More power for leisure and work
A powerful laptop that arrives designed to be a worthy successor to the original Surface Book that arrived two years ago.And comes in two sizes, to fit all types of users, each offering different features. Tighter in the 13-inch model and more powerful in the larger 15-inch model, which is designed for users who work in more professional environments.
With the logical variations regarding the processor we choose, both models share a series of common characteristics Thus we find the same connections , Bluetooth 4.1, two USB-A and one USB-C connections or the use of two 5-megapixel cameras on the front and 8-megapixel cameras on the rear. In addition, both models have support for Windows Hello or the backlit keyboard.
The new laptops are compatible with the Surface Pen and Surface Dial and are ready to fully integrate with the entire Microsoft ecosystem.They come from the factory with Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and are therefore intended to be used both at work and at work.
And that's because they are powerful enough to smoothly move games in 1080p at 60 fps or work with the Adobe Creative suite cloud. And of course, they will also allow you to use the Mixed Reality in which they put so much effort from Redmond and that comes reinforced with the Fall Creators Update.
Price and availability
Although they are not yet on the market, the new equipment will not be long in coming and if you want to get hold of a Microsoft Surface Book 2 in any of its two variants you should know that will arrive on the market from November 16, although the countries in which they will be available are unknown. We do know the price, which starts at $1,499 for the basic 13-inch model and 2.$499 for 15-inch
