Our test device features the Ice Lake CPU Intel Core i7-1065G7 with integrated Intel Iris Plus Graphics G7. While we did notice some minor backlight bleeding around the edges of the panel (particularly near the top edge), they are only noticeable in very dark scenes and thus barely an issue. Thankfully, this feature can be disabled via the settings, whereas the adaptive contrast can only be deactivated via the Intel graphics driver. The screen's brightness seems to constantly readjust itself, even if the lighting conditions barely change. The ambient light sensor measures the ambient brightness and automatically adjusts the display's brightness accordingly. The adaptive brightness has proven to be an annoyance. The panel has a resolution of 3240x2160 pixels. 444 nits) and the good illumination has not changed (89%).
In turn, the brightness has decreased slightly (413 vs.
Most notably, the black value and contrast ratio have been further improved. Two years after the Surface Book 2, Microsoft once again relies on the same reflective LG Philips PixelSense display, although a few of its properties have been tweaked. There is no maintenance hatch on the Surface Book and a look at the bottom does not even reveal any screws, which suggests that it is nearly impossible for an average user to perform maintenance on the device. That being said, the chassis is very robust overall, the top-heavy device is never in danger of tipping over, and both the base unit and the tablet appear to be fairly resistant to twisting attempts. Since the hinge makes the back of the device fairly thick and prevents the tablet from being fully closed-off, it is a possible entry point for dirt, crumbs and dust, which is why users would be wise to use a case when transporting the Surface Book 3 inside a backpack or bag.
While the display of the convertible can only be opened to a maximum angle of around 130 degrees, the tablet unit can be removed from the base with the push of a button and reattached upside down. Since unlike on a normal laptop, the 15-inch tablet unit is significantly heavier than a simple display, the tablet unit is susceptible to teetering despite the specialized hinge. It is also noteworthy that there is still a fulcrum hinge that holds the display. 3D Printing, 5G, Accessory, AI, Alder Lake, AMD, Android, Apple, ARM, Audio, Benchmark, Biotech, Business, Camera, Cannon Lake, Cezanne (Zen 3), Charts, Chinese Tech, Chromebook, Coffee Lake, Comet Lake, Console, Convertible / 2-in-1, Cryptocurrency, Cyberlaw, Deal, Desktop, E-Mobility, Education, Exclusive, Fail, Foldable, Gadget, Galaxy Note, Galaxy S, Gamecheck, Gaming, Geforce, Google Pixel, GPU, How To, Ice Lake, Intel, Intel Evo, Internet of Things (IoT), iOS, iPad, iPad Pro, iPhone, Jasper Lake, Lakefield, Laptop, Launch, Leaks / Rumors, Linux / Unix, List, Lucienne (Zen 2), MacBook, Mini PC, Monitor, MSI, OnePlus, Opinion, Phablet, Radeon, Raptor Lake, Renoir, Review Snippet, Rocket Lake, Ryzen (Zen), Science, Security, Single-Board Computer (SBC), Smart Home, Smartphone, Smartwatch, Software, Storage, Tablet, ThinkPad, Thunderbolt, Tiger Lake, Touchscreen, Ultrabook, Virtual Reality (VR) / Augmented Reality (AR), Wearable, Wi-Fi 7, Windows, Workstation, XPS, Zen 3 (Vermeer), Zen 4
