Works well as a tablet
The editors didn't like
A system this powerful should be able to drive external 4K screens without issue
The underpowered charger is a very peculiar decision and will catch people out
The array of ports and connectors is limiting...
The two-in-one design still feels awkward at times
And for some users
The detachable screen may be superfluous. The most interesting new components are only available in very expensive configurations
Expensive
No Thunderbolt 3
16GB RAM maximum
Pen is now a separate purchase
Premium notebook
Premium price
Underpowered Dock makes multi-monitor support problematic
USB-C without Thunderbolt is a mistake
Display still wobbles when you touch it
Battery can drain under heavy GPU load
No Thunderbolt 3 support
Not inexpensive
Though competitive against Apple
Only one USB-C port
Very loud GPU fan (depending on the power setting)
Power adapter not always sufficient
Surface Pen not included anymore
Considerable throttling (especially CPU) on battery

Buen rendimiento de GPU, Diseño industrial y acabado, Pantalla y compatibilidad con el Surface Pen, Versatilidad del formato 2 en 1 (para quien le resulte útil en el día a día), Teclado preciso y con buen tacto,
Ventiladores ruidosos cuando se piden "megahercios" al equipo, La alimentación no usa SB-C sino su conector propietario, El Surface Pen no está incluido y hay que comprarlo aparte
Abstract: Microsoft Surface Book 2 es el modelo de 2 en 1 del que hoy presentamos su unboxing y del próximamente tendréis su analisis detallado. Un modelo realmente espectacular que cuenta con un hardware de alto nivel aunque como es lógico el precio está acorde a...

Diseño y construcción impecables, Pantalla de gran calidad y definición, Nos permite jugar a 1080p en muy buenas condiciones, Excelente autonomía
La ausencia de soporte para Thunderbolt 3, El puerto Surface Connect 2 debería dejar paso definitivo al USBC, La capacidad de la unidad SSD de esta versión es reducida, Su precio, a pesar de todas sus virtudes, es elevado
Esta versión del convertible de Microsoft nos ha dejado un «sabor de boca» muy similar al del modelo de 13,5 pulgadas que analizamos a principios de este año. Es un equipo muy bien acabado, con un diseño cuidado y una pantalla de mucha calidad que solo se...

Diseño y construcción impecables, Pantalla de gran calidad y definición, La potencia gráfica es muy bienvenida, Uno de los mejores teclados que hemos podido probar
La ausencia de soporte Thunderbolt 3 es inexplicable, El puerto Surface Connect 2 debería dejar paso definitivo al USBC, Si el ventilador se activa, lo hace con un ruido agudo y molesto, Su precio, a pesar de todas sus virtudes, es elevado
Estamos ante un equipo impecable en casi todos los frentes, pero no exento de limitaciones. Entre las más importantes probablemente esté esa ausencia de soporte Thunderbolt 3, pero también conviene recordar que la parte de la tableta es demasiado grande y...
Abstract: Ha tardado, pero el Surface Book 2 por fin está en nuestras manos. El portátil supone la segunda generación de una buena idea planteada por Microsoft, una que hace algo más de un año ya empezó a llamar la atención de todos y que sin duda ahora se perfila...
