PROS:
- Beautiful touchscreen display: This stands out when comparing it to the MacBook Pro. The display between the Mac and the Surface is very similar but touch capability makes it easier than being limited to the touchpad only. I have to say my hand tends to stay on the touchpad anyways but the option of swiping or tapping the screen can make certain tasks easier to do. The laptop has decent brightness if you are working outdoors, although like pretty much any laptop you shouldn’t be working on it in direct sunlight for the best results.
- Amazing performance: I personally haven’t compared the Surface Laptop 2 side by side to the MacBook Pro to get a decent comparison but the Surface definitely gets the job done. Whether I’m video editing or browsing the web the Surface runs all of these programs smoothly. With at least 8GB of ram you can run several tasks at once without any delay, it stood up to just about everything I threw at it. As long as you’re not hardcore gaming on it the laptop runs smoothly
- Amazing design: The design has stayed the same from last years model. The metal design on the outside of the laptop gives it a very smooth finish and premium feel. The laptop also has the alcantara fabric around the touchpad and keyboard which makes typing on the laptop easier on your wrists. Along with the design the laptop is fairly light and easy to carry around without too much effort.
NEUTRAL:
- Battery life: The battery life is decent on the laptop. With the high end processor and display it makes sense why the battery doesn’t meet up to some people’s expectations. I can get through a solid 6 - 7 hours of web browsing and occasional videos on a single charge. The charging cable for the laptop is compact so bringing it along shouldn’t be a problem.
CONS
Thunderbolt 3 and USB-C: Despite the features on this laptop it lacks Thunderbolt 3 and USB-C ports. Although it’s basically an upgrade from last years model it would have been nice if they implemented both of these in the laptop, but personally it isn’t a deal breaker.
Windows 10 Home: This laptop comes with Windows 10 Home, not the Pro version. This isn’t any issue for me as much since I don’t use any of the extra features the pro version provides. But BEWARE, this comes with Windows 10 Home.
OVERALL:
This laptop should suite most people in their day to day tasks. The performance should meet or exceed your expectations if you have a laptop older than 4 years so if you’re looking for an upgrade this is definitely worth the buy. Keep an eye out for sales on the Surface Laptop 2 to get a even better deal for an amazing laptop!

Touch features are very responsive, display is crisp, the Surface Pen is proving to be something I will continue to use, the laptop itself is very light, portable & overall attractive, with a battery life that will easily get me through the day with normal to heavy use without dying one me mid project. One thing I must say about the speakers....Wow! Not sure where they are but they sound really good considering how small they probably are. Not sure the specifics on them but I think they were called "omnisonic" or something like that but playing a game or watching a movie without headphones is surprisingly pleasant. Nicely done there!
I honestly don't have anything really "bad" to say about this. I've been using the hell out of it daily & enjoying every second. If I had to make one change on my end, I would have gotten a larger graphics card so I could play Forza, but that's not a necessity. The fact that it is doing exactly what I purchased it to do AND MORE is a breath of fresh air.
Top reviews from other countries
The flaws of the laptop is that it has limited ports such as missing USB-C and HDMI. While the screen is touchscreen, it moves a lot when you touch it, limiting the uses to zooming in, changing pages in an application or going back a page in a browser. Drawing using the touchscreen is not recommended unless you flip it so the touchscreen is on your lap, but that might possibly damage the laptop.
Pros:
No bloatware from other manufacturers installed which helps keep things clean.
Keyboard feels good & responsive and felt material on sides is comfortable.
Screen is a nice high-resolution 4K screen
Very light to carry and feels solid construction similar to a Macbook
Cons:
Pricey compared to many other laptops of similar specs but when you go cheap you get what you paid for (like my old laptop)
Limited ports available e.g. no HDMI, only one USB port but better than Macbook in this aspect
Overall: Highly recommended
