The Acer Predator 21 X is unlike any other device we’ve tested – which makes for a rather challenging – yet also enjoyable – review. This is an incredibly ambitious device that fits some of the most powerful gaming components available today into a (sort of) portable device.

2.     Razer Blade



Price: Rs. 2,47,000.00 / $3,699

CPU: 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ

It may not play friendly with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update just yet, but your time with the Razer Blade will be as extensive as it is hasty. On top of boasting a battery life of over 7 and a half hours, it can handle up to 4K Ultra HD gaming with the help of a Razer Core V2 external graphics box and a spare monitor. Or you could opt for the more recently added integrated 4K display option. Either way, you’re in for a treat, we assure you.

3.     Asus ROG Strix GL502

4.     Alienware 13 R3



Price: Rs. 1,22,500.00 / $1,836.35

CPU: Intel Core i5 – i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060
 RAM: 8GB – 16GB DDR4

 Storage: 180GB – 512GB SSD

Even though there is a trend towards more portable notebooks with small dimensions, the choice in the range of smaller than 15 inches is still limited – at least when you are looking for a powerful gaming notebook. There are only two 14-inch laptops in our mobile Top 10 ranking (as of February), the MSI GS43VR 6RE and the 2016 model of the Razer Blade. Alienware or its parent company Dell now uses the concept of a mobile gaming system and takes it to another level with the Alienware 13 R3, the third iteration of the 13-inch gaming laptop.
The technology has changed quite considerably compared to the pre-predecessor that we reviewed back in the mid-2015. The chassis no longer uses an efficient ULV processor with a TDP of 15 watts anymore, but a conventional quad-core CPU from Intel's Kaby Lake generation with a much higher consumption of 45 watts (Core i7-7700HQ or Core i5-7300HQ). The graphics performance has also improved. Instead of the Maxwell chip GeForce GTX 960M, the graphics are now handled by a brand-new Pascal chip. Depending on the SKU you will have a choice of the GeForce GTX 1050 (2 GB GDDR5), GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (4 GB GDDR5) or GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB GDDR5) in combination with 8-32 GB of DDR4 RAM. Games and other files can be stored on an SSD with a capacity between 180 and 1000 GB (SATA-III or PCIe/NVMe). A secondary storage device is also possible.

5.     Razer Blade Pro



Price: Rs. 1,53,000,00 / $2,299

CPU: Intel Core i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB GDDR5) – 1080 (8GB GDDR5X)
 RAM: 16 – 32GB
 Screen: 17.3-inch, FHD (1,920 x 1,080) 120Hz matte IPS – UHD (3,840 x 2,160) IGZO touchscreen with G-Sync
 Storage: 512GB – 2TB PCIe SSD

At long last, Razer has introduced a true desktop replacement that won’t weigh you down. Measuring in at only 0.88 inches thick with the option between a 17-inch 1080p display running at 120Hz or a G-Sync-laden 4K touchscreen, the Razer Blade Pro also introduces the company’s ultra-low-profile mechanical switches to a notebook for the first time ever. That’s a deal that’s only sweetened by an unusual trackpad placement that makes it comfier to boot.

6.     Gigabyte SabrePro 15



Price: Rs. 96,700.00 / $1,449

CPU: Intel Core i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060
 Screen: 15.6-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080) IPS wide-viewing angle display
 Storage: 1TB HDD, 256GB SSD

7.     Gigabyte Aero 14



Price: Rs. 2,13,600.00 / $3,200

CPU: Intel Core i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB GDDR5)
 RAM: 16GB – 32GB
 Screen: 14-inch, QHD 2,560 x 1,440 anti-glare IPS
 Storage: 512GB – 1TB SSD

Gigabyte is no stranger to thin gaming laptops, but the Taiwan-based electronics firm has outdone itself with the ultra-slim Aero 14. Measuring in at only 0.78-inches (1.99mm) thick and weighing 4.17 pounds (1.89kg), this 14-inch gaming laptop could almost be considered an ultra-portable.
Gigabyte promises to deliver the affordable, ultra-thin gaming laptop of your dreams with a 3K screen, Intel’s latest quad-core Kaby Lake processors, Nvidia’s GTX 1060 graphics chip and a massive battery. However, that massive battery doesn’t amount to massive longevity, and its killer price is subsidized by plenty of bloatware. Still, the Aero 14 proves to be an incredible value.

8.     Alienware 17 R4



Price: Rs. 1,82,300.00 / $2,700

CPU: Intel Core i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (2GB GDDR5) – GTX 1080 (8GB GDDR5X)
 RAM: 8GB – 32GB
 Screen: 17.3-inch, FHD (1,920 x 1,080) – UHD (3,840 x 2,160) IPS anti-glare 300-nits
 Storage: 128GB SSD, 1TB HDD – 2TB SSD, 1TB HDD

Alienware hasn’t been a name typically associated with value. That seems to be changing with the Alienware 17 R4, which bears so many different customization options when it comes to specs that you can practically name your own price. Bespeckled with all of the signature elements we’ve come to expect from the brand, such as RGB backlit-accents and tons of ventilation, our only real qualm with the Alienware 17 R4 is a disappointing battery life.

9.     Dell inspiron 15



Price: Rs. 46,600.00 / $700

CPU: Intel Core i5 – i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 – 1050 Ti
 RAM: 8GB – 16GB
 Screen: 15.6-inch, FHD 1,920 x 1,080 – UHD 3,840 x 2,160 anti-glare LED backlit
 Storage: 1TB SSHD 8GB – 1TB HDD, 128GB SSD

In a world full of overpriced (and overcompensating) gaming laptops, the Dell Inspiron 15 Gaming is a breath of fresh air. An anomaly that ditches the Alienware moniker, Dell has crafted yet a gaming laptop that’s masked as one of its more productivity-centric machines. The discrete graphics options won’t blow you away, but the price certainly will. Plus with a battery life recorded at 7 hours and 38 minutes, it’s unparalleled in that department.

10.    Asus ROG Zephyrus GX501

Price: Rs. 1,10,999.00 / $2,699

CPU: Intel Core i7
 Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 (8GB GDDR5X VRAM)
 RAM: 16GB
 Screen: 15.6-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080) anti-glare, wide-view 120Hz panel with G-Sync
 Storage: 512GB M.2 PCIe x4 SSD

ROG Zephyrus is a revolutionary gaming laptop born from ROG’s persistent dedication to innovation. Despite being thinner than all previous ROG laptops, it has the hardware to rival high-end gaming desktops: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 graphics with Max-Q design, a 7th Generation Intel® Core™ processor, an optional 120Hz wide-view display, and Windows 10 Pro. ROG slimmed the body to a mere 16.9-17.9mm while maintaining powerful cooling and unbeatable acoustic efficiency thanks to a clever new air-flow design: Active Aerodynamic System. The sleek chassis also includes an RGB keyboard that will feel familiar to gamers who typically play on desktop PCs.
