Specifications

Manufacturer

Microsoft is very well known for its software, including Windows operating system and Microsoft 365 and Office productivity suites. But, they also make the popular Surface laptops and convertibles.

Series

Microsoft Surface is a popular lineup of mobile PC devices, such as the Surface Pro 2-in-1 convertibles and Surface Laptops.

The Microsoft Surface Laptop series blends elegant design with powerful performance. The Surface laptops feature vibrant PixelSense touchscreens, long battery life, and AI-enhanced capabilities that cater to both creative professionals, office workers, and everyday users.

Laptop Type

Laptop PCs with Windows operating system are the most common notebook computers, followed by MacBooks and Chromebooks.

The traditional clamshell laptop design, as opposed to 2-in-1 convertibles.

Performance

Laptops with standard performance are those with the widely used mid-range and upper-mid-range processors. They are an excellent choice for daily home and office computing, as well as slightly more demanding tasks like light gaming and light content creation. For hardcore gaming and professional content creation, high-performance laptops are the better fit.

Typical Use

The majority of laptops on the market, including the cheapest ones with basic specs, are suitable for the common everyday tasks like web browsing, emails, or document editing. Having a powerful and power-hungry laptop just to complete these tasks isn’t necessary.

Office and productivity laptop tasks typically involve word and spreadsheet processing, presentations, emailing, web research, and multitasking between business applications.

Laptops used for studying and online education offer reliable entry-level and mid-range performance, a good battery life, and support for multitasking and communication in a digital learning environment.

Web browsing and social media tasks don’t require high-end specs. They can be completed easily on entry-level and mid-range laptops with good network connectivity.

For professional content creation such as high-resolution photo and video editing or music production, a laptop with high performance is recommended. However, for occasional light content creation tasks like 1080p video and basic photo editing, mid-range performance is sufficient, too. In both cases, laptops used for visual content creation should have at least decent screens.

In most cases, coding tasks like web development or app creation aren’t overly hardware demanding. But still, it is beneficial if your laptop provides at least standard performance and 16GB of RAM or higher for seamless multi-tasking and running OS emulations.

Screen Size

This is a laptop screen size slightly smaller than the most popular 15.6″.

Screen Resolution

This screen resolution provides a decent picture sharpness and a lot of space on the display for the user interface and apps. It’s somewhat better than the popular Full HD. However, these resolutions aren’t as good as the premium-class 4K and similar.

Screen Features

Touchscreens in modern mobile computers support multi-touch finger input. On select models, they also support active digitizer pens. Touch-enabled laptops come in the standard laptop form with added touchscreen functionality or with 2-in-1 convertible laptop / tablet designs.

Displays based on IPS technology provide much wider viewing angles than the budget-class TN screens.

The 3:2 aspect ratio makes the screen taller than the common widescreen 16:10 and 16:9 ratios. 3:2 is more suitable for document editing and productivity than the video-centric widescreen ratios.

The 120Hz display refresh rate is higher than the common 60Hz. It enables smoother movement of objects on the screen. It’s important for gaming and watching fast-paced action and sports. The 120Hz rate also makes webpage scrolling much smoother than on the basic 60Hz displays.

Processor

The Snapdragon X Plus X1P-64-100 is one of the models in the Qualcomm’s lineup of power-efficient processors for laptop PCs. The ARM architecture-based CPUs enable laptop to have an extraordinary long power autonomy. However, some programs written for the traditional Intel and AMD CPUs may not work on the ARM chips or may have a degraded performance. The Snapdragon X Plus X1P-64-100 is excellent for the daily home and office tasks. However, the Elite series Snapdragon X chips are faster. Both the Snapdragon X Plus and Elite CPUs feature the Hexagon neural processing unit (NPU) that speeds up AI tasks significantly.

Graphics

Qualcomm processors that include the Adreno graphics processor units are all about power efficiency, rather than high graphics rendering performance. Adreno is, however, suitable for light graphics tasks, such as casual light gaming or high-definition multimedia playback.

RAM Size

16GB and greater RAM sizes are recommended for heavy multitasking, gaming, and specialized programs that require a lot of RAM.

Data Storage

512GB or larger storage capacity is recommended if you store a lot of large files and install many programs.

Keyboard & Touchpad

The keyboard has backlit keys for easier typing in the dark. There’s no separate numeric pad you can typically find on the right side of the keyboard on many laptop models.

Multimedia & Communication

Stereo Speakers

Modern mobile computers usually have built-in stereo speakers.

Web Camera in 1080p FHD

This is a high laptop web camera resolution in comparison to the common 720p. But, 1080p is low in comparison to common resolutions of modern smartphone front cameras.

Built-in Microphone

The laptop has a built-in microphone, which is a common laptop feature just like web cameras.

Networking & Wireless

Wi-Fi 7 802.11BE Wireless

The 802.11BE is the latest Wi-Fi wireless networking standard that started appearing in laptops in 2024. It’s also known as Wi-Fi 7. When connected to the compatible 802.11BE routers, the 802.11BE modules in laptops provide faster wireless connection speeds than 802.11AX Wi-Fi 6 and older modules.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth enables you to wirelessly connect the computer to Bluetooth peripherals like Bluetooth mice and keyboards, as well as to smartphones, and other compatible devices.

They feature powerful neural processing units (NPUs) capable of at least 40 TOPS, which let users generates AI images and complete other AI tasks fast on the computer itself, rather than on a remote AI server.

Customizable laptops allow you to choose different component and feature options before the purchase.
