Whether you like the Surface Laptop Studio or not will hinge on whether you do creative work, it's an expensive piece of hardware – and at 4 pounds, I would like to see a little more power under the hood. Still, as far as a Gen 1 device goes, it's none to...
As a self-professed fan of the Surface Book series of notebooks, it is a bit sad to see that device family depart. They were completely unique in the laptop world, with a style all their own. But there is no doubt that the Surface Book had some quirks and...

Excellent keyboard and trackpad, Bright, 120 Hz display, Strong build quality and clean design, Long battery life, Runs quiet,
Competitors offer more powerful processors, Runs warm under load, Upgrading SSD on your own voids warranty, Expensive
The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio has a flexible design for both traditional and touch-based computing, with a great keyboard and trackpad and a bright 120 Hz display. But if raw CPU power is key, look to competitors that offer 8-core CPUs...
Clever hinge enables new modes, Gorgeous 14.4-inch, 120Hz display, Long battery life, Excellent speakers, Comfortable keyboard and responsive touchpad
Thick chassis, Not enough ports, Performance is short of class-leading, Stylus sold separately, Expensive
With its unique hinge and powerful specs, Microsoft's Surface Laptop Studio is one of the best options on the market, particularly for creative pros who want more from their laptop...

Stylus costs extra,Runs hot for very little power boost,Proprietary Surface Connect power adapter has a too-short cable,Fat screen bezels make the display look dated,Very limited upgradeability

Elegant hinge design, Great build quality, High-quality display
Does not include stylus, Expensive for the performance on offer, Hinge is not optimised for the best drawing/stylus angle
The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio exists in a space inhabited by the likes of the Acer ConceptD and some of Apple's more specialist gear, where aspects of the design are so carefully targeted, a lot of discussions about price have to be left at the door...

Engineered for digital creatives, MPP stylus compatible, Good screen,
Fairly heavy, You can get faster specs for the price
There are many things that we really like about the Microsoft Laptop Surface Studio, chief among them the effortless movement between laptop and tablet, and the beautiful, fast display. However, this is not a perfect product for all users, and though digi...

Classic Surface build quality and attention to detail,Good keyboard and touchpad,High-spec screen
Expensive,Hinge versatility could go even further,Power ceiling isn't that high for a professional device
The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio is an ambitious and unusual laptop. Microsoft's love affair with hinges continues to burn away. The standard take is this is a hybrid for designers and digital artists, but it doesn't actually let you hold the display f...
Great 120Hz screen, All three modes work well, Impressive battery life, Solid performance
Expensive, Limited to three fixed positions, Not enough ports
The Laptop Studio is a compelling new addition to Microsoft's Surface range, but it doesn't get everything right.I'm impressed by the functionality available in all three modes, but some will miss the extra flexibility afforded by the Surface Book. Howeve...
