Razer Blade Stealth and Peripherals Are Here to Tickle You Pink
Razer is breaking its traditional black and green look for the Razer Blade Stealth by making it pretty in pink. The company has announced a new limited edition, quartz pink version of the Stealth, as well as a series of quartz pink peripherals.
The pink Stealth will only be available for a limited time in the U.S., China and Canada beginning January 29. The $1,599.99 laptop packs an Intel Core i7-8665U CPU, a 25-watt Nvidia GeForce MX150 graphics card, a 256 GB PCIe M.2 SSD and 16 GB of LPPDR3 RAM at 2,133 MHz. That’s the same specs as the version I reviewed in December. It had a sleek design and was good enough for light gaming, but the keyboard was shallow. The pink version will be available until Razer sells out of units.
Like the black-on-black of the Stealth before it, Razer’s logo will be pink-on-pink here, making it more subtle than the green-on-black versions found on its gaming laptops.
New Pink Razer Peripherals
The company also announced a full slew of peripherals to get the pink makeover. Here’s the full list, per Razer:
- Razer Basilisk mouse ($69.99)
- Razer Goliathus Extended Chroma mouse mat ($59.99)
- Razer Huntsman keyboard ($149.99)
- Razer Kraken headset ($79.99)
- Razer Raiju Tournament Edition controller for PS4 ($149.99)
- Razer Seiren X microphone ($99.99)
- Razer Base Station Chroma headset stand ($59.99)
- Quartz case for Razer Phone 2 ($24.99)
Unlike the laptop, these aren’t limited edition, so you can expect them to be more widely available.
These aren't the first pink Razer peripherals. There was a previous Quartz collection that included a BlackWidow keyboard.

Who is to say that this is not a manly pink? >_>21723072 said:Us guys have a lot of manly looking peripherals to choose from, our wonderful ladies need some love too.
But $1600 for laptop from a gaming brand that only has graphics hardware comparable in performance to a desktop GT 1030, RX 550 or Vega 11 integrated graphics? Sure, it's thin-and-light, but why is this being sold by Razor?
