A simply gorgeous 4.5K touchscreen
Microsoft's optional Surface Dial significantly improves the experience
Eliminates separate drawing tablet by letting you ink on the display
As goodlooking a desktop as you'll find. Everything about this screen is excellentthe drawing
The moviewatching
Everything. The superflexible hinge is basically magic

The editors didn't like
Sensitive rear hinge needs a locking mechanism
Surface Dial is a clumsy peripheral
High price tag and Windows 10 are a hard sell for Mac loyalists
Desktop size
Workstation price
Mobile performance
Putting all the ports on the back is an ergonomic disaster
Professional systems need to be able to scale and grow and adapt
Fan noise
Doesn't use the latest components
Lacks expandability options
Expensive in every available configuration
Last-generation graphics
CPU mean you can't watch streaming 4K content or plug in a VR headset
No USB-Type C/Thunderbolt 3 ports
Surface Dial costs $99 extra
Needs better traction
Placing all expansion ports on the rear of the base is inconvenient
Massive display reflects quite a bit of light
A premium experience with a premium price attached
You're paying a lot of money for middleoftheroad specs
With no way to upgrade. This isn't quite a gaming rig
And it should be. The Dial needs more to do before it's worth $100
Surface Studio is extremely expensive
And doesn't include the flashy Dial accessory by default. It skips newer graphics chips that support VR hardware. Support for the Dial is limited right now
And even compatible programs don't always use it in a pract
I can't recommend that you actually go out and buy the Microsoft Surface Studio. At $4699, it's very expensive — for an all-in-one PC and for a PC at all, even considering its heavy emphasis on design and screen and touch interaction over outright computi...

Quite pricey, Surface Dial not included, Old graphics tech
The Surface Studio is an incredibly clever, powerful and gorgeous all-in-one PC that, judging by its price, is clearly not for everyone. Regardless, Microsoft may very well have set the bar for all-in-one PCs in the same way it has for 2-in-1 laptops...

Stunning screen, Accomplished drawing performance, Stylish form factor
Last-gen mobile hardware, Very limited upgradeability, Jaw-dropping price
The Surface Studio is a beautiful, innovative product which digital artists will relish, however its standout features are novelties for average users. If you don't plan on putting pen to virtual paper, rival all-in-one desktops offer comparable style, pe...
The Surface Studio's huge high-res screen makes it perfect for artists and graphic designers, but a steep pricetag means it's firmly for professionals only...
If I were allowed to run through a PC World in a Supermarket Sweep style scenario where I was allowed to grab anything I wanted without paying, the Surface Studio would be one of the first items in my trolley. It's brilliant and I want one, even if it's n...
