The Microsoft Surface Book is a beautiful device, that’s got a few innovative features. The build quality on the product seems excellent; the materials exude quality throughout and it just feels premium in every way. Everything simply feels solid and durable. The keyboard provides great user-feedback and the screen is top-notch too.





Microsoft Surface Book - Clipboard Detached





We were fortunate enough to attend Microsoft’s Windows 10 Devices event in New York yesterday, at which the company unveiled a new line-up of products, including the innovative Surface Book, the thinner and lighter Surface Pro 4, a re-vamped Band fitness tracker and smartwatch, and a trio of Lumia-branded smartphones, the 950, 950 XL, and 550.Microsoft’s Panos Panay handled the bulk of the presentations, and presented the new Surface and Lumia devices, though other execs participated as well, and showed off things like Project X-Ray for Hololens and the new Band. CEO Satya Nadella closed the show and outlined Microsoft’s vision for future products, before opening up a number of demo areas where we were able to get more up-close-and-personal with everything that was unveiled.We’ve got a ton of coverage up of all of the initial announcements if you’d like more detail on each individual product. We cover the Surface Book here , the Surface Pro 4 here (and also have a comparison to the iPad Pro posted), the Lumia announcement here , and the Band . While out at the event, however, we snapped a ton of photos and recorded some video we thought you’d like to see as well.The unique hinge mechanism also allows the tablet / clipboard to be removed from the base, and provides additional stability when the machine is used in clamshell mode, by extending outward, effectively making the base wider than the top and shifting the center of gravity. The base is also home to additional batteries and a discrete NVIDIA GeForce GPU
