Abstract: With Microsoft's Ryzen 7-powered 15-inch Surface Laptop 3 joining the Ryzen 5-powered 15-inch Surface Laptop 3 already in our lab, we have an opportunity to answer the question: Does the upgrade justify the price premium? Our answer: Probably not, though...
Abstract: Microsoft's Surface Laptop 3 feels fresh again, after two successive generations of relatively stagnant designs. Those eager for a larger computing experience now have a new 15-inch option, which also boasts something novel: a custom-designed mobile AMD R...
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
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...

The Surface Laptop 3 15in is often fantastic; it's finely crafted and comfortable to use, and that screen is one of the best in its class. However, that also makes it hurt harder when it settles for less in the performance and connectivity departments.Adv...
3:2 display is perfect for productivity, Ultra-premium design, Excellent keyboard and trackpad, Blasts through everyday tasks, Super fast charging,
Not suitable for high-end video editing or gaming, Disappointing battery life, Lack of Thunderbolt 3,
The Surface Laptop 3 15 is a 15-inch premium laptop you can't ignore; it's remarkably built and an attractive bit of kit. The AMD Ryzen processor options tackle everyday tasks with ease, but this isn't a device for high-end design work or gaming, while th...
