Now, to the star of the show: the keyboard. If you’re a quality sound aficionado, we’d recommend using headphones for listening to music from this laptop, but it’s just fine for calls and the odd video. The Dolby Atmos soundbars are actually below the keyboard, which feels like a great feat considering how thin the laptop is. The sound is not best-in-class by any means, but it does the trick for recreational media consumption. Aside from that, we’d happily watch a whole series on this laptop (and we did). However, the 2256 x 1504 resolution means watching 16:9 video content is a bit restrictive, as you get black bars on each side of the screen. The 3:2 PixelSense display is high quality, making work all the more agreeable. We reviewed the 13.5-inch screen model, the smallest one, which felt surprisingly large considering we’d just downgraded from a 15-inch laptop. The screen doesn’t fold back when trying to write on it with a dedicated pen, unlike a lot of other lightweight laptops. It also comes supported by really solid hinges, which is handy as it can be used as a touchscreen with a Surface pen (which is sadly not included). The screen itself is thinner than any laptop we’d ever used, clocking in at just 0.6 inches. Despite its size, the Surface 4 doesn’t feel like it’s about to crumble in your fingers when you carry it - it has a relative sturdiness that’s quite reassuring. As such, it’s ideal for someone who commutes or wants to work on the go without packing too heavy. It is incredibly lightweight, coming in at just 2.8 lbs.
The Surface Laptop 4’s biggest sell is definitely its design.
Its price point is very reasonable considering its build and specs, too. If you’re frequently on the move, however, and looking for a reliable but lightweight machine, the Surface Laptop 4 is an excellent choice.

The keyboard in particular is delightful to use, and the display quality is very agreeable.
