Summary
32GB RAM and 2TB SSD ship in the 2026 Blade 18, down from 64GB and 4TB in the 2025 model despite the newer laptop costing more.
Intel's Core Ultra 9 290HX replaces the 275HX, but the refresh delivers little extra real-world performance even with the same 175W GeForce RTX 5090.
Under 50 dB noise in Performance mode remains a standout, making the 18-inch machine one of the quieter, better-cooled options in its class.
The cutbacks are tied to an ongoing memory and storage supply situation, a notable drawback for gamers, creators and other power users the Blade line targets.
