Microsoft Surface Studio 2 14″ (Z1T-00001) summary
Microsoft Surface Studio 2 is a Windows gaming laptop released in 2024. It doesn't come with the top Intel processor and also less RAM than the competition for its price.

Your 1000gb SSD storage is decent leaves room for improvement. It is quite bulky at 4.37 lbs (1.98 kg).
