The new Microsoft Surface Laptop 13-inch (down to $839.99 from $999.99) is only a few months old, but it’s already getting a hefty price cut for Prime Day, and it’s a deal I can’t recommend more to Windows users who’re looking for a decent MacBook Air alternative.
When I reviewed the Surface Laptop 13-inch, I noted that the performance of the 8-core Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus fell well short of what a comparable MacBook Air 13-inch with M4 would get you. But after having used the device for several weeks since that review was published, it has grown to become my go-to device for most of my day-to-day work.

I already loved the design of the laptop (especially the Violet colorway), but I’m often on the move between home and the office, and I just as often need to squeeze work in while I’m doing so.
Sure, I’m not going to game on it, but for writing up articles for work or streaming a NYCFC game on Apple TV+ in my downtime without having to worry about digging around for a charger every day, this laptop is perfect, and it won’t be this cheap for long.
