[@hunterm9]

I'd recommend the HP Spectre. Not perfect, the surface definitely gets better durability and ease of "switch" to 2-in-1, but basically everything else is the same or similar, at half the price.

[@stinkee2]

Depending on how you define "good", the Surface Book 1 could work out for you. I bought one after the Surface Book 2 came out years ago and I still use it daily. It was relatively cheap on ebay and it feels pretty tough. I've carried it around in backpacks and briefcases loaded with stuff and the hinge remains strong and the finish is mostly scratch free. It's not super powerful (I got the lowest end model) but it has always been enough for me. I have a desktop for gaming so I don't need much from my laptop. The keys haven't worn down, the original pen still works (and I only had to replace the pen's non-rechargeable battery once!), the batteries are still good, It's still pretty much like new except I had to dab some gorilla glue on one of the rubber feet to keep it from coming off recently. If something happens to this one I might even buy another one to replace it.

[@stinkee2]

In addition to all that, I'm seeing them for ~$500 on ebay right now for the low end models, ~$1200 for the models with dedicated GPUs and such.

Wecams on Surface devices has been underrated until we gone to lockdowns, then we realized that we cams are still relevant and how crappy on most laptops. Even MacBooks for whatever reason equipped really bad Webcam for a premium laptop. Hopefully we will see better Webcam on other OEM's next time. Then Microsoft will feel the competition and might try to slim down the bezels. Not that it's really huge considering its a tablet, but maybe as thick as iPad Pro bezels which isn't razor thin but thinner that Surface Book, and iPad Pro is a pure tablet.

[@rkw221]

super review... you hit all my needed bullet points! An overlooked point is of you detach the saucer section the battery life is very short, 2-3hrs...but if you just flip the display around into attached display tablet config you have the full 12hr or so battery life. It's heavier in that config but for me it's a difference maker. Thanks for the very helpful video!

[@Zer0kx]

I'm still using the first surfacebook, and while it does have its problems, I don't regret getting it. Long battery life, being able to draw with a pen on the screen, even able to detach it, and an actual GPU that is usable makes it really great IMO. If I could make one change, I'd improve on the monitor hinge. It would be a lot better if it could go 180 degree so you can put it securely on the desk without turning it around via detaching. The screen is just a bit too wobbly to leave the base attached while drawing more than a quick sketch.

[@TR1AGE]

To be honest the lack of new design was disappointing but not very different than what Apple has been done with MacBook Pro design for 10+ years

Nick M I owned a MBP from 2013 up until recently when I sold it and upgraded to a MBP 2020. They are very much different designs. I don’t know what you consider a change of design, but to me the design has evolved a lot. They both feel completely different and look reasonably different too.

[@irfanam]

[@Rickyelriko]

Hi, I just bought a Surface book 3, and I have a dell wd15 dock which i use work my work computer (dell latitude 5490). The wd15 dock does work with my surface book 3 via usb c, however it is not as smooth as i would like. When I plug it, only 50% of the time charges my laptop, i have to unplug and plug it in until it starts charging. The other thing is that the wd15 dock is connected via hdmi to my monitor, and when i plug the dock into my surface book,, the external monitor is not detected. i have to unplug the hdmi from the wd15 and plug it in again, and it works. So i have to do all these to have the dock charge and provide connection to my monitor. Am i missing something here? like a driver or something? Or is this expected since the dock is DELL and my laptop is MICROSOFT?

I was lucky enough to get the original Surface Book halfway through university, and it’s still in good shape now. At the time it completely changed how I worked, with handwritten notes being Ctrl+f searchable in One Note and no more carrying paper around for problem sheets was incredible. Having the pen to write down maths equations and still having the power to run Inventor or OpticStudio interactively is something I still don’t see many laptops doing well. Also used the screen release several times a day for ~5 years now, and it’s still working fine. Completely recommended if you can stomach the price.

I even took a couple of class courses on it. This is the only device that gives me unmatched versatility for conceiving ideas, sketching, then designing and modeling....

[@faahym]

This has been the comment I've been looking for. I've been debating between the Macbook Pro and the Surface Book for pretty much all the reasons you said.

[@buccob]

@@faahym what's your background? And what do you expect to do with either of those devices?... As an example, I am a mechanical engineer but now I mostly work as an industrial designer and graphic designer (self taught). I can run SolidWorks 2017 ok with small assemblies (using the dGPU), with older versions I was able to run solidworks with intel's integrated gpu. I occasionally draw and sketch in Sketchbook, nice enough to present design ideas, but not the best for say, an illustrator. Lastly, I play games but limited to 720p or 1080p in low settings for titles usually older than 2016... (Dying Light, Alien Isolation, Outlast 2, etc) Obviously the Surface Book 3 would be more than capable for all the things I listed, but I still wanted to make this remark since you might find yourself in a similar position 4~5 years down the road. All in all is a great device if you like Windows and if you know you can at least try to explore its different use cases. I still detach my display for reading, watching KZbin or Netflix, but I know people that uses the SB like a regular laptop and that is a bit of a waste of engineering and the investment on this device.

[@Emilyspace_]

Been looking for this type of comment also. I'm also a mechanical engineer and going back to grad school so most of my note taking needs a pen for writing out extensive equations with all sorts of greek letters.

Hi, Does the Surface screen next to 3 15 inches work in 120hz mode?

[@am40586]

Im not a creative and am mainly interested in the 3:2 aspect ratio for getting productivity work done on MSOffice for work while having the tablet function for general content / web browsing from the couch at the end of the day. I know its geared at creatives but am willing to pay the premium for a device that does both those things. In the use case i described, do you think this is a fit? Again I dont need the best creative experience, just a big 3:2 screen for office productivity and tablet function. Also is 15in too cumbersome for reading as a tablet?

I'm considering purchasing the Surface Book 3 15 "; is the 15" GTX 1660TI Max-Q suitable for software such as solid works, Fusion 360, blender etc. Did it handle the Millennium Falcom as well as the Quadro RTX? Thanks Ray

[@dpfutbol]

What I'm most interested in is how the GTX 1660 Ti compares to the RTX 3000 if I'm wanting to use programs like 3ds Max, Maya, and ZBrush? (I've read that ZBrush only uses the CPU). How about programs like Google Sketchup? How about Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator?

i have to yet to see a comparison or pros and cons video between a surface pro 7 and a surface book 3 with the same processor setup. does anyone know which one to recommend? I currently use an ipad pro for artwork and a thinkpad p52 for other stuff but some gaming. i was wondering if either of these would give me a balance of those two things.

Personally, I love the design simply because it works. Yes, you can probably find it possible to do tweaks to the design, but there is frankly so much power in this laptop (not at all like a desktop, but that also another entity all together). Besides, keep in mind that you can only pack so many features into a laptop before things like weight starts to become an issue.
