The front-facing camera that does such a great job for logging in isn't as impressive on video calls, a much more important part of our days in this COVID world. While I've been pretty impressed by the Surface Laptop 4 there are some things about it that just don't stand up to the level I expect. I touch type and, anecdotally, have found myself typing quicker and with less errors on Surface keyboards than any other I use regularly. Last but certainly not least in the pro-column is the tremendous keyboard, the best in the business, I believe. There's no question it'll get you through an entire working day without needing plugged in.
I used it over multiple days – writing a bit here and there, watching videos, Skype calls and just leaving it around open and never managed to drain the battery substantially. Regardless, it sounded much better – and at lower volumes – than other machines playing the same song in a direct comparison.īattery life is another huge plus point with the Surface Laptop 4. I'm either using my laptop plugged in to an external monitor with sound built in or wearing headphones so not sure how important that sound really is to prospective purchasers. My only doubt over the sound is how much I'll actually use it – your mileage may differ. I cranked it up and the keys were vibrating as I typed. I decided to take a trip back to my headbanging days and blast Ozzy Osbourne's 'Crazy Train' and the clarity was impressive, even at lower volumes.
And talking of sound, the under-keyboard Dolby Atmos 7 speakers add a real depth of sound as it bounces off the screen.
