Check out our unboxing videos for the Surface Laptop Studio and Surface Pro 8

We've got the new Surface Pro 8 and Surface Laptop Studio in-house! Our Executive Editor Daniel Rubino merely published his total review for both, then make sure you give those a read if you haven't already. In addition to our written reviews, we also have unboxing and hands-on videos for you to enjoy.

First upward, we have the Surface Laptop Studio, which I consider to be the star of all the new Surfaces shipping this autumn. It'due south a new form factor for Surface, dropping the detachable design of the Surface Book 3 in favor of a new pull-forward design that cannot be discrete.

But information technology's not the form factor that I think makes this laptop shine; information technology'due south the keybord, trackpad, and overall pattern. This is by far the best feeling Surface I've e'er held, and the keyboard is astonishing. It'southward tactile and satisfying to use. The "Precision Haptic" touchpad is besides corking, with iv levels of intensity to choose from.

We've also unboxed the Surface Pro 8, which finally aligns itself with the Surface Pro X in terms of design. If you're a classic Surface Pro user, the Surface Pro 8 is going to exist a big upgrade to you. For the Surface Pro line, I retrieve the Surface Pro 8 is basically perfect. The 13-inch 120Hz display is great, and the hardware feels great too.

We have the Pro 8 in Graphite, a new colorway for the Surface Pro line. It's a slightly lighter black than that found on the Surface Pro 7 and Surface Pro 10, just information technology'due south also less fingerprinty. Microsoft has inverse upwardly how it applies the paint so that it doesn't hold on to smudges equally easily, a godsend for anyone who gets annoyed by that kind of affair.

Anyway, like mentioned above, we recommend you lot check out our written reviews for a complete detailed analysis of these new devices. Our unboxing videos merely scratch the surface (heh) of what'south new.
