That's never going to happen. AT least under razer's name. 1. The difference between 14 inch and 15.6 is minimal at best, if you want a bigger laptop the blade pro is the only option. Creating a new line would be too costly.

2. The bezel is there to add space to the main laptops body to fit a proper cooling system for the gtx 1060 and 7700HQ

3. See 2.

4. The stealth and pro offer 100% Adobe rgb models (see razer's website) with the blade having 100% srgb and 75% adobe rgb.[1] Having a 100% adobe rgb version of the screen wouldn't be out of the question.

5. 4k already exists on all blade models

6. The port selection is ok. I wouldn't be surprised if razer follow apple and adopt 100% thunderbolt 3 + power connector (current power brick is at 165W). Connectivity on the pro model is very good.

7. For razer this really isn't an issue they believe that most people would be using headphones.

8. I'm pretty sure windows has a feature like this built into the power menu?? The pro has a 1080 and the 14 has a 1060. Both feature the 6700HQ/7700HQ

9. Already replaceable. Uses Samsung pm951. (note: its a M2 storage drive)

10. Already exists

11. Already exists (note that the pro model has a "low profile mechanical keyboard" which received mixed reviews also rgb is standard)

12. The pro is 7.80 and the 14 is 4.10. Depends if you think the extra power is worth it

13. Not enough space on the body

14. Never gonna happen. Razer has been about thinness and performance since the first blade. If you want a thick laptop clevo and alienware exist.

15. You can turn the backlight off in synapse
