Review: Microsoft Surface Laptop 3: AMD Ryzen 7 vs. Intel Core i7

Benchmarks: Display Brightness

Remember when AMD laptops tended to be gimped in some way or other? That's certainly not the case here, both variants of the Surface Laptop 3 feature the same storage, battery and display panel. Brightness is very good, viewing angles are excellent, and while contrast isn't quite as impressive as Microsoft's own Surface Book, this is a highly enjoyable panel that ticks most of the right boxes.
