Theres always going to be a bias especially on youtube. If you get a free tablet from XP pen to review thats already biased. I think this is one of the less biased channels though. Another thing that gets left out of reviews is how is the product after half a year of use, one year, etc. Its all fine and good if it works good in a 15 minute review. Channels that get free tablets especially from wacom are definitely not going to jeopardize their relationship. Even though they are being taken advantage of since they don't even pay the person for the time and in return they get thousands of eyes on their product without paying anything.

What apps will you be using? Ipad has Procreate, and Illustrator for the Ipad should be released soon. Most design apps are not optimized for Windows tablets. When you're in tablet mode, you can't use keyboard shortcuts (well, you can, but it's not that easy). On the Ipad everything is optimized for touch. I'd get one right now if I could afford it. But for now I'm stuck with a Windows 2 in 1, which is good if you don't want to spend money on both a tablet and a laptop, but if I had the money, I'd get the Ipad.

For everyone considering the Surfacebook, keep in mind the hinge can be temperamental. I own the Surfacebook 2, and it has a tendency to accidentally disconnect the base from the screen for half a sec, crashing everything using the GPU. It also doesn’t always wanna come off, even though Microsoft says they’ve mostly fixed that with the 3, people are still having the problem sometimes. Lastly, remember that the hinge is a very complex moving part that will wear down over time. It WILL start having occasional disconnects as the connectors slowly wear down and loosen. I’ve stopped using my Surfacebook almost completely because of these problems (I already had an ipad when i got it, and have now also gotten a MacBook), and while I’m sure Microsoft has improved these issues, moving and disconnecting parts will always be prone to wear and tear over time.

The problem with Microsoft and the Surface devices is that Microsoft's vision for the stylus is as a writing utencil, or a utility that you can use together with your Microsoft Office products. Microsoft isn't very interested in the stylus as a drawing utencil. So, they're spending no effort resolving things like jitter. It's also why they went with an inferior technology (N-Trig) even though the earliest Surface devices had Wacom technology. N-Trig is good enough for making notes One Note or whatever, but initially it wasn't even compatible with Photoshop when Microsoft first introduced it with the Surface Pro. It's really unfortunate. The Surface Book looks really, nice Microsoft has no comittment to art/artists with these devices.

it all depends on what you will use this device for and how you want to use it. Personally i would choose the Suface Book all day even if that iPad could be a dream device. Affinity on iPad is great, but the Desktop version does so much more. Photoshop on iPad it's gre...nah Photoshop on iPad sucks. Procreate is great but you could use a lot of professional apps on Windows and most of them are free (like Krita). Like you said Autocad on iPad is not even an option , and if you want to do video editing you could use lumafusion but you know that premiere is better (and consider just one thing , if you need to do some complex projects you would need a bigger external monitor . iPad OS does not adapt to 16:9 screens and even if it supports mouse and keyboard is not a seamless and pleasing experience like a real pc).iPad is the perfect device if you already have a PC and a Laptop , you have money to spend and you really need a specific software. Maybe you can buy a decent laptop or a desktop and spend 400 $ for the basic iPad to have the best of both worlds

Surface book 3 is a device I simply LOVE to use. Not the best in any single category, but pretty darn good at many many things all at the same time. In fact there are hardly any touchscreen 2-in-1 and with such detachable form factor with a discreet gpu as it 15". Tried the replacement with Surface laptop Studio but it's more of a drawing laptop than tablet and laptop in 1which is my use case. Not to mention, you won't find any bigger full pc tablet with/without base for keyboard and gpu. For instance, reading and consuming graphic novels is my favourite recreational activity and Surface laptop studio doesn't serve that purpose for me as it cannot be used in portrait mode. I definitely think that they should have worked more on the 'detachable' form factor rather than just 'adaptable' one as in the SLS.

The iPad Pro and the Windows Surface are two different devices as the Surface utilizes Windows, a WIMP (Windows, Icon, Mouse, Pointer) Graphic User Interface greatly influenced by MacOS. Microsoft decided to incorporate touch into Windows, which Apple eschewed outside of iOS. All of the applications running on a Microsoft Surface device are available, as well, on a Apple Desktop or Laptop running MacOS

I disagree with the price category because price definitely had something to do with me going for the iPad Pro. I would have gone for the surface if it either was as cheap as the iPad or a better laptop competing with 2 in 1 laptops.

if youre looking to replace your laptop or computer the best option would be the surface book just because it does everything your computer does. if you already have a good computer or laptop then i would go with the ipad. at least thats my thought process. i already have a high end PC, so i dont need something else that does basically the same thing and cost almost as much as my pc. the reason i got the ipad was just for fun, something to have as a hobby.

I don't think it is as big a deal as he makes it out to be. I've never noticed it. Had a surface pro for a year. If you're doing super slow strokes you may as well enable smoothing. Doing normal speed strokes it's unnoticeable. The surface pen has more friction and an better tip as well.

When you first get the surface book 3 the pen experience is bad. however. you HAVE TO go to the surface app and then change the settings for the pen to a thinner line. it makes the quality so much better. the difference is night and day. Again you have to adjust the settings for the pen in the surface app for surface book 3.

@@ioozx2 some of the shortcut keys don't work... Action Center Notification Icon, clock, and other things disappear completely from the taskbar at the worse possible time...(usually located on the right side of the taskbar) The tablet alone only gets me only 45 minutes and with the keyboard connected i only get three hours before needing a charge...😠👎 Mouse Pad misses some finger gestures or responds late. I got a really weird message after installing my window word 2010 (cuz i like that one) that none of Surface Technical Support understands... I think these problems are more of a Windows 10 issue than a surface book 3 issue. That said... I freaking love it! I love having the power of a desktop in huge 15in tablet. The form factor is the main reason I bought the SB3 for college and work. I have become a paperless student with MS OneNote I have been eyeballing other 2 in 1s but the screen is not detachable like that blue Samsung that Floss just reviewed. So I guess I am keeping the SB3.

As a graphics professional, for me it’s the iPad Pro all day long. The iPad has come so far in the graphics creation area due mainly to Procreate and Afinity Design and Photo that I sold both of my Macbook Pros and now use my two iPad Pros for all my graphic work and when I just want to use a PC, I use my HP Spectre. IMO, you simply cant beat the iPad for Graphic creation for several reasons and people who draw will know exactly what I mean. I will always have a PC be it a MacBook or a good Windows box, but for me and my graphic design job, it’s either my 11” or 12.9” iPad Pro all day long.

The day you say the drawing experience is the same or better on a surface pro is the day i jump ship. I am sick of how limiting the ipad operating system is. If Apple would just make their version of the Surface with a full operating system that can also run procreate then I would stick with it. Tired of having to think to move a file from one app to another, or try to do a poster in procreate that is only 7 layers...and can we talk about the ability to color calibrate please!

I hate to say it but my Surface-book collects dust. There's no justifiable reason to use it for me in my routine since it is basically just a portable, lesser version of my PC with my cintiq. The ipad pro however is a constant carry for me since many of the features are only found there. The smart lines in Procreate alone make it the winner in my routine (Shaves a LOT of time off my inking process). The Surface Book has come a long way, but for me, at the end of the day... it's just a smaller touch screen laptop running windows. I've had those for years.

agree with all the points, except design so apple did the same thing (providing keyboard + mouse support to a standalone touch enabled device) but late so you gave it a point ? I mean yes surface book has not changed much but then again Apple did the same thing that microsoft had already achieved there's no winner because both devices do not bring anything new to the table, yes iPad +magic keyboard may look different compared to standalone iPad but it is not bringing anything new which surface does not have

I’d say the same thing: if you only need drawing then go with the ipad. And by drawing I would also add drawing without the need to look at references on a different display. For all the rest the Surface Book is a better machine. I do miss that big 15 inches display and my two external touch monitors sometimes.

@@gabbyvelasquez3767 which means further reducing an already small drawing area... to see only a single reference image. It's a nightmare. You need a second display to directly look at references in a suitable way. Apple have the possibility to use an external monitor with the usb c iPads but all it did with it is the ability to (badly) mirror the content of what's shown on your iPad. On the Surface Book with its 15" I could spare some space to show references using an amazing utility called Pureref while maintaining a generous amount of drawing area if I weren't on the desk. Apple really needs to work on the multitasking side of its OS.

Presumably for better lines you could plug a mid range graphics tablet into the Surface it would still be mobile and cost less that the stylus. You don't get the cintique experience but you have all the other benefits. You would probably only need it for the line work. Shame they cant fix that jitter though. We need a Samsung windows tablet for that.
