The new Razer Blade Stealth was just announced and despite the smaller form factor, it can deliver a solid 4K gaming experience at under 3lbs.

With the recent refresh of the Razer Blade, many people were expecting refreshes for the other models in Razer's laptop lineup. Today, Razer announced the new Razer Blade Stealth as well as specifications regarding the laptops new smaller and lighter design.

Despite having a smaller form factor, the Razer Blade Stealth packs a tiny (but powerful) punch that should help you achieve better performance when space is an issue. The laptop stands out from others in the Razer lineup as being the smallest option for a gamer on the move. With a 13-inch screen and more than half an inch being chopped off the side, the Blade Stealth is designed for everything from classrooms to the folding tray tables on flights.

Some of the most notable changes include a push towards a better all-around display. The most expensive version of the Blade Stealth comes with a 4K touchscreen that is capable of delivering 100 percent of the SRGB spectrum. That means it's great for professionals too. Having the full spectrum of SRGB means that you can easily transition from gaming to editing pictures and video while maintaining quality in each.

The hardware specs can be found below:

8th Gen Intel Core i7-8565U (4 core) @ up to 4.6GHZ
Intel UHD Graphics 620 / NVIDIA GeForce MX150 4 GB GDDR5
16 GB of DDR3 RAM
512GB SSD (upgradable)

The laptop features two USB 3.1 ports, a 3.5mm headphone/mic port as well as two USB-C ports on each side for Thunderbolt 3 and Power. The speakers that come built-in support Dolby Atmos. The laptop weighs in at 2.82 pounds and is made from a CNC Aluminum with anodized finish meaning you'll barely notice it in your backpack and it'll feel more durable since it's made from one giant piece of metal. The laptop itself has notably smaller bezzles to outline the new display, but a bigger chin.

There are three different models of the Razer Blade Stealth. They begin at $1399 for the cheapest model and go all the way up to $1899 if you want the 4K model with the most memory.
