The Surface Book will be available in the UK soon

The Surface Book was one of the more exciting announcements to come out of Microsoft towards the end of last year and while it has been available in the US for a while now, it looks like the laptop/tablet hybrid is finally heading over to the UK, with pre-orders set to open up this week.

The Microsoft Surface Book features a high-resolution 13.5-inch display, a Skylake Intel Core i5 or Core i7 processor, up to 16GB of RAM, up to 512GB of SSD storage and a custom Nvidia graphics chip with performance similar to that of a GTX 950m.

The Surface Book should start shipping in the UK soon but pre-orders have already opened up, with Microsoft asking for £1299.99 for the base model with 128GB storage, a Core i5 and 8GB of RAM. On the flip side, the highest end model, which features a 512GB SSD, an Intel Core i7, 16GB of RAM and the custom Nvidia GPU costs £2249.99.

KitGuru Says: The Surface Book looks like a very capable laptop/tablet hybrid though some early buyers did run into issues. Do any of you currently use a Surface? Haver you been thinking about picking up the Surface Book?
