My job is marketing and sales for a small company. I'm not an apple fan but would like the comparable to it for graphics, photoshop, etc work as well as sales presentations. I'm not necessarily interested in big storage but more the dependability, efficiency, visual quality and speed of the device. Which would you choose?
I've been researching the:
* Yoga 910 with 7th gen 7500U, 3840x2160 (4K) screen res, intel 620 graphics card, 16 gb DDR4 2133 mhz ram, 1TB SSD, 48W Li-Polymer battery
* Razer Blade Stealth, 7th gen i7 7500, 4K screen res, 512 SSD, Intel 620, 16 gb DDR3 1866 mhz ram, 53.6W polymer battery.
* HP Spectre x360 13t, 7th gen i7 7500, 1920x1080 res display, Intel 620 graphics card, 16 gb DDR3 ram, 256 GB SSD, 57.8W Li-ion battery.

All three of them uses the same integrated chip, so no worries there. Even though there is not a noticeable speed difference with DDR 3 and 4, I would probably recommend the Yoga. However, the HP Spectre has been getting great reviews. But that is only 1080p resolution. The Yogo is probably your best bet. It's strange there is a Razer laptop not aimed at gaming.

From what I read, the Razer Blade Stealth is being touted as the ultimate ultra-book with a optional Razer Core that allows a gamer to upgrade the speed and graphics card to a 'kick ***' gaming device. Whereas it looks like a unique and attractive device and could meet my graphics demands, I think the better sales presentation option is the Yoga 910. Thank you for the confirmation!
 


Let me just add to your woes by throwing in this 13.3" ASUS Zenbook at $1,049:
https://www.amazon.com/ZenBook-UX303UB-13-3-Inch-Touchscreen-Discrete/dp/B014VHVZFQ/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1479400851&sr=1-5&keywords=asus+zenbook+ux330ua

At 3200 x 1800 it falls somewhere between 3K and 4K and RAM is 12GBs. But it comes with a 2GB GTX940M card in addition to the Intel HD 620 IGP and a battery rated at 57W.

I can't tell the price of the other devices, but if the difference is +/- $50 then go for the Yoga 910. If it's more than that, the ASUS might be worth considering.

Best of luck,
