The Surface Laptop for Business 5G is Microsoft's 13.8-inch business laptop with built-in cellular connectivity. It suits mobile staff, executives and field teams who can't rely on hotel, airport or café Wi-Fi. This configuration ships in Platinum with a Slate antenna-optimized composite palm rest. It runs an Intel Core Ultra 5 processor (Series 2) with Intel Arc Graphics, 16GB LPDDR5x RAM and a removable 256GB Gen 4 SSD. The keyboard uses a US English layout, and the system comes with Windows 11 Pro.

The integrated modem supports 5G NR in both SA and NSA modes (Release 16), with downloads of up to 2.9 Gbps and 4x4 MIMO. It falls back to Gigabit LTE-Advanced Pro (Cat 19 downlink up to 1.6 Gbps, Cat 18 uplink). Band coverage includes n71, n41, n77 and n78. You can use a NanoSIM or eSIM, and the laptop switches between Wi-Fi 7 and 5G as conditions change. GNSS location support covers GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS and NavIC.

As a Copilot+ PC, it includes an Intel AI Boost NPU rated at 40 TOPS for on-device AI features such as Windows Studio Effects. Security is built in at the hardware level: TPM 2.0 with BitLocker support, Microsoft Pluton and Windows Hello face sign-in. The removable SSD makes it quick to securely erase or retain data.

The 13.8-inch display runs at 2304 x 1536 (201 PPI), with up to 120Hz dynamic refresh, 600 nits and Gorilla Glass 5. It has an anti-reflective coating certified to ISO 9241-307. For connections you get two USB4/Thunderbolt 4 ports that can drive up to two 4K monitors, plus USB-A 3.1, a 3.5 mm jack and Surface Connect. The laptop weighs 3.06 lbs (1.39 kg) and is 0.70 inch thick. Microsoft includes a 1-year limited hardware warranty.

Ideal for

  • Executives and sales teams working securely while travelling, without relying on public Wi-Fi
  • Field operations staff who need always-on connectivity at job sites and in vehicles
  • Regulated organisations that need Secured-core hardware, Pluton and removable storage for data control
  • Hybrid employees who dock to dual 4K monitors in the office and run on 5G away from it
  • IT fleets deploying eSIM-provisioned laptops as a remote-work continuity tool
