Review: Great Computer- Highly Recommended - I purchased the 13.5in Surface Book 2 with the i5 processor this January 2019 because my old computer broke and I was looking for an upgrade. I am a current business student going into my senior year, so I was really looking for a computer that would sustain the transition from business school into my professional field. The price here on desertcart ($1,320) is the cheapest price that I found after shopping around. In my information search I went to the Windows Store and the sales representative agreed that the desertcart price is pretty much as good as it gets. The style is very sleek and modern with the metal keyboard and the accordion hinge. I like that you can detach the tablet portion and turn it around to use it as a tablet. In tablet mode you can take notes for class, or you can use that mode to prop up the tablet for entertainment. The materials are good quality and you can feel that the computer will be long lasting. The only critique I have is that the back of the tablet scratches easily, however I am planning to get a case so that is not that big of an issue. I was looking for a lot of specific features in my computer. I was looking for a long battery life, a touchscreen, and a powerful processor; the Surface Book 2 checks all of those boxes. The Surface Book 2 actually has two batteries, one in the keyboard and one in the tablet portion making the battery very long lasting. The battery can last the entire day without charging with consistent heavy usage. The touchscreen is very responsive and the entire tablet component detaches and turns into a full tablet witch is very useful. The processor is very powerful and I am able to run multiple programs at the same time without any lag. In addition, I have found that it runs video games very well even with applications still running in the background. This product is great for people looking for a strong and versatile computer that can really do it all. I would highly recommend this product to students and professionals.
Review: An awesome machine but mine had some problems. - I used the machine for approximately 3 weeks and as completely happy and in love with it that I was, all of a sudden my GPU started crashing and one of my main programs I use that heavily uses the GPU would crash as well. I have returned the machine and am really hesitant to order another one because if this happens again, I will be putting desertcart out with this inconvenience of returning it again and they wont like that I am sure. I am really disappointed as I know this is the perfect laptop for me, but I have never had this problem happen after owning many many high end machines. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Basically what happens is that all of a sudden I hear the windows sound that something has been unplugged, and I look in the device manager and it only shows my Intel integrated graphics. I then have to restart the machine so the GPU will reinstall. I spent a good hour to an hour and a half with Surface support who couldn't figure it out either so who knows what was wrong with the machine. desertcart was wonderful through a few issues I had as well with the machine as it came with a faulty charger that had to be replaced via desertcart sending me a whole new machine because my current machine was not charging correctly when using the charger it came with. Lightening struck twice with the machine but I understand it is probably isolated because I cant find anyone who has had the problem I have had and the huge majority of those who bought this machine are thrilled with it so I know it is a great machine. Although I am really frustrated at how this all turned out, I am happy I purchased it from desertcart because they have always done the right thing and I am so pleased with their professionalism, their attentiveness to my needs, and they always want to make sure I am completely happy. I just hope I don't have to return another one if I get another one! I did not write this to discourage anyone from buying the product. I have owned several Surface products and love them so much, Microsoft and a few writers wrote articles about how I used the Surface Pro 4 when I had one so I love the brand. The Surface Book 2 is a great product and massively powerful. I just want others to know what happened with my system in case anyone else has the same thing happen to them. And I am confident if anyone else has issues with theirs, I know desertcart and Surface support will do whatever they can to help.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is new with the Surface Book 2?**
A: This is the only version of Surface Book line so far having USB-C port. However, you’re paying mostly for the dedicated graphic card NVIDIA Geforece GTX 1050 (or GTX 1060 for the 15.6”) while the last generations were built with less efficiently performing graphic cards: GTX 965M for the Surface book Performance Base (came out 2016) and the customized NVIDIA Geforce for the Surface Book (came out 2015). The customized one is said to made specifically for Microsoft and allegedly equivalent to 940M. They are just less efficient than 1050 1050Ti 1060 etc., but still pretty good for Photoshops, 3D Modeling, AutoCAD, SolidWorks... That’s how far I’ve known.

**Q: Does it come with a pen?**
A: It does not come with the pen. I was able to find the pen for $80. It typically sells for $99. You do not NEED the pen to use it. Your finger works too.

**Q: What’s the difference between this model vs. older Surface Book models?**
A: Hi, thanks for your interest in the Surface Book 2! The Surface Book 2 has up to 4 times more power than the original, has NVIDIA discrete graphics, and offers up to 17 hours of battery life. The redesigned Dynamic Fulcrum hinge offers greater stability and lower opening force for an improved user experience. 

Hope that answers your question,

Victoria
Surface Customer Care

**Q: Once the screen is detached is the GPU seperated from the tablet?**
A: I hope this will instruct anyone buying a Microsoft product. I bought anew one in March 2018 via Amazon. and received in April 2018. Within a few weeks I found out that it was defective. Instead of going back to Amazon, I went to a Microsoft store at Aventura Mall. They informed me that the computer was out of the initial warranty because they start it when the sell it to a reseller (in dec 2017). So they refused to exchange for a new one, and gave me a "refurbished" one that was also defective. Eventually I received a second "refurbished" one....when I bought a new computer for $2300 and ended up with a "refurbished" one...This is abuse of the consumer and a scam...Buy at your own risk...BUYERS BEWARE.....Microsoft is out to get anybody not buying from it its own store..Hope my experience serves anybody buying a Microsoft product.

### ⭐ A powerful computer plagued with some powerful problems
*by M***N on May 9, 2018*

This is an edited review. I purchased the Surface Book 2 for graduate school and some gaming when I travel. I cannot recommend it after several months of use. Yes, what everyone says about the Surface Book 2 is true: It's a luxury laptop which provides a great of power and functionality. But it also runs like a vintage American muscle car, unable to make the best use of its powerful engine while being plagued by critical problems. I have had to exchange one model already and I am now contemplating returning the second---I am by no means alone. Some have exchanged their Surface Book 2 over five times, encountering the same variety of critical failures over and over. The first problem you will likely encounter is that the Surface Book 2 will stop recognizing its main graphics card, reverting to the far less powerful Intel graphics card. You can forget about doing anything moderately intensive once your fancy Nvidia graphics card vanishes. Games will crash or run at potato level graphics, while any other moderately intensive editing program will sputter like they're running on a computer that costs 1/4 of what the Surface Book 2 does. Many people have encountered this problem. Some suggest that you can temporarily fix the problem by detaching the tablet and re-attaching it. But the problem *will* return. I routinely "lost" my graphics card with my Surface Book 2, even when I updated all my drivers and reattached the tablet. And then the computer kept telling me that the tablet was detached when it was in fact locked to the keyboard. The keyboard, as well as the charging port, failed to respond, letting the computer slowly die. I couldn't turn it back on once the computer failed to recognize its own keyboard, would not detach the tablet, and failed to charge. I had to return the computer, which Microsoft thankfully exchanged with a new Surface Book 2. But in the process I lost all my licensed software and could save only what I had backed up. I encountered the same problems with my new Surface Book 2 within weeks. My graphics card vanished and my Microsoft Surface charger burnt out and needed to be replaced (a $100 charger, mind you). I decided to purchase a $20 app that manually upgrades every driver on my computer, which may have solved my graphics card problem. But now I encounter blue screen video tdr errors, which force the computer to slowly reboot. I've been shut out of games, word editing, and many other tasks, which makes me risk losing progress on whatever I'm working on. On top of that, the Surface Book 2 has battery issues: Even when plugged it at lowest power settings, your computer will slowly deplete its battery while doing anything moderately intensive (e.g. gaming). Playing games on "best performance," the highest power setting, can take down up to 10% of your battery in an hour. Maybe that's not an issue for some, but I don't like knowing that my expensive computer can't sustain itself and is slowly taxing its non-replaceable batteries even while plugged in, You'll certainly get to know Microsoft tech support if you purchase this computer. One of the women I spoke to plainly told me that the Surface Books 2, while "great," was a common source of complaints. My other complaints are that the Surface Book 2 lacks a lot of what you'd expect from such a high price computer. Namely, it has no HDMI port and very few USB ports. You'll have to purchase another expensive item, the Surface dock, if you want the kind of connectivity you'd likely expect from a high-power, high-cost laptop. You'll also have to buy yourself a stylus if you want to make use of the touch screen, as Microsoft does not include one with the Surface Book 2 model (it does come with the Surface Book 1, however). That's gonna add up to a lot of moolah. Having said all that, you'll probably love this computer at first if you're fortunate to be able to afford it: it IS powerful, has a smooth keyboard, can run games like Witcher 3, and looks great. It reminds me of my mom's old Camaro, a beast of a car that could accelerate in a flash but couldn't idle too long at a stoplight or the whole thing would sputter out and die. You might want to consider something more sensible. Update: 12/2020 I wish I had not purchased this laptop, and instead put my money towards something cheaper for productivity and/or towards a desktop PC. The number of problems I have had with *both* of my Surface Book 2s is ridiculous. Just today, while working, my battery dropped from 50% to 0% in an instant. This happens to both batteries, making running the GPU impossible.
