Hi all,

Just a quick question and in possible need of some help/ suggestions.
My razer blade stealth (end of 2016 model) has started to warp in shape. Both the back plate and the keyboard deck are curving in the same direction, raised in the middle. This is caused my laptop not to be able to shut properly and when put in the neoprene sleeve or transported in my bag the keyboard puts pressure on the screen. This is slowly starting to lead to screen damage and I am worried that it is going to cause more damage and end up destroying the screen.

I am open to suggestions for solutions as of course the warranty has run out and I am not sure what to do.
Appreciate it in advance.

(sorry for poor quality pictures)
This final picture is as far as the screen will close

Maybe battery bulging, open it and take a look inside. If so, take off the battery ASAP and use without the battery until you get replacement battery, ac adapter isn’t too huge to carry around, or maybe you can use powerbank for light task on go (not tested yet but theoretically it should be able). If you use defective (bulged) Battery it may damage other parts inside, and if it broke the motherboard it’ll cost expensive.

Hi there! Let me help you out with this. Can you send over the serial number of your Blade to me through a PM? Let's continue there.

I unfortunately don't have a small enough screwdriver to take the back off. I'll have to go and see if i can buy one or order one.

I have pm'd you red panda.

Thank you both for your help
