The tablet also makes the Surface Book 3 much more useful with inking and the Surface Pen than the Surface Laptop 3. The Surface Laptop 3 starts at nearly half the price of the Surface Book 3 right now. If you want something more portable, more mobile, and you don't need the keyboard, you can leave it at home. Not only is this perfect for consuming media, but you also have a tablet as well as a laptop. The first big difference is that the Surface Book 3 has a detachable display and one that can fold around when it's attached to the keyboard base like a convertible. The differences are what should ultimately make the decision on which you should buy since it's here where the two take a different path and target a different kind of buyer.

So you can either use a regular USB-C dock or the first-party Surface Dock, along with any number of USB-C accessories. The port selection is also pretty equal, though you get a little extra on the Surface Book 3, but both now have USB-C in addition to the traditional Surface Connect port. Storage and RAM options are comparable across both, and where Intel CPUs are used, both are now on 10th Gen chips. For one, both are available in two sizes, 13-inch and 15-inch, and both pack the high-quality design and all-metal build that we've come to know from Surface products.īoth, too, have high-resolution displays with both touch support and digital inking support, and both also support the optional Surface Dial add-on. In several areas, these two laptops are quite similar.
