Microsoft Surface Laptop (2024), Windows 11 Copilot+ PC, 15" Touchscreen Display, Snapdragon X Elite (12 core), 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD Storage, Platinum

I recently purchased the Microsoft Surface Laptop (2024), and overall, I’m incredibly impressed with its performance. The 13.8" touchscreen display is vibrant and crisp, and the Snapdragon X Elite (12-core) processor makes multitasking a breeze. With 16GB of RAM and 1TB SSD storage, this laptop handles everything I throw at it—whether it’s video editing, running complex software, or just casual browsing. Windows 11 runs smoothly, and the device feels premium and well-built. Battery life is outstanding, and it’s surprisingly lightweight, making it great for both work and travel. The laptop is fast, responsive, and does exactly what I need without any hiccups. However, my one gripe is that after spending nearly $2,000 on this high-end machine, I still have to pay extra for Copilot+. Given the price of the laptop, I would have expected this feature to be included, especially since it’s one of Windows 11's flagship features. While Copilot+ is a helpful AI tool, it feels like it should be a standard part of the package. Overall, I’m still giving it 5 stars because the hardware is fantastic, and it excels at everything I use it for. I just wish Microsoft would rethink the pricing model for Copilot+.

I was a little hesitant to move to an ARM based processor. After doing some research, watching reviews and looking at the applications I needed, I felt confident in purchasing. Everything has worked really well. I also purchased a 1TB micro SSD to put movies on as I plan to travel a lot. Battery lasts a long time without sacrificing performance.

I’ve been on Mac the past 5 years, but this laptop is really making me thinking of going back to windows permanently. Super fast, well built, great touchpad, seamless login experience (they go facial recognition, with multiple logins). Just a joy to use (after disabling all the ads… which only takes a few minutes)Upgraded the ssd from 256 gb to 1 tb myself and the process was extremely simple. I’m not a techie at all but followed a YouTube instructional video (saved $300+ dollars)

Great computer, fast, good display. I’ve had some issues running older games, which I’ve heard can be an issue with the new processors.

I purchased this Surface to replace an earlier Surface because of disk limitations on the old computer. I feel it is important to know, that buyers should not assume that all of their existing Surface applications and accessories will work on this one. I just found out today, from Brother, that this Surface, using the Snapdragon processor, does not support drivers for their devices. In our case, our printer has limited features but workable, BUT our scanner on the printer does not and will not work at all. The system is also much slower when booted when compared to the old. Beware of these short-comings before you buy...there may be others that we have not discovered yet.
