Microsoft also revealed a new Surface Book with an Intel Core i7 6th generation processor and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M GPU, making it the fastest Surface Book to date. Furthermore, the new version also has a longer battery life, of up to 16 hours. Like its predecessors, the screen is detachable from the base, so you can use it like a laptop or like a tablet.

Shipments start on November 10 but be prepared to drain your bank account as pricing starts at $2,399.
Microsoft also introduced Surface Book with Performance Base, making the most powerful laptop in its class even better. The three new Surface Book models feature 6th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processors and pack more than twice the graphics processing power as the original Surface Book. Plus Surface Book with Performance Base brings 16 hours of battery life into the same sleek, versatile design people love. With Surface Book with Performance Base, engineers can spin 3-D CAD models with thousands of parts, designers and developers can render large files quickly, and gamers can play more of their favorite games. No other laptop combines similar battery life, performance and pixels in as lightweight a package.
