Review: One of the Most Beautiful Laptops Ever, With a Price to Match - I've had this laptop for about three months, and this is the second laptop (after the Rose Gold MacBook), that I have looked forward to using day in and day out. It is a weird feeling, being in love with your laptop. Most of us have probably own at least 6 laptops in our lifetimes, so you can understand where I'm coming from when I say most of us use our laptops in a utilitarian sort of way: We use it because we need to, and when we don't, we just put it away without any thought. If you want a big screen, or to play games, you would use your desktop. When you want something portable, you would most likely use your tablet. When you want something on the go, we have all used our smartphone as our main day-to-day gadget. So that leaves our laptop, as more of a business machine for doing something that requires typing on the go, whether it be to reply to an important email you can't just use your phone for, or to type out something on Word or Google Docs. For many of us, browsing the Net just isn't as satisfying on our small phones, even if it is some 6.2" monster. There is something tactile, yet intangibly indescribable, about using our laptop Yet, this is the first Windows laptop that makes me look forward to using it each day. The main culprit: Oh that gorgeous piece of metal and color. To be honest, if it just came in silver like its Surface Book counterpart, I would have never given it a second thought (by the way, I have that too, but its novelty has since worn off). I got the Burgundy version, which is just so unique - where else can you get a wine red laptop?? Each time I open its laptop sleeve and pull it out, I have to pause a moment to admire its chiseled look first, before propping it open and using it. Not only does it look great, it feels great too. As you run your fingers through it, you will appreciate that you have one of the most luxurious laptops ever. No that is not a hyperbole. Another thing that make it stands out: The stereo speakers underneath the keyboard is the best I have ever heard in a laptop (I am overseas right now, and my Huawei Matebook X awaits at home with its Dolby Atmos Harmon Kardon speakers, so I'll do an update soon). It is loud and immersive - it can't get too loud where it would create aural distortions, so at its peak it is just awesomely loud and clear enough. I have a keyboard protector over it, but I always take it off when I have some audio playing - yes, the sound is that good. Touchscreen laptops might be a gimmick, but having it is never a negative. It is perfect for scrolling web sites. Once you use it that way, you'll never go back to scrolling with your mouse or trackpad again. Speaking of the trackpad, it's supposed to have the Windows Precision software aspect, but it still is goofy most of the time. Scrolling, switching, zooming, etc., still isn't as good as any MacBooks. And speaking of the keyboard and keyboard cover, key travel and sponginess are excellent. However, the keys are a bit more slippery than I would like, so I definitely recommend one of those gel keyboard covers to help you type more precisely. The screen is bright and excellent - one of the best screens I have used. The resolution isn't as crisp and nice as my Surface Book and Macbook, but definitely better than most. About that whole Alcantara-layered interior - yes it is beautiful, yes it feels great (no more cold palms in the winter). Just keep it clean (no eating potato chips while using it). Finally, the i5 and 8GB of RAM are good enough to avoid any hiccups in performance of your every usage of a normal laptop. This is not for gaming or video rendering, so if you are not expecting that, then this laptop's performance will not disappoint. The bottom line is you will buy this laptop for its looks, period. There is no value for this laptop - it is targeted as a premium-level laptop, not a value-level laptop. Any other normal laptop with these specs would be about $200 less. So you just have to ask yourself if the burgundy or slate blue color, and the style of design/craftsmanship are worth it for you.
Review: Sleek and Stylish with Strong Performance - I bought this laptop in June of 2019. This is the 1st generation of the Surface laptop and I got it for a great price because the 2nd generation was rolling out. My Surface laptop is Cobalt Blue with the Core i7, 8GB RAM, and 256GB hard drive. Got it for $725. This was a great price in my mind and why I went with it. I was looking at some cheaper laptop models (in the $400-$500) range, and wasn't really considering this level of laptop because it is normally in the $1000-$1500 range. But at $725 I decided to pay a bit extra for the better quality. One of the most notable differences of moving up to a laptop like this is the design. It is nice and slim, and looks great. This was important to me because I wanted something fairly sleek and compact that I could just put in my backpack and go (not a student, but I always have my pack). The screen is great and I love the 3:2 aspect ratio. As I'm typing this review, I can tell you that the keyboard is as good as people say it is. It's got great spacing and the button press is nice and deep for a laptop. This was big because I'm used to typing on a mechanical keyboard. The Alcantera surface is a nice touch. It is a smooth and soft feel and is something that separates it from competition. Some people have stated that it leaves some oil marks after months of use, but I've mostly seen that in the light grey color. We'll see what it does having the darker blue color. The touchscreen works great. I haven't purchased a Surface pen, but plan to in the future. The trackpad is also great and gives a nice satisfying click. The facial recognition for login is accurate and really fast. I will typically use my Bluetooth earbuds, but I was surprised at how clear and nice the speakers on this sounded. Overall, this laptop looks and feels like a great laptop and performs very well. I have had a Macbook Air for my job for the last 2 years, and this is just as good a laptop. In fact, it is probably a bit better because of the little things like a better keyboard and personalized colors. At the price I got it for, I would definitely recommend this laptop. Also, I should state that a lot of reviews for this laptop talk about the Windows S operating system being installed on it. That is no longer the case. My laptop came pre-loaded with Windows 10 Pro.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slim, lightweight, near perfect
*by D***T on August 9, 2018*

UPDATE: So, I'm about two weeks in now and have had a bit of time to run a few photoshoots into my Lightroom catalog to get an idea of what this laptop can handle and I'm a bit less than ecstatic. I'm not knocking a star off because Adobe recommends 12gb of ram to run Lightroom smoothly, so its no fault to Microsoft that I started to have some slow-downs when I got my catalog up around 1,000 images with synced settings, 1:1 previews, and adjustments gradients and brushes on many files. I've got my cache set to 90gb and it just tends to really chug when I need to do more than basic adjustments. Outside of heavy lightroom use and sluggishness, the laptop absolutely flies with just about anything else. I really don't have a complaint to share. It's been a dream. This laptop is fantastic. I bought the i5 256/8gb model with the gray/gold coloring. First thing that amazes is the weight. Just over two pounds makes this thing feel so incredible to carry around. I almost feel like it's a large phone sometimes. The design is sleek and minimalist. The speakers are loud and full and rich. The battery life is is superb. I may have a warped view on that because of the terrible battery on my old laptop, but I seem to notice 7-8 hours battery life depending on the usage. I bought this for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop use, but haven't had much time to put it through a lot of work so I will update when I know just how well it performs there. The only minor dislike is that the hinge is a little wobbly. For being touchscreen, it seems like it should have a stiffer hinge, but it's quite bouncy.
