Microsoft has announced the Surface Laptop SE. The affordably priced notebook will rival laptops running on Chrome OS. The Surface Laptop SE runs on the all-new Windows 11 SE, which is mainly designed for students. Hence, the Surface Laptop SE will be sold exclusively to schools and students.

The Microsoft Surface Laptop SE has an 11.6-inch TFT LCD display that produces an HD resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels and a 16:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by the modest Intel Celeron N4020 or N4120 processor.
