Urghh the thing is, I do need a "work" laptop that can occasionally play games. The job I work in as a good amount of downtime where there is not much to do, specially in the weekend where we are allowed to play games (and other things) assuming our tasks are done. Currently I carry my Asus gaming laptop with an i7 + 2070 but it's not ideal to carry it to work as it weighs 7 pounds and has no USB-C charging. So something like the Surface Book is what I would want cause it's GPU is really good even if it's not RTX. But it feels like this is going to be similar to the Surface Book 1 where it came with a meh i7 dual core and 965M at the top end where as the Surface Book 2 came with an i7 quad core and 1060 at the mid-top end which actually was a killer setup at the time of it's release. Compared to Surface Book 2, it's competitors generally came with i7 quad core + MX150 or Vega 8 graphics and even if you get the normal laptop model instead of the 2 in 1 like the XPS, that would have came with a 1050.
So while still very expensive, it would have given you some pretty killer specs and 10-13 hours of battery life when not gaming. So I was pretty hyped but it feels like the Surface Book 4 is the one that is gonna be fap worthy like the Surface book 2 was.
