Switch 2 Purchased From Walmart Arrived Empty

Yup. FedEx stole a Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio ($2.5K) delivery. Literally dropped an empty box that was hastily taped back closed on my doorstop. Best Buy refunded me, but not before I had to file a police report. Thankfully, I realized I didn't need that expensive a*s laptop anyway and went to

MKBHD's video about the Mac Neo feels like he purposely didnt mention Surface laptops. Instead used

I love surfaces but the Neo runs circles around them at a far lower price. Saying the Surface Laptop 7 is a “10x better laptop” is just straight up false. The closest Microsoft ever got to a Neo in their lineup was the Surface Go and Go 2, products which, in part due to windows and accessories-not-i

MKBHD's video about the Mac Neo feels like he purposely didnt mention Surface laptops. Instead used

I watched that video earlier tonight. I think that video was more than fair. He brought up lots of really great points and literally explained why no Windows PC manufactured laptop is close. That includes Microsoft. Apple makes their silicon, Microsoft doesn't. Microsoft allows Windows to be modifie

Microsoft is officially cooked

Yeah. Microsoft probably doesn't remember the surface even exists. It's a side hustle for them. They keep launching random combos and then never follow up, like the surface go, surface laptop go

Microsoft is shutting down its flagship retail storefront in the UK

That's sad. The consumer side of Microsoft has suffered in the past 5 years. Products aren't exciting anymore. My beloved Surface Laptop 4 got stolen, so I bought a Surface Laptop 7. The SL7 got stolen in about a month after my SL4. I didn't want to spend money on a laptop that could disappear again

Rumors about the Surface Laptop

Yes, and Microsoft is probably in an even worse position than one thinks, they already nuked the "regular" SP and SL under $1000 as of MAY 2025 - well before all the escalations with these prices started. Yes, they introduced the downgraded 2025 (worse than 2024) devices to take some space in the un

Microsoft prepares display upgrades and two stage launch for new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop

They seem like they've all but given up on any creative applications for the Surface line. No Surface Studios, laptop or otherwise. No books. The Slim Pen 2 looks like a thermometer, and draws about as bad as one. Even the settings for stylus tweaking have been stripped back in Windows. A Movink 14

Microsoft reveals major price increases for all Surface PCs as RAM crisis continues

Same, i guess My Surface Laptop 3 needs to squeeze out an extra year or two longer until Microsoft figures it out lol. But the Samsung Galaxy Book 6 ultra is looking like a better option anyway.

Windows Surface Laptop 7 lifespan??

This SL 13 inch tear down shows the ssd being replaced. That’s in a different spot than the SL 7 13.8 inch ssd. Here is the Surface Laptop 7 video too. Note that the SL7 13.8 inch uses magnets for the bottom cover while the SL 13 inch uses clips to cut costs.
