It also features six hours of battery life, and a Killer Wireless-N networking adaptor to cater for those online gaming sessions.

The laptop features 8GB of 1,600 MHz DDR3L memory and comes standard with 128 GB of total solid-state storage with options for a 256 GB or 512 GB SSD. The Razer Blade also comes with Dolby Home Theatre v4.
