To prove this, Microsoft presented several benchmark tests for the new Surface series, with all results shown on stage demonstrating that the new Surface Laptop outperformed its competitor, the MacBook Air M3. Microsoft's Cinebench 2024 benchmark showed the Surface Laptop scoring 980 points, while the MacBook Air M3 scored 650 points. On Geekbench 6, the Surface Laptop scored 14,000 points, and the MacBook Air M3 scored 12,000 points.
Microsoft is confident in the power of its new Surface Laptop.
It's important to emphasize that these results come from multi-core tests, and it's unclear what the results from single-core tests would be like. Microsoft's omission of this data raises many questions, such as: Is it possible that the Surface Laptop won't be able to outperform Apple in this scenario? The answer may only be revealed when Microsoft officially releases the new product to the market.
Returning to Microsoft's demonstrations, the company also mentioned that "real-world performance" on their new laptops continues to be top-notch. To prove this, the company ran the HandBrake ToS program to simulate the encoding of a 4K video file. The results showed that the Surface Laptop with Snapdragon X Elite took 5 minutes and 8 seconds to complete the task, while the MacBook Air M3 took 6 minutes and 26 seconds.
It's also worth noting that the Surface Laptop 5 with the 12th-generation Intel Alder Lake chip took 10 minutes and 30 seconds to pass the same test. In other words, the new model has halved the video encoding time compared to its predecessor.
Since it's a laptop, a key concern for users of the new Surface Laptop is battery life. In this case, Microsoft's test results show that their product achieved quite impressive figures. When browsing the web, the Surface Laptop's battery completely drained after 16 hours and 59 minutes. The MacBook Air M3, on the other hand, lasted 15 hours and 25 minutes. When playing multimedia, the Surface Laptop achieved over 20 hours, while the MacBook Air M3 lasted 17 hours and 45 minutes.
Finally, it's important to mention artificial intelligence (AI) tasks, which are receiving increasing attention in today's technology world . For evaluation, Microsoft used the Procyon AI Computer Vision benchmark platform, recording scores of 1,745 and 889 for the Surface Laptop and MacBook Air M3, respectively.
It's important to emphasize that these results were provided by Microsoft to journalists, meaning they are purely for promotional purposes for the company's new product. More objective results will be available once the new Surface Laptop reaches independent reviewers, who will begin selling it on June 18th.
