According to our laptop expert
The Microsoft Surface Book 2 - 15" - i7 - 16GB - 256GB is a laptop and tablet rolled into one and lets you edit videos or create complex 3D models. The keyboard contains a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 video cards which makes rendering videos a breeze. If you need less graphical power, you can detach the screen and use the Surface Book 2 as a tablet. The screen features an 8th generation i7 processor, so you'll always have access to sufficient computing power that make large digital drawings. Use the separately available Surface Dial on the 3200x1200 screen to zoom in and edit even the smallest details.
Note: the Microsoft Surface Pen isn't included.

Design
Both my macbook and my iPad were due for retirement (although the latter was actually more in the state pension), but in the Surface Book I found 1 replacement for both devices. It is fast, reliable and very pleasant to use. This is the perfect solution for my work as an illustrator and animator. While animating I draw directly on the screen with the stylus, if I want to assemble the whole I continue working on the laptop. Unclipping is very easy and it is a robust system, no fragile intention where your laptop can no longer be put together after 4 times. You have to buy the stylus separately (I personally think it is a disadvantage), but it works perfectly. The screen is also super bright, can zoom in to the smallest details. I can run all my heavy graphics packages on it without any problems. As a loyal Mac user, the interface took some getting used to, but that only took a while. As far as I'm concerned, a worthy competitor for the macbook and iPad, with the great advantage that I now have everything at hand in 1 device, and that I can run my programs such as Photoshop, etc. on a tablet. I'm very happy with it!

Bought this to replace my 2012 macbook, very satisfied so far.
Detaching the screen feels very solid. Build quality is very good. Sound from the GPU is only audible at high performance and to be fair, it is also really high performance.
Very nice keyboard! Audio not tinny like on my old macbook. The lack of a more common video connection (VGA, DVI, HDMI) is disturbing but no different from other comparable laptops. Displayport is present and you could also connect a second monitor via USB-C. Little to complain about.
