Microsoft Surface Laptop review

Fair play to Microsoft, the Surface Laptop might sound like a mess on paper but in the cold light of day it's a unique joy to behold. From its classy carpeted aesthetic to its new Windows 10 S operating system, there's a lot that's different about this Surface - but this is all to its credit. Want to get your work done? You've got both the apps for that and ample battery life to be getting on with. Want to unwind? For a simple spot of Netflix, the Laptop’s screen is a beaut. Whether you need to spend such so much to flit between those two uses is worth considering, but few other premium laptops hit this sweet spot quite so well.

Fab design; Windows 10 S works well; Great battery life;

Keyboard is a bit wobbly; Lack of ports;

The Surface Laptop might have been replaced with a new model but with Microsoft keeping it on sale at a lower price, it's an absolute steal. That is if you're happy with the entry-level model and the limitations of its specs like the Core m3 processor and limited storage. Still, jumping up to a beefier sku is still very affordable.
