Hay how's it going? Dave 2D here. In front of me are some white gaming laptops and each one of these has like a regular
Edition like a black or a black and red version but these are kinda like the special or limited editions and
Here's the thing when you see a picture of these online
Because we're so used to just black laptops these really stick out, right?
They stick out to be something like special something unique and for people that are interested in this kind of design aesthetic
This stuff looks really cool. But having handled these laptops for a little bit in real life
I've noticed that different brands handle their special edition or limited edition products differently
So these are the P65 from MSI
which is kind of like the GS65 kind of prestige or premium edition, and this is the
Helios 300 so they have a black and red
predator Helios 300 that is fairly common and then they made a special edition of that and then we have the
Mercury razor blade 15. So this is a device that's normally black and green from razor, but they have a white and silver version
Okay, first I'm gonna talk about the special edition Helios 300 from Acer
This is the cheapest of the bunch that they did a really good job on this thing
It's a white and gold themed plastic build with this kind of white pearlescent plastic
the gold accents are
Uniform in color and what I mean by that is that regardless of which kind of gold accent you're looking at whether it's the logo
The hinge or like the accents here and there it's all the same color of gold
Which is something I think that is important when it comes to making a special edition laptop like this
Now inside we have a white keyboard. The backlighting is white. There's gold accents on the trackpad on the keyboard
It's a great gaming laptop. Just like the original black and red version
It's just that this white and gold version looks so much better
Now Acer took it to another level
Included in this box is a white AC adapter and a matching Mouse and a pair of headphones
It's little details like that that makes this special edition actually feel special
I think this laptop here amongst these three
It sticks out as being a really complete and well thought out package next up
We're going to talk about the Mercury razor blade 15. So this device isn't white. It's silver
Now the normal razor blade material is just anodized black aluminum
But you can't anodize aluminum white you can kind of etch it and give it some texture
So that reflects light a certain way, but you can't really apply a coating of white on two aluminium using anodization
So what they've done here is they've kept it silver
But it's a really bright finish and the white accents from the keys
Just make it look like a white laptop. The actual finish itself feels slightly different from the black razor blade
This has a smoother feel to it
And it also doesn't show fingerprints nearly as readily like any of those black anodized aluminum like you touch them your fingerprints show up
Really easily. This is basically fingerprint proof. It's tough to see any kind of smudging on this material
It's a nice material
The top surface is missing that glowing green Razer logo and instead it's been replaced with this more subtle polished silver logo
It still looks cool. And it's distinctly the Razer logo
If you look at it on the right angle
But it's not as obnoxious as a glowing green triple headed snake
The keys on the keyboards are white and the Razer Chroma lighting that goes through it. I think it looks really good
It's just something that's personal preference to me
But I love the way that the RGB lighting shows up on this keyboard
But everything else on this laptop remains the same between this and the regular edition
It's just the aesthetic is obviously different. Okay, last laptop. This is the P65 from MSI. So this is
I've saved this one for last because I felt like this is the one that kind of
Disappointed me a little bit if you're interested in white laptops
The P 65 might've caught your eye because it's a reasonably well priced laptop
For the hardware that you're getting in a thin and light chassis like this
The thing is the process that they use to make this thing white is different from these two. They're using some kind of spray
So whether it's paint or some kind of coating it doesn't look as refined of a product as the other two
there are parts of the laptop that looked like we could have used an extra coating of paint and if this was black it would
Have been able to hide those blemishes really easily because black paint tends to hide things and shadows and stuff
But because it's white those imperfections are more noticeable
And then another thing the trim on the top lid is silver and on the original gs 65, it's this gold color
But there's a lot of gold going on in this laptop as well
If they got the gold logo the gold accents on the sides
But that top trim and the trim around the trackpad are a silver finish
Which doesn't feel right to me and I know some of you guys are like who cares, right?
It's still an awesome laptops. It still looks pretty cool
But the thing is people are buying this for basically one reason aesthetics
Right, like you're purchasing these special edition or limited edition versions because they look a particular way
When you're spending that kind of money you want it to look as perfect as possible
Now that's not to say that the p65 is a bad product
It isn't it's a great product and it looks pretty cool still
But it's just not as perfect of a white laptop as the other two. I feel like these guys did a much better job
The other thing I want to talk about is wallpaper choice. So the acer laptop comes with this wallpaper
that looks
perfect for this color scheme
the bright white that looks like it's cracking out of those polygons looks awesome with the white and gold and even their software has a
White and gold theme going on
So they obviously put in the time and effort to make the special edition feel
Special now one thing I noticed that on all of these devices
Because the feet at the bottom of the laptop are not black they show dirt more readily than dark-colored rubber feet
So keep that in mind if that matters to you in terms of pricing
These are all new products and this one's actually unreleased as of today
So I'm not sure of the exact pricing for these I'll drop links down below for all three of them
So if you're interested, you can check those out ok
