Love my Surface Book

on December 5, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes

First things first... if you just want a laptop there's definitely cheaper options. However, if you want the latest and greatest, this takes the cake for me.

I'm a web and software developer and absolutely love this thing. I went with the base level $1,500 option.

The surface pen is responsive and feels like writing with a real pen. No more printing/scanning documents for signatures or quick notes; simply write it right on there.

The tablet mode enables me to walk around the office a bit or simply walk into a meeting with just the tablet and have all my documents/presentations/projects ready to go. Afterwards, just pop that baby back on the keyboard and keep going - no need for flash drives or multiple devices. Also, I have the surface dock so simply setting this back on the keyboard enables me to use 2 external monitors, a full size keyboard and mouse.

My usual programs I have open are a text editor, Google Chrome with a jillon tabs open, Adobe Photoshop, Skype, and a some others here and there. I have experienced no performance issues with this usage, in fact it's very very fast.

The sound quality is actually really good for a tablet, easily fills up my office. Also, the keyboard really is amazing. The whole reason I bought this thing over the Yoga 900 was the Surface Book's superior keyboard

You have to pony up the dough for this, and I can definitely see the argument being made that it's overpriced. However, I have 0 complains and absolutely love it. I've owned several computers over the past 5 years and this one takes the cake.

My Best Buy number: 0585338000

I would recommend this to a friend!
