Design
Changes have been made to the Razer blade pro 17 design. Edges of the laptop have more sharp corners instead of the rounded ones of previous models. This gave the laptop a more serious look and made it better suit for work and not only for gamers.
It is a sleek and lightweight 17-inch laptop with enough ports for better connectivity. Two USB 3.2 ports, a USB-C 3.2 port, an Ethernet connection port, and a 3.5mm headphone port are on the left-hand side of the laptop. While an SD card reader, Thunderbolt 3, another USB 3.2 port, and HDMI 2.0 port are on the right-hand side of the laptop.
The keyboard has bigger keys and is well-spaced. Although the travel is a bit shallow, that means the keyboard is not as tactile as the one on a MacBook Pro. The trackpad is very good and responsive.
Display
Razer blade pro 17 has an impressive display of 17-inch full HD. It is has a 1080p resolution with 300 nits of brightness, meaning the colors are bright and vibrant.

Performance
The laptop comes with a 10th Generation Intel processor. The Core i7-9750H can handle all day to day tasks such as typing, sending emails, photo editing, and graphics designing conveniently.
For gaming, Razer performs excellently, it can play new games conveniently without lagging. In fact, there is currently no PC game the Blade Pro won’t tackle with ease.
