  • Pricey
  • Base system has no discrete GPU
  • No Windows Hello software support yet
  • It gets terribly expensive
  • Fan noise under load
  • No way to buy the base standalone
  • Woefully weak port selection
  • Windows 10 S is a good idea
  • But the Store isn't good enough yet
  • Touchpad needs work
  • Some performance bugs
  • Needlessly difficult to open
  • Expensive
  • Windows 10 S
  • Budget SSD
  • Only one USB port
  • No SD card reader
  • Extremely expensive as configured
  • Tablet portion has very short battery life
  • Not exactly light at 3.6 pounds
  • No USB-C/Thunderbolt ports
  • Expensive! Gap between display and keyboard will bother some. Solo tablet battery life is short
  • Configurations with the optional Nvidia GPU and more storage get very expensive. There are some first-generation quirks
  • Including an awkward gap between the screen and base when closed
  • Awkward hinge design
  • Heavy
  • Angular shape when closed
  • No USB Type-C port
  • Doesn't have the most recent generation of CPUs or GPUs
  • Very expensive
  • Heavy for a 13-inch ultrabook convertible

  • Rather large and heavy
  • Very expensive as you add options on

  • GPU not quite desktop-VR-ready
  • Performance Base not sold separately
  • No Thunderbolt 3
  • It's also slightly thicker and heavier than last year's version
  • And retains the odd gap on the folding hinge. Expensive compared to other options. Doesn't meet minimum specs for VR gaming
  • Thick and heavy
  • Average battery life
  • Last year's processor and graphics card
  • A collection of software issues hasn't been fixed months after launch. Compromised cooling solution. The hinge doesn't fully close. Expensive for a laptop
  • Expensive for a hybrid.

  • La vitesse, les graphismes et l'autonomie améliorés tout en conservant le design réussi, le stylet Surface Pen inclus, les ports USB et le lecteur SD
  • Le poids et l'épaisseur qui ont augmenté par rapport au modèle 2015, le prix, pas prêt pour la réalité virtuelle
  • Si le design n'a quasiment pas évolué, le nouveau Surface Book s'améliore au niveau de l'autonomie et des performances...

  • Mon test touche à sa fin. Oui, et les plus observateurs d'entre vous auront sans doute remarqué que je n'ai pas du tout évoqué Windows 10. Bizarre, non ? Eh bien pas du tout en fait. J'ai effectivement préféré me focaliser sur la machine plutôt que sur...

  • Finition irréprochable, Performances (hors GPU) solides, Une potentielle alternative aux MacBook
  • Autonomie de la tablette faible, Performances graphiques légères, Mécanisme d'attache à perfectionner
  • Facturé moins cher en retirant la possibilité de détacher l'écran pour en faire une tablette, le Surface Book aurait simplement été un excellent ordinateur portable capable de rivaliser avec les MacBook d'Apple. Malheureusement, Micros...

  • Conception robuste, Machine très puissante (sauf pour les jeux), Magnifique écran, Clavier agréable à utiliser, Le design original (si on aime),
  • Prix, Des bugs irritants, Poids relativement élevé, Autonomie décevante, surtout pour la partie tablette, Connectique un peu légère
  • Microsoft Surface BookNoté par Johan Gautreau : 4.0 étoilesAlors, le Surface Book est-il vraiment l'ordinateur ultime ? Il semble bien que non, même si on est clairement sur du très haut de gamme. Les finitions sont impeccables, il y a de la puissance so...

  • Châssis de haute qualité faisant appel à un alliage de magnésium, Des performances processeur et graphiques dignes d'un ordinateur portable traditionnel, Aucun bridage des performances du CPU ou du GPU, Autonomie de 10 heures, Résolution et luminosité
  • Plus épais et lourd qu'un Ultrabook de 13 ou 14 pouces, Pas de USBC ou de HDMI, Pas de WWAN ou de RJ45, Pas de lecteur de cartes à puce ou de lecteur d'empreintes digitales, Pas de baie de stockage secondaire, Pas de TrackPoint ou de clics pour le pavé

  • Bon trackpad et excellent clavier, Écran sublime, Qualité des matériaux
  • Utilisation imprévisible et instable, Balancement de l'écran, Prix
  • Microsoft a réussi son pari avec la Surface Book. Sans être révolutionnaire, ce 2-en-1 représente surtout -- enfin -- une évolution naturelle de l'ordinateur portable. La Surface Book est à la fois le premier ordinateur portable de Microsoft, et celui q...
