The Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 13 Core i5-1035G7 (Surface Laptop 3 Series) 1TB / 32GB is Microsoft's 2019 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 14.5 x 308 x 223 ( = 0.57 x 12.13 x 8.78 in) display, the Intel Core i5-1035G7 4c/8t 4 x 1.2 - 3.7 GHz, Ice Lake-U chipset. At AED 1,699 in the UAE and ₹42,990 in India, it sits firmly in the mid-range tier.
The Surface Laptop 3 with Core i5-1035G7 and Intel Iris Plus G7 delivers quiet, efficient performance for office tasks and light creative work, thanks to its 8GB LPDDR4x RAM and 1TB SSD. Battery life reaches 10–11 hours under moderate use, aided by the fanless idle design and 45Wh pack. Its 13.5-inch PixelSense display and premium keyboard suit writers, students, and remote workers needing portability and all-day endurance. Weakness: the 8GB RAM is insufficient for multitasking with modern browsers and apps, and thermal throttling occurs after 20 minutes of sustained CPU load. Ports are limited—only two USB-A and one Surface Connect, no HDMI. In UAE at AED 1699, it’s good value because the build quality and screen justify the price over similarly priced Windows laptops. In India at ₹42990, it’s overpriced—competitors offer 16GB RAM and faster SSDs for the same cost, making this a poor choice for Indian buyers seeking longevity.
