[/B] I finally had an opportunity to spend about 30 minutes with Microsoft Surface Book - 256GB/i5/8GB/dGPU version. Yes, the one with NVIDIA GeForce GPU (see images below for details)! Initially, I am going to try to focus on what the other reviewers have not covered well. I will update this review with more details as time permits. Weight It feels light and comfortable to hold when folded like a book. The grip is nice and not slippery at all. It will not readily slip out of your hands when folded and held from the hinge side. Weight Distribution It feels steady in laptop mode. You won't flip it over by just writing with a pen. You have to push harder on the screen to lift the keyboard base. The detached clipboard (screen) is thin, very light and almost feels like holding a clipboard. With an i5/i7 CPU, that's an amazing feat. Keyboard Keyboard is great but not as awesome as my ThinkPad X1 Carbon keyboard. It gets close though. Display Display is bright, sharp and well lit. With Windows 10 scaling, it is very readable at 13.5" size. The touchscreen is great. No issue there. Hinge The hinge is firm and built solid. But keep in mind that you can't open the display all the way flat because of the hinge design. It will stop about halfway past upright (my guess is about 45 degrees or 135 degrees from closed position when facing from front). You can however detach and flip it and then close it with screen facing up. Also, if you want to write on the screen in laptop mode, you will need to hold the screen with one hand for stability and comfort. You could do simple diagrams without holding the screen though.
