Two-year-old Surface PCs get $300 price hikes as sub-$1,000 models go away
An equivalent M5 MacBook Air now costs $400 less than a similarly specced Surface Laptop, and nothing in Microsoft’s lineup comes close to the MacBook Neo’s value-for-the-money. Apple, unironically the value choice now, especially with the Neo competing iwth cheap plastic shell Windows laptops.

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 have the Neo and the Surface laptop 7 (and the latest surface Pro arm) No. The surface Laptop is not 10x a better laptop than the neo. Straight false. I am a fan of the whole Surface lineup, but Microsoft dropped the ball long time ago. Apple laptops since the M1 are much better, in both: value an

Microsoft launches Surface Laptop 5G pre-orders — reengineered from the ground up, and costs $1,799
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Surface Laptop 7 with 5G is not cheap. In fact, it's Microsoft's most expensive 5G product to date, starting at $1,799 for an Intel Core Ultra 5, 16GB RAM, and 256GB SSD storage. The 5G variant is also only available in the 13.8-inch screen size and weighs around 3lbs. Au

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

It’s wild how much more and more I am starting to consider a MacBook for my next Laptop. Have a Surface Laptop and a few weeks ago rage formatted the drive and installed Mint. Think it was another one of those full screen Office 365 ads Windows chucks out from time to time Mints been great in terms

Surface Pro 12-inch hands-on impressions: Microsoft and Qualcomm may have a home run
I'm not terribly impressed with the new devices, mostly because they don't fit my particular needs. However, the notion that has been previously expressed that Microsoft isn't serious about Arm is further dispelled by these new devices - and the fact that the business versions will also be Arm based

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
