Microsoft has debuted a 15-inch version of the Surface Book 2, which is out in the US and is coming to the UK this year. But thankfully, the 13.5-inch edition has already made it to these shores.
The Surface range has always been designed to showcase what Windows is capable of – and to take the fight for high-performance mobile computing to Apple. Microsoft has made no secret of the fact it’s targeting Apple’s creative heartland, and the success and usefulness of the Surface Pen is a big part of this assault.
The Surface Book 2 is very much a follow-up to the original, but the landscape for Surface devices has changed a little now that Surface Laptop has arrived. Surface Laptop is a Surface Book for those who just want a laptop, leaving a kick-ass Windows tablet they can use with Surface Pen. It’s a jack-of-all-trades, with complete versatility to go alongside awesome power.
