You can upgrade to the AMD Ryzen 7 3780U if you need more processing power, though the increase in performance isn't significant.

Our Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 has an AMD Ryzen 5 3580U Microsoft Surface Edition CPU with Radeon Vega 9 integrated graphics, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. Sadly, the battery doesn't last a full 8-hour workday, and there are very few ports. Also, it isn't ideal for any graphically intensive tasks because there's no option for a dedicated GPU. Its AMD Ryzen CPU can handle light productivity tasks, like web browsing, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations, but it struggles in demanding workloads.

The keyboard is comfortable to type on and easy to adapt to, the touchpad is large and responsive, and the webcam's video quality is outstanding. It has a sharp and well-calibrated display with a 3:2 aspect ratio, which gives you more vertical screen real estate so that you don't have to scroll as much when viewing documents. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 15 (2019) is an exceptionally well-built laptop with a full aluminum chassis.
