Microsoft Brings Surface Laptop to India, Starting at Rs 86,999
Aug. 7, 2018Microsoft has today launched the Windows 10 S-powered Surface Laptop in India and it is available starting today from Amazon, Flipkart, Croma, Reliance and authorized retail stores across the country for Rs. 86,999 onwards.
Microsoft has launched a total of five SKUs in India which come in different CPU, RAM, storage and GPU configurations, but disappointingly, all the variants are powered by 7th Gen Intel processors.
The device is powered by a 7th Gen Intel Core i5-7200U processor, while the higher-end version of the Surface Laptop comes equipped with a 7th Gen Intel Core i7-7660U CPU, with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. In the graphics department, there is a choice between an integrated Intel HD 620 and an Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 GPU, however, considering the Surface Laptop’s pricing in India, a discrete NVIDIA GPU would have been a much better option for buyers.

The Surface Laptop packs a single USB 3.0 port, a Mini DisplayPort, Surface Connect port and a 3.5mm headset jack.

However, you can always upgrade to the normal Windows 10 or Windows 10 Pro. Following is the pricing structure of the Surface Laptop in India:
