Deal | Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio notebooks on clearance up to $594 off MSRP at BestBuy this Christmas season

BestBuy is clearing out stock of the 2021 Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio after the recent launch of the Surface Laptop Studio 2. The convertible uses a swivel midway behind the pull-forward screen to enable switching between laptop and tablet modes. The touchscreen is pen compatible (with a pen like this at BestBuy) to allow for multi-touch and written input.

The biggest limitation Notebookcheck has found after reviewing the 2021 Surface Laptop Studio is the older 4-core CPU used. Current laptops commonly use 8 to 14 core CPUs, so performance of the SLS1 lags behind 2023 competitors including the SLS2. The 14.4” screen has a screen resolution of 2400 x 1600 pixels and a refresh rate up to 120 Hz. Two Thunderbolt 4 ports allow for peripheral connection and eGPU expansion by using a fast GPU inside an external enclosure.

• The base SLS1 with i5-11300H CPU, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, and Intel Iris Xe GPU is currently $500 off $1599.99 MSRP.
• The higher end SLS1 with i7-11370H CPU, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti GPU is currently $594 off $2,699.99 MSRP.
• Other model configurations are similarly discounted.
