The Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 13 Core i5-1035G7 (Surface Laptop 3 Series) 2TB / 64GB is Microsoft's 2020 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 3,899 in the UAE and ₹99,990 in India, it sits firmly in the upper mid-range tier.
The Surface Laptop 3 with i5-1035G7 and Iris Plus G7 delivers quiet, efficient performance for office tasks and light creative work, thanks to its 8GB LPDDR4x dual-channel RAM and low-power Ice Lake architecture. Battery lasts up to 11.5 hours under moderate use, aided by the 45Wh pack and fanless idle operation. The 2TB SK hynix NVMe SSD offers fast boot and file access, while the 13.5-inch PixelSense display remains sharp. Weakness: thermal throttling kicks in after 15 minutes of sustained CPU load, limiting multitasking or video rendering. Ports are minimal—only two USB-A and one Surface Connect, no HDMI. In UAE at AED 3899, it’s good value because the build, screen, and battery justify the premium over similarly priced Windows laptops. In India at ₹99990, it’s overpriced—local competitors offer faster CPUs, more RAM, and better ports for under ₹85000. Buy only if you prioritize sleek design and Windows integration over raw performance.
