Our Verdict
Razer Blade 14 (2022)
ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2022)
The Razer Blade 14 (2022) and the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2022) are both thin and light 14-inch high-end gaming laptops. The Razer is a more premium-feeling device overall, and it delivers a smoother gaming experience with a faster 165Hz display and better-performing GPUs. However, the ASUS might be a better choice for productivity tasks as it has a longer battery life and a brighter display to combat glare in well-lit settings. You can also configure the ASUS with more memory, which is important for demanding workloads with large datasets.
