There is no doubt that Microsoft Surface lot after the launch of the Book that one bright spot for all are stunning. Powerful performance, thin fuselage, unique hinge design, aesthetically pleasing overall shape, constitute the Microsoft notion of what is the best laptop.
That's right, Microsoft Surface Book known as the "ultimate power", it is born to and Apple MacBook Pro, as well as the top Windows laptop just positive. Surface Book is first and foremost a pen, but it is a tablet. There is no doubt that high end determines the price of its high-end positioning. Believe after reading press conference, many people are quite wallet bleeding heart want them to a computer. Then, Surface is the Book a good laptop, also is said to be a collection of stunt again?
Since Microsoft called Surface Book laptop, then we first judged it as a laptop.
When you first see Surface Book, it is easy to associate it with MacBook Pro comparison. Big touchpad, keyboard keys with moderate intervals, the overall combination of silver and black color is just right, these are bright spots on the MacBook Pro, but Microsoft was not copying Apple. And Surface Pro 3, the Microsoft Surface Book selection of magnesium as a material, so it feels soft, not as cold as the aluminum MacBook feels. Microsoft's flagship location is reflected here, apparently aimed at people who like Apple design.
Open Surface Book requires two hands, magnetic seal because the two parts together, so that when you walk in with it shaking. It exploded not that afraid of screens, primarily to protect the hinge. After the opening, Surface Book of beginning of the 13.5-inch screen will make you feel a bit strange. Reason to blame, because it seems a little high, it is because Microsoft chose the 3:2 aspect ratio, rather than the vast majority of 16:9 or 16:10.
Honestly Surface Book the movie experience is not ideal, because there will be black, but Web page look and feel great, because the screen height even more. If you spent more time on the Web, then you might fall in love with this strange screen. In addition, the Surface color reproduction and viewing angle of Book is also very good, it's the vivid color, 1700:1 of contrast makes the black handle is very impressive. Dim Windows of 10 overall tone, which is very important.
Microsoft keyboard and touchpad Surface Book up and down a lot of work, it also makes you feel it a place in high point. Surface of touchpad Pro 3 poor accuracy, but too small, but the Surface is completely the opposite of the Book, it is a sizeable glass trackpad, and give the feeling of MacBook. Touchpad in Windows experience is very smooth, but it operated Chrome and the Edge, two browsers intermittent when there were subtle. Microsoft says there will be an update to solve this problem.
Typing with the Surface Book beginning may make you feel uncomfortable, because the key travel is too short, leading to feel hard, you may take a few hours to get used to. But when you get used to the Surface after the Book of keyboard, laptop keyboard may make you feel very simply. Key interval Surface Book very good, other manufacturers should be strengthened in such detail is.
Surface Book powerful but Basic Edition and a high coordination between small dimensional differences do not. Talk about basic version first, it has 8GB of RAM, there is also the new Intel i5 processor. Performance, Basic Edition soon, basic Web browsing, light Photoshop, ordinary desktop application runs with no problem. Followed by 16GB RAM and I7 processors with high version, if only basis, you do not feel the huge difference between the high and low distribution, but to play the game, and I7 processor and Nvidia GPU brings improvement was obvious. Nvidia drivers haven't kept up, so too much is bad for the performance evaluation, but the game runs good, low in special effects are smooth, this contrast most of the deformation is very good.
Surface on the Book of the most unique and most interesting is the new dynamic pivot hinge, it chic, looks great. Hinges have a one node, allow you to adjust the screen angle adjust voice sounds strange a little fun. Hinge adjustments are not infinitely, but daily use is certainly no problem.
Due to Surface Book itself is a Tablet, which hinges on the design has to have some compromises. Hinge resistance is as big as the laptop, when you are typing or touch screen can feel it shaking. Many Windows in one that has this problem, and even Microsoft are not perfect. Surface Book can sometimes make you feel when you put it on your lap time would be more obvious.
A hinge problem has become a Surface Book major weakness. If you put it together, the screen and keyboard is not attached, but would leave an obvious gap. The pore Surface Book is here a lot, and dust, dirt, hair, and any small will run in, touch the keyboard or screen.
When it comes to flat-panel parts, set a small key on a Microsoft keyboard, used to separate screens and keyboards. The design is very interesting, as long as you can pull out the screen, as a large plate to use. Surface weight of the Book with low and high distribution is 1515 and 1579 g, flat state is 726 grams, all in all very good.
Because the 3:2 aspect ratio, with a flat Surface Book is like holding a stack of paper (of course not weight). This may be Microsoft's design ideas, so its Surface Book called "electronic Clipboard." Would you normally use this mode to handle the paperwork, playing games or watching a movie or something, after all, is not appropriate. You can take back the screen against the keyboard, make the latter a bracket, but it will make it more bulky, doesn't make much sense.
New progress of Surface Pen is not small, but it is performance in Surface Book is not satisfactory. With a slight delay, if you want to draw a headache. Just remember to take notes, this is no problem. Surface on top of the Pen "Eraser" can start Cortana, however I do not know why it has little voice recognition. Surface Pen can be adsorbed on the Surface side of the Book, but when I put it in the bag will always fall off. Alexander McQueen iPhone 5 Case
Surface screen parts of the Book itself is a full-function PC, but it goes beyond just the touchpad and keyboard at the bottom. Two USB interfaces at the bottom, an SD card slot, mini DisplayPort, some models still have significant independence. Surface Book is designed for a screen at the bottom of the charging base when you don't need a flat state, it can be easy to take back. The design is clever, but the biggest drawback is the need to have a certain power to start. You can remove the screen, but when the charge runs out of time, you will have to wait at least sufficient 10% to back.
In use, notably Surface Book software problems, almost every blue screen. Microsoft says this and SSD, and associated fix is in place. In addition, after removing the back screen, touchpad gesture recognition failure may occur. From the control screen and pick up the applications occasionally crash. Judging from these details, pushing Microsoft Surface Book may be a little hasty.
To say that flat part that had to ridicule about battery life. Surface Book tablet mode battery life of only 4 hours, but Microsoft said "laptop mode 12 hours autonomy" was not deceptive. According to tests, base range for 13 hours, this is very rare for Windows notebooks. If you are watching HD movies, Photoshop, Internet under these mixed operation, the battery life is about 7 hours. Charging, the tablet itself took 2 hours, and bottom with that 4-5 hours.

Summary
Surface Book after all, Microsoft claims that the "ultimate laptop"? So close. Why, because you can't help but wonder: If only a purely notebook computer well. New design brings screen flickers very annoying, weird space so you have to clean it every day. Yes, the Surface of the Book is a fabulous product, it beautiful on the screen, battery life amazing, keyboard and trackpad comfortable, this is a collection of various elements of the notebook computer, but Microsoft wanted to do attempts to weaken the Tablet experience. Moreover, the flat pattern of usage is not too high.
Surface Book proves that Microsoft has the ability to make a full compete with MacBook Pro laptops, but it needs to be a more reasonable match to all innovations. But anyway, Surface Book can definitely leave a very strong impression, even having a defect, mix it as this may still be the best.
If Microsoft simply to do a laptop, that Surface Book is probably the best Windows laptops, but it is not.
