DesignĪpart from bidding farewell to AMD, the overall design hasn’t been changed that much, although there are some new, bolder color options. When it comes to the Surface Laptop 4, the cheapest model costs a whole $200 less than the next-gen offering, starting at $799 for the basic set of specs and maxing out at $2,099 for the top set of specs in the 15-inch model.

That price can go up to as high as $2,499 if you choose to buy the 15-inch version with a Core i7 processor and 1TB of storage. The absolute cheapest configuration of the Surface 5, with a Core i5 CPU, 8GB RAM, and 256GB of SSD storage, will cost $999. In terms of pricing, Microsoft did ramp things up a bit compared to the previous generation. Preorders for the Surface Laptop 5 opened October 12 and it will be available for sale starting October 25. Microsoft offers a lot of flexibility when you choose your exact model of the Surface Laptop, and that hasn’t changed in this new generation.
