It's been a quiet week of news, but we've been feverishly testing Microsoft 's new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop Copilot+ AI PCs. In this episode, Devindra and Sam will answer your questions about Microsoft ’s new hardware, and we'll deliver some of our first impressions. It turns out Microsoft may have finally gotten Windows on Arm support right! And some of the Copilot+ AI features are actually useful, surprisingly enough.

Question for you, Sam, what was your first impression upon tearing open the Surface Laptop?Right away I think it's good they didn't mess with the design. The design was never the issue for the Surfaces, they're, very beautifully crafted.
Everything is fast. Everything is zippy. It boots up quickly. It certainly wakes up from sleep almost instantly. Which is nice. Battery life looks really good. And I think mostly coming I feel so burned, Sam, having reviewed the Surface Pro 9 with 5G with that weird, like the 8CX chip. Or even theThe Surface Pro X, you should go back, check out Sherilyn's review of that thing. But that was like Microsoft's big design push. Hey, we have thinner bezels.
It installs normally, even though it's definitely not an ARM native game. And then when you try to actually play, you can't. And it's not because League itself doesn't run. It's because Riot's anti cheat system, Vanguard, needs kernel level support. So they asked you, hey, go restart your system so it can install the Riot anti cheat.
So there is still some of that, but I think at least from my typical workflow I was launching like most of the apps I use really it's only Evernote is the one that's emulated from X 86, everything else, like Spotify, Slack, and all those. Yep.All of your major stuff just seems to play pretty nicely, and even when it's not native, it still seems to run pretty fast.It feels pretty good. And I did try out some of the AI features as well.
And so it's all there's some weird just like incongruities where you have the same thing. It's got the same name, but they work differently depending on which app you're using it in. And that's a little weird.That's a clear, like a sign that this is all coming in hot. And then Microsoft was really working on this stuff very recently.is a big, like yellow preview tag on the button. Sure. So yes, it's very clear that this is still like a, work in progress.
