![]() One other point to note here is that you can charge the Surface Laptop studio through the proprietary Surface Connect port or the Thunderbolt 4 ports. These are cheap to buy, but it is frustrating not to have one when you start out. Other laptops like the Dell XPS 13 come with a USB-C to USB-A adapter included. That seems a bit stingy on Microsoft’s part. You do not, however, get any way to adapt the Thunderbolt 4 or Surface Connect to work with older devices in the box. ![]() ![]() Alternatively, you could use a Thunderbolt dock like the Belkin Thunderbolt 3 Dock Pro (opens in new tab). ![]() Microsoft offers the Surface Dock 2 (opens in new tab), which uses its Surface Connect port and adds charging, 1GB Ethernet and a variety of USB ports of various shapes and speeds. There are no older-style USB-A ports, no SD Card and no other connections, so you have to do everything through the Thunderbolt or Surface Connect port with an adapter. There are four connections to this laptop: two Thunderbolt 4 ports on the right side and the Surface Connect port and headphone socket on the left. More magnets hold the pen in place, and it is charged wirelessly when stored in place. This serves two functions: it provides a spot for the air intakes (so they don’t get blocked when it is sitting on a lap) and the notch under the touchpad provides a mounting spot for the Surface Pen 2, an optional ($130/£120/AU$190) pen that works with the touch screen. ![]() The base of the laptop has a slightly odd design: there is a notch between the edge of the case and the bottom of the base all the way around, like an inverted step pyramid. ![]()
