of its pricier sibling, but costs more than the average GTX 1060 gaming laptop...
