Needs stronger magnets for screen to stay in place when opening. Also does not respond to mouse clicks 20% of the time with an ergonomic wireless mouse.

Great all around laptop. Plays most AAA games including Dying Light 2 on medium settings. A little over priced but worth it if you can afford it.

Love my new Surface Studio. My original Surface was a Surface Pro 3 which I still have, and it works great. It's 10 years old and storage is full. Rather than have some content deleted, I decided I needed a new, updated computer. It's still new so I haven't experienced all that it is capable of.

This computer is amazing for photoshop and Lightroom and the pen is really accurate for masking work. You can lay the screen all the way down and use the pen as if you were writing on a piece of paper with your wrist resting on it. So glad i purchased instead of an Apple.

This laptop is horrible. It bricked after just 4 months of use and I had to send it to Microsoft. They said it would take 6-8 days where they would send me a refurbished one. They then said it would ship before 6-8 days. Then they said they it would be delayed and they could give me no time frame for a replacement. Meanwhile, they're store and Best Buy all have them in Stock. Horrible support.

The battery life on this unit is beyond horrible. In just over an hour I have consumed 38% of the battery doing simple Google searches. I have power saving on. There is no reason a Microsoft device should be performing this badly on Windows 11. I regret this purchase.

Overall this product is decent. I understand Microsoft is going for a 2-1 Windows device how ever this product is not it. Honestly the product has a better performance and great visibility with its. (Battery life) good
Surprisingly, the smaller battery on the Studio delivers somewhat longer battery life than the 15" Book. This might be coming from: lower screen resolution, Windows 11 optimization, more efficient components due to the non-detachable design.
The (keyboard ) con
The keyboard looks better on the Book for its uniform color with the base, and the Book's keyboard is one of the few that doesn't sink into a well due to the unique hinge design. The key travel is also slightly longer on the Book and the keys are a bit softer and less tactile.
The keyboard on Laptop Studio on the other hand, looks like a MacBook copy. But as every Surface Book user would know, the backlit would make the Book's keyboard unreadable in lit environment, and this is a non-issue on the Studio. Also the keys are more tactile on the Studio, which I personally prefer.
(Pen) con
Another clear win for the Studio. The lines are noticeably smoother thanks to the higher refresh rate and updated digitizer hardware. The pen storage location is also better on the Studio so that you never need to worry about the pen accidentally detaching from the laptop. The only minor drawback is that you now have to lift the front of the laptop to retrieve the pen.
Personally I like the Microsoft Surface Book where the pain is attached on the side by magnets instead of underneath the device.
The practicality of the Microsoft Surface studio is that it's unrealistic. For example with my Microsoft Surface Book 2 I can detach and carry around with me while looking at the Attached screen.
However, for the Microsoft Surface Studio it is extremely heavy. To me it feels like Microsoft has just basically copied the Microsoft Studio 2 desktop computer and just converted it to a laptop.
The only benefit or only person I would recommend this is if there were a 3D artist or an architect.
I don't understand the chief engineer of Microsoft Amitabh Mathrawala was thinking just copy and pasting One Design to a laptop
I personally enjoyed the Microsoft Surface Book 1,2,3 because it gives me the option of a laptop and a tablet.
However I wish at the Microsoft would have continued making a Surface Book 4 just with a powerful quad core processor and Nvidia GPU with a longer lasting battery
