That’s all you need to know about the Surface Laptop 5 right now. Microsoft has been using the same design for a number of years now, so those hoping for a refresh will be disappointed. The bezel surrounding the screen looks noticeably thick compared to the MacBook Air and Dell XPS 13. While the Surface Laptop 5 already has a good design, with a portable 1.3kg weight for the 13-inch model, it is starting to look a little outdated compared to rivals. Otherwise, Microsoft has opted for the exact same design which will likely draw some criticism. The only new addition to the Microsoft Surface Laptop 5 design is the new Sage colour option. Microsoft hasn’t altered the screen, with the 13.5-inch model sees a 2256 x 1504 resolution, while the 15-inch alternative has a 2496 x 1664 resolution. Microsoft has introduced Thunderbolt 4 support, with other ports including USB-A, Surface Connect and a headphone jack. The laptop will sport a 720p front-facing webcam with Windows Hello support. The Surface Laptop 5 will be available with up to 32GB of RAM and up to a 1TB SSD. There’s no option for a discrete GPU, so you’ll need to settle for the integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics instead. You’ll get to choose between an Intel Core i5-1235U and Intel Core i7-1255U CPU, although the 15-inch model is only available with the latter. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 5 will be powered by 12th Generation Intel Core processors. The 13-inch version has a starting price of $999.99, while the cost of the 15-inch model will begin at $1,299.99. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 5 will be available to buy in stores from 25th October 2022.
