We were also impressed by its long battery life and excellent speakers. We gave the Surface Laptop Studio an overall rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars and crowned it with our Editor’s Choice award. By design, the Surface Laptop Studio’s unique Dynamic Woven Hinge lets you configure it to one of three modes: Laptop, Stage, and Studio. Performance-wise, it easily juggled the most demanding tasks. In one test, it launched thirty Google Chrome tabs and a dozen Edge windows instantly. The addition of streaming videos and playing music in the background while editing photos didn’t slow it down. Weighing in at 4 pounds and 12.7 x 9 x 0.75 inches, the Surface Laptop 2 is a portable and slender creator laptop. It’s lighter and thinner than the Acer ConceptD 7 Ezel (5.5 pounds, 14.1 x 10.2 x 1.1 inches) and Asus ZenBook Pro Duo (5.3 pounds,14.7 x 9.8 x 0.85 inches). It’s slightly heavier than the 13.5-inch HP Spectre (3 pounds, 11.8 x 8.7 x 0.7 inches). Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Studio is a wise choice if you’re looking for a versatile, creative laptop for yourself or Father’s Day.
