(I work for Microsoft) I purchased the i5, 256 GB one for my wife last week.
First impressions, screen is really bright. The Alcantara cover is very different to what I thought it would be (less material-like than I thought). Much lighter and smaller when closed to my original Surface Book (mind you this is the fastest Surface Book you can buy). Curves are really nice on the hands and must less sharp than its Surface Book cousin. I found my Surface Book lacking as dev-box (as I find with a lot of laptops), and UI performance really sucked if you connected an external monitor that wasn’t the same DPI – I suspect this thing would suffer from the same thing.

If so, thoughts? My old reliable dell laptop took its last breath today. :( Cheers
