The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga offers a higher-resolution screen with a 3:2 aspect ratio, which can provide more vertical real estate beneficial for productivity tasks like document editing or web browsing. It is also a 2-in-1 convertible, allowing for versatile use as a laptop or tablet. However, it may be more expensive, and the performance may not be as robust as the Razer Book 13, which comes with a stronger processor. While the Razer Book 13 may be somewhat less expensive, it has a standard 16:10 aspect ratio and isn't as light or thin as the Lenovo. The Razer Book 13 also has customizable RGB keyboard lighting, which the Lenovo lacks, and it comes with a slightly larger battery, potentially offering longer use between charges. If portability and screen aspect ratio are your top priorities, the Lenovo might be more suitable, but if you prefer stronger performance and value for money, the Razer Book 13 could be the better option.

The Razer Book 13 has a better screen than the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga for content creation, and software development.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga and the Razer Book 13 offer screens with high resolution and brightness, along with premium panel types, which are ideal for sharp and vivid displays, making them suitable for general use and detailed work in engineering and design. However, neither laptop is optimized for gaming or 3D applications, as they lack high refresh rates necessary for smooth motion rendering, which can be critical for these activities. Both laptops cover wide color gamuts, ensuring accurate color reproduction for professional design tasks, but this does not compensate for the refresh rate needed in 3D environments.

The Razer Book 13 and Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga and the Razer Book 13 are both fair for gaming and 3D applications as they are equipped with integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics, which are decent for light gaming but not ideal for intensive gaming due to their relatively modest performance compared to dedicated GPUs. Both laptops have screens with a refresh rate of 60Hz, which is suitable for general use and some gaming, but might not be as smooth as screens with higher refresh rates that are preferred for fast-paced games.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Razer Book 13 to be good for engineering and design, while the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga is only fair.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga, with its 2-in-1 design and high screen brightness, is well-suited for engineering and design, especially with touch capabilities for creative tasks, while the Razer Book 13's higher-powered CPU and slightly superior screen contrast ratio make it a strong contender for engineering software that requires more processing power and visual precision. While both have high-quality displays and sufficient RAM for multitasking, the Razer is a bit heavier but offers longer battery life, and both provide quiet operation and quality keyboards, which are crucial for prolonged work sessions.

Tom Brant | April 2021
"The ThinkPad X1 Titanium is a showcase of what Lenovo thinks business computing will look like in the near future. People want thinner, lighter laptops with high-quality screens and enough computing power to get their work done. The X1 Titanium achieves these goals with some controversial but innovative design choices, including a redesigned keyboard and a pared-down port selection."

"The Razer Book is like an XPS 13, but faster. The Book 13 combines the design philosophy and performance of a Blade Stealth with the 16:10 display of a Dell XPS 13 for an impressive piece of hardware. Office users who want something more stylish than the typical Dell, HP or Lenovo will certainly find themselves drawn to this Razer subnotebook. If your priorities are to have the best-looking and fastest 13-inch laptop in the office over auxiliary features, however, then the Book 13 proudly fulfills that niche."
