Surface Book 2 Overview
The Surface Book as a whole is pretty surprising. Great for PC games, programming, drawing, and general computer usage. It’s obviously portable and an impressive 13.5-inch screen, meaning a Netflix binge is just another purpose to add to the list.
Impressively, the Surface comes with a long lasting battery, an average 8GB of RAM, and a very sleek design. But good performance and design have been pretty common with Microsoft products. Sadly extras for Microsoft products can be a bit over priced. For example, the Surface Pen is a hefty $99 for a replacement.
While additional add-ons can be a bit costly, the basic configuration of the Surface Book solves the majority of computing needs.
