Announced earlier last month at IFA 2019, Razer will now be taking orders for its latest Blade Stealth refresh and it's going to cost you quite a bit. The Base Ice Lake SKU starts at $1500 USD while the GTX 1650 Max-Q version will be $1800 to $2000 if configured with a 4K UHD touchscreen.

I'd like to see a comparison of this vs the mag 15 vs x1 extreme / p1.

Battery life of IceLake platforms seems to be quite good, a bit better than WhiskeyLake. The major issue is with cooling, so in the end, even if Ice Lake has better IPC and can perform ~20% better than Whiskey Lake, in these small form factors the difference will be smaller.

The Mag 15 competes agains the Blade 15, not this. This is a 13" laptop with a discrete GPU which is a niche segment.

I wonder if the 25w ice lake version will perform better with cpu intensive tasks.

Another reminder that Razer asks a lot...
