Razer has announced that they are releasing an updated version of their brand new Quad core stealth Laptop along with a Core V2 external graphics enclosure.
Razer Blade Stealth
The new Razer Blade Stealth comes with a quad-core 8th gen Intel I7 – 8550U processor. This new processor allows you to achieve remarkable boosts in performance with turbo speeds of up to 4 GHZ. Razer has also improved the battery in this laptop, which now provides up to 10 hours of battery life. 16 GB of dual channel RAM is also included as standard.
The Razer Blade Stealth features a 13.3inch Quad HD screen capable of resolutions as high as 3200 x 1800, IGZO touch-enabled display with 100 percent sRGB colour space.
What sets the Razer Blade stealth laptop apart from the competition is the portability measuring just 0.54 inches thin and weighing just 2.97 pounds. The chassis is CNC-milled from aircraft grade aluminium, and available in either black or gunmetal grey finish. The black version is one of the only ultra-portable laptops on the market to have individually backlit Razer Chroma laptop keyboard. The gunmetal grey version is equipped with a white backlit keyboard with a tone-on-tone razer logo on the back.
“Our engineers have done something truly remarkable with the new Blade Stealth by significantly increasing power while extending battery life,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. “The new Blade Stealth is the most well-rounded Windows laptop out there, and it can be further supercharged with the help of the new Razer Core V2.”
Razer Core V2
The Razer Core is also being updated. It now includes 2 thunderbolt 3 controllers. The external graphics enclosure comes with four USB 3.0 ports and Gigabit Ethernet for connecting a wide array of peripherals. This compact design comes with a 550 W built-in power supply. Because of the way the V2 was designed, along with the additional cooling fans that were added , you don’t need to worry about overheating.
The Razer Core V2 will be available at $499 and will be shipping soon in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, and Germany.
