Surface Laptop 2 review
On October 2rd, Microsoft introduced the Surface Headphones, the Surface Sudio XNUMX and the new Surface Pro 6 also introduced the Surface Laptop 2. I was able to test this for two weeks. It was striking that despite the fact that "only" an Intel Core i5 was installed here, I still didn't have one Prohad problems with performance. Even in school where I'm with Proprograms like Gimp, NetBeans and VS Code, I had no problems with the performance. I also really liked the display. However, it was noticeable that Windows 10 was not optimized for the touchscreen in many places. All further information can be found in my test report.

Huawei MateBook X Pro review
In addition to the Surface Laptop 2, Editor-in-Chief David Wurm has had the MateBook X for a few months now Pro from Huawei in daily use. The first thing he says in his review is that he really liked the 13,9″ touchscreen, especially when it came to the colors. He was not so pleased that the display reflects heavily. On the other hand, he could again say good things about the speakers, the keyboard and the battery life.
