Does surface laptop lacks ports ?

[1235345]

Does one usb type a and zero usb type c port are sufficient for an office / basic need laptop?

One USB A port is absolutely fine. No USB-C port is a huge issue in my opinion. Especially if Microsoft claims that the Surface Laptop will last for 4 years.

Certainly it lacks a USB-C port
For some reason I really fancy the ideea of only USB-C ports... If I ever use a dongle I would prefer to use it knowing that in the future I will not need it anymore. Don't know if that makes sens but with the Surface Laptop I am afraid it would mean a dongle for years to come...

I personally feel like the lack of a USB-C port is quite sad. Especially, when they have a lowly display port on the device. I would still love to have one though. Seems to be a good laptop for all my student needs.

Depends on what you are using the device for.

My point exactly. If you are a guy on the constant move, like a student, the ports are great.

Still can't understand why they didn't sacrifice surface's proprietary charging port instead of the new and versatile type-c port.

Ports are good for the population it's targeting, though I have to say as I already did several times that Thunderbolt 3 port wouldn't hurt anyone as it allows usage of external GPUs.

I dont have a single item that requites usb-c so...... would work for me.
