The Surface Laptop 5 is frustratingly close to being that universal leader among Windows portables that Microsoft wants it to be. Even if those things do irk a bit, I'd recommend balancing them against the exceptional performance, build, and aesthetics. If you never videoconference or if wasted space around your display doesn't bother you, you're looking at the best Windows laptop you could buy right now.
While those resources and ability to optimize for its own OS did show in aspects like the Surface Laptop 5's consistently excellent build quality and performance, it faltered when it came to basic modern necessities like a decent webcam and a contemporary display layout. This is a flagship laptop from the company that makes Windows, after all. I may seem like I had high standards for this review, and I did. Single Review, online available, Very Long, Date: ħ8% Microsoft Surface Laptop 5 review: Not mad, just disappointed Aside from the improved CPU, the Surface Laptop 5 is basically identical to the Laptop 4 and Laptop 3 – unless your old Surface Laptop is broken beyond repair and you want to replace it with a new Surface Laptop, there’s no reason to ditch your old PC for the Laptop 5. And finally, there isn’t a good argument for upgrading to the Surface Laptop 5 from a previous model. It’s easy to argue that the Surface Laptop 5 is too expensive for what it offers, but in terms of quality, you get what you pay for. As always, those who don’t care for a premium hardware experience can find options from other PC manufacturers that meet the same levels of performance for less. It’s not perfect, and as mentioned above, improvements like slimmer bezels, a 120Hz display, and better battery life could go a long way to improving the overall experience. With excellent hardware and build quality, the Laptop 5 is an all-around excellent experience. Ultimately, the Surface Laptop 5 still holds its place among premium Windows laptops.
