In our Razer Blade Pro 17 review, we praised its slim, premium build and its solid and gaming performance. We gave the Razer Blade Pro 17 an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars. 

During performance tests, the Blade Pro 17 juggled 28 open Google Chrome tabs (running TwitchYouTube and Tweetdeck among other websites) while streaming Netflix with ease. 

Battery-wise, the Blade Pro 17 went the distance of 4 hours and 41 minutes on our Laptop Mag Battery Test (continuous web surfing over Wi-Fi at 150 nits of brightness). It beat the premium gaming laptop average of 4 hours and 14 minutes. 

With a weight of 6.1 pounds and 15.6 x 10.2 x 0.8 inches, the Blade Pro 17 is on par with competing for 17-inch laptops. It’s lighter than the MSI GE76 Raider (6.4 pounds, 15.6 x 10.6 x 1.1 inches) and Alienware m17 R4 (6.6 pounds, 15.7 x 11.6 x 0.7~0.9 inches).

If you're in the market for a solid 17-inch gaming laptop, the Razer Blade Pro 17 might be worth the splurge.
