Microsoft has rolled out the Surface Laptop Studio 2, and it’s not holding back. With the 13th-gen Intel i7 processors and NVIDIA RTX 4050 or 4060 GPUs, it’s pushing twice the CPU and GPU power of its predecessor. In a live demo, Microsoft showed the new device beating the M2 Max MacBook Pro in Blender, a 3D creation tool.
The laptop feels like a direct competitor to Apple’s bestselling MacBook Pro ultrabooks
Storage and memory? You can get up to 2TB of storage and 64GB of RAM. The 14.4-inch touchscreen display is back, now with a 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby IQ, and HDR. Battery life? Microsoft claims up to 18 hours. The device also introduces a neural processing unit (NPU)—a first for Intel in a Windows laptop. This chip accelerates AI tasks, paving the way for smarter applications and better performance.
Connectivity is also a strong suit, with one USB-A port, two USB-C ports, and a microSD card reader. Available from October 3, the starting price is $1,999.
Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Studio 2 isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a direct challenge to Apple’s MacBook Pro. From processing power to AI capabilities, Microsoft is setting the stage for a showdown in the laptop market.
