As the saying goes if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Sometimes newness for the sake of newness is overrated. I don’t think Microsoft can get away with another year of this design, but starting at $999, the Surface Laptop 4 is still one of the prettiest, most pleasant to use laptops money can buy. A few quibbles aside, it’s one of the easiest to recommend laptops on the market. That’s it.Īnd yet I still consider this laptop to be near the top of its class. The most obvious exterior change on my 13-inch review unit - other than being a different shade of blue - is that it comes with a USB-C port instead of a Mini DisplayPort. Testing it gave me a serious case of déjà vu its design has barely changed since I first went hands-on with the original in 2017. The Surface Laptop 4 isn’t the most exciting laptop I’ve ever reviewed.
