Our take on the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 13.8" Touchscreen Clamshell Notebook

The Surface Laptop 7 is Microsoft's flagship clamshell, now built on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite instead of Intel. The 13.8-inch 2304x1536 touchscreen runs at a 3:2 shape that shows more of documents and web pages than a 16:9 panel, and the aluminum body carries a USB-A port, two USB-C ports and a headphone jack. Reviewers praise the near-silent fanless-feeling operation, long battery life and comfortable keyboard, while warning that some apps and games still run through emulation and that the port selection is thin. It suits students, writers and office workers who want a quiet, light Windows machine more than gamers or heavy creative users.

Questions and answers

Is the Surface Laptop 7 good for gaming?
No. Most games run poorly or not at all on the Snapdragon X Elite, and the integrated graphics are weak. Buy it for work, not play.
Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?
RAM is soldered and cannot be changed. The SSD is technically replaceable, but Microsoft's design makes it a job for a technician.
Does it run all Windows software?
Most mainstream apps run, but some use emulation and a few, especially games and certain creative tools, do not work. Check your key apps before buying.
How does it compare with the Surface Laptop 6?
The Laptop 7 moves to Snapdragon X Elite with much better battery life and a taller 13.8-inch screen. The Laptop 6 uses Intel chips and runs all x86 software natively.
Is the screen good for drawing?
It is a touchscreen, but the clamshell hinge does not fold flat and there is no pen in the box. The Surface Pro is the better choice for pen work.
What is in the box?
The laptop and a power supply. No pen, no mouse and no sleeve are included.
