Razer Blade 16 with RTX 5060 to cost $1,999
A new leak suggests that the Razer Blade 16 laptop featuring the RTX 5060 graphics card will be priced at $1,999. This price is notably higher than some models with more powerful GPUs, like the RTX 5070 Ti. The RTX 50-series is approaching, and the RTX 5060 has not yet been officially released. However, the leaked pricing already surpasses Nvidia's suggested price for RTX 5070 laptops, which starts at $1,299. For context, an MSI laptop with the RTX 5070 Ti was recently priced at $1,599. According to the leak from @momomo_us on X, the Razer Blade 16 will come with a powerful AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a high-refresh OLED display. Other models, including ones with the RTX 5090, are also rumored but are likely to cost more. It is unclear when the RTX 5060 will officially launch, but rumors indicate it could happen in April. There are concerns about production issues that might delay the release. The pricing of the new models suggests that entry-level gaming laptops might not be as affordable as Nvidia had hoped. As prices for the RTX 50-series laptops remain high, potential buyers might want to consider discounts on the older RTX 40-series instead. Razer's current offerings include high-quality gaming laptops, and the Blade 16 continues to be a popular choice among gamers despite the steep pricing.
