i got one to connect to oculus headset for PCVR. I am having trouble getting the power from the Nvidia to be working while i am in PCVR.. Any thoughts on how to unleash the Nvidia power when in PCVR?
Finally a review that doesn't just consist of reading out the specs, but actually talks about the things no one else is talking about, aka the things you wanna know before buying it. Thanks so much, this has really helped me!
This was a really excellent review. I'm getting mine on Friday, and at least from this vantage the only pain points to me seem like the lack of a USB-A port and a micro SD card reader.
Great Review, I am leaning toward the SLS. Things I really like: The haptic Touchpad, the Integrated Haptics, the staying with Vapor Mg for a majority of the device, the great keyboard and Slim Pen 2 storage, the modes. In all this looks like it would compliment my Surface Pro 4.
Thanks! For battery life, the i7 model that I'm using for this video did really well. Under normal usage, it lasted for 2 days before I hit a low battery warning while using 120Hz. My "normal" use may vary as I'm reviewing it and getting b-roll shots and things, but for the internals that this does have, it has impressive battery life.
@@SoldierKnowsBest between the base model surface studio and the base model surface pro 8 which one is the better buy? ill mainly use for some note taking here and there and watching content and web browsing. which one should i get?
@@Johnmims65 This response is very late, and you probably bought something by now. But if you don’t need the extra computing power that comes with the GPU, save your money, don’t get the Studio.
Great review! It's really a shame there is no SD card reader, would've been convenient to have. But regardless, totally getting the 32GB/1TB model as soon as it's available in my country. It's a bit pricey, but I'm buying it for my photography business, so it's basically -40% off price counting in tax savings. I recently updated the motherboard, 32GB of RAM, new AMD CPU and a 1TB M2 SSD for my desktop, but I've been waiting for a year now to get my hands on a graphics card to replace GTX 970. I'm tired of waiting, this machine is more powerful than my desktop so I'll just sell it, along with my late 2016 MB Pro 13". Ends up costing around 600€ to replace them with the 32GB/1TB variant + Slim Pen 2. Totally worth it. 😎
A lot of pro cameras are now switching to USB-C for connectivity with onboard storage, which is the future. OEMs should be pushing camera makers to adopt this quicker and maybe MS has decided now is the time to move with the times. Sadly, if OEMs like Apple and MS do not push for new tech, camera makers get lazy and keep old cheaper less efficient methods. The end of flash/SD is inevitable and we should wrap them up as quick as possible. It is not as if you cannot plug in a dock or dongle. Anyway the hypocrisy of everyone jumping on Apple for keeping Lightning for another two years (before it goes port-less) yet want e-waste due to using SD cards when we can have cameras with internal storage!
@@andyH_England I agree, I would be fine having just internal storage with fast wireless transfer - that would be my type of bread instead of cables. Expandable storage would still be required though, if not for more storage, at least for backup purposes. There are cameras with 2 SD card slots for the extremely rare case that one of them breaks/gets corrupted. But it is important, I can only imagine how furious some newly wed couple would be if a photographer lost their once-in-a-lifetime photos because the storage just happened to malfunction. But regardless, I'm going to use an SD dongle. I already have one because it's not like my MB Pro has card reader either, so it's not really a dealbreaker.
I love what M$ is doing with hardware, making sure Windows users have a refined all-rounder that gets all of the most important things right. A lot of reviewers seem to think that these convertible devices can only be justified if you are an artist or if you need the other modes. But weirdly, have the SB215, and I use its non-laptop modes maybe 20% of the time. I really like it as a laptop. And the same looks like it will be true of this. It's not just a convertible, it's actually a really solid machine, and I don't know of any other Windows laptop that has nailed the basics as well as this: webcam, display, keyboard, track pad, thermals-almost every competitor drops the ball somewhere. I know the quad-core chip and 3050 Ti are a disappointment for some, but I'm still running a 4790K and a GTX 970 on my desktop, LOL, so this will be an upgrade. And even for my video/graphic design/coding work, I think it will be more than enough. Especially considering the semi-luxury experience Surface products always provide, I just want a laptop I enjoy using.
Another point for hardware: Microsoft doesn’t really advertise it very much but the 32 GB model comes with a GTX A2000, a much more powerful graphics card. Although you do pay quite a bit for the upgrade, you also get a 1 TB ssd. On the whole, it feels like this machine is really meant to a well designed portable enterprise class workhorse. Definitely a step back from the “lapability” of the Surface Pro and Surface Laptop series, making more sense to use on a tabletop for advanced engineering students and professionals, as opposed to traditional consumers.
@@rocketcrazy3467 I'd just like to clarify for anyone reading your comment, or for yourself, the A2000 GPU is an optional business model variant of the 32GB model. You'll pay about 25-30% more for it too, relative to the 32GB 3050 ti. Cheers :)
@Rum there is probably gonna be an event this month (October) showcasing the new surface products. Release dates are probably gonna be known after the event, probably about a month later
Don't let the idea of a 2nd one intrigue you from getting this one. Right now it has some pretty good deals going for this + you have to wait a couple more years for the second one. You can always sell this for extra money going for your 2nd model
Very informative. Thanks! About the Control Panel comment, I think that it is a little bit of a generational thing. I'm in my late 40s, and I still need the old-school Control Panel UI to be able to quickly find my way around. The new Settings experience is great, and technically everything is there, but I just need the old version. That and MS Paint are the two old-school experiences that I cannot let go. Everything else in the new UI is great.
Nice review as always. I honestly can never use a windows tablet and call it a tablet. IPad OS and android tablets are far convenient for watching media and touch oriented than windows. The same go the other way, I can never see an IPad or android tab for productivity. If you want a PC then use windows or Mac; if you want a tablet then use an IPad or Android tab. For example watching Media, I only use Galaxy Tab as the apps like MX player which runs flawlessly with the touch but it's terrible on windows.
This would be perfect if the drawing/writing angle were a bit steeper. Around 20° is optimal. Maybe another set of magnets so you can set it where is covers about 3/4 of the trackpad. Nothing a stand won't fix though.
Would be a really nice product is Microsoft could get the glare under control On there displays. Apples anti reflective coatings are way ahead of what Microsoft is doing
It good for education, in my previous life in used to work for a secondary school. Microsoft give an prototype model. trolley size with an monitor, interactive. It was in Sandwell uk.
Thanks for your review! Did you end up keeping this laptop? I am on the fence when it comes to pulling the trigger on this latop. How was the battery life for you? Is the heat tolerable when you rest your hands on it? I have owned a Razer laptop in the past and I did not like the heat when I rested my palms on it.
Based on what I've heard from other reviewers, it doesn't get too hot that it's uncomfortable, and many say the fans stay quiet compared to many gaming laptops. Maybe the cooling system and thickness of the device are doing the job?
Nice review! I just got mine a few days ago. But I found the paint to have a rougher texture compared to my surface book 2 when it was brand new. And with the laptop studio’s bottom side being rougher than other sides. It’s almost like textured plastic. I also found several spots on the paint of the body and the keycap where there are particles underneath the paint. Do you have similar issues with your device? I was thinking of whether mine is defective?
hows he weight on this compared to the surfacebook series? I enjoy taking the screen off and using it as a tablet. with this you give up the stand alone tablet feauture
Nice Review. Are you still using it? Has your opinion about the Surface Studio Laptop changed after the many software updates? Would it be worth second opinion review? What changes would you like to see in a version 2 of the Surface Studio Laptop?
This product sucks. My machine is less than 8 months and it won't boot. The window logo come on and dies again. Microsoft is useless...I still have warranty but I found out that a lot of people before me are also having this same problem. which means USELESS Microsoft know about this issue and they completely ignore it. Don't buy any surface product!
Completely wrong, especially when you get the warranty. What single issue I've had with one of my multiple surface products was solved by that night. Get surface. Shit is good.
You can tell when someone is an Apple fan because they ALWAYS talk about using the trackpad on a device with a touchscreen and pen support. Sorry dude, no one with a touchscreen laptop uses the trackpad. Your finger or pen is 100 times faster...lol
If your work is mainly typing then having to keep picking up the pen or moving to the screen is less efficient than using a trackpad. So shortcuts and trackpad for laptop workflows is by far the best solution.
@@msp5138 This is definitely uncalled for. Why the need for toxicity? If I sit in a one on one meeting with a client, typing on my keyboard.. Reaching for the screen just feels off to me. Using the pen on the screen in laptop mode.. It just doesn't make sense, since the screen is wobbly. I love using the pen though, and I do use it on a daily basis. But it all comes down to personal preference. No need for pathetic comments like that.
Save for pen input, why would someone use Windows 10/11 as a tablet OS!! Windows is not optimized for touch, doesn't have good touch optimized apps, so what's the point of creating a unwieldy tablet that is not a good tablet!!
Why do iTrolls always come on Windows/Android reviews just to post nonsense? Please share ANY evidence that Windows doesn't have good touch optimized apps? Surface Go, Surface Pro, Surface Pro X, Surface Book, Surface Laptop Studio, Surface Studio, Surface Laptop, and Surface Laptop Go all have touchscreen and pen support. Now tell us how many of Apple laptops/desktops have touchscreens and pen support. The answer is ZERO because Apple is terrible at it...
@@RK-um9tu All the apps I’m using on my iPad run much better than on Windows ( that’s if the app is found on Windows store in the first place). Even Android tablets cant compete with iPad apps, so there is plenty of evidence to back up my claim. I don’t understand who is going to use Surface Laptop Studio as a tablet? And for what exactly?
@@RK-um9tu I agree with you that pen support for laptops is important, but using a pen with a laptop has never been practical. The Surface pro succeeded however in using a pen with Windows, because the whole computer is a tablet!! This Studio Laptop in my opinion fails as a tablet.
Apple specifically keeps Touch and Non-Touch systems separate, connecting them within their ecosystem so you can share files and stuff between them in a heartbeat. Microsoft mostly goes the 2-in-1 route instead which means you already have everything on one system. Windows 10 has turned into a very good OS for both Touch and Non-Touch use, the OS and Microsoft apps are well optimised for touch input but not unpleasant to use with a mouse or touchpad, making it suitable for tablets as well as PCs. I've had a Surface Book 2 and still have an iPad Pro 10.5, so I've used both systems.
1:47 "doesn't feel like it's gonna wear down over time..." ?!?!?!? How much did Microsoft pay you to say that? I don't care how cool you think that is you are rotating it up to almost 180 degrees, those cables ARE GOING TO FAIL AT SOME POINT AND THAT IS A FACT - and they are going to fail WAY SOONER than they would with ""normal" 90-120 degree rotation.. AND THAT IS A FACT TOO!
You make a lot of evidence-free claims. For example, no other reviewers have mentioned loud fans and the need for headphones. So if you are going to make claims that 1) might dissuade someone from purchasing the product and 2) run counter to everyone else, you better be able to support it with evidence. Otherwise, at best you come across as lacking credibility and at worse you come across as being a fanboy for another brand...
Not many reviews so far, more promos, but TheDigitalDigest mentions the heat and fans in his initial thoughts. The whole point of having that stepped design is that thermals are bad so it needs that active cooling. I accept MS did this for a reason so I do not object to the design, but saying it has no thermal issues on Intel 11th gen is raging against all known data. They should have waited for the efficient 12th gen arriving in 4-6 weeks (I think ultrabook first then performance version). In the UK this does not get released until 2022 so by then we will be into full 12th gen Intel so at the price it is a poor choice for anyone that knows about tech!
Huh? I'm a fanboy for another brand because I say the fans get loud? This happens with a lot of laptops when you're putting them under load. For reviews, a big part is up to the viewer to trust the creator. If you think I'm lying about the fans then you shouldn't watch my content lol.
@@SoldierKnowsBest I've purcahsed one in Australia as they have just been launched. Yes the fan it loud . That's a fact . Put I'd prefer good cooling so this thing will last . Coming from a Surface 2 I found it a lot more usable . Miss the screen resolution but The only content stuff is for music and family videos etc . Thanks for the review mate

Huh? I'm a fanboy for another brand because I say the fans get loud? This happens with a lot of laptops when you're putting them under load. For reviews, a big part is up to the viewer to trust the creator. If you think I'm lying about the fans then you shouldn't watch my content lol.
@@SoldierKnowsBest I've purcahsed one in Australia as they have just been launched. Yes the fan it loud . That's a fact . Put I'd prefer good cooling so this thing will last . Coming from a Surface 2 I found it a lot more usable . Miss the screen resolution but The only content stuff is for music and family videos etc . Thanks for the review mate
lol windows 11 trying to look like iOS os..so sad
This product sucks. My machine is less than 8 months and it won't boot. The window logo come on and dies again. Microsoft is useless...I still have warranty but I found out that a lot of people before me are also having this same problem. which means USELESS Microsoft know about this issue and they completely ignore it. Don't buy any surface product!
Did you have this exact product?
