What is the form factor of that SSD? The shortest one?
m.2 (2230). Not widely available yet.
They still make 128GB SSDs at the end of 2019?!
Yup. They're perfect for (some) office use cases. I'm glad they have this cheaper option. No point paying $240 extra for extra storage that will never be used. It can be upgraded later on anyway.
i think the price difference is the issue
No point paying $240 extra
I would hope not, considering you can get a full 1TB SSD for about $110.
Ask Apple.
The 15 inches Surface laptop 3 is $1599, if you want bigger screen.
13.5 vs 15 sounds pretty similar but an extra inch and a half makes a big difference in the lap area.
That one does have the AMD cpu in it. Performance is a bit worse, battery life a bit better.

Yeah baby

This or the Dell XPS 13 i7 256GB that was posted yesterday?
Depends, if you like Coil Whine get an XPS 13 :P
That's 8th gen, 2g away. Though I've never seen a 9g laptop ever. Why do XPS cost so much? Is it the sd card slot?
The XPS 13 7390 2 in 1 is the pick IMO. It has 10th gen, priced well on the Dell Outlet!
Just be prepared to get coil whine as exhibited by 3x brand new units I went through before giving up on it in favour of a Surface Laptop.
Think of all the reviewers they put it number 1 in any list.
Perfect for the kid at high school next year. Wife just now picked one up as a Xmas surprise for our son.
Bit expensive for a high school laptop
What can I say? We are an IT household, at least its lighter than the 2013 15" MacBook Pro he is lugging around now… (my old hardware)
It was important to have a zero maintenance Windows solution. The Microsoft laptops use a signature edition of Windows which means they are completely clear of bloat. This was a key factor in putting down the money for one of these as my time is better spent on my family than software support.
Can you install Chrome on them?
The Chrome browser sure can! Will be one of my first things to install as the default browser!
FYI my post in another deal about price/discount match by Microsoft and bonus case still included.
Updated this deal to reflect the new information.
…. annnd the discount extended warranty is gone. Updated listing to reflect this.
What is going on… the discount extended warranty is back again. blink blink. Oh well thats a good thing. Updated again
Surface Laptop has a user replaceable SSD now, so that 128GB is not as limiting as it was.
