![]() ![]() That was one of my biggest complaints before, so it’s great to be able to adjust volume or brightness without needing to squint. First and foremost, the keyboard lighting now properly backlights the Function keys, both primary and secondary labels. You sure can admire the way your Word docs zip around the screen, but it’s a subtle effect that’s ironically mostly noticeable when you find yourself slumming it with a 60Hz display again.Īnyway, I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that Razer also fixed two of the problems I had with previous Blade Stealth iterations. The 120Hz refresh rate is very smooth, albeit a bit inconsequential. The prospect of tossing the Blade Stealth in any old bag and forgetting it’s there is compelling. That said, I spent years on the road hauling oversized gaming laptops like so many cinderblocks. I struggle to imagine the person who would want a gaming laptop but absolutely can’t stomach the idea of a 14-inch or 15-inch machine. It shouldn’t be possible, and yet I hold the proof in my hands as I write this. That 0.6-inch height is particularly impressive, just slightly thicker than the 2018 model-except now there’s a dedicated graphics card inside. The 2020 Blade Stealth isn’t quite as small as its predecessor, but it’s close, at 11.9 x 8.2 x 0.6 inches. Razer’s knack for miniaturization shouldn’t surprise me by now, and yet it still does. We’ll discuss further, as we received the 120Hz unit for review. It makes day-to-day use feel a bit smoother, but not substantially so. While I love a 120Hz (or higher) monitor for my desktop machine, the GTX 1650 Ti won’t be hitting those frame rates often in-game. The 4K resolution is almost overkill for a display this small. Both the 4K and 120Hz displays will put a dent in the Blade Stealth’s battery life, and for little reason. Honestly, in this case the cheapest option might be your best bet. There’s not much of a price difference among the three, nor will the average user see much of a difference among the displays. The top-tier model ( $1,999 on Amazon Remove non-product link) features a 4K touch panel at 60Hz. Our review unit is the next model up ( $1,800 on Amazon), which provides a 120Hz display for smoother gameplay. The base model lists for $1,700 from Amazon Remove non-product link and features a standard 13-inch, Full HD (1920×1080) display clocked at 60Hz. All you need to decide is whether to spring for a high-end display. ![]()
