A 120Hz display looks pretty, but in tough times with rising prices, it's an easy feature to leave off of your must-have list.Ībout this review : Microsoft sent us a 15-inch Surface Laptop 5 with a Core i7-1255U, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD, for review. When I'm pricing out a laptop I'm reviewing that comes out to over $2,000, it's worth wondering if it's worth it. It's just that some compromises have been made to hit a price point, and as someone that reviews almost every mainstream laptop, I have to ask how much value those lacking features add.

Aside from that, the webcam is still HD, although it's been separated from the IR camera for better quality. For example, after the Surface Pro 8 got a 120Hz display last year, that was something we expected to see on the next Surface Laptop. The Surface Laptop 5 also doesn't have some of the features we expected it to have.
