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

当决定 Surface Pro 4 和表面的书，你真的不能去非常错误的。每个是一个伟大的设备，然而他们似乎针对稍有不同的观众。如果你需要一台新笔记本电脑随便使用在家里或者在学校做笔记的人，然后你会保存在 Surface Pro 4 的现金是不可否认的特别考虑到类似的规格。surface pro 4和surface book对比哪个好什么也是不可否认的然而，是如何优雅看表面书，和一个人真的认为设计是重要的表面的书或许是更好的选择。这两种设备利用微软的Windows 10，这很大程度上被认为是迄今为止最好的微...
回过头来看熬了半夜等来的这款全新Surface Book，外观设计方面其实并没有什么值得多说的地方。依旧是我们熟悉的设计风格，不过由于没有拿到真机，尚且没办法确定它是否改进了上代产品设计上的一些小瑕疵。硬件方面的升级应该算是新产品带来的最大亮点，特别是图形处理能力方面的提升，可能会让更多设计师朋友为之倾心，不得不说微软在这方面的考虑显然要更远一些。整体而言，没有等到“名正言顺”的Surface Book 2算是一个遗憾，但对于新款Surface Book，我们又没办法“埋怨”，毕竟它确实很棒！...
