Samsung Display Begins Full-Scale OLED Supply for Premium Gaming Laptop Razer Blade 16

• Razer to unveil new premium gaming laptop with 240Hz and 0.2ms response time at CES 2024
• Razer Blade 16 earns VESA’s ClearMR 11000 certification for sharp, drag-free images, which is the highest rating for laptops to date

Samsung Display today confirmed that full-scale mass production of OLED screens is underway for the Razer Blade 16, a high-definition 16-inch OLED gaming laptop, which will be unveiled at CES 2024.

Razer Blade 16 — the latest offering from Razer, a premium gaming laptop manufacturer — is a premium gaming laptop with a 240Hz high refresh rate, 0.2ms response time and QHD+ (2560x1600) resolution.

The highly anticipated Razer Blade 16 recently earned the ClearMR (Clear Motion Ratio Compliance Test Specification) 11000 certification by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). ClearMR is a new picture quality standard introduced by VESA in 2022 and is used as an indicator to judge the motion blur performance of displays in laptops, monitors and TVs.

VESA’s picture quality rating, from ClearMR 3000 to 13000, quantifies the ratio of sharp to blurry pixels when playing a video with fast screen transitions. The higher the number, the less motion blur and the sharper the picture. Razer Blade 16’s rating of ClearMR 11000 is the highest rating for a laptop to date.

“With the Razer Blade 16 achieving the highest ClearMR 11000 rating, Samsung OLED’s outstanding picture quality has once again been recognized. We will continue to expand consumer choices and drive new trends in the notebook market based on the differentiated image quality and performance of Samsung OLED,” said Hojung Lee, Head of Product Planning Team for Small and Medium-sized Display Division at Samsung Display.

“The unparalleled performance of the new Razer Blade 16 laptop marries seamlessly with Samsung’s world-class OLED display technology,” said Travis Furst, Head of the Notebook and Accessories Division at Razer. “With the blisteringly fast 0.2ms response time and superior color accuracy that is not only Calman-verified but also custom-tuned at our factory, gamers and creators can experience a new level of graphic fidelity wherever they go.”
