* The Spartan Laser's beam seems to trail off forever when fired into the sky, very much like the [[Sentinel beam]]. The beam of both weapons does end, however, usually at the invisible walls of the playing area. The laser beam on [[Sandtrap]] covers over 75% of the width of the area when fired at a 45-degree angle.

* Luke Smith's comment: "It's not overpowered, it's an elegant weapon from a more civilized age," is a reference to ''Star Wars''<nowiki>'</nowiki> [[StarWars:Lightsaber|lightsabers]], described as such by [[StarWars:Obi-Wan Kenobi|Obi-Wan Kenobi]].

* In ''[[The Package]]'', the Spartan Laser is shown to be able to deflect an energy sword and is, in that instance, [[Dual wielding|dual wielded]] with an [[M7 SMG]].

* In ''The Package'', after [[Frederic-104]] fires his Spartan Laser twice, his HUD shows its battery has 80% of its power left, meaning his Spartan Laser has only expended 10% of its power with each shot. However, in ''Halo 3'', ''Halo 3: ODST'', and ''Halo: Reach'' as well as ''Halo 4'' and ''Halo 5: Guardians'', the Spartan Laser uses 20% and 25% of its battery with each shot respectively. It is possible the Spartan Laser can change the amount of battery charge used in its shots, as the shots fired by Frederic seem dramatically weaker than those fired in the games.

* When the player picks up a Spartan Laser that has a battery percentage that does not divide by 20 evenly, they will be able to fire a 20% powered laser and another shot after that with the remaining charge.
