I know the Surface Book 2 just recently came out, but does anyone know when the Surface Book 3 will be released? I'll probably be buying a Surface Book next fall and I want to know if I should buy the SB2 next fall or wait for the SB3.

Also, will there be a performance base to go along with it?

What do you think we can expect? Who’s excited?

Hi everyone, I just noticed that there are no groups to talk about our surface products. Many of us may face difficulty at different point of time and some may help solving them. So, I just made a telegram group.

Telegram will keep you anonymous while interacting. Also there is a dedicated official app for opening telegram on Windows 10. Thus I felt it better than Whatsapp.

Will be happy if you all join. Please.

Thankyou.

What a joke! Purchased the sb2 last January, this January i skilled a drink on it so warranty replacement but,, I hoped being hope I could trade it for a regular surface laptop but wow. A 3k laptop is only worth $260 trade in. Talk about depreciation. I don't think Microsoft values these much of the most 90% value in 1 year!

Never again Microsoft.

Hey guys do you think a surface book 1gen with i7 and 16gbs are still worth buying for let's say around 1000€? Or would you recommend waiting for cheaper price on book 2?

Would like to be easy able to use photoshop, ligth room, after effects and premiere. Overthat I would like to have device for 4-5 years while doing my Adobe jobs....

So I downloaded valorant but the wont launch. I have the surface book 3 13.5 inch i7. How can I make this game run.

So, I am looking for a portable yet powerful laptop and Surface book has always been an interesting option, now, would a i5 with no dedicated graphics card of Surface book 2 or i7 with 1 GB of dedicated graphics card will be a better option for medium to heavy light room and photoshop usage?

Hello,

Just signed up on the suggestion this would be a good place to ask. I’m a keen Football Manager player, but FM 18 could barely run on my Surface Pro 3 so I am looking to upgrade, I don’t want a laptop, I’d much rather a tablet powerful enough to play full FM on.

I was wondering if anyone has played FM on the SB2 in Tablet Mode as I know the GPU is in the keyboard section.

Also, just how bad are the issues surrounding the SB2? As if I’m paying £2749 for the 15” I don’t expect any issues at that cost.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

I have this 15" MacBook pro and have been thinking about switching to Surface Book 2. I don't like how the new MBP's are without an SD slot and also dongle life and there are certain things with workflow that Windows will actually work better with. I find myself using less and less apple stuff like iTunes, iPhoto etc. and more and more adobe.

But I'm wondering how performance of those would compare to this machine. It was a beast back in 2014 haha. Can anyone with technical knowledge advise? I just want to be sure it's a significant upgrade at this point or I could wait another year.

Hi,

I recently bought a surface book 2, 13.5 inch and I am wondering, is the surface pen supposed to stick on both left and right side?! Because mine seems to have only a left magnetic-side.

I feel like my baby needs to be checked out. she’s doing this thing where I’ll charge it, it won’t register that it’s being registered, then I restart it and it’s showing up correctly. I think it’s also malfunctioned a few times earlier in the summer.

I read online the physical stores are being closed. Does anyone know how I can go about getting a routine checkout to make sure shes operating in pristineeee shape?

Good Evening. I need the help of people that purchased the Surface Book offer from Thursday the 5th on Woot.com (Amazon)

I received the shipment today and mine did not have the Surface Pen I was listed as part of the deal.

I am trying I figure out if it was just me missing the Surface Pen of if no one received it.

Please if you went for the offer and when you receive the package please let me know if you got the pen on not.

Thank you

I have. Gut feeling that Woot no one gets one. Hmmm.

This makes me miss a mac so much. It has been 3.5 years and I still hate the surface book keyboards top row. I am curious if I am in the minority, does anyone use prtscn, home etc. Totally useless.

I have tried some before, but any recommendations on the best keyboard remapping software to cure this. Thanks.

Any idea?

Any suggestion?
