Razer Book 13 review

Share:

The Razer Book 13 breaks new ground for the gaming tech company: it's the first productivity laptop that the company has ever released. When it was first announced, you wouldn't have been crazy to ask why Razer was getting into the already crowded market dominated by the Dell XPS 13 and the Macbook Air with M1, two of the best laptops on the market today.

But now that it's here, I get it. Razer's finally got a laptop with the long battery life to compete with those top-tier laptops, and it's got the productivity power too. Plus, it's got one thing the XPS 13 and MacBook Air do not: customizable per-key RGB lighting, which is a huge deal to some. Unfortunately, you're going to be spending a little to a lot more, as those bright lights apparently don't come cheap.

That said, this Razer Book 13 review will show why it's definitely worthy of a spot on our best laptops list, but it would have ranked higher had its screen been brighter.
