Comparison: M1 MacBook Pro vs Razer Book 13

Razer released in November Scanner Book 13A new laptop focused on productivity rather than gaming. Since it is similar in many ways to M 1 Macs that Apple also launched in November, we thought we would compare the Razer Book 13 to the M1‌ MacBook Pro.

As the name suggests, the Razer Book 13 is a 13.4-inch laptop that features narrow bezels and a matte 60Hz screen. It’s similar in size to the 13.3-inch MacBook Pro M1‌, but a little smaller due to the smaller bezel size.


Design-wise, the Razer Book 13 has a higher edge over the 13-inch MacBook Pro thanks to Razer’s narrow side edges. There’s a thicker frame at the top to house a camera, but the bezel still beats the MacBook Pro. Rumors suggest Apple is working on a new 14.1-inch MacBook Pro that could have a slimmer design, but for now, Razer is winning.

The screen differs significantly from the MacBook Pro screen because the Razer Book uses a matte finish, which can be nice in situations where there is a lot of glare. Of course, the MacBook Pro’s bright screen looks great, but it can struggle in bright sunlight.
