The Surface Book was a revolution for Windows laptops, but not much has changed for the Surface Book 3. Are the bones good enough to keep it relevant?

Solid Review. I used to work as an Engineer (now Patent Law) and have noticed that most decent workstations are able to display large assemblies fairly well in CAD, (even a docked ThinkPad T480S was adequate) but a stronger distinction comes when doing kinematics simulations or FEA, so I would recommend that for a better gauge of premium laptops in the field.

@stinkee2 4 жыл бұрын
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.

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.

I've been using the Surface Book 2 since it came out. Its gone through countless airplane trips and daily use. It is the best laptop I've owned and has been tremendously reliable. It as plenty of power. Rendering Blender you say, fine, render things on the go or the odd small project. But if you're using blender as a professional I hope you have a proper workstation for that. My feet have rested on this tucked under airplane seats in front of me for years. It literally has dents in the case from being dropped over the years. Still it runs 100%. I'll probably hang on to this until the Surface Book 4 comes along.
@rkw221 4 жыл бұрын
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 3 жыл бұрын
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.

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.

Having used my Surface Book since 2016, I can tell you that is still my do-everything device... (obviously except being a phone)... But yeah it is my poor's-man Gaming Rig, it is my main work device for 3D design, graphic design, etc.. it is my main entertainment device (netflix, youtube, etc)... 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....

@buccob 4 жыл бұрын
@@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 KZfaq 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.

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. I would undoubtedly also be using this for entertainment and some casual gaming (Civ, maybe Legend of Zelda, Hearthstone, etc). I can't find anything that has the versatility and well-roundedness of this machine.

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.

If you are designing a Privileged Access Workstation (PAW), you're above scenario is an actual thing we have to design for. SB3 s have been approved due to the security mentioned in the video. Also the sheer amount of glue makes it difficult to dissect without damaging internal components, another security boon as the guys with the nitrogen might break the ram rendering it useless.

I recently got a surface pro 7 and i love it, its exactly what i need from a device - a tablet with a stand, and a laptop if i need it to be AND it barely takes up any space. However, i dont see the point of surface book products. Its inbetween surface pro and surface laptop, and isnt really better than anything. Its just weird. Honestly, i think that microsoft should have made the laptop attachment available as a standalone device for surface pro, so you could use either the cover keyboard or the surface book thing if you need more power

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.

It's not just the tablet functionality. The main selling point is the canvas mode where you put the screen on the other way round and you get the angled screen for pen input along with the full battery and GPU. For various kinds of professionals this is pretty much the only device that negates the need for an array of other products.

I really love my base spec Surface Book 2 (the i5 version)it is absolutely sufficient for all of my word/excel (although sometimes a bit laggy with big files)/ and especially for OneNote). But I am a little bit disappointed that they haven't evolved it further. Perhaps they lack the motivation or haven't found the right "design-upgrade" yet. I will hope for the Surface Book 4, when it comes out I should be needing an upgrade anyway.

@linus you should start benchmarking multiparty teams calls with webcam usage. These are standard issue at my company and if you do a 5 person teams call... within 10 minutes they overheat and start freezing pausing and cams cut out. In a time of remote work, the inability to run a video conference call is a dealbreaker. We don’t have this problem with MacBook airs strangely enough.
