If you're looking for a laptop that is budget-friendly and suitable for everyday tasks like web browsing, office work, and media consumption, the Lenovo V15 is a sensible choice. However, if you need high performance for gaming, 3D rendering, or intensive machine learning tasks and are willing to invest more, the Razer Blade 15, with its superior graphics and processing capabilities, would be the better option. Keep in mind that the Razer Blade 15 also tends to have a more premium build quality but may be heavier and have a shorter battery life than the Lenovo V15, making the latter more portable for on-the-go use.

Marvin Gollor | April 2022
"The strengths of the Lenovo V15 G2 AMD lie in its expandability of the RAM and allowing you to use two SSDs, in its performance that goes beyond everyday applications thanks to AMD's hexa-core CPU and Vega-7 iGPU, in its good keyboard, and its relatively robust case. In addition, the battery life of the office laptop is also acceptable, and the device stays cool and relatively quiet."

Allen Ngo | March 2022
"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."
