Why use Surface Laptop Studio 2 for creative work?

The creative process is something of an enigma. We all know it exists—the tinkering and massaging of a concept into tangible art or messaging—but nailing down exactly how it works is a fool’s errand. That’s because, for each and every creative, the process is a little different and requires unique tools.

What’s more, as a creative, you’re constantly working on different projects. That requires lots of multitasking, storage space, and versatile tools. Surface Laptop Studio 2 is the largest, most powerful device in the Surface laptop family, making it the perfect sidekick for any creative. With removeable SSD options of up to 2 terabytes (TB) and features for multitasking, it’s a great device for casual projects, commissions, and more. Plus, the 14.4” PixelSense™ Flow display and touchscreen capabilities make it easy to see the big picture when you work.

Surface Laptop Studio 2 features for every type of creative

Creatives have different needs depending on their craft. Here are some Surface Laptop Studio 2 features for different types of work and creative processes:

Designers and illustrators

A touchscreen is great if you need to draw or make designs with your device. Surface Laptop Studio 2’s keyboard folds back, leaving just the touchscreen drawing canvas. With help from Surface Slim Pen 2, you can create flawless designs directly on the screen. Surface Laptop Studio 2 also comes with a slot for holding and charging your Surface Slim Pen 2 after you’re done using it. The 120 Hz refresh rate and NVIDIA® GeForce RTXᵀᴹ graphics technology both make this device responsive to the Surface Slim Pen 2.

Writers

If you’re writing a novel or a short story, Surface Laptop Studio 2 boasts a comfortable keyboard and writing tools to support your experience. Every Surface device comes with preinstalled Microsoft 365 apps including Microsoft Word for writing and OneDrive for secure cloud storage.¹ The newest version of Word comes with Copilot, an AI-powered tool that can give you suggestions and make edits while you write.

Video creators

Filming a video requires lots of editing, planning, and a good quality camera. Surface Laptop Studio 2 comes with a high-quality 1080p resolution front-facing camera and Dual Studio Mics that are optimal for video production. Add fun graphics and make precise edits with Clipchamp, the new video editing tool for Microsoft.

Making and editing a video can use up a lot of battery life, but Surface Laptop Studio 2’s long-lasting battery comes to the rescue, with up to 17 hours of battery life.²

Photographers

Taking the picture is only the first step of developing a professional photo. Surface Laptop Studio 2’s 12th-generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor is perfect for editing photos. You can use the built-in Photos app to adjust the brightness and contrast or download your own photo editing app from the Microsoft App store.
