The Surface Laptop 3 is a striking-looking laptop that may disappoint with its performance.
Elegant metallic design, Excellent audio, Bright, colorful screen
Middling performance, Slow SSD, Unimpressive battery life for the price
With a large 3:2 screen, a comfortable touchpad, light weight for its size, and decent performance (powered by new partner AMD), Microsoft's larger-screen Surface Laptop 3 is an excellent mainstream machine.
Attractive, unassuming design; Thin and light for a 15-inch laptop; Bright, vivid 3:2 display; Comfortable touchpad.
Optional extras (such as the Surface Dock) are pricey; Limited selection of ports; No Wi-Fi 6 support.
As you might have noticed, each of these options forces you to make a compromise. That's where the Surface Laptop 3 finds its niche, because as an ultraportable laptop with a large display, there's nothing else like it.
Slim; lightweight chassis; Attractive metal design; Bright; vivid 15-inch display; Loud; clear speakers
Mediocre battery life; Underwhelming performance; Slow; expensive SSD; Limited ports
The Surface Laptop was a fine device when it launched, and the Surface Laptop 2 improved it quite a bit with the addition of quad-core processors. But both had their success hampered somewhat by some bad design decisions, which Microsoft has thankfully corrected with the Surface Laptop 3 family.
Thin; Portable; Incredible GPU performance.
Battery life is middling; Keys can feel mushy; Aluminum finish picks up hand grease fast.
