The Alcantara fabric that helped the Surface Laptop series differentiate itself is missing on the 15-inch model, which is only available with an all-metal chassis in your choice of matte black or platinum (silver). It isn't an especially exciting look, but there is a certain refinement to its simplicity and the build quality, as always, is top-notch. It has the same refined elegance with an anodized aluminum lid flaunting a mirrored Windows logo in the center.

The embodiment of minimalism, the Surface Laptop 4's design remains unchanged. Only the Intel version is available with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD but that will run you (shield your eyes!) $2,399. The cheapest Core i7 model has 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD and costs $1,799. The Intel models are slightly more expensive. The cheapest model costs $1,299 and drops the storage to a 256GB SSD (sadly, it is not available in matte black). For $1,499, you can get the same Ryzen 7 CPU and 512GB of storage but with only 8GB of RAM. Our AMD Ryzen 7 review unit in Matte Black costs $1,699 and comes with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.
