    It’s been a while since Blade Pro update, there’s live-streams event that usually announces something, the background was background motiv from old Razer Blade wallpaper only with color.

    I think RBP will be refreshed in Jan 2019, with 8950hk and rtx 2080 hopefully, with a 8750h/rtx 2060 model showing up in august/september 2019

    Given that they're discounting the pro model by £450 i think theres a new one incoming!

    Plus £220 off the blade 15 maybe its time for series 20 already?

    I think it's probably got something to do with their rewards program, but that seems kind of lackluster for a full announcement type thing...

    Early AMD 7970M also had longevity problems that were corrected a year later. I don’t like to be early adopter, I wait for things to be refined.

    Haha! I went to do that for you then remembered I'm not a moderator on this forum like i am on many others!

    Yeah, i was convinced seeing as MSI announced their new slim, tiny bezel 17" device today that Razer would follow!

    I can do that on similar form factor forum, Razer Insider, there’s option to delete thread that user made, but here couldn’t find that :oops:
    Btw do you mean GF75? Imo it’s funny that 17 laptops weaker than 15 gs65, that has only 1050 or 1050ti maxq right? It’s indeed 2,2 kg for bigger screen executives but, they should put at least 1070maxq considering they can put it in 1,8kg gs65.

    Yup! Challenged them on twitter about that and they said "it's an entry level chassis :)".

    From the looks of it, they aren't going to update RBP. As I talked to one of their agent and he said that the Razer Blade Advanced is a proper replacement for the 7th gen i7 1080 RBP. :(

    They’re always late recent years, but there’s something comes, a system :) Not quite sure what is that though ;)
