Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #798 hosted by Don Baine.
After almost 10 years of faithful service, my Microsoft Surface Pro has finally reached its limit. The battery now lasts about 15 minutes – if I’m lucky! It was an incredible computer, but if a battery can barely get you through a cup of coffee, it’s probably time to look for a replacement.
So here is the question…
What should I buy next?
Rather than relying on online reviews or marketing hype, I decided to ask three of today’s most popular AI assistants for advice:
✅ Microsoft Copilot
✅ Perplexity AI
✅ ChatGPT
I gave each AI the same challenge.
I explained that I am a professional content creator who records weekly shows, edits in Adobe Premiere Pro, works extensively with AI tools, records with Riverside, travels frequently, and needs a computer powerful enough to last for years.
The answers were fascinating.
Some recommendations were exactly what I expected…
Others completely surprised me.
Even more interestingly, each AI used a different approach to arrive at its recommendation. Which gave the best advice? Which one missed the mark? And are they all on the same computer?
The last conclusion surprised even me.
Join me as we compare the recommendations, discuss what really matters when buying a high-performance laptop in 2026, and reveal which computer earned the top spot.
If you’re thinking about replacing your current PC, this episode can save you time, money, and a lot of frustration.
