MicrosoftMicrosoft has given us more choices than ever with its Surface products this year. If you want a 2-in-1 tablet, you can now choose between a Surface Pro 7 or a Surface Pro X. If you want a traditional clamshell laptop, you can now choose between a 13.5-inch Surface Laptop 3 or a larger 15-inch model. I’ve already taken an in-depth look at the latter Laptop 3, so in this review I’m focusing on the 13.5-inch Surface Laptop 3.
The $999 ($1,599, as tested) 13.5-inch model is the more “traditional” Laptop 3, and I think it’s the one that most people should get if they are looking at buying one. It has an outstanding keyboard and trackpad; a sharp, bright touchscreen; a sleek design and sturdy build; and excellent performance for everyday productivity tasks, which is what you’re most likely to use a 13-inch laptop for.
The Laptop 3 isn’t without faults, however, and you can get better battery life and better port selection from other 13-inch Windows laptops, such as Dell’s XPS 13 or HP’s Spectre X360. It also has the occasional bug that will cause things to go haywire until the laptop is shut down and rebooted. Still, if those things aren’t deal-breakers for you, the Laptop 3 is an excellent, traditional Windows 10 laptop.
