Only look for these laptops if you have a high budget or have a niche need.

I glued the speaker grill back and it's "ok" for now. Decided to write this post so to give my experience to anyone considering buying a Razer book 13. I live in Europe, so I don't know if Razer's support is different in the USA.

After 4 months of owning a Razer Book 13, I do not recommend it.

Well at first the Razer Book 13 made a great impression on me (see my previous review for more detais). But now after 4 months I can say that although this machine is so great, it just isn't that great. First: The hinge. The tape that should hide the display cable now peeled off and stands right out.

For a $2,000 computer though, you really do not expect there to be this many flaws. Many of the flaws are just small annoyances but you add them up, realize they will never go away, and they become a big deal. Razer should have done a lot more quality assurance testing on the Razer Book 13. They market themselves as a brand with high quality products like Apple and then don't deliver on that level of quality with the Razer Book 13.

I want to preface this post by saying I really love the Razer Book 13. The 16:10 aspect ratio and slim design really fit what I was looking for in a laptop that doesn't need to necessarily play games.
