The Manchester United Surface Laptop is the greatest laptop of all time

I’ve been a Manchester United fan for as long as I can remember (going on 37 years now), coming from a family of Manchester United fans. Watching games with my grandad as a young child remains some of my fondest memories.

Sure it’s been tough in recent years, but the passion never dies. Imagine my absolute delight when my club crosses over with my job. It’s been happening for a couple of years already, since Snapdragon took over shirt sponsorship, and it’s gone up another notch this season.

Alongside Microsoft Surface replacing Copilot+ PC (which it seems is now dead) as the rear shirt sponsor, Qualcomm and Microsoft have collaborated on the greatest laptop ever made: The Manchester United limited edition Surface Laptop.

The only downside is that it’s not just going on general sale, because I would probably be first in line to buy one. Just because it’s red and it has the Manchester United badge on it.

But here it is in all its glory, thanks to our man Zac Bowden, who’s on the ground in Hawaii (this job is really tough at times) at the 2026 edition of the Snapdragon Summit.

I don’t see an Arsenal laptop out there, do I? Manchester City? Liverpool? Chelsea Spurs wouldn’t even get a calculator these days.

If I had to criticize it at all, beyond the fact it’s not going on general sale, it’d be that I don’t think it goes far enough into the Manchester United branding. The badge being there is great, but I think they could have done more.

How about ghosting an image of Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams, onto the lid like the 1994-1996 home shirt? 30 years on that would have been incredible.

These are extremely limited, and Manchester United and Snapdragon are currently running a giveaway for fans to get their hands on one. You can find out how to enter here and get yourself in the pot to win something that is, frankly, priceless.
