Razer Blade Stealth 13

Slim, slick, and slightly gameable.

THE HYPE SURROUNDING Apple and its premium-priced products is often completely out of control, but there’s no point pretending Apple hasn’t had a huge impact on the look and feel of laptop PCs. High-quality unibody laptop chassis machined out of solid aluminum are now the norm among premium portable PCs, and that is a direct consequence of the design of Apple’s MacBook Pro models.

It’s therefore no surprise to find that the industrial design of Razer’s latest ultrabook PC closely mirrors the established Apple template. The precision-machined unibody of the new Razer Blade Stealth 13 not only adopts the same crisply beveled shape and hewn from-billet physical feel as the MacBook Pro 13, but it’s also within a fraction of a millimeter of the MacBook for width and thickness, and is just a few millimeters deeper too.
