This story is part of our complete Microsoft Events coverage At its 2023 Surface Event, Microsoft announced a slew of new products including the latest Surface Laptop Studio 2. While the laptop looks similar to the original model from 2021, it does pack some seriously good hardware making it one of the best 2-in-1 convertible notebooks on the market.
There’s also a jump in the graphics department where the Surface Laptop Studio 2 can offer up to two times the graphics performance of the MacBook M2 Max. There will be the option of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 40-series discrete GPUs which harness the power of DLSS 3.5. The laptop will be available with either the RTX 4050 or the 4060 and for pro users, there will also be the option of an Nvidia RTX 2000 GPU.
For I/O we have slightly better options compared to the previous-gen model. In addition to the two USB Type-C Thunderbolt 4 ports, the Surface Connect port, and the 3.5mm audio jack, the Surface Laptop Studio 2 also features a USB Type-A port and a microSD card slot. Additionally, the laptop comes with the Surface Slim Pen 2 which is always stored and charged under the keyboard.
