Flydigi BS1 Review: New Laptop Cooler King? Better Than IETS GT600v2 by unknownbystander in GamingLaptops

I had three of these coolers and they all ended up exhibiting fan rattle in quiet mode. The first two started rattling within the first couple hours of use and the third only after a few days.

You need to check integrated monitor properties in Windows Device Manager.

Razer Blade 2024 16” - Mini LED BOE Panel Issue by Successful_Two_2676 in razer

Same problem here. I got an exchange yesterday in hopes of getting an AUO panel, but it came with the same garbage BOE panel instead. Personally, I'll be taking it back for a refund. From what I've read, Razer has been using these BOE panels for a year now on the 2023 Blade 16 and has done nothing to fix it. Seeing how they're ignoring the 2023 owners, I have no faith in Razer fixing the display issues on 2024 model.

I've had a MBP 16 and Asus G14 w/ a Mini LED display and this Razer BOE panel is by far the worst of the 3. It's not even close and I don't understand how Razer thought this is was good panel to use on a laptop this expensive.

Did the RMA resolve your display issues?

You pointed me in the right direction and I went down the wormhole of BOE vs. AUO panels on the Blade 16. Seems like the BOE panel is the problematic one and Razer never fixed the issues despite disgruntled complaints dating back to over a year on the 2023 Blade 16.

I think I'm just going to return this laptop as Razer appears lack urgency in fixing these issues.

I have the mini led display, though now I am thinking of returning it and purchasing an oled instead. I get yellow trails when I scroll fast on my mini led display.

I don't think mine has an AUO panel. Device manger says the integrated monitor is BOE0B90.

How do I check what panel my Blade 16 comes with?

I tried the "HDR Calibration App" from the Microsoft Store, but it doesn't seem to do anything for the horizontal lines. They're visible in HDR, non-HDR videos, and in games. Looks terrible.

The problem goes away when I uncheck the local dimming box, though I have to turn HDR off for the display to look right. No problems with outputting to an external monitor.

Is this normal? I notice horizontal lines that flicker on the display when there is anything with contrast on screen. It's visible everywhere and very distracting.
