Shallow keyboard
No SD card slot
Not really a gaming laptop unless you invest in the Razer Core
Which still has no price or availability date. Keyboard not great
Big LCD bezel
Larger and heavier than competing ultraportables
Battery life could be better
It's bigger and heavier than 12-inch laptops from Apple
Asus and others. The thick bezel around the screen feels dated and configuration options are limited
Corporate gray models lack black models' RGB keyboard lighting
AC adapter occupies Thunderbolt 3/USB-C port
Seventh-generation Core i7 CPU overshadowed by eighth-gen "Kaby Lake R"
Mediocre battery life
Shorter battery life
Stock USB-C charging cable is flimsy
Battery life not as long as some competitors
Can't charge and use USB-C port at the same time
Battery life not as long as some competitors'
Price-to-performance ratio isn't as good as the competition
Or even the previous Blade Stealth

Battery life still mediocre compared to other ultrabooks
Somewhat light on storage. Keys have slightly shallow travel
Reflective Screen
Giant Bezel
Price
Loud Fan
No Windows Hello
Decent Trackpad
Battery life takes a nosedive with the 4K screen. The promised add-on gaming module still has no price or release details

Bezel is big (but not terribly so)
Razer logo still over-the-top for a laptop not explicitly gaming-aimed

Abstract: For more than decade, Razer has peddled aggressive, brightly coloured peripherals and PCs to people who cared more about frame rates and kill death ratios than mainstream appeal. But when Razer launched its first ultraportable laptop last year, it was a v...
The Razer Blade Stealth gets a larger screen in the same slim body. The new design feels more sophisticated and less gamer-y. Dropping the resolution from 4K means better battery life. Well priced for a premium Core i7 laptop
The keyboard loses its fun multicolored backlight, going white-only. Accessing many system options requires signing up for a Razer account with your email. Limited configuration options
The redesigned Razer Blade Stealth has a more serious, sophisticated look and better battery life, but also loses its singular hook, a million-color lighting system...
