The Razer Blade 15 has a better screen than the Dell Latitude 5330 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1, with its fair screen attributes, offers good enough resolution and brightness for everyday tasks and productivity software, but it falls short for engineering and design due to less coverage of professional color gamuts like DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB. Meanwhile, the Razer Blade 15's very good screen quality excels in general use and tasks requiring color accuracy thanks to higher color gamut coverage, but for gaming and 3D, it doesn't meet the mark since high refresh rates which are crucial for smooth visuals are lacking. This makes the Razer more suitable for creators and professionals, while the Dell is aimed at business users needing less intensive graphic performance.

How the Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 and the Razer Blade 15 compare to other laptops
"The 2022 Blade 15 offers roughly 15 to 25 percent faster graphics performance and 20 percent faster CPU performance over last year's Core i7-11800H and RTX 3080 model. Thankfully, the system doesn't need to run noticeably louder or warmer to achieve faster results, but both power consumption and battery life take a hit. The higher consumption in particular appears to be a trend amongst many 12th gen Core laptops including the Schenker Uniwill Technology GM7AG8P or MSI Vector GP66 when compared to their previous generation counterparts. We're also glad to not see below-average CPU performance which was the case for the 10th gen Core i7-10875H model."
