Microsoft’s new 15-inch Surface Laptop 3 looks like a sleeper. With a 15-inch 3:2 screen and simple exterior, it seems most at home when it’s at work. Yet the 15-inch model has a secret, one not found in the 13-inch version of the Surface Laptop 3.
That secret is a custom AMD Ryzen processor paired with AMD Vega graphics. This sets the 15-inch model apart from its 13-inch sibling.
These components hint the Surface Laptop 3 could work as a gaming laptop. Panos Panay, Microsoft’s chief product officer, alluded to that during the products announcement in early October as he bemoaned how badly his daughter beats him in Fortnite. But is the Surface Laptop 3 really a sleeper gaming laptop?
