Ever since Apple unveiled the impressive 16-inch MacBook Pro, we've been waiting for a "14-inch" variant that brought similar improvements to the smaller size.

Last month, we reached out to Razer to see if they would lend us a Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition for testing. With the 16-inch MacBook Pro just announced and on its way in as well, it seemed like the perfect time to see which top-of-the-line laptop would take the photo editing crown.
The long-awaited, long-rumored 16-inch MacBook Pro has officially landed, and it promises to fix all of the gripes that users had with the previous flagship 15-inch MacBook Pros while increasing performance by "up to 80%" for designers, photographers, video editors, and everyone in between.
If you're looking to pick up one of the (if not the) best photo and video editing laptops on the market, and your wallet is trembling at the prospect, today is a day for good news: Razer has revealed the pricing for its top-of-the-line Blade 15 Studio Edition "creative workstation," and it's more affordable than people expected.

Over the last year I have been slowly migrating from Apple to Windows, and to be honest breaking out of the walled gardens that I lived within (some known, some unknown) has not been easy, but it has been freeing. I have to hand it to Apple, they made a system, an environment, that has been comfortable and creatively useful for many years. However, slowly the sparkle that was once held in such high regards by artists, has begun to dull.
This post is a concise review of the touch bar MacBook Pro from a creative point of view. I use and like both PC and Macs and don’t have loyalty to one or the other. This has been a long time coming, and for good reason: I really wanted to put my laptop through the paces for a few months before I formed a true opinion.
