Microsoft Surface Laptop 11Th Gen

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)

This cpu is amazing. If you bought 11th gen....I feel for you. Chip runs great, temps are reasonable(using a 360 AIO). If you leave it at stock performance it great. Once you start overclocking, while there is some headroom, you will need pretty good cooling. Overall I'm very happy. I have this and a 12600k. If you are on a budget, that is really the cpu to get in my opinion. I have no need for the i9. It has a bit higher clocks and more E-cores. To me, nothing to get too excited about. I just hope Intel stays on this socket for 13th gen. From what I've read, that is the plan, but Intel hasn't really said anything officially. Cheers!

The H100i cooler is awesome. keeps my 11TH GEN I7 cool. good part also is you get a fan hub to connect 6 RGB fans. Great for my corsair 220T case.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the 11th gen Lenovo ThinkPad x1 carbon and have had nothing but happiness and success. This is by far the best purchase I have made in years, and I will not ever look back

I'm running 2 of these on an I9-11th gen, Intel 750 system - happy to see that 4K DP chaining works. Purchased for 'office worker' use (no gaming). One monitor was damaged in transit but B&H provided advanced exchange service and saved me a week of wait time - big thumbs up for that service!

Microsoft surface pen is a great choice

Pairs with the Microsoft Surface Go I got as a gift for my spouse. She's quite happy with it.

This is working great on my SAMSUNG FLIP 2 touch out to Microsoft Surface. Plug and play.

In my opinion, that's the best option for tablet PC available right now! * Silent - where is the cooler?! * Light and portable - even the complete kit (Surface, cover and the pen) is still incredibly easy to manage and carry in a small backpack or purse. * great quality material - it feels solid. Even the type cover seems solid (I am still getting used to the cover, but I am trying!). * relatively powerful - you get what you pay: it is fast to start Windows, run smooth medium-end software. High-end tools like Visual Studio and database development studios could perform better in a better spec notebook, but it's very easy to succumb to its power-portability rate. * comfortable keyboard - I am still trying to understand how such a small and thin keyboard is so comfortable... * finally a USB-C! - I have a Surface Pro 6 and this Pro 7 is a minor improvement. The battery and processor are slightly better compared to Pro 6, but the only item that I am really happy to upgrade is the new port! Microsoft please pay me to omit this! * The SSD is still slow since the early Surface Pros comparing with the competition... Why Microsoft?! * The battery only survives +5 hours if you decrease the processor power to microwave level. A medium to high workload finishes the battery in less than 2 hours. Tips: * I bought the pen, but I rarely use it. Despite that, the pen is very comfortable, runs smoothly in the glass and is very useful to control presentations. Of course, it's great for drawing. * I suggest the Surface Dock to optimizes your work. Just plug to add 4 USB ports, ethernet gigabit port, display port (even though it is a mini DP...) and audio output to your Surface. All that with embedded power supply, maintaining your power adapter on your backpack. * Buy a Microsoft Display Adapter! It is simply a MUST because wireless video transmission liberates you from wires!

Microsoft Surface Pro has all the features I need ... B&H Photo offered at a great price ! Others May Come Close but nobody beats B&H Photo or standing behind their products !
