Microsoft Surface Studio 2 14″ (Z1J-00001) summary
Microsoft Surface Studio 2 is a Windows gaming laptop released in 2024. It doesn't have the best Intel CPU plus also less memory than the competition for its price. The laptop has the GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card which is lackluster for playing games. You can run older games on recommended settings, but using lower graphics settings you can play 60% of the games published this year. Only 2400 x 1600 resolution is weak for the 14-inch 120 Hz screen. The 1000gb SSD storage is okay leaves room for improvement. It is quite heavy at 4.37 lbs (1.98 kg).
