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

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)

Windows has a tablet app gap
Software bugs

Do you really need the tablet?

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

Big starting price for tiny storage/RAM

試過 Microsoft Surface Book 整整一個星期，筆者認為在很多地方也算令人滿意，尤其是打字舒適度方面，它可說是可以與一般手提電腦媲美，感覺是現時各部合體機中，最令筆者滿意的一部。不過 Surface Book 也有不少缺點，最大問題是使用時間不足，在正常使用情況下也只能用到 4 個鐘唔到，如果大家要帶出街用又一定要用 Windows OS，筆者真的寧願選回使用時間較長的 Surface Pro 4。另外熒幕雖然色準極高，但色域不足，雖然用來執相剪片未必會偏色，但色域不足可能會令有些顏色，...
MS 首部自家品牌的 Notebook ，用上最新的 Skylake 架構無論在省電及效能都比上一代強勁，也許是現時最強勁的 2 合一機種。 不過售價都不便宜，但 13吋有如此輕便又有 GPU ，有 1,024 觸感筆及可以拆成平板除了它就沒有別的選擇，跟 MBP 比起來在硬件上有絕對的優勢，而且造工亦有非常高的水準。不過 Mac OS 及 Windows 在使用上兩者仍有很大的分別，要讓 Macbook Pro 用家過檔，相信是一班 90% 時間以上在 Macbook 上使用 Windows 的用家，而...

Abstract: 不知道大家有沒有發現，現在不論是在咖啡廳、速食店、或是身邊朋友，看到的筆電都是 Macbook 居多？面對岌岌可危的筆電市場，微軟這次終於跳下來，推出一款全新 Surface Book，而且還直接指名 Macbook Pro 為對手，不論效能或質感都一次到位，建議售價 1,499 美金起。筆者第一次看到 Surface Book 時，想到的並不是 Apple Macbook，而是其他筆電品牌情何以堪….況且微軟還是一條龍下來，不過仔細了解後，才知道原來 Surface Book 也是有平板模式，所以不算是...
