Amazing peice of tech, not worth its price in 2020
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value1 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5I've been using surface studio 2 for a few weeks now. I bought the i7 ,32 GB RAM, 2TB SSD. The system itself feels great. However the performance feels a bit outdated compared to the latest all in one's at a cheaper price. The biggest disadvantage at this point in time is the price. The price is way too much for a hardware that is almost 4 years old. It simply does not deserve it. Its worthy of 2 grand but 4.7 grand is atrocious.

Can't Handle What it is Made For
|Posted .Owned for 11 months when reviewed.Features
Quality1 out of 5Value2 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5As a full time photographer, this computer sounded like a dream. It has the large screen, awesome and accurate colors, is made for artists etc. Well after 6 months this computer started slowing way down (i had about 1tb filled by then) and rebooting itself randomly, and now (ive had it for 11 months now) it reboots multiple times a day. I've been on the phone with support multiple times and they dont have an answer for me. I use a LOT of programs, PS, LR, Blogstomp, Photomechanic, jpegmini, spyder, Illistrator, Smartalbums, and various ROES. This computer can't handle my workload. Once I got into wedding season, which was at that 6 month mark it became no better than my old computer (which was 9 years old mind you). When I upload wedding galleries online, it takes hours because of the amount of large files I deliver. I do it at night since I can't work during the large upload due to the slow down (which is normal). So when my computer reboots in the middle of the download and I have to start over again and agian it becomes a big problem. Waste of $5000 I have not had this for even a year and I want to replace it so bad, but of course, I'm still paying this one off.

Constant issues every time it updates
|Posted .Owned for 8 months when reviewed.Features
Quality3 out of 5Value1 out of 5Ease of Use1 out of 5I have been without a camera on the device 80% of the time I purchased it in November only way to get it back on is to do a factory reset. Also the glare is terrible. If you have any light source neat by good luck. Getting support for it is next to impossible. The same chat responses over and over again. Uninstall the driver, update the drivers, roll back the drivers. If I could roll back anything it would be where I spent 5k on a computer that wasted hours of my time trying to make it function properly.

Q: QuestionCan you attach an external dvd drive?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I have an external DVD drive connected through a USB port and it works perfectly. I am using a Buffalo drive which uses a Hitachi LG Blu-ray drive mechanism and I assume that any high quality DVD drive having a USB3 interface should work well. This is a full height drive which comes with its own power supply, although I think that the machine probably supplies enough power for a thin drive powered through the USB port.
