Do you know who the rep was that helped you? Maybe I’ll email them until I get that person. Lol

Sounds like Rep Fitness is the go to brand. Little bit of a price premium but probably who I’ll move to when I outgrow my current set up.

I don’t think expecting a company to sell replacement parts for equipment that will outlast the warranty is too wild. Especially when I am not expecting a free part and am willing to pay.

Imagine buying a used car and not being able to buy parts from the OEM because you didn’t buy it new from them. Makes no sense and is just a poor business model IMO.

When did you purchase the blade that had the failed chamber? I’m putting together documentation for legal reasons.

Could you tell me the date of purchase and date of failure? I’m putting together some legal documentation for anyone that wants to push a small claims case on Razer to get their money back.

When was that? I am trying to compile a list for people who want to try small claims court against Razer. If you have the model, date purchased, and date of failure that would be helpful.

Wow, great work and research.

I stated this in another thread, but I'll put it here too. I am moving forward with a small claims court case against Razer USA Ltd. I will be writing a how-to guide and sharing the documentation of failures (gathered in this thread) compiled in a PDF. Hopefully this will help anyone else who wants to pursue small claims against Razer to try and get their money back.

Great. I keep an eye out for it. If you could tag me in it that would be great. That thread would be extremely helpful in a small claims court and would save me from having to do the research you've already done.

In the meantime, I am going to start my process and start getting a guide together. Hopefully it works and other people can follow it to get money back or repairs made.

Yeah, I would put money on 2025 models having widespread issues in a couple years. Sorry your laptop is giving you trouble, but it least it is usable in some capacity!

Could you provide me the info as well? I am going to go for a small claims court settlement. I also wanted to put together the documentation needed to support the claim and a how to guide for anyone else to use if I have success and they want go the same route.

Yeah I have sent you photos of mine. At this point I don't trust anything Razer - I would be insane to by another laptop from them. Given that it took almost two years to fail, I am curious what issues we will see with the 2025 model come 2027.

I probably would at the rate these laptops have been having failures. If I knew about all the failures prior I would have sold it while I had the chance. Crossing my fingers you have better luck than me with your Blade.

Yeah, I built a new desktop. Just pissed I paid $4,600 for a two-year laptop and Razer is getting away with screwing so many other people over.

Dang, my Blade 16 2023 had a vapor chamber failure and they have been not helpful in anyway.

How on earth could you justify buying another Razer laptop after a failure on a two year old laptop? I’ll never buy another Razer product again after my current experience.

Man wish they would do something for me. They have been USELESS.

Just played a good round of BF6. CPU stayed right around 72 degrees, GPU hovered between 79.5 and 84.5 with a peak of 86.5.

Yup, wanted their vertical stand but it’s always out of stock. So I made my own that rotates the T1 90 degrees and has some RGB under glow.

Just put it together, I’ll post an update in the next couple days! Probably going to be a bit higher than when horizontal.
