Review title of DannyExcellent

This is an amazing laptop, I got mine on the 24th of November. Excellent performance, great battery life, stunning graphics. I personally think the price is worth it. You'll hardly find something similar to the Surface Book 2. With all due respect to those rating and commenting without having bought one, there are some other affordable good laptops you can get.

Review title of SimonEverything you need

A really great product. Also the negative reviews are mainly people who (a) don't have the product and/or (b) find it expensive. Obviously (a) is irrelevant and (b) you need to maybe deduct 1 star if that is your view but 3-4!

Review title of NaderEpic Convertible

Probably the most powerful convertible in the market. 15" version not in the UK market yet, but I prefer 13.5" one. For tiny improvement in graphics (no extra USB ports or other extra options), you will be carrying a heavier laptop. So, I am quite happy with the screen size (13.5") and still, it feels quite a big screen. Either way, 13.5" or 15", this is the ultimate convertible in the market. Keyboard backlights are fine at night. But during the daylight, it will be easier to turn the backlight off. This is not a downside at all, as backlights are designed for the dark environment and not bright daylight. It could be more special if a machine with this price could come with a free digital pen. Unfortunately, you have to buy it separately and pay extra.

Thank you for updating the the 13.5" great we now have a fantastic surface book with 10 series graphics.

It looks a brilliant, but I would want a 15" Laptop at least, Bit expensive compared to other laptops available. At this price it should have at least the full office software included. plus a better warranty period!

Review title of RossMajor known battery / charging faults

My experience with the Surface Book 2 has been rotten, the device is very over-hyped and looks nice, but those are the only positive aspects. Firstly, battery life is massively exaggerated. I can't get 8-hours of basic use (simple browsing, Office suite etc). There is a frequent problem where the device will not restore from Hibernation mode. Just a black screen and no response from pressing the power button. I frequently have to hold the power button to hard power off and then boot again. Very inconvenient. The nail in the coffin for me is a known fault with the device failing to charge. With the power cable connected, I see "Plugged in Not Charging" or "Discharging" messages frequently and now the device won't charge at all. Worsened by the fact all this happened within 30-days of paying £2,749 for this sub-standard product. Then to top it off, the retailer (PC World) refused to issue a refund. Microsoft have disgraced themselves with this device.

Review title of James13.5 inch... But where's the 15 inch?

13.5 inch... I am not entirely sure it'll sell all that well. The 15 inch however - which is still unavailable in UK - is the laptop i'm pretty sure people were waiting for. I only hope it doesn't come out too late to be obsolete like the last Surface Book Performance Base. Good job on the 15 inch tech guys! :)
