Sign inI was debating getting a Dell XPS 15 (2019) or the Surface Book 3. What sold me was the 3:2 aspect ratio screen. I use the laptop for mostly web browsing and work related items. The screen is so much larger that a traditional 15 inch machine. It makes a big difference. Some of the reviews complain about the speed. I have not found that to be an issue whatso ever. I bought the 500g hd and 16 mb of Ram. The build on this machine is excellent. Very high quality great keyboard. What also sold me was the weight. It is very thin and light. The screen clarity and brightness is excellent. The bottom line is this is a thin, light, high quality laptop with large screen (for a laptop) that is a great all around machine with no fan noise. Yes it is a little on the pricey side but I expect to use this surface book 3 for the next 10 years. People will go spend 1000 for a phone and have it for 3 years or less.
I have had a lot of laptops over the years as kind of a tech junkie. Always like the latest processor. I have to say this is the best laptop I have ever owned to date. It is impressively designed. It is fast and sleek. I do wish there was an anti reflective finish on the screen and maybe an oled option but the screen is really nice. The size is perfect. I have the 13.5 inch model in black. The battery life is good and the speakers sound really good. The intel i7 10th gen processor is really good and the integrated gen 11 graphics from intel are actually very good. It is equivalent to an Nvidia mx230. There is really nothing but good things to say. It is a little expensive but it is worth it. It puts everything else to shame. Microsoft really is doing a great job with their surface line. I am very happy with my laptop. I am very hard to please. Did I say this was the best looking laptop I have ever had with excellent build quality. Go get one already!!
I bought the AMD 15 inch surface laptop 3 and was quite disappointed with the processor performance. 4k video playback was choppy and laggy. Exchanged it for the 13 inch with i5 processor, which provides better overall performance. If you’re going for the 15 inch one make sure you choose the business version with intel processor
I've owned the Lenovo C940, Dell XPS 4k and this laptop (Intel chip) is by far the best. Incredible touch screen that is bright. Great keyboard. Better screen ratio than normal 16:9 laptop. Plenty fast for any work related programs. You won't be disappointed. (and no...I don't work for Microsoft...it's that good).
The Alcantera is crazy comfortable. The screen is just perfect. The keys are a decent amount of travel and are comfortable to type on. Windows Hello is fast and good. No issues so far. You can barely hear the fan
I would give it a 4 out of 5 but plus one just for the aesthetics. Got the 13.5 inch model. Extremely slim, extremely sleek and of course extremely powerful. Battery life is awesome, charges super fast, runs things smoothly. Though there are minor software glitches here and there but nothing you can't get fixed. Currently I have an issue with minor brightness flickering in night mode and would get it fixed soon. Windows hello is blazing fast, audio output is remarkable, no heating issues, and again, it looks stunning!
Gets REALLY hot and the battery doesn’t last long. Kind of a disappointment considering how expensive it is.
I got this laptop to use for college, and absolutely loved the sleek design, long battery life, beautiful screen resolution etc., but within less than two weeks of owning the laptop, I opened it up one morning and there was a large crack in the screen. For such an expensive laptop, this was incredibly disappointing.
It took less than 24 hours to decide that this just wasn't going to be the laptop for me. I thought I'd enjoy the matte black metal, but it's remarkably bad about showing fingerprint and hand marks - to a crazy degree. The keyboard also feels weird and kind of mushy to me, compared to the laptop I came from. It's hard to explain, but the experience wasn't very pleasant. Then there's the proprietary charger, lack of thunderbolt 3, only one of each of the two types of USB ports, and the price premium you're paying to have the same hardware as all the competitors just in a body with the Microsoft logo on it. It's too hard to justify the brand premium with all the corners it feels like they cut.
