A versatile system, there’s a lot to like about Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Studio 2. However, the typically high price was one of our main complaints about the system last October. That sticker shock is a little less of a concern now that the laptop is on sale on Amazon. It has a price $400 down to $2,399. This is a new record low for a configuration that includes 32 GB of RAM, a 13th generation Intel i7 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 GPU.

Microsoft’s versatile Surface Laptop Studio 2 has dropped to its lowest price ever for a configuration with 32GB of RAM, a 13th-generation Intel i7 processor, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 GPU.
These features make the laptop more than capable of handling everyday tasks, while the included 1TB of storage should be enough for most people’s needs. You should also be able to run the most current games on this computer.
Microsoft says the Surface Laptop 2 will last up to 18 hours on a single charge, which is respectable. The system has a 14.4-inch touchscreen with realistic colors and a 120 Hz refresh rate. There is also support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. As for connectivity, you’ll get two USB-C 4.0 ports with Thunderbolt 4, a USB-A port, a microSD card reader, and Surface Connect for docking and charging.
We gave away the Surface Laptop 2 , I commend it for many of these factors as well as its unique design. Since the lid is split in two halves, you can rotate the screen 180 degrees or tilt it inside the bench. It effectively gives you the versatility of a 2-in-1 with the power of a mid-range laptop.
On the downside, the Surface Laptop 2 is larger than other 14-inch ultraportables, and you’ll have to buy the Surface Slim Pen 2 separately if you want one. That is, the laptop should be able to meet the daily needs of most people.
