hey how's it going Dave 2d here so razor just announced a whole slew of new products including a new phone and some new laptops so their new phone is the razor phone to the phone from last year the razor phone one has a very similar design to the new one but they've changed quite a few things this year so last year's razor phone had a super fast 120 Hertz display but the screen wasn't very bright the razor phone too increases that screen brightness by about 50% still 1440p still super smooth at 120 Hertz and this is something that's difficult to showcase in my videos cuz I shoot at 24 frames per second 120 Hertz screen looks incredibly smooth and with the improved brightness on this year's screen it's gonna be one of the best viewing experiences you can get on a smart phone some other notable changes it's a glass back this year so supports wireless charging and the camera system has been updated it's still a dual lens system but with updated optics and software the logo on the back of the phone also supports Razer chroma which for the unfamiliar is razor's RGB lighting system you can use that light for notifications or if you want you can run some lighting effects on it point is you have sixteen point eight million colors to choose from so now you can live that RGB life it's also ip67 water-resistant this year which is something the original RAZR phone was missing and the speakers have also been upgraded so last year's Razer phone had some of the best speakers on the market and the Razer phone 2 is even better this year they're louder they're cleaner and it's very likely that the Razer phone 2 is gonna have the smart phone speaker crown again it's been updated to Snapdragon 845 this year it's cooled with a vapor chamber to keep thermals in check when you're playing games still has eight gigs of RAM still has a four thousand milliamp hour battery but the razor phone 2 is obviously more optimized this year with a new SOC so you're gonna get slightly better battery life especially at 120 Hertz you just be able to hit that 10-hour mark at the higher refresh rate it's gone up in price though so originally launched last year at 700 bucks this year 800 it's $100 increase I feel like last year's razor phone was not that was like a cheap phone but I felt like it was well priced this year it feels like they're trying to hit that more premium segment because 800 bucks for a smart phone in 2018 is certainly not cheap the other things that they announced are some laptops the one that is most interesting to me is this guy right here this is a limited-edition mercury white razor blade this is one of the best looking laptops on the market to me it's not a white laptop per se the keys are white and they still have the Razer chroma lighting on those keys which i think looks nicer on white keys then on black keys the metal chassis though isn't painted or anything it's just a very light silver but in this kind of matte finish it has the texture that gives with this really Pleasant look it just reflects light a particular way the top surface has the same thing going on but instead of the green logo that we've seen on the black razor blade this has a much more muted vibe it's just like a polished silver logo the ports are black instead of the regular green and this whole laptop looks so nice to me I mean I've seen a lot of black laptops but beyond that I'm just partial to white Hardware I love white laptops and this is actually one of the best looking white laptops we've seen it wasn't done this like cheap weight they could have painted it they could have done like some cheap process to make it look silver and white but they didn't they did this classic finish to it that looks awesome now personally I think this actually looks a lot like the old-school MacBook Pros like that silver finish from the 90s but I like it my only concern is durability if I had this mercury white version I'd probably skin it with a marble or a white from D Brant there's also a new base razor blade so it comes in a much cheaper price with a decent configuration still so for $1,600 you can now get into the razor blade line now there's a third announcement that they made which I thought was more interesting to me than I think most people so I made a video recently that talked about razors after-sales support and I found that their warranty period was sometimes a little bit shorter than the big names in the industry so people like Corsair and Logitech just had two year warranties on a lot of their products but razor only had one year warranty on some of their gaming peripherals but they've an S they're not doing a two-year warranty on all the major gaming peripherals like headsets keyboards mice all that stuff two-year warranty that's the type of move that makes your customers just appreciate you that much more so huge kudos to Razer for doing that I think that's that's a smart move okay that's their new lineup that's some of their new warranty announcements that's basically it hope you guys enjoyed this video thumbs if you liked it subs if you loved it see you guys next time
