Microsoft today announced the latest Surface line-up – Surface Laptop 3 and Surface Pro 7, which will be available for pre-orders in Malaysia today onwards from commercial authorised resellers and authorised retailers. With prices starting from RM 4499 for the Surface Pro 7 and RM 5499 for the Surface Laptop 3, both devices will be officially launched in the market on 9 December 2019.
Surface Laptop 3
The all-new Surface Laptop 3 has an iconic slim, sleek and lightweight design but is now twice as fast as
previous generations, with faster multitasking and improved graphics.
The Surface Laptop 3 is now available in two variant sizes, 13.5 and 15 inches. The Surface Laptop 3 13.5-inch features the latest 10th Generation Intel Core Processor for improved performance, while the Surface Laptop 3 15-inch brings a larger display to the Surface Laptop family with an all-metal design and a custom AMD processor.
Separately, Surface Laptop 3 15- inch is also available with the latest 10th Generation Intel Core Processor.
The Surface Laptop 3 comes in two colour combinations, Matte Black and Platinum. The 13.5 inch variant weighs 1288g and 1265g for the Matte Black and Platinum colour variants respectively, while the 15-inch model weighs 1542g. You’ll also be able to choose between two keyboard styles, which are an Alcantara material, or a cool metal.
Complement your style with rich tone-on-tone colour combinations in Matte Black and Platinum. Surface Laptop 3 is slim and light — the 13.5-inch weighs just 1,288g and 1,265g for its Matte Black and Platinum colour variants respectively, while the 15-inch weighs 1,542g. Surface Laptop 3 will also feature two durable keyboard styles — choose from a rich, warm Alcantara material or a cool, new metal.
There’s also Fast Charging support, and Microsoft claim it can be charged up to 80% in about one hour.
Surface Pro 7
The Surface Pro 7 is more powerful than ever with the latest quad-core, 10th Generation Intel Core processor, making it 2.3 times faster than previous generations.
It also supports fast charging, and a feature called Instant On, which I assume, is to turn on the laptop instantly. It comes with a 12.3-inch PixelSense Display, and weighs 775g. Considering it’s basically a 2-in-1 laptop to tablet, you might be missing some ports. To remedy that, Microsoft have more options and accessories that support USB-A, USB-C and Surface Connect.
One of the unique things about the Surface Pro 7 is the ability to change from a laptop to table with their built-in kickstand and removable Surface Signature Type Cover. It makes for an interesting proposition considering you can detach it from the keyboard rather than folding it over itself like other 2-in-1’s do. As an added bonus, it also has Dolby Audio Premium sound. So that’s a plus.
