The Surface Book is the very first laptop Microsoft has ever made and it promises some really cool innovations. First off, it has some 12 hours of battery life.
The Surface Book has a 8-megapixel rear-facing auto-focus camera, capable of recording 1080p HD video. It also has a 5-megapixel front-facing 1080p HD camera.
The Surface Book has two USB 3.0 ports, a full-size SD card slot and a Mini DisplayPort on the base. It also supports Wi-Fi 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0.
The laptop's dedicated Nvidia graphics processing unit (GPU) is in the base section, so only works when the two are connected. Microsoft says it used the Xbox team's expertise to optimize the GPU.
The result: The laptop is slated to be powerful enough to play the latest 3D games with ease as well handle any graphics-intensive application, such as Adobe Premiere Pro.
The Surface Book is powered by an Intel sixth-gen Core i7 or Core i5 processor. It comes with up to 1TB of solid-state storage and up to 16GB of RAM. The laptop weighs just 1.6 pounds and measures 9.1 by 12.3 by 0.51-0.9 inches (232 by 312 by 13-22.8mm).
