    Great hardware, but buggy software.

    Good laptop, expensive for what it is, and very, very buggy. Razer's drivers and Synapse software cause my system to crash, not sleep, shut down randomly, along with many other issues. However, when it's working properly you've got an ultrabook with Macbook Pro levels of build quality, actual gaming performance, good battery life, gorgeous screen, good inputs, and stylish design. Unfortunately, it's hard to leave a wholly positive review when core features don't work properly or at all, especially at this price.

    Razor Blade 13

    This is a great leap top! Very impressed with all specs inside compacted in for a small computer. I get it, it has a very low graphics card and 16 gigs of ram however this computer is meant for school and small gaming. If you wan to get high upgrades then this laptop wouldn’t be for you. I think the 14 in has better gaming upgrades than the 13 but I am not a full time gamer and it’s perfect for my needs. It comes down to what your preferences are. I have had no issues with it and runs like a champ! Again great laptop and do highly recommend it if in school and do some gaming that requires less robust gpu performance.

    Excellent gaming Ultra Portable

    Excellent ultra-portable with dedicated graphics card.

    This is my first Razer product and so far, it's been great with no issues.

    The Razer Blade Stealth is everything I wanted in a travel computer...long battery life (looking at 8+ hours when not playing games and/or using the dedicated graphics card), nice screen, and capable of playing recent games.

    I bought this laptop knowing I could play some games on it and with the ability to add an eGPU later to keep it "in the game".

    I've noticed no ghosting while playing games, though I don't doubt it might be there. I do want to take a look at the OLED version (non-4K, i7 11th gen).

    I do have some problems typing on the keyboard as I'm not used to something with such shallow key strokes and I find myself making typos I don't typically make. That being said, the keyboard is response and quick and once my hands adjust to it, I don't think I'll have any problems.

    If you need a laptop, this isn't it!

    Utterly useless. Not worth even a fraction of the money. This was the second one of these I purchased. The first one had a horrible freezing issue and immediately returned that one. I thought I must have just been given a 1 in a million poorly built laptop, so after returning that one, I bought another. The second one I have also freezes. The touchpad is glitchy and sometimes files don't actually save where I've saved them to. Do yourself a favor and buy any other laptop than this or probably any other Razer computer. I've been in contact with Razer to get a refund, due to it being past the time I could return it to Best Buy. I'm not sure that Razer will honor the refund though.

    Amazing laptop for such a small form factor. I have grown to fully love this laptop and even replaced my own pc with it because it is powerful enough to get any task done smoothly.

    Screen problems

    The screen has random horizontal lines appearing, and lately the screen shuts off. Used just for surfing and office.. never gamed on it or raised it to a high temp. It started having the problems 2 weeks after I got it... unacceptable.

    Best 13" laptop you can buy

    Awesome little computer. The OLED screen is gorgeous. Its perfectly quiet under light use and only a little noisy at full load. Plays older games perfectly. I got about 10 hours of battery life on it too with casual use. Its a light gaming PC, not a gaming powerhouse. If you are willing to accept that, you'll love this thing. I take it everywhere with me now.

    The Best Stealth Yet

    Razer has been refining the Steath year over year to the point where the 2020 Blade Stealth OLED is now one of the best all around ultra books on the market. This is an excellent ultrabook that has great build quality, is light weight, and very power for its size will running cool and maintaining reasonable battery life. The OLED display is beautiful and the very low pixel response time makes it great for gaming even if the panel is limited to 60hz. The 11th gen Intel Tiger Lake CPU is another welcome upgrade over the previous 10th gen Ice Lake CPU which sometimes felt underpowered.

    A Little Bit More Than Expected

    I am a photographer, video editor, and all-around media enthusiast. I was considering purchasing this laptop, but noticed there were not any reviews on BB. Due to BB's excellent return policy I thought I would try this model out.

    I wanted a laptop that first and foremost had a 4K screen with 100% sRGB coverage and would take up as little space as possible in my backpack.

    I had great luck with Razer's first 13" model and after a little calibration the colors where phenomenal. I first purchased a Surface Pro 7 which has a disappointing contrast ratio that was very visible. After deciding to spend the money in hopes for a better screen, I was pleasantly surprised with what I found.

    The form factor of this computer is very close to 13.3". It fits snug inside of a Thule 13.3" computer case (tried the wife's, now mine is on order). What I really enjoy about this laptops form is that the computer itself is really solid. There is no play when opening or closing the lid. When closing the lid, it is a very soft close. It has a mechanism that does not allow the computer to slam shut. The body is all aluminum and easily fits into a DSLR camera bag with minimal room needing to be allocated (a major feature for my purchasing decision).

    Photoshop and Premiere run just fine on this machine. The laptop gets hot, but not to the extent of the first gen Razer laptops. I shoot a 62MP camera, and also an 8K video camera. The laptop did not have any issues keeping up with rendering. Although, almost all of my work is done on a beefy desktop, I didn't notice a considerable lag between my desktop computer and this laptop. However, rendering times take longer as expected given the power difference. I was unexpectedly surprised at how well the laptop handled 4k playback in Premiere down-sampled from 8k. Also the laptop did not freeze in Photoshop 2020 or Premiere 2020 when I ran multiple tasks to include HDR rendering, time-lapse Rendering, facial AI recognition editing software or simple photo editing.

    I do like to play games once in a while, but the kinds I enjoy would run on a potato. This laptop had no issues running Starcraft, 7 Days to Die, or Diablo.

    The speakers are pretty terrible, however I use headphones 90% of the time.

    This computer mainly serves as my home-away-from-home machine, as I am in love with my desktop setup. After running a battery of tests and complex edits. I can tell you this laptop can keep up to task without any issues. Also, the screen is incredible after it's calibrated. It does just as well as my $1800 ProArt screens on my desktop. The colors of the screen have deep blacks, and perfect skin tones (again, once calibrated).

    If your looking for a portable semi-powerhouse of a machine to supplement your current media workflow, I would highly recommend this machine.

    Not What I expected, Very Disappointed

    Screen is smaller the 13.3 inches, it is around 12”. Computer heats up real fast while playing games ( Since the company that builds is a gaming company did not expected to heat up as fast). Wouldn't recommended, for that prize I would expect to get a computer that deliver what promises. Side note, you cant find cases to protect your laptop only skins and sleeves not even in razers website, which I personally dislike.
