The new 13-inch Surface Laptop features an updated port configuration with two USB-C ports, one USB-A port, and a headphone jack, while omitting the Surface Connect port. This model may better serve corporate needs, particularly in bulk purchases, due to pricing fluctuations influenced by tariffs and supply chain issues. However, for regular consumers, the 13.8-inch Surface Laptop remains the better choice for higher RAM, storage, and performance specifications. The refresh is seen as awkward with no major regressions, but still lacks enticing features for individual buyers.
The removal of the Surface Connect port limits compatibility to USB-C accessories, indicating a shift away from proprietary technology. This reflects modern design trends in laptops.
The new Surface Laptop caters well to corporate needs but may not justify its existence for individual buyers when compared to the superior 13.8-inch version.
