Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Surface Book 2's ease of use, versatile tablet mode, and excellent battery life. Many also praise its performance and elegant design, though some find the weight to be a positive attribute. However, the high price point is a common concern, along with the limited screen size and port selection for some users.

    Does great as a laptop. Docking station with dual 4K capability is unfortunately absent. The tablet function is not really a tablet as it lacks many of the apps and functions of a typical tablet and there are some conspicuous issues like lack of PS Vue streaming capability on a windows machine.

    About a year ago the company I work with switched to an IOS Mac/Ipad system. I now use this Surface Book 2 as my "Take With" computer. The only thing I am unhappy with is that it does not have a modem, so I use my iPhone as a hotspot. This is a great little laptop.

    I was blown away by what Microsoft created when I used this device.. it's a laptop, a tablet, and it works great for digital art. I purchased the surface pen and began to recreate some sketches I've done on paper and the fluidity and accuracy is so good and I am extremely happy with it

    My only true gripe about this device is that it needs to have a more durable build quality. The build quality is still nice despite this. I love everything else. It does everything. I use it for video consumption, mild gaming, taking notes, writing reports, and browsing. It does all of these things extremely well. I would recommend this product as well as some protection.

    I had been looking at the Microsoft Surface Book 2 for quite some time. Finally bought it, and am very pleased with my choice. Screen is fabulous, tough screen is great. Only drawback is I use two PCs on a single display via HDMI and it appears I may not be able to get this to work. Took PC with me to Italy, France, Greece, Spain and Croatia and not a single glitch.

    I recently went from a MacBook Pro to this Surface Pro. There is a bit of a learning curve changing OS's but I like what I see so far. My only complaint is the lack of Apps on the Microsoft store but that doesn't take away form the fact that this a great laptop.

    I went back and forth between this and the macbook pro but after using this for a while I don’t think i will ever go back. That is until Apple releases a touch screen macbook aswell. The graphics card gives you great performance, even in gaming!

    This is certainly a very sturdy, professional-feeling device. Wonderful screen, great keyboard. I did return it however, for the larger 15" model and I haven't regretted that (I will use it primarily as a laptop, but with tablet ability).

    Love the fact that the top can come off of the keyboard, so the screen can become a tablet. Love that it is touch screen. Love how fast it runs. Only complaint- very short battery life unplugged. It’s not like my other computers where I close it and can open it back in the morning, it will be dead in the morning.

    I’ve been using my Surfacw Pro 2 for about a month now. I find it your just using it for easy computer related tasks this might be too pricey if an option but if you will utilize the detach ability of the keyboard and screen or the touchscreen options then the Surface has been designed for this type of use.

    Bought this for my son in college, said he loves it! Only issue is the band that runs side to side along the hinge, broke a month after use not really sure it makes any difference.

    This was my first laptop purchase, it was very user friendly, super fast, lots of memory, cool detachable feature to convert to a table with less weight but I found that it was just too big for ME to use a a table but as a laptop it was awesome!
