REVIEW: Microsoft's newest laptop delivers a knockout punch to the MacBook — so long as you perform one simple step

There's nothing wrong with a good gimmick — sometimes, you have to do whatever it takes to stand out from the crowd.

Take the Microsoft Surface lineup, for example. Every Surface tablet, laptop, and PC created to date has had some kind of trick to it.

The Surface Pro is a tablet with a detachable keyboard. The screen on the Surface Book lifts straight off the laptop's base to become a tablet in its own right.

Those kinds of features have helped the Surface line succeed.

Other times, though, sheer quality is the only feature you need. Apple has often been slow to update its laptop lines, but its focus on building machines that "just work" has helped its MacBook products remain the industry's gold standard.

That's where the Microsoft Surface Laptop comes in.

The Surface Laptop, starting at $999, has no gimmicks, beyond a funky fabric-coated keyboard. It's "just" a laptop; although it's got a touchscreen, it doesn't turn into a tablet or fold backwards or anything like that. So it's a good thing that the Surface Laptop is good enough to stand on its own — even when put up against Apple's core MacBook laptop.

After using it for the better part of a month, here's the deal with the Surface Laptop — and the one thing you should look out for.

Meet Microsoft's Surface Laptop. It's a good-looking computer that has a 12.5-inch touchscreen and starts at $999.

Microsoft is pitching the Surface Laptop as the perfect laptop for college students, which puts it head-to-head with Apple's MacBook, pictured.

The Surface Laptop is kind of an oddity in the Surface line in that you can't separate its screen from its keyboard. By comparison, the Surface Pro — that's the smaller one on the left here — turns into a tablet when you detach its keyboard.

Melia Robinson/Business Insider
The Surface Laptop, however, is "just" a laptop — it closes into a clamshell and opens up so it can sit on your lap. Fortunately, it also happens to be a pretty great one.

Melia Robinson/Business Insider
It's thin and light, weighing around 2.75 pounds, depending how juiced-up a model you get. It sports a USB port, a mini-DisplayPort, and uses the same Surface Connect charger as every other Surface device out there. The charger sports a single USB port to power your gear, too.

Matt Weinberger/Business Insider
The Surface Laptop comes in a variety of funky colors. This thing is designed to catch your eye.

Microsoft
If you're a Mac user scared of Windows 10, don't be: Windows 10 is actually pretty great. I was a faithful Mac user for many years, but Windows 10's multitasking features, touchscreen support, and Cortana digital assistant won me over.

Google NHS deal rebuked again by DeepMind panel

The Streams app is saving nurses hours each day, says DeepMind
An independent panel set up to oversee the activities of Google's DeepMind has agreed that its initial deal with a UK hospital was "illegal".
The Information Commission (ICO) ruled on Monday that the Royal Free NHS Foundation Trust had not done enough to safeguard patient data.
The controversy is over an app DeepMind developed to identify patients at risk of kidney disease.
The NHS shared 1.6 million patient data records with the company.
Dr Julian Huppert, who chairs the DeepMind Health Independent Review Panel, said that the initial data-sharing contract signed with the Royal Free Hospital Trust had had "deficiencies" and that a revised version, written after the controversy hit the media, needed "a lot of changes".
The panel also acknowledged that this first contract had differed from the standard ones the NHS signed with third-parties despite the fact that DeepMind had said its deal was "no different" from the multitude of other data-sharing deals done within the NHS.
Although most of the ICO's criticism was of the Royal Free, which controlled patient data, the panel had the following advice for DeepMind.
"It would be well-advised to remind partners of their responsibilities," said Dr Huppert.
"People are concerned about the power of big technology firms, and we felt that we should hold DeepMind to a very high standard because of its link to Google," he said, as the panel released its first annual report.

It concluded that DeepMind itself had not broken any laws over the data agreements.
DeepMind is an artificial intelligence company with a health division and a division exploring how to use AI in other walks of life.
But it has previously said that no element of artificial intelligence was used in the development of the Streams app.
On this, Dr Huppert said: "DeepMind could use AI to help with healthcare, but I think that it found that the state of data in the NHS was not as good as it had hoped so it had to step back from this."
The panel did not look at DeepMind's business model, saying it was something to consider for the next report, but, when questioned by journalists, Dr Huppert said that the app was currently offered to the NHS for free.
"It is not sustainable to offer the app for free, and I suspect DeepMind intends to make money but whether that is in the UK or not we don't know," he said.

DeepMind has previously said that it wanted to be paid on the outcomes it delivers.
The panel also appointed a team of experts to look at the security of the patient data being held by DeepMind, and they concluded that there were 11 data vulnerabilities, most of them low risk.
These included a flaw in the data centre that meant anyone with access to the system could overwrite data and potentially introduce malware.
And the the experts suggested devices used by healthcare professionals to access patient data could be more locked down.
DeepMind said that it was addressing the vulnerabilities.
They also found that the data being kept by DeepMind was completely separate from Google.
In a blogpost, DeepMind acknowledged its mistakes.
"Ultimately, if we want to build technology to support a vital social institution like the NHS, then we have to make sure we serve society's priorities and not outrun them," said DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman.
"There's a fine line between finding exciting new ways to improve care, and moving ahead of patients' expectations. We know that we fell short at this when our work in health began, and we'll keep listening and learning about how to get better at this."

versary of the iconic smartphone, and that the new model will likely feature some form of wireless charging technology. But beyond that, opinions are divided as to what exactly users can expect from the tech giant.
Rumors are circulating about the possibility of a number of new features that could be included in the iPhone 8, including an OLED (organic light-emitting diode) display, 3-D sensors as well as the elimination of the familiar home button. But analysts are saying that while Apple has likely already committed to its hardware design, the company has been experimenting with a variety of feature options.

AirFuel or Qi?

According to some reports, the company at one point had as many as 10 prototypes for the iPhone 8, representing various combinations of feature sets and designs. Apple has a reputation for working on multiple new technologies for its devices, even though not all of them ultimately come to fruition.

One particular area of speculation involves which wireless charging technology the company has chosen for the iPhone. The most likely possibility would involve the Qi charging standard. Apple already uses Qi wireless charging technology in its Apple Watch, and the company just recently joined the Wireless Power Consortium, an industry group of more than 200 companies that supports the standard.

But the company could choose to adopt the competing AirFuel specification instead. While Apple does not have the same relationship to AirFuel that it has with Qi, AirFuel does offer some advantages that could be attractive to iPhone users. Devices that use AirFuel can be charged a bit farther away from their charging bases than those that use the Qi standard, which requires physical contact between the iPhone and the charging pad.

Bye-bye Home Button, Hello Facial Recognition?

To make the situation even more confusing for Apple watchers, the company reportedly has as many as five teams developing different versions of wireless technology.

Besides wireless charging, the other feature most likely to be included in this year's iPhone is an OLED, high-definition display, possibly going from edge to edge or featuring curved edges. Analysts have been expecting Apple to make the switch to OLED displays for some time, as many of the company's competitors in the smartphone market have already done so.

The other potential change with regard to the front display is an integrated fingerprint sensor and home button. That would mean saying goodbye to the familiar iPhone home button whose functions would be incorporated into the larger display.

Apart from these changes, observers say that the company is unlikely to make any major design modifications to the iPhone 8. However, another rumor suggests that Apple will incorporate 3-D sensor technology in the phone's front facing camera, a feature that could potentially allow users to unlock their phones using facial recognition.
