A:AnswerYes, it has a really good keyboard and track pad. The keyboard area is cover with a nice fabric(I think it's called Alcantera) which feels good on the hands.
A:AnswerIt depends what programs you will run on the Surface Laptop. If you are using it for light web browsing, email and occasional streaming, the M3 should be fine. If you are using more processor intensive software to assist you in your studies, it makes the most sense to look at the minimum and recommended specifications of that software on the third-party software manufacture's website. Then, choose the processor that meets those needs.
