Surface Book 3 - 13.5" Touch-Screen - 10th Gen Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - 256GB SSD (Latest Model) - Platinum

I researched the heck out of exactly what it was that I wanted prior to making this purchase. I do instructional work on the side of my birthday day to day (firefighter). I didn't want anything with a large footprint so I wanted to stay with something in the 13" range, sleek, minimal and powerful. I initially purchased the razer stealth and was blown away by how fast and efficient it ran programs etc. Windows hello worked well with it also, however wanted more from the laptop, touchscreen etc. I decided to send it back and opted for the less powerful yet more flexible surface book 3. As soon as I received it I knew I had made the right choice. Extremely flexible, I live the tablet mode, using the pen during instructional work and having the ability to articulate my point more so on web based instructional courses etc is a homerun. I did have battery issues initially, but this have since been resolved with the updates and when using office only, my screen would flicker almost as of it's adjusting to a different screen resolution. It hasn't happened within the past few weeks and I think that may have been a software issue as well. A bonus feature is that I have the option to game with xbox game pass and this little machine will play some Halo etc with zero issues. Quite impressive for how thin and small it is. Overall, this is a solid laptop although I did understand that there are several other laptops of similar fashion that execute certain tasks better. I don't agree with the price point, but I was able to purchase it with around $350 off which was a solid sale price. The flexibility is like no other, the options are endless and it's extremely well built. I'm very happy with the purchase. The web cam is ridiculous as well.

I purchased this surface book mainly to use for design. It works wonderfully with all the Adobe Cc programs. The stylus sensitivity is great, very accurate. I’m used to using a Wacom Cintiq and this was a more affordable and portable option for me. Also nice if you need to do design work while traveling. Overall I love the product and highly recommend it. Edit, 8+ months later: Amazon was the seller when I purchased my laptop, so it’s still working well. The only issue I’ve had is that the keyboard isn’t recognized by the tablet sometimes. So I have to use the surface detach command and then reattach it. It’s honestly not much of an issue though. I’ve seen a lot of reviews that sound like people have been receiving counterfeits lately, please be careful. My advice is to make sure where is says “Ships From” and “Sold Buy” that it lists Amazon or Microsoft (or another company you trust) as the seller. Otherwise there is no guarantee that your product will be legit. Hope that’s helpful, and that everyone has a good experience.

My only complaint is that sometimes the tablet will randomly go to sleep when docked with the keyboard (even while working on it). It doesn't happen often, though, so overall I'm very happy with it.

I am a proud veteran owner of many Microsoft products (hardware & software) for over 10yrs based on their performance, reliability and customer service, especially in my line of work. My last Surface Book I purchased from Best-Buy brand-new, and it lasted me over 6yrs with barely any issues; definitely nothing major. On 10/11/2021, i purchased a brand-new Surface Book 3, 13.5” Touch-Screen from antonline at Amazon. By 11/22/2021, the c-port was malfunctioning, and I requested assistance to multiple sources, including antonline and Microsoft. I figured out a temporary work-around from the c-port malfunction until finally one of the USB ports gave out! Throughout all this time, Microsoft Support was very hospitable listening to my explanations of the problems, along with their suggestions. However, nothing worked. No peep from anyone else. Once the USB port went out, Microsoft helped me by replacing my Surface Book on 3/1/2022. The new Surface Book works wonderfully in performance and speed; amazing quality product just like the previous, minus the hardware issues. Yesterday, 4/14/2022, the charger of the original SB3 died on me. I again have reached out to multiple sources, including antonline and Microsoft. Microsoft responded in 12 minutes. Still waiting on antonline to respond. This tells me that antonline is possibly selling refurbished/faulty/unreliable expensive products to customers while telling them it is new. For a new Surface Book 3 to have hardware issues with their ports within 4 months, and then the charger to malfunction as well in 6 months; something needs to be reviewed on the matter.

Este surface book 3 es realmente útil si eres diseñador, arquitecto, productor de contenido multimedia, la versatilidad de ser un laptop, tablet y studio te dan la posibilidad de explorar mas opciones en el campo del diseño, también se puede jugar varios juegos con el soporte de nvidia claro, No es una portátil para gamers, es mas un portátil para productividad y depende mucho del Ram y tarjeta grafica que adquieras. Un año de uso y no me ha dado problemas mas que las actualizaciones extrañas de windows, fuera de eso es resistente, ligera y el poder desmontar la pantalla para llevarla a cualquier parte como una tablet es una novedad. Corre programas profesionales como 3ds Max, autodesk, adobes, office y programas multimedia. Corre algunos juegos de alta gama (pero calientan el equipo). Si compras este equipo asegúrate de comprar el surface pen y/o surface dial para aprovecharla al máximo ya que no incluye nada mas que el equipo en la caja. Este portátil es una buena opción en 2021? -Seguro que si

Overall this is an excellent computer. I replace the Surface Book 1, 13" 8gb 128mb system with this one. The 15" screen is welcome , and the Nvidia GPU is excellent. The boost from 8Mb to 16Mb makes the systema lot quicker. The detachable screen is perfect for Photoshop painting and other pen based graphics applications. The only disappointment is that the battery life is no where near the touted time of over 10 hours. Real would use with graphics programs is more like 6 hours with both batteries, and way less in just tablet mode.

My old desktop computer died on me after many good years of use. My daughter uses the Microsoft Surface and she recommended I get one. I researched several of them and decided on this one because of the storage and processing capacity as well as the detachable screen to use as a tablet. It is very versatile, lightning fast and easy to use.

Good price. So far so good. It's a well engineered product...fast processor. I wanted it for music production, as a tablet viewing PDF sheet music, and as a basic laptop. The large tablet screen is my main reason for the purchase. It has enough RAM for most uses, SS drive is small but it will do. Battery life is not what they claim.

The Surface Book 3 delivers a unique combination of processing power, exceptional graphics, tablet operation and good, old-fashioned build quality.

J’ai reçu aujourd’hui concernant l’ordinateur portable Microsoft Surface Book 3. Malheureusement, l’article présente plusieurs défauts majeurs : 1. Chargeur non compatible : Le chargeur fourni ne correspond pas au modèle de l’ordinateur et ne fonctionne pas. 2. Égratignures sur l’ordinateur : L’appareil présente des marques visibles. 3. Stylo manquant : L’accessoire inclus normalement avec ce produit n’était pas dans le colis. Je suis très mécontent et déçu car je m’attendais pas à ça

I've owned both the SB2 and this. First and foremost, the reason why I got this upgrade was because my SB2 ran into hardware problems (studio mode did not read USB ports or GPU). Luckily, I haven't ran into any issues of that sort with this (...yet), but there is a prominent issue with all surface devices: Dock disconnections. I've heard that this is just an issue of design, but that makes me wonder why a company like Microsoft hasn't fixed it, if it's just a design issue. The issue is that the screen connection to the keyboard is not rigged. This causes the screen to wiggle and disrupt the connection between it and the keyboard. This causes the GPU, SD slot, and any connected devices (USB) to disconnect. I love this product, it's my favorite all-round machine. It can run lower end games (who needs ray-tracing anyway) , run programs for audio, video, etc. editing, and the touch screen is amazing. I don't see myself needing a new laptop any time soon, which is good because of its premium price. But if you're going to buy it, and like to work while laying on you bed (or any soft/bouncy surface) you better start changing your work habits: It's a table or nothing with this laptop. Heating is also a concern. If you're just doing writing or something, it's great. But if you so much as ask for the GPU to walk, it'll turn into the sun. This isn't helped by the fact that the entire body is metal. Get a standard fan pointed at this thing if you're doing anything moderately intense and only work in the winter. I honestly think the reason why I prefer my room to be below freezing is because I've been exclusively using the surface book line for the past few years and it's made me acclimated to colder environments. It may also be because I'm Canadian. Finally, I would highly recommend getting this product from an actual Microsoft store. Warranty is a hassle, but most of these devices run into issues in first year (not sure why.. manufacturing maybe?). Amazon is cool and all, but the extra effort is required for this device. It's like a baby... you love it, but it makes some days a living hell. I'd say this is more for students and people who like to a lot of things (music, art, etc.) but not to a degree which would require a dedicated machine built for that sort of work.
