Excellent keyboard and trackpad, Bright, 120 Hz display, Strong build quality and clean design, Long battery life, Runs quiet,
Competitors offer more powerful processors, Runs warm under load, Upgrading SSD on your own voids warranty, Expensive
The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio has a flexible design for both traditional and touch-based computing, with a great keyboard and trackpad and a bright 120 Hz display. But if raw CPU power is key, look to competitors that offer 8-core CPUs...

The tablet positioning on this laptop is a lot more convenient than on a typical two-in-one,120Hz screen refresh rate,Good 1080p webcam
Stylus costs extra,Runs hot for very little power boost,Proprietary Surface Connect power adapter has a too-short cable,Fat screen bezels make the display look dated,Very limited upgradeability
Well-engineered – it's another keeper, Bright and accurate but reflective display, Interesting, flexible, hinged screen format, Thunderbolt 4 x 2 (and not much else), Great typists' keyboard and haptic feedback touchpad
No microSD slot (not an issue with Thunderbolt), Battery life won't be 18 hours – expect 10 or so in everyday use, Needs a TB3 or 4 dock at $500+ to expand its use
Stellar hardware design, Flexible screen positions, Gorgeous high resolution display with buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate, Large haptic trackpad is a dream to use, Excellent Pen support
Midrange performance, Heavy and bulky to use as a tablet, Surface Pen not included, Limited port selection, Average webcam

What I referred to once as the Surface Laptop Book Studio around the office still feels true. This is the niche product that, counter-intuitively, tries to do it all. Microsoft has never shied away from asking for a premium price where Surfaces are concer...
