Microsoft Surface Laptop (2024), Windows 11 Copilot+ PC, 15" Touchscreen Display, Snapdragon X Elite (12 core), 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD Storage, Black

This incredible, beautiful, elegant and productive laptop showcases what Microsoft is truly capable of, and I'm a Linux guy. I bought the big one - 15" screen, 32 gig RAM, elite CPU. It is a powerhouse of a laptop. Now - there is one con, but as time progresses the problem becomes less and less of a problem and that is the ARM architecture vs standard Intel x86/64. Basically, this laptop uses a newer, different CPU architecture, which means that many applications don't work yet (YET!!). Almost everything I threw at this laptop worked out of the box and worked beautifully. There were some older applications that didn't work (SimCity Deluxe for example). But and this is a huge BUT - as time passes more applications are supported (or emulated effectively) and it becomes less and less an issue. With the 1 CON out of the way, let's talk about how amazing this laptop is: Premium feel (shell and keyboard). As good as or even better than a MacBook. Yes, for real. Speakers sound delightful. The 15"-inch sounds like a big laptop but fits perfectly in my backpack and it is still light and small. I mean, unless you are a 5'2" petite tiny person I don't see how this 15" laptop is too big for someone. It is plenty fast for doing all sorts of productivity like writing papers, excel spreadsheeting, music, internet, YouTube etc. Understand this isn't a fancy Chromebook. Operating System / Applications are exceptionally fast. This laptop WILL make you more productive just by opening it. It makes you want to work it's so nice. Battery life is OUTSTANDING. If you aren't glued to this laptop for hours at a time the battery will last DAYS. Literally days. Touchpad is also legit. No problems with cursor moving around (palm detection) and typing. Just legit good. Even when watching movies it doesn't get hot. Temperature is steady and cool. I love ARM. In closing, get this laptop. It's nice. Really nice. Like honestly, the nicest laptop I've ever owned (I've had the ASUS ROG 2024, two Dell XPS 15's, Razer Blades, etc.,) For my fellow nerds in the crowd: VMWare & Vbox do NOT work. Remember that ARM is a RISC architecture and neither products support ARM (yet). Docker Desktop for Windows DOES work on ARM. Also, WSL 2.0 also works just fine. Also, with the advent of cloud, lightweight servers (I run a small cloud on my home network) we don't need powerhouse laptops anymore if you have supporting infra. When I'm on travel I just VPN into my home network and I have all the resources I need. So keep something light and portable to work from :)

I received the laptop approximately one hour ago, and I am extremely disappointed with its condition. The device is defective—it does not start properly and continuously displays a message saying “attempting repairs,” but never actually initiates. Additionally, I noticed that one of the rubber feet is missing, the box arrived scratched and damaged, and the seal was already broken. These signs strongly suggest that the laptop may have been used or returned previously. This is unacceptable, especially for what should have been a new product.

I was very happy with the quick ressponse on ordering and delivering the laptop. I needed a quick replacement for similar surface laptop that I accidently destroyed. The computer has functioned flawlesly and was exactly as described. The only buyer caution I would recommend would be to very carefully read everything in the description. I thought I was buying a brand new computer but upon receipt I discovered the computer was a factory refurbished computer. In the end it has not made any difference, since the computer out of the box was flawless and has functioned the same as a factory new computer. I was happly with the price considering I upgraded to 32 mb of ram and 1 TB ssd. These two features add to the overall cost but since I was replacing a computer I thought that expecially the extra ram will insure the computer should be fast and responsive for quite a long period. I will be happly when microsoft introduces new 15inch surface laptops to see what new features wiill be coming out. Overall I am very happy with the purchase considering I needed a replacement computer ASAP.

Love my surface world class I will only use them .

So far this computer surpasses my expectations at the price (currently 30% off). I understand why people don’t want the Snapdragon processors due to some compatibility issues but that has improved significantly over the last year. I wouldn’t buy it for strictly gaming or video creation, but I don’t think anyone in the market for that would look here anyway. Otherwise, the screen is gorgeous and for work, it’s perfect. I also love it for travel since it’s still a large screen, does just about everything I would ever need, and is incredibly thin/light. The raw power of 32gb ram and the elite processor means the computer handles anything I throw at it assuming it is compatible. Fully recommended as a buy.
