Razer Blade Pro is one beast of a laptop. This is easily the description industry experts give this machine. It is even considered a device to have when MacBook Pro is not enough anymore. It gives a lot more than MacBook Pro, however, is it really a worthy competition?

According to Forbes, the Razer Blade Pro is an ultimate gaming laptop and MacBook Pro can also do games but not as good. Many say that it is not even a competition as the two laptops are worlds apart, however, since both are making waves in the laptop world, it will definitely be compared.

The Razer Blade Pro boasts of desktop specifications into a laptop-sized chassis. Its styling also pairs up with a no-compromise attitude as the review states. It also aims to provide the best ever gaming experience for enthusiasts. It labels itself as a laptop, but it is packed with so much power that can even rival that of any desktops available.

The Razer Blade Pro's design is not to be discounted as well. It showcases its all-black anodized aluminum body which gives it a commanding and powerful look and appeal. Its look says it means business- serious business. Its design lends a common look to all Razer hardware and offers the company high level of brand recognition.

This beast of a machine is will handle any modern games ever conceivable. This is basically because it is powered by Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor which works in tandem with Nvidia GTX1080 graphics card. It also has 32GB of RAM and SSD storage options from 512GB to 3TB. These are some serious and hardcore specifications ready to perform its best at whatever it is tasked to do. Whether intense gaming and editing or office work, the Razer Blade Pro will do an amazing job.

However, the Razer Blade Pro also has its downside. Because of its extreme capacity to perform, it is faced with heat issues. It tends to feel hot to the touch after using for quite a while. It may need to be charged faster than MacBook Pro. This may be a hindrance for some especially after battery combustion has been a huge issue late last year.

As added by Slash Gear, it solidifies the Razer Blade Pro as a mean gaming machine. For those who are into serious gaming and hardcore video editing, MacBook Pro will not be an option at all. However, for support availability in case the device messes up, Apple provides it better. Apple has in-store technicians available to help fix a broken MacBook Pro while there may be issues getting help if the Razer Blade Pro bugs down.

If MacBook Pro is considered ridiculously expensive, guess again. The Razer Blade Pro costs even more. This can even be considered as one of the most expensive laptops in recent history. If MacBook Pro's retail price is $4,299, prepare to shell out more as the Razer Blade Pro retails for $4,499.

At the end of the day, MacBook Pro's up to Radeon Pro 460 is no match to the GTX 1080 of the Razer Blade. However, it is still a mean laptop. If one is not a serious gamer and has more office work to do, MacBook Pro is still the best option. See if the video below agrees with experts.
