    I heard that part of the deals behind MS ploughing so much marketing, advertising and deals (pricing and freebies) was that the bootloader is locked to Windows. Is this true? Has anyone managed to partition the drive and put Linux on? If true, we must wait for Qualcomm to strike a deal with MS to allow them to use other OSes. Maybe MS has insisted on an exclusive period. We know Qualcomm and MS have struck these types of deals before, where they prevent other chipmakers from putting Windows on ARM. If true, and this was Apple, then there would be uproar. I suspect creators will not even confirm this and will make excuses if correct. We know they have not mentioned the security issues of MS Pluton, which Qualcomm uses. If this exploit was an Apple problem, there would be many flexes by creators.

    The addition of the DaVinci info was exactly what I need! Thank you so much for including this. Lack of GPU rendering is a complete non-starter. I use magic mask a lot, and rendering out with effects on magic mask really taxes the GPU. I can't imagine trying to run without one.

      @ahaimes6320 Годину тому

      I posted on this. From what I have heard, MS has a bootloader on this device as part of a deal due to investment in this being a success. I suspect MS is concerned that they will fail again and do not want people to buy these and put Linux on them. But have yet to confirm as no creator on YT has investigated this. I assume there is no NDA, so I am surprised. I await a review to confirm or deny.

    Before jumping into the X-Elite, I would research as multiple issues are now popping up. My deal-breakers, for now, include VPN apps not working, old accessory hardware (e.g. printers) having no ARM drivers and Google Drive not working (not as good using the website), no native app and emulation not being possible. These bumps in the road happened with Apple Silicon, but of course, they are now four years into the game, so they have a distinct advantage. So, if you want ARM, buy a Mac or wait for a few months. If I were a Windows fan, I would wait for the upcoming Intel and AMD ultrabook chips that look equal to or better than the X-Elite in every regard and hopefully have more exciting designs.

    This was better review than Vivo book s15 and i was disappointed with thermals and battery life. I do think this 15 inches surface has better scores than competitors. Lack of pen compatibility is a deal breaker though when earlier releases did just fine. Would love to hear quality of speakers. At the price point i would take up strix point and nvidia RTX GPU for super fast renders. Coming from GTX 980 to RTX should be a game changer And GTX struggled with bunch of resolve and custom plugin effects. Atleast this time surface laptop aren't reaching 100C on turbo boost. Although i would have like to see the ultimate AMD CPU based surface. It's not that arm chip lacks power rather I'm concerned with reliability of doing daily video render, OBS captures, gaming, coding and basic photo edit. One more thing i want to add is my Pixel 7 renders my video with better effects and high bit rate faster than my PC only for short time period and performance tanks when you reach 45C

    I actually got this same model. 64GB of RAM, 15inch. Been loving it so far. Pricey, yeah, but I'm hoping to use this laptop to get some extra video editing done outside my workstation at home (and also, do more color grading and motion gfx, which I read up that I'd need at least 32GBs, 64GBs min to handle serious color work). So far so good in terms of editing performance, while the fans go anywhere between tame to decently loudish (but not insane). This is awesome. My comic script writing software works, and I mostly just use Microsoft apps from there, so pretty good on the app front on my end. The only thing I wish, is that Blackmagic resolve some bugs and gets Resolve 19 out of beta soon. I didn't know about the depth map issue, but I have an issue where switching over to Fusion to work on a clip, the clip just isn't visible in Fusion (I'd have to render out the timeline, place the play head at frame 0, go to Fusion, hit play on the keyboard to get the images to EVENTUALLY show up). As someone who prefers Resolve to be my primary editing software, I'd love for everything to work. At least the software mostly runs well, otherwise.

    ARM is seems pointless to me on Windows, AMD/Intel crush them for one good reason they run x86 natively, and ARM isn't better than x86, its instructions got bloated overtime. Chromebook is where they make lots of sense, everything works, plus this platform is great for casual people who only need basic web stuff and some basic apps here and there, plus real work using Google suite.

    Juan, I would have thought you would have gone for the new Surface Pro over the Surface Laptop... I really enjoyed your first day of reviewing it. You covered a lot for one day vs nearly all the ASUS Vivobook S15 reviews, where they got the test units a week early and just put out fluff pieces. Looking forward to what you have coming next! I will say that, while I totally understand why you went after an ARM laptop, I think your money would have been better spent waiting another month to get an AMD Strix Point laptop; it will have double the Tops performance, and it will be about 77% faster then the current AMD Hawk Point laptops that already trounce these Qualcomm laptops in performance. I think they will have equally impressive performance/watt as well. Anyway, v one last thing... , I hate one drive! Lol.

      I dont think there's an arm option for Windows, but I'm getting the linux version setup now.

      Well that sucks. I hope that those apps get ported to WoA soon!

      It's really weird. They keep saying stuff like "Lunar Lake is gonna crush this" but like, where has Intel been since the M1? The only reason Intel WILL be competitive in the FUTURE is because of the competition we're getting today.

    FYI they got rid of the pen digitizer in the displays of the Surface Laptop 7 so mow pen input is Surface Pro only.

      @@SomeGadgetGuy I went Surface Pro OLED. They supposed the tablet and keyboard separately through UPS and FedEx. The Surface itself got here today. The Flex Keyboard + Pen is apparently still states away and I still haven't received the trade in value from my device I sent back. Tomorrow is the last day of the two week payout window they said it might take. You'd think their logistics would be better by now. They had a month to figure it out. Guess the Recall drama bungled the rollout

      Those things have ALWAYS been crazy slow, but I will say their logistics team saved my butt getting this shipped out. Sorry to hear about your blade.

    Got one today it’s battery life and lack of fan noise and over heating is amazing. I do sales and my 13.8” surface was still at 80% after work 😊

      Feels good right! We've been LONG overdue an option like this in windows land.

      Happy and envious for you at the same time. I think I will pick one up too. I probably could have delivered most of my workload on a SP 9(5G) so I’m sure these new machines will be fine.
