Though, you can get the Surface Laptop 4 with AMD Ryzen 4000 series CPUs in addition to Intel 11th-Gen, which might be worth it to some. Still, you don't get nearly as many bells and whistles, including a MicroSD reader, Thunderbolt 3, or anti-reflective display. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 4 is also a decent alternative. The starting price is similar at $1,250 for a Core i5 with 8GB and 256GB of storage with many more configuration options. You can also choose from three different chassis colors, including silver, blue, or black, and get up to a 3000x2000 OLED display for $1,690.

It also has quad speakers (two top-firing, two bottom-firing), a fingerprint reader in addition to Windows infrared, and the same port selection sans a full HDMI one. HP also has the new Spectre x360 14, which does get a highly-attractive taller 3:2 aspect display. The XPS 13 is also a smidge lighter at 2.8 pounds (1.27kg) versus the Book 13 at 3.1 pounds (1.4kg). But pricing strongly favors Dell, which often comes in at a few hundred dollars cheaper than Razer, which is not insignificant.

The keyboard is also slightly better plus RGB is fun. The Book 13 also does better for audio with top-firing THX speakers rather than the angled-bottom firing ones on the XPS 13. Book 13 has a better port selection with full HDMI, Type-A, and microSD. These are similar laptops aimed at the same audience, but there are some notable differences. Dell's XPS 13 is usually around 15 to 20 seconds, but Book 13 does it in about 9 seconds.Īs should be evident by now, Dell's outstanding XPS 13 (9310) is the best alternative to the Razer Book 13. I'm not talking about standby to wake, which is instant, but rather hibernate, which is an extremely low power state that kicks in after a few hours of the laptop being closed for the highest level of battery saving (next to being off). What impressed me was how fast this laptop resume from sleep/hibernate to being logged in to Windows. You can read more about it in our Intel Evo laptops: What you need to know article, which does a deep dive into the certification.

Raw processing speed is one thing, but making Bluetooth 5, Wi-Fi 6, touch display, fast wake from sleep, nine or more hours of real-world battery life with full HD, Thunderbolt 4, etc., as requirements is excellent. The Razer Book 13 is Intel Evo certified, a list of Intel ideal requirements for modern laptops. SSD performance is also at the top of our list, with 3,500 MB/s for reading and a solid 2,350 MB/s for writing on a sequential task. Looking at PCMark 10, which tests mostly the CPU, the Book 13 (5,100) is just a hair behind the Dell XPS 15 (5,160), which is incredible. Combined with the new Intel Iris Xe graphics, this laptop is about twice as powerful as the Surface Book 3 15-inch in 3DMark Night Raid. In benchmarks, Book 13 (when in performance mode, akin to Dell) gets our top score for this category. Those performance modes, including balanced and battery saver, can be configured independently for AC or battery usage. Users can set it to "Performance" when plugged in and even manually control the fan speed, allowing you to crank that CPU if you desire.

While you can run the Book 13 in regular balanced mode or bump it in Windows 10 to high performance, Razer also lets you push it further with Razer Synapse. I'm not aware of many non-gaming laptops that use vapor chamber cooling as most rely on copper heat pipes.
Razer is well-versed in laptop cooling thanks to its gaming pedigree, and the Book 13 has two nice sized but quiet fans featuring a superior vapor chamber cooling system. Razer Book 13's THX Spatial Audio is phenomenal. Intel's 11th Gen is the most significant improvement in processor performance from the company in years, and it shines here.
