Is Surface a tablet or laptop?

When this question is asked, people are usually talking about the Microsoft Surface Pro. On its own the Surface Pro is a tablet, but when paired with an optional Type Cover and its built-in kickstand, the Surface Pro can be used as a laptop.

When you compare Microsoft Surface to other options, the flexibility is outstanding.

For a more traditional laptop experience, Microsoft has just released two new Surface laptops – the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3 and the Microsoft Surface Studio 2. With an aluminum shell the Surface Studio 2 is a durable, powerful laptop with 14-core Intel i7 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 graphics, and 14.4-inch PixelSense Flow touchscreen with 2400x1600 pixel resolution and 3:2 aspect ratio. You can enhance your productivity with Windows 11 on board, and the Full HD 1080p webcam has a wide FOV and Windows Hello facial recognition.

The Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3 is a lightweight, user-friendly laptop with a 12th-gen Intel Core i5 1235U processor and your choice of 8GB or 16GB of RAM. The 256GB SSD gets you up and running in an instant, and the 12.5-inch display with resolution of 11536 x 1024 and a 3:2 aspect ratio is perfect for productivity or play. The Surface Laptop Go 3 has Windows 11 and four ports for easy connectivity including Surface Connect, USB-A, USB-C, and a 3.5mm jack.

Can Microsoft Surface replace a laptop?

Equipped with an optional keyboard, the Microsoft Surface Pro can work well as a laptop replacement. All you’ll need is a wireless Surface mouse to create a portable workstation.

If you need a laptop that you can use on your lap for an extended time, the solid base of the Microsoft Surface Studio 2 or the Surface Laptop Go 3 are the best options.
