2018 Best Laptops & Notebook - Microsoft Surface Pro : Final Suggestions
Microsoft has come a long way their Surface Pro line. They recently dropped the numbered naming scheme so instead of the Surface Pro 5, it’s just Surface Pro. They offer a few great configurations that would work well for a music production laptop. I recommend the Surface Pro with an Intel i7, 16GB RAM, and a 512GB SSD. If you want to stay under $1,000, the Intel Core i5 with 4GB RAM is a lower-budget option, but you’ll use that smaller amount of memory up quick. It comes with a MicroSD slot too. You can get one direct from Microsoft here.
The screen size on these is 12.3″ which can a little small, but most people get an external monitor or 2 anyway. Just know that these don’t come with a keyboard – and you’ll likely need to get the Microsoft Surface Dock to give you more ports
