CPU will hang out around 0.85 GHz and I can type all day at 40% brightness. I set it to Best battery life and it'll go 8+ hours easy. You can see the CPU GHz and brightness ratchet up and down. However, the new Battery Slider on Windows 10 Creators Edition really makes simple and measurable difference.
Not one memory issue.īattery Life and Management is WAY betterīattery Life on my Surface Pro 3 was "fine." You know? Fine. I have had zero RAM issues, and I'm running Kubernetes and lots of Docker containers along size VS, VS Code, Outlook, Office, Edge, Chrome, etc. More RAM is always nice, but 16 gigs is today's sweet spot. Even WinForms has been updated to support HighDPI so I have zero HighDPI issues in my daily life in 2018. Only the oldest apps I run have any real issues. I wrote about how running any DPI greater than 96dpi on Windows has historically sucked back in 2014, but literally every little Windows Update and Office update improves it. The high resolution issues in Windows are 90% handled IMHO Having a 15" screen again makes me wonder how you 11" MacBook Air people can even concentrate.ģ240 x 2160, (260 PPI) is a weird resolution to be sure, but it's a hell of a lot of pixels. Which sadly is more than I can say for my iPhone 8+. There's a full sized SD card reader and a 3.5mm headphone jack You can charge and dock the tablet part alone. It's just 4.2 lbs and it doesn't feel unwieldy at all.
15" is a NICE sizeĪfter years of "Ultrabooks" I missed an actual high-powered desktop replacement laptop. Here's a random list of a tips, tricks, things I didn't realize, and general feelings about the 15" Surface Book 2. I considered myself reasonably familiar with the Surface product line as I bought a Surface Pro 3 a few years back for myself (not a work machine), but I am genuinely impressed with this Surface Book 2 - and that surprised me. It's quickly become my go-to machine, and I'm often finding myself using it more than my main desktop machine. I recently got a updated laptop for work, a 15" Surface Book 2.
