The editors didn't like

  • I'm not a fan of tablet cameras (seriously
  • Shoot your vacation photos with something better) and the Surface 3's shooter is mediocre at best. Medium-brightness scenes photograph okay
  • But the sensor just falls flat on bright colors and surfaces. Meh
  • The
  • Intel Atom x7 not up for all tasks
  • Kickstand only has two positions
  • Updating experience was horrific
  • A bit heavy and thick for a tablet
  • Complete package with Type Cover comparatively expensive
  • Use on the lap not really convenient
  • No maintainability/upgradeability
  • Bottleneck eMMC storage solution
  • Very long charging times
  • Atom is fast enough
  • But still not really fast
  • Subpar Storage performance
  • Pricey with extras
  • Type Cover's cramped trackpad
  • Charging takes really long
  • WiFi speeds were slower than expected

  • I'm required to disclose a relationship between our site and Intel. This could include the Intel Corporation providing us w/content

  • Trading down to a low-power processor means this isn't a full-time PC. The clever keyboard case is still sold separately
  • And costs a lot compared to the base hardware. The kickstand has only three preset angles
  • $499 advertised price is currently just for the tablet
  • Battery life is actually less than the Surface Pro 3
  • Limited to Microsoft Office
  • Web browsing
  • Some basic games and apps
  • It's Intel Atom
  • So it's not nearly as fast as an Intel Core i machine like Surface Pro 3. Kickstand loses the Pro model's infinite positions
  • Pricey
  • Plastic construction
  • No angle adjustment
  • Limited options for monitor and audio connections
  • Lock slot only secures the dock itself
  • Not the tablet
  • Speakers or headphones required for audio
  • Still heavy as a tablet
  • $499 base model has only 2GB of RAM
  • 64GB storage
  • Total with 4GB RAM
  • Keyboard
  • And stylus is $779
  • Awkward lap experience
  • Slow storage
  • Keyboard not included
  • Type Cover is an essential accessory
  • Heavy for handheld use
  • Weak on-screen keyboard
  • Type Cover and Surface Pen sold separately
  • Atom processor can't compete with Intel Core CPUs
  • Power connector is loose and bulky
  • Built-in kickstand offers limited adjustability
  • Still out of many people's price range. Slightly underpowered for real laptop work. Windows still isn't a touchfriendly operating system. Tweener size is too big for tablets and too small for laptops
  • Awkward hardware for laptop use with small trackpad
  • Performance isn't as good as similarly priced laptops
  • Weak touch apps for tablet use
  • Some comfort issues
  • Uncompetitive battery life
  • Lacking support for AptX
  • AAC
  • Or LDAC for higher-quality sound
  • Sound lacks refinement and treble energy
  • Worldclass build and design
  • Fullsized USB and kickstand prove invaluable for productivity
  • Decent performance
  • All things considered
  • Excellent display
  • Base unit's 2GB of RAM low for a device in this class
  • Win 8.1 and core apps take up too much space
  • Can be sluggish with heavier operations
  • 64GB variant offers very little free space
  • Speakers sound flat
  • Camera performs poorly under low light
  • Exceptionally long charging time
  • Typing on your lap
  • Type cover is pricey
  • Pen not included
  • Type Cover is not included and is sold as an expensive (yet musthave) $130 accessory. Not great as a laptop. Battery life is somewhat disappointing.
  • Keyboard is another $130
  • Entry model has only 2GB RAM
  • Not powerful enough for anything beyond basic computing
  • Relatively loud coil whine
  • Difficult-to-open case gets in the way of repairs and upgrades
  • Poor I/O
  • Throttling - also during graphics loads
  • High premium for the i7

  • Design, Gewicht, Akkulaufzeit, Tastatur, Touchpad
  • Kratzanfälligkeit, Tastatur-Cover, Konnektivität
  • Der Surface Laptop bereitete uns im Test eine Menge Freude. Die dünne Bauweise und das gute Display könnten noch so manche neidische Blicke auf sich ziehen. Von der allgemeinen Systemleistung, der Abwärme und der Lautstärke gibt bei unserer Konfiguration...
