I like Surface line-up devices. They are all nicely designed and performed very well in the real world scenario. But they are not cheap, even for the entry-level models. To lower the price tag to attract more people, Microsoft quietly added a couple less expensive models to the Surface line-up.
Surface Book 2
The new entry-level Surface Book 2, priced at $1,199, is equipped with
- 13.5-inch PixelSense display
- Intel Core i5 processor
- 8GB of RAM
- 128GB SSD drive
- New USB-C Port
That’s $300 cheaper than the previous low-end Surface Book 2 model, at $1,499, mainly because of the amount of storage that was cut from 256GB to 128GB.
Surface Laptop
The new entry-level Surface Laptop, priced at $799, is featured with
- 13.5-inch PixelSense display
- Intel Core m3 processor
- 4GB of RAM
- 128GB SSD drive
That’s $200 cheaper than the previous low-end Surface Laptop model, at $999, mainly because of the Intel Core i5 processor used in the previous model.
