Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra is its most powerful yet, starting at $2,599

Microsoft has introduced the Surface Laptop Ultra, a high-end notebook serving as a flagship device for NVIDIA's new RTX Spark platform. Equipped with up to 128GB of unified memory and advanced CPU and GPU core configurations, the device is designed to run local AI models and deliver strong gaming performance. Despite its power, the laptop comes with a hefty starting price of $2,599 and faces stiff competition in the high-end market. While it offers a sleek 15-inch screen and unified memory architecture similar to Apple Silicon and Qualcomm chips, reviewers note it remains pricey for everyday consumers.
