Razer Blade Stealth 13 (2020) - Finally Perfect!

Review of the 2020 Razer Blade Stealth 13. An expensive but powerful Ultrabook packed with a GTX 1650TI Max-q. Is it worth the price they're asking? Is this the best laptop? I also compare it to the Surface Book 3 and MacBook Pro 13.

I really like how you're testing the practical usage of the laptop besides video editing. A lot of youtubers test the video editing and processing experience to test a laptop which makes sense since they are youtubers, but most people aren't.

I really liked this kind of video. I don't think many tech KZbinrs give that sort of oriented recommendation + entertainment rather than just a bunch of number to tell how fast the laptop is. More of this in my opinion is what is needed.

@@Misss_Em If you end up getting the G14 (assuming you are talking about the rog Zephyrus) please consider disabling turbo boost for better thermals.

[@2392youngmoney]

Did you end up getting it? How is it? I’m doing the same comparison lol

[@DetroitFury]

Should I pickup this 13 inch for 4-6k raw editing? Or do I have to go for the 15 inch for editing when I’m on the go? Great review brotha! Waiting for Razer to send my review model😎

[@2392youngmoney]

Did you get the 13 inch in the end? How was it?

[@JesseProwisor]

Awesome review (again). ok... I'm the exact guy for the 13... but I need a 15. So XPS 15 or Razer (and which)? Looking for super good build quality... not ready to go back to Mac. Thanks for the advice!!

What’s the battery life like? I’m planning to buy as my main laptop for work and OCCASIONAL gaming, so you wouldn’t expect me to push this laptop to its max performance. That being said, would the battery last and overall longevity last?

Hiya, I'm a novice when it comes on to Laptops. But I do need a laptop that's excellent for editing! Would this be a good option?

[@mohamedkadhemmansour7058]

THe only reason i bought a razer laptop is because it was on a very lower price, something like 1900$ instead of the '2300$ + taxes and shipping". otherwise, the design would probably make a compelling choice for me but it doesn't beat the high price.

Amazing review. Absolutely loved it. Simple and to the point. That amd adhd tho 😂

[@27Binx72]

Even as someone who plays a lot of video games this is still very appealing if it works for most of the games you play. I play some PC games with friends and combined with a Switch, this is the perfect setup for me.

[@AKAvra]

I was debating buying this the last couple of days but your review helped me decide to wait one more year to see if they can do AMD.

[@iriditium197]

xD If I did wait, I would be waiting for the bottom bezel to go

[@Yinas]

am using the late 2019 model. looking at the new one bc of the fixes: shift key, and screen refresh (120hz). but i guess i am also niche, bc i want this for its power, yet still allows me to use USB-c charging only. so i only carry around a (quite strong yet versatile) single power brick to charge everything. including my mirrorless camera, and every accessory for both. allows me to do all photography work on the go, as well as gaming, and plug it in at home to my external screen (also via USB-C) with a single cable. if this had a Ryzen... well, lets look to maybe upgrade with next years model then :D

[@teebs90]

On top of the new fixes you mentioned, the processor runs at 25w now whereas they limited it to 15w on the 2019 model, which gives it a significant performance boost. I agree though, Ryzen would make this the perfect ultrabook!

[@MrDontworrybehappy10]

How do you think the screen colors are? I was looking for something with high colore range for photography, like a 100%srgb at least. This 2020 model seems ok but it's 96% if i don't get It wrong

[@penguin_edits]

Nice video man👍 got a good couple of laughs

Thanks man !

Should I get the this laptop for a bit of gaming and studying

[@daniellatter3828]

Would love to know of any tips you have on optimising the CPU on this machine. I’ve not done it before and want to get the most out of my machine. I bought the FHD 120Hz model.

[@dilass]

how would this compare to the Surface Book considering they both work well for creatives, are relatively small and are almost similarly speced?

[@nxrt]

How would you rate this laptop for a uni student going to study game development

I just came here for the stand? where is it ?

[@aquafina5381]

I was looking at this to use it as a College/ Gaming laptop. Use it for school when i’m there of course, and game on it when i’m home. Would this be a great pickup? Or is there other alternatives ?

[@Pedrojerico]

I'd suggest the Asus G14, i'ts a 14' with an 8-core 4900HS and RTX 2060 max-q. I think it's the best balance of portability and performance

[@TheGuitarjunkie64]

Perfect description in terms of the demographic that this laptop is aimed at . 👏

[@R4v3n089]

I have the exact laptop. Did you say you can swap out for a bigger storage??

[@DDannyrose]

How is the battery for this compared to something like the Surface Laptop or MBP 13? I've been hating my Lenovo 730 15" as a student with 3 hours of active battery life. I can't live like this!

[@Nad445]

Is there any big difference from the razer blade stealth 13 (2019)?

[@PapadakisNikolas]

what's your take on the comparison of Razer Blade Stealth to the Zepghyrus G14?

[@bewsket]

Since i bought the late 2019 model few months back, the biggest regret that i have for not waiting just a bit longer for this upgrade is the 120hz screen. The ghosting on the late 2019 is so bad that i just can't game on it without the external monitor.

[@glitchlife4639]

So, I have the early 2020 version, outside of the touch screen whats the difference? Specs side by side seem identical.

[@ManuelVacca93]

Perfect product, perfect review.

[@ChetanDarge]

[@jonyboyishere]

[@MaxItUpwithMarta]

I want a 13 inch, light weight, thin pc that I can edit videos on, what do you recommend?

[@shirokuro73]

I had the 2019 1650 and liked it. I had 2 problems with it - that crazy damn shift key, and I wanted a faster screen. They fixed both, so I have upgraded and don't regret it. Now I have a 2019 to put up for sale....... Should I have waited for late 2020 or early 2021 when they (hopefully) put AMD in this thing? Probably. Will I want that one when it comes out? Definitely. Will I watch your videos and lust over everything you review? Of course!

[@bartoszzabicki8151]

How about the fan noise when browsing the web , typing. I really like when computer is noiseless when doing basing things and of course I do not mind fans when playing games and doing stuff requiring high performance. But there is nothing worse to the vibrating fans when growing the web. How is it with this Razem

[@wazfang]

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣 that part when u mention AMD Ryzen 4800 is priceless. Good stuff,

[@qasimabbas5853]

Gpu gtx 1650 vs gtx 1650 Ti , how much was the performance jump ?

[@user-mv2qd6vr1d]

Hi!) Will there be a Zephyrus G14 review or a review-comparison to Razer Blade Stealth 13?

[@leledumbo]

I'm a right shifter, but I'd take that short shift key over half size up/down arrow keys. It doesn't take long to adapt as my Logitech K400R also has that layout. But when you have half size up/down key, it's harder to train my muscle memory and I keep pressing shift whenever I want to press up. For someone who types and checks for text a lot, moving from one line to another one by one, it's crucial. So, Razer is out of my list starting now, while Lenovo gaming lineup surprisingly returns as they realize that importance.

[@rae4977]

Is the 2020 stealth 13 for me? I play Valorant. I play at 144hz. Performance matters to me and I play competitive games very seriously. I already own a mid-high end gaming desktop and a 144hz monitor already. I am looking for a laptop that I can use to continue gaming when I am out, and also do other pc related tasks that I often find myself doing daily such as reading manga, watching anime, photo editing in PS and lightroom. as I said, I already have my primary gaming station, as such I do not need to buy a big and heavy do it all gaming laptop. Something compact and light, yet competent is what I am looking for. I would also like to note that a while back I did own a blade 15 for about a week, but I ended up returning to use the money on upgrading my peripherals and some pc components. So I know I don't really want the blade 15 again. In my case is the stealth 13 worth it? or am I better off spending the extra few hundred for the new 14" ROG zephyrus G14 laptop?

[@VorTexX993]

Im constantly hearing complaints from youtubers about the right shift key being too small, yet Ive never met a single person who uses it (both win/mac)... being from Europe, we value more num pad, because of the number row is usually being used for symbols for people who use English only as their second language. so we need something else purely for numbers... just my pov ^^ great vid as usual
