And for some users
The detachable screen may be superfluous. The most interesting new components are only available in very expensive configurations
Hinge is stronger than before, Better CPU and graphics, 15-inch screen can fully compete with the MacBook Pro, Works well as a tablet
Expensive if you need more storage, Doesn't come with Surface Pen
The Surface Book 2 is exactly what we've wanted from a high-end Microsoft laptop. It's powerful, sturdy and its unique hinge doesn't come with any compromises. While there are cheaper Windows laptops out there with similar specs, the Surface Book 2 stands...

The form factor is still exciting, It's hard to believe that the tablet is as thin and light as it is, Great performance, great battery life, Microsoft continues to nail the basics: keyboard, touchpad, screen are all very pleasant

Quad-core processor and GTX 1060 graphics, 4K-class screen, Integrated receiver for Xbox wireless controllers, VR-capable graphics
16GB RAM maximum, Pen is now a separate purchase

While an astonishingly capable and beautiful device, the Surface Book 2 is too much laptop for the average buyer. Microsoft knows it too, hence the availability at under £1,000 of both the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro.But the Surface Book 2 remains its...
The lengthening hinge keeps the laptop balanced when the screen is positioned at any angle, Sharp and clear display, Excellent build quility with a premium finish, Simple log in with Windows Hello, Detachable screen means it can be turned into a tablet, M
Very heavy to carry around at nearly 2kg, and the hinge unfortunately makes it thicker than other laptops on the market, It's very expensive, Lacks a HDMI connection for connecting it to a television
The Microsoft Surface Book 2 15in is a stylish and versatile laptop, with the power to do anything you ask of it. Its high price, though, might be a bit too much for most people...
