finally pulled a trigger to replace my rMBP with Surface book 2. I do not regret it for a moment. It's feature packed, still not as smooth UI as MacOS, but features make up for the difference

Having only owned the Surface Book 2 for a few weeks, I can say I am very impressed. This is an incredibly versatile hybrid. It is good enough for all my day to day computing needs, small and light enough to be transportable and the flexibility to use as a tablet either detached or placed flat...

Bought this product for a particular purpose...to create a new HD children's animation. The animator found the computer easy to use with chosen animation software. Screen calibration was good, ease of drawing using the stylus and audio sound providing a professional product.

Looks lovely, and you'll feel cool walking around with it but.... High res screen lovely ... except you'll probably want to have a monitor as it is very small for the resolution. Screen hinge ... looks cool but actually is annoying with the limited tilt (approx 100 dgs) Detachable lid ...

This is an exceptional laptop that I have been completely blown away by how capable it is in relation to its size. Microsoft hows outdone themselves and created their best product yet. The screen is spectacular and I love the 3:2 aspect ratio, it works great for both tablet mode and laptop mode.

I purchased this laptop for only $1499 at my local Costco Warehouse and it works amazing!

If you're a designer nothing can really match the power and reliability of the Surface Book 2 in the same price bracket. I had to purchase the stylus separately otherwise I would have rated it a 5.

Fantastic machine. Very pleased with the hardware and performance. One issue though, Microsoft's fault, is there is no printed visual accompanying the laptop showing what each connectors is. As a result, we bought the wrong connector to connect this to an external Monitor.

I purchased the Microsoft Surface Book 2 for my daughter who is starting college this fall. She is constantly on it and loves it.

We liked the original Surface Book on review here at T3.com. We loved its flexibility and do-anything capabilities - it was just so powerful and premium that, despite a few minor issues, it was not hard to wholeheartedly recommend. And here, with the new Surface Book 2, nothing has changed.

Massively powerful for a 2-in-1; Battery life is excellent; Lightweight despite size and spec; Screen is superb; Can play modern AAA games at high settings

Surface Pen is not included; Drab grey finish; Speakers are so-so
