The Surface Book's design isn't for everyone
But I simply fell in love with its futuristic look. Whether it looks odd or just ahead of the curve will depend on your perspective
But you can't deny Microsoft has made a daring move with its dynamic fulcrum
Stunning display
All-round fast performance
Slim and light
Option for discrete Nvidia graphics

The editors didn't like
While I praise this hybrid for its incredible performance
There are heavy limits on just how many games it will play with only one gigabyte of video memory. The early bugs are also something I can't ignore
But they're to be expected from the first run o
Regardless of whether these vast improvements are worth it for someone that already owns the original Surface Book
Microsoft is asking those customers to pony up the original price and then some for said upgrades. That the firm isn't offering the Perform
Premium price
Questionable design choices
Backlit keyboard
Some software bugs
Configurations with the optional Nvidia GPU and more storage get very expensive. There are some first-generation quirks
Including an awkward gap between the screen and base when closed
Expensive. Really expensive
Struggles with gaming
Despite its graphics card
Average battery life
Hinge fairly upright at maximum and reverse position not solid enough
Weighty
Expensive
Would like a smaller version (more Surface like)
Combined battery not as claimed (around 8-hours average)
Windows has a tablet app gap
Software bugs
Tabletonly battery could be longer
Heavy for a tablet
HiDPI mode fails for desktop apps
Interface is a mess if you dig deep enough
Disappointing tablet battery life
Buggy
Functionality can be hit/miss
Super expensive
Can be quite buggy at times
Do you really need the tablet?
Rather expensive
The grey attracts marks
It's also slightly thicker and heavier than last year's version
And retains the odd gap on the folding hinge. Expensive compared to other options. Doesn't meet minimum specs for VR gaming
So expensive it hurts
Battery life in tablet mode is short
Connectivity low without dock
Big starting price for tiny storage/RAM
Rather pricey
A bit hefty
Mediocre tablet battery life
Heavier and thicker than some competitors
No USB Type-C
Astoundingly expensive
Spongy keyboard
Very
Very expensive
Screen isn't set up for serious design work
Heavy
Full performance only possible with keyboard connected
Expensive price tag
Need optional dock at a cost of £164.99 to ensure you have a sufficient amount of USB ports

display eccellente, elevata autonomia, versatilità della soluzione 2 in 1,
nelle prove i modelli di pre produzione hanno avuto qualche problema a seguito degli update, ma contiamo sul fatto che saranno risolti quando Surface Book arriverà in Italia,
l'ottimo schermo, l'autonomia prolungata e la soluzione versatile fanno di Surface Book uno dei notebook più interessanti in arrivo. I prezzi si preannunciano un po' salati...
