SAVE $500: As of Nov. 7, the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is on sale for just $899 at Amazon. Not only is that a savings of 36% or $500, but it's the best price we've ever seen on this model.


We're officially in peak season for buying a new laptop and this Microsoft Surface deal is living proof.

As of Nov. 7, the 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 with the Snapdragon X Elite chip, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage is on sale at Amazon for only $899 instead of its usual $1,399. That's $500 in savings, which brings it down to a new record low. Mashable's resident laptop expert Haley Henschel calls it a "crazy good deal" that's worthy of the Black Friday doorbuster label. Even the Microsoft Store and Best Buy (famous for excellent laptop deals) haven't matched this price drop.

The Surface Laptop 7 earned the title of Mashable's favorite Windows laptop for most people, thanks to its premium performance, ultra-long battery life, and stylish and sturdy aluminum design. "Apple must be sweating through its armpits with the launch of the Surface Laptop 7 because — holy cow — this is one hell of a laptop," wrote former Mashable Tech Editor Kim Gedeon.

The Snapdragon X Elite chip is faster than 83 percent of the laptops in our testing database in Best Performance mode and is right on par with Apple's M4 MacBook Air in a Geekbench 6 CPU benchmark. It also outlasts most other laptops with a 23-hour battery life. Gedeon added, "From 'Paint' to 'Photos,' the jam-packed AI capabilities in the Surface Laptop 7 make Windows fun again.

It's not perfect, as certain specialty apps aren't compatible with the Surface Laptop 7. Just double-check before you commit that it works with your favorite apps and you'll be good to go. The premium price tag is usually hard to stomach, but at $500 off, we recommend adding it to your cart ASAP.
