Exceptional Performance
This Microsoft Surface Pro laptop boasts a Snapdragon X Elite 12-core processor, engineered for exceptional speed and performance. It surpasses the MacBook Air’s M3 chip in efficiency and ensures effortless productivity with AI applications, which I guess is a thing now. It comes with either 16GB of 32GB of memory (the one at $1,050 comes with 16GB of RAM), allowing for smooth performance across a diverse range of applications, whether your using them for school work, business or leisure. The storage options available include 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB so you’ll have plenty of space for files, photos, and more.
Just like most new tech products of the last year or so, Microsoft totes this Surface as being built for the new era of AI. The laptop supports Copilot+, Microsoft’s foray into the AI space which offers generative art from text image prompts and an the ability to easily retrieve documents or web pages which honestly just sounds like what your search bar already does.
Calls are supposedly enhanced with Copilot+, improving lighting, canceling noise, and blurring out distractions. Though all that was already supported, we’re all just giving it the AI label now for marketing reasons.
The OLED display is nice and large at 13 inches across. It has a touchscreen so you can go back and forth between interfacing it like a tablet or using the mouse and keyboard like traditional laptop—great to have that versatility.
There’s hardly any bezel at all so you really maximize your screen real estate while keeping the laptop compact. And the laptop itself is thin and lightweight, keeping it easy to bring back and forth from the classroom to the dorm room or from your home to a nearby coffee shop. Portability at its finest. The battery is reliable and long-lasting, able to keep your laptop running for up to 14 hours.
