its kind of hard to call this overpriced when the specific components that actually get made for 13" gaming laptops are hella expensive. screens and whatnot. mainly cause razor are the only ones brave/stupid enough to do it. still the most powerful 13"laptop in the market tho.
Very good unboxing and initial review, Dad. Always impressive when a UA-cam reviewer comes out of pocket for the product they are reviewing. It would be helpful to hear that at the beginning of each review. I am getting very tired and suspicious of sponsored videos. Great to see someone more concerned about productivity than playing games. Give me a great screen, great audio, excellent graphics, and at this price point, in 2020, that is the baseline for manufacturers. Still need 17'' plus, with older eyes and poorer hearing folks. Best wishes to the new laptop. Stay safe.
I'm sure you've figured it out by this point, but the RAM on the stealth is soldered to the motherboard. Non-upgradable, only the storage can be swapped out :/
Am I the only one who misses the lit razer logo? I think they should've added an option to turn it off or made it rgb rather than removing it completely.
You can right-click on the taskbar, open Task Manager, click "more details", then go to the performance tab to check your specs and resource usage :> That way you don't have to dig through Windows' settings menu for system info :>
that big one piece is what they call vapor champer, like a thich heatpipe with more surface area. the ram is soldered on the mobo and its cooled together with the cpu, graphics and chipset under that big thick one piece xd. its a tradeoff but its smaller to solder the ram into the mobo than to have phisycal sticks with conectors and an extra layer added of thickness being that the extra pcb where ram sticks solder their ram modules. thats pretty much the reason why razer went not much upgradability on the stealth line up
Unfortunately, the RAM on most 13-inch windows laptops is soldered in place and non-upgradeable, including the Razer Stealth 13. To save space, they don't position the RAM DIMMs in a user-accessible location
It's insane how few videos there are on the newest Razer laptops, and I'd love to see an apples to Apple comparison with each similarly priced model from both Razer's and Apple's lineup, as I strongly dislike everything about my MacBook Air and I'm happy to see that there's an almost Apple-like build quality Windows laptop manufacturer. At the very least, I'd like to see Apple's highest performing laptop and Razer's highest performing (probably the 15" option, or the bigger if the performance differs that greatly from 15" to 17") laptop go head to head, so long as they're near the same price. Not sure if I'm barking up the wrong tree or if I should go pester somebody else about it, but if you're up to that I'd love to see it happen.
Considering it’s a similar size and weight to the Book, the MacBook Pro 13 and XPS 13 I’d love to see a comparison between gaming ultra books like this or the G14 vs the premium ultra books for video and photo work
I’m between this one and the new Razer Book 13. What do you think TB4 outperform TB3 with an eGPU. I know the speed it’s the same 40gb but with more PCI lines so can help in the bandwidth between the external card and the CPU. What do you think about that. Nice video by the way
been looking at the razer blade stealth for a while, don't have room for my own pc and I've saved up just enough to get a laptop on black friday/cyber monday. can't wait for more vids!!
Nice review Gary. In reference to Apple products, I'm not there yet. I purchased an iPhone 12 mini in the voice recognition was absolutely horrendous. I have an Android phone. Google Pixel 3a images works and works in works. I've always been intrigued by the razor blade stealth.
Is it worth buying this laptop during black friday sales time or waiting till the new macs or stealth 2021s to release?( if you want a productivity and gaming laptop)
wow finally something that is not an Apple product . it has been a while that we only have seen apple unboxing and review here. ok they are good compare to their previous generations . but please do review other brands too .
Woke up one morning, sat at my razer blade stealth 13 and boom the screen has completely dead. Never once dropped it. 🤷🏾♂️. I'm shipping it back to Razer for repair today and when I get it back I'm selling it and buying a zephyrus. Slightly disappointed in Razer as this is my second razer device I have to send in for in warranty repair. There won't be a third.
@@itstruethough604 I'm using an XPS 13 9360 rn. The bezels on this laptop are thinner than the razer and it still bothers me. Especially the bottom chin.
When you do a review for this laptop, will you test for ghosting? The previous model's screen had a response time of about 29ms, I'm wondering if they fixed it with this model or used the exact same panel.
Thanks for the video. I have a blade 15 (2018) version which is great but I’m interested in this one. I am waiting for a GPU stronger than a 1650Ti though.
RAM is not upgradeable. Soldered onto the motherboard. I have the previous model, early 2020, and upgraded the M.2 SSD to a 2TB. Physically, super easy, but had to jump through a bunch of cloning and partitioning shenanigans!
Hello just askin you or anyone here in the comments. I am thinking of buying a laptop since my current one is slowly breakimg down.... What should I get? Xps 15 or the razer blade stealth 13? Or should i be looking for other ones? Would be a great help for any good response thank you
@@MaximumBets Amazon page says available on 27 Nov. I think you can pre-order one right now. I am buying a MacBook Air though, seems much better deal for me since I have a PC too.
@@animeshmeshram5997 I’ve been using Macs exclusively for the past 14 years for development and they’ve been great but limitation of 1 external monitor with the M1 was a deal breaker for me. I currently use a 2018 MacBook 15 but I’ve finally had it with the crap keyboard. I’ll miss having 32gb ram but won’t miss the huge bezels and terrible typing experience. I hope I don’t regret going back to Windows lol. People say they have gotten their act together in the last decade so we’ll see. I’m waiting for Best Buy to go it so I can get the warranty just in case something happens.

DAD :"im not one of those people who say matt black everything'
MKBHD: hmmm
i was looking for this comment
What is that background windows 10 big sur.
One day they’ll be the everyday grandpa
It’s called pevver.!
Lol
7:26 I can't hear them over the sound of my own computer lol.
Super fans 🤣
16gb on the low end??
I always thought 4 minimum, 8 average, 16 gaming, 32 and up for workstation video editing etc.
at this point 8gb is minimum, 16 is average. and 32 is for gaming... some games are using up words of 12gb of ram....

You're one of my favorite tech content creators.
Well thanks so much!
if you like matt black, you're not boring, just too cool AF

The stealth RAM is soldered, unlike the 15”.

ram memory probably soldered.
i want to razer to put in amd ryzen processors to their line up.
then what with all Razer Core e-GPU, thunderbolt dependent, products?... Not seeing it any sooner
Mobile ryzen aint it yet like 2 years i guess untill its like desktop ryzen
It made me really happy when you were fascinated with the box. It feels good to know I'm not the only weirdo who loves packaging!

You make reviews so relatable..... we can surely figure it out.
Well thanks so much!
Considering it’s a similar size and weight to the Book, the MacBook Pro 13 and XPS 13 I’d love to see a comparison between gaming ultra books like this or the G14 vs the premium ultra books for video and photo work
the razer book 13 is coming out lol, smaller than the stealth targeted towards productivity
If you’ve watched any review on it, It sucks in terms of what you get in it.
Because it’s targeted towards the MacBook Air crowd. More for college students ect.
@@boyankukov8402 but it is more like a competitor for MacBooks and DELL XPS 13 so it is really great
I’m between this one and the new Razer Book 13. What do you think TB4 outperform TB3 with an eGPU. I know the speed it’s the same 40gb but with more PCI lines so can help in the bandwidth between the external card and the CPU. What do you think about that. Nice video by the way
I dont know, I haven’t had a chance to try it out, hopefully there will be marked improvements with TB4.
Please review the razer book 13 when it's released
Ram is soldered as far as I know
been looking at the razer blade stealth for a while, don't have room for my own pc and I've saved up just enough to get a laptop on black friday/cyber monday. can't wait for more vids!!
Ohh!! That's what I was waiting for so long! Thanks man!
can you have 2 HDDs or a full size 2.5" HDD? how much does the fan run and how hot is it?
Nice review Gary. In reference to Apple products, I'm not there yet. I purchased an iPhone 12 mini in the voice recognition was absolutely horrendous. I have an Android phone. Google Pixel 3a images works and works in works. I've always been intrigued by the razor blade stealth.
They need to make the 17" in mercury white color with white logo backlight option
Yeah that would be awesome
Is it worth buying this laptop during black friday sales time or waiting till the new macs or stealth 2021s to release?( if you want a productivity and gaming laptop)
What a giant power brick!!
Can you compare the dell xps 13 and this laptop. Or just tell me which you prefer cuz im trying to choose between the two. Thanks!
Same! Which one are you leaning towards?
You are smart...making a video about a razer but not the laptop we were expecting, thats how you cheat the algorithm
How long til we get the full review? I’m looking to take the bait on this bad boy, but I’ll wait to see your review.
wow finally something that is not an Apple product . it has been a while that we only have seen apple unboxing and review here. ok they are good compare to their previous generations . but please do review other brands too .
When is the review coming for the razer Blade 13
Lol he was searching for the RAM modules under the battery!

I'm shipping it back to Razer for repair today and when I get it back I'm selling it and buying a zephyrus.

You should check out the Razer Book
Oké, how does this hold is own against m1 MB air or Pro? Would be nice to have a “showdown”. Is the Mac a serious gaming contender now 😬
Great video please test how it performs in davinci resolve.
I think you should give an intro after you say "let's find out" :)
We want everyday dad merch!
A direct comparison with razer book would be great.
Your camera or light have some issue. When you show things from top it did not give complete view of the laptop.
I was really considering getting this until I saw the screen turn on. Nothing wrong with the screen...its just that the bezels take me back to 2015
What?? The bezels are absolutely fine...
the bezels are perfectly fine, you just didn't watch the video long enough.
@@itstruethough604 I'm using an XPS 13 9360 rn. The bezels on this laptop are thinner than the razer and it still bothers me. Especially the bottom chin.
Thumbs-up for the sound effect 🤭🤭🤭🤭
We are waiting for 12 mini accessories
Waiting for the new Blade 15 with 3080
5:17 Did the nvidia sticker color just change?
nice gary! looks like it'll be a good addition to your work flow
you need to double box lithium ion batteries above a certain size
When you do a review for this laptop, will you test for ghosting? The previous model's screen had a response time of about 29ms, I'm wondering if they fixed it with this model or used the exact same panel.
Thanks for the video. I have a blade 15 (2018) version which is great but I’m interested in this one. I am waiting for a GPU stronger than a 1650Ti though.
Who else is anxious bout the way he slams the packaging against the desk every ten seconds?
hey, just wondering, how is battery life? can it run a day at university without charging ?
Hey The Everyday Dad, went don't you try some laptops with AMD Processors like the Asus Zephyrus g14 ?
I think your top view camera need a zoom in. Thanks
I’m looking forward to the Razor Book 13. Hopefully someone reviews it soon.
RAM is not upgradeable. Soldered onto the motherboard. I have the previous model, early 2020, and upgraded the M.2 SSD to a 2TB. Physically, super easy, but had to jump through a bunch of cloning and partitioning shenanigans!
Was excited for razer book thank you for this video
I upgraded the M2 from 256 GB to 2 TB. (last year)
Does it hot?

how do you think the stealth 13 120hz would run overwatch 2?
Can you please make a video of the Omen 15? (preferably the base model w/i5)
Where are the other promised videos about the razer 15?
Dude, check out *Razer Book 13* which will go on sale on Amazon after 27 Nov, definitely better for productivity.
and cheaper!
@@mawdervaart nvm, macbook seems better lol
Where did you hear that it will go to Amazon after the 27th? I wonder if it’ll go to Best Buy also.

You should do a review of the 2020 Acer predator Helios 300
I have Acer Nitro 5 that I got in August. Still great in 2020.
The Asus G14 with 4900HS is a better choice in every way
is it good for editing 4k video ?
I wish they'd update the design to be more like the Razer book. Those bezels are SO MUCH better.
this is for gaming so 16/9 is the aspect ratio they need
Yeah I’d like an updated display, I really like what dell’s done with the XPS line.
Many GAMERS are Saying That Air 4 is not optimized.....There Are A Lot Of FPS drops........ Can You Test The Gaming Performance of Air 4 and Make A Video?
Yes mom. I want this for my google class to complete homework
Everyday dad jokes
The ones I’m best at. 👍
Can you help me to figure out it out if I can use it as my anly editing machine?
Omg!! Congrats on being verified!!!
For $1800 I’m gonna keep waiting. That’s crazy for a laptop!
Black Friday
Where do you find it cheaper than $1800?
You can get the 10th gen model with same 1650ti graphics card for $1300
I still love my 13" Quartz edition. 💜💜💜
Have you tried windows hello without the hat? When I wear off my eye grasses, i can,t login my pc.
does it still a fingerprint collector?
how do u even not immediately open that? I even here triggered cause i cant open that laptop
I also like thin portable machines......
The eye sees, the soul craves, and the heart ache
Bro i want it to build beats would dat be great? ?? Prices for it now thuo??
Why does the corner camera is so desaturated?
I believe the ram is soldered so not upgradable.
still 4cores/ 8 threads? ... G14 anyone?
Why did you add a fake green logo onto the Stealth in the thumbnail when the actual Stealth has a black logo?
what screwdriver do u need to remove the back is it the t5 torx
U change laptop 50 times a year ?
Every day dad : not matte black everything....
Mkbhd: no, that's illegal !!!
You can’t upgrade the ram is solder into the motherboard
is it 4k?
Please make a video on best gaming laptop under 700$
I just bought the previous generation stealth for 1200$ great deal I think
Interesting how the thumbnail has a green logo and the actual laptop doesn't. Weird huh
if i can figure it out, u can figure it out
Razer book 13???
