Microsoft Surface 2 Laptop Review
Surface Laptop Design
Microsoft Surface Laptop screams premium: It sports a sturdy aluminum build; you get a ‘multi-touch’ screen.
MICROSOFT SURFACE LAPTOP
Display, Graphics & Audio
The Surface Laptop’s screen is capable of crisp, vibrant visuals, while its HD camera works well for video calls when coupled with its dual-mics for clear voice pick-up.
It comes with a Mini Display Port that supports up to two 4K UHD screens when you need to leverage on larger screen spaces.
When seated in front of the machine, you get a spatial sound that makes it seem like there are additional speakers at the back of the screen.
Keyboard, Touchpad and Pointing Stick
A backlit keyboard that dims off when not in use but lights up as you touch its keys, as well as a sensitive large glass touchpad with standard gesture support. The area around the keyboard is covered with plush Alcantara durable and stain-resistant micro-fiber material—that provides a luxe feel under your palms when typing.
Performance
The machine runs on seventh-gen Intel Core i5 or Core i7 processors but ticks all the right boxes when it comes to executing all productivity and entertainment tasks.
Get a quick boot-up time of 15 seconds and an HD camera that runs Windows’ proprietary ‘Hello’ face sign-in technology that logs you in securely.
The piece de resistance of this ultrabook, however, is its Omnisonic stereo speakers that Microsoft has hidden under the keyboard.
Ports
1 x USB 3.0 headset jack, Mini DisplayPort, 1 x Surface Connect port, compatible with Surface Dial off-screen interaction.
Battery Life, Durability,, and Security:
Surface Laptop supports Intel’s TPM for hardware-level authentication and Microsoft’s BitLocker’s data encryption.
