The other biometric option is face unlock via the 0.9Mp webcam, which is also capable of outputting 720p video for the all-important video calls. Touch support is still here, but without being a convertible I found its usefulness to be relatively limited. Where you do lose out over the flagship device is the choice of screen sizes, so you’ll have to be content with a 12.4in display unless you want to pay more. It’s also worth drawing attention to the impressively slim bezels, which give the device a more modern look and feel than even the Surface Laptop 3. The 3:2 aspect ratio helps in that regard, giving a boxier look than traditional 16:9 displays and allowing more content to be displayed vertically. I’d therefore feel much more comfortable using it as a personal device instead of one I relied on to get work done, but that’s a matter of personal preference. My workflow often involves having multiple windows open at once, I found myself only able to comfortably one at a time. You might struggle in direct sunlight, though.Īny loss of resolution over the 2256×1054 Surface Laptop 3 is barely noticeable here, although the smaller display can feel a bit restrictive at times.
