Razer Switchblade


The Razer Switchblade is a highly portable, handheld PC gaming device with dual 7" multi-touch displays. The second display features a layer of tactile, dynamic keys which adapt to different gaming situations. This is a great product from a company which has given us gamers a lot of cool gaming gear.

Additionally, the Switchblade sports an Intel Atom processor, a pre-installed copy of Windows 7 with a custom user interface and a 128GB solid state drive.

The Switchblade's dynamic keyboard can be set with whichever control scheme best suits the current game being played, allowing for full-sized keys and proper functionality in a small form factor.

The Razer Switchblade has mini-HDMI output - capable of outputting visuals onto a larger display and runs Windows 7 which is a great thing and They have gone through the pain of customizing the OS. I like its small, portable form factor and will be good for travel. It has a completely customizable keyboard - each key is an LED backlit LCD display, customizable per game controls. There is custom unknown hardware - clear support from Intel, and other un-named companies? Potential for this to materialize once finalized.There is a 128GB SSD - large enough for big games, faster, and more physically resilient than disk based storage and is much more storage then the other devices of this size. Razer is saying 4-6 hours of gameplay on battery so that's good news.This will be amazing for WoW and other MMO players.The build quality matte black build is said to be Top Noach.
The only drawback that seems to me  is the screen is a bit to small and  keyboard lacks standard key layout - poor for regular computer use.

So this Product is expected to launch in April and at that time I can give you a complete specs and verdict of whether to buy it or not. But it does seem a very good device for game fanatics.

As usual if you have any questions or comments just email me or leave a comment.
