The editors didn't like
The two-in-one design still feels awkward at times
And for some users
The detachable screen may be superfluous. The most interesting new components are only available in very expensive configurations
The Surface Book 2 is a stunning piece of work from Microsoft once again. It's a great example of a premium laptop with top-level design, performance and features. We only have a few minor quibbles such as the lack of Thunderbolt.It might be one of the be...

Abstract: Typing at work on Microsoft's new 15-inch Surface Book 2, I can't shake the feeling that this thing's not for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a powerful laptop, it's beautiful, and the workspace its giant screen affords made me completely forget I wasn't se...

Despite these slight niggles, there's no denying the Microsoft Surface Book 2 has unique appeal. It's a laptop that can be a tablet, a graphics pad and notepad, a workstation, portable workhorse and games console all in one compact package, and there's no...

Abstract: Sign up for our daily newsletter Image 1 of 12 Microsoft has released the new Surface Book 2 in the UK today but IT Pro managed to get a peek at it two weeks ago at Microsoft's Future Decoded conference in London. We looked at Microsoft's latest additio...
Great keyboard and touchpad, Versatile, and light when used as a tablet, Sharp, high-contrast, pixel-dense touchscreen, Excellent performance in all areas, Unparalleled battery life
Display's color accuracy could be better, GTX 1060 held back by custom driver, Extremely expensive
Yes. There's a lot to love about the Book 2, and very little to complain about. The system aced many of our tests and was a joy to carry day-to-day. That latter part is important. While it's a powerful 2-in-1 built for serious work, but it's also fun off...
It has the same lengthening hinge as the original Surface Book this means it can remain lightweight and doesn't require extra weight in the base to stop it tipping over, as it's already balanced, The screen can be removed from the keyboard so it can be us
It's very expensive, Display suffers from fingerprint marks and some glare in bright light, No longer comes with the Surface Pen stylus as standard you may need to purchase this as an optional extra
The Microsoft Surface Book 2 provides pretty much all you could want from a laptop, with good looks, handy features and plenty of power, but it comes at a rather hefty price...

Great muscle-wire release system to separate laptop and screen into two parts for versatile use, Oodles on power on tap, Solid design
It's rather heavy, Big price tag, Combined battery life is less than quoted, A little top-heavy and upright, Screen lacks ultra-wide colour gamut
While we had the chance to manipulate some 3D models and enjoy the fluidity of the Surface Pen on these devices, we can't profess to have really had the chance to test their power or performance, or to have a good measure of the battery life. We don't dou...
