Test: Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 (Core i5, 256 GB) Laptop (Sammanfattning)

Utmärkt skärm, ganska svag anslutbarhet. Nya Surface Laptop 2 från Microsoft är en aningen omarbetad version av den äldre modellen som nu kommer med en modern processor. Totalt sett resulterar detta i en välbalanserad helhet. Vi är särskilt nöjda med 3:2-skärmen. Tyvärr har Microsoft inte förbättrat anslutbarheten.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
46.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 26 ms rise
↘ 20.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 99 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
69.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 34.8 ms rise
↘ 34.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 98 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17900 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Recenseras: Microsoft Surface Laptop 2. Recensionsex från Cyberport

Läs den fullständiga versionen av den här recensionen på engelska här.

Som vi nämnde i början så har Microsoft i huvudsak bara uppdaterat den äldre Surface-modellen. Surface Laptop 2 kommer med moderna processorer med fyra kärnor, ett tystare kylsystem, en aning förbättrade högtalare och nya färgvarianter. Skärmen får fortfarande representera enhetens höjdpunkt och imponerar med sin goda färgprecision i kombination med bra ljusstyrka och hög kontrast. Även om 4K-skärmar ger högre upplösning så är bilden på Surface Laptop 2 väldigt naturtrogen och personligen gillade vi den verkligen. 3:2-skärmen har en fördel vid användning av produktivitetsapplikationer. Om man i huvudsak är intresserad av att titta på video kan det vara bättre med en 16:9-skärm. Inmatningsenheterna övertygar också och tangentbordet har jämförelsevis lång restid med tanke på hur tunn enheten är. Som ett resultat är den riktigt bekväm att skriva på.

Vi upptäckte två huvudpunkter att kritisera på den här enheten. Den första är själva höljet, som, även om det är stabilt och av hög kvalitet, i princip är omöjligt att öppna. Detta innebär att användaren inte ens kan göra rent fläkten. Det andra problemet är att den saknar en Thunderbolt 3-port. Istället har enheten Surface Connect-anslutningen som Microsoft erbjuder ett antal enheter till. Det är förstås logiskt att Microsoft vill behålla den anslutningen; men de kunde ha inkluderat Thunderbolt 3 istället för en mini-DisplayPort. Det hade framtidssäkrat enheten och gjort det möjligt för användare som föredrar att ha en enda enhet för både stationär och mobil användning att ansluta en eGPU. Ytterligare en nackdel är bristen på SD-kortläsare - i synnerhet eftersom skärmen hade passat väldigt bra till bildbehandling.

Om du letar efter en högkvalitativ laptop med en bra skärm, tyst drift och bra inmatningsenheter bör Surface Laptop 2 från Microsoft passa bra. Även om vi är besvikna över och inte kan förstå faktum att det inte finns en Thunderbolt 3-port så påverkar detta för tillfället inte vardagligt arbete.

Oavsett så erbjuder Surface Laptop 2 en riktigt bra helhet, särskilt med tanke på målgruppen som i huvudsak består av genomsnittliga användare och personer som behöver en bra skärm med tryckkänslighet. Förhållandet mellan pris och prestanda är bra, även om det är synd att Microsoft tar ganska mycket extra betalt för mer RAM och SSD-lagring och dessutom komplicerar konfigurationsbegränsningar (beroende på färg, RAM, etc.) saker i onödan. Surface Laptop 2 slår MacBook Air i vår jämförelse och är troligen det bättre (och billigare) alternativet för de flesta användare, utan att ta operativsystemet i beaktande. Den som letar efter en ännu mer kompakt enhet bör ta en titt på XPS 13, som dessutom erbjuder fler alternativ för hårdvara och service.
