With comprehensive connectivity options including two USB 3.0 ports, mini DisplayPort, full-size SD card reader, and 3.5mm headphone jack, the Surface Book connects effortlessly to peripherals and external displays.

Dolby Audio-enhanced stereo speakers deliver immersive sound for video conferences and entertainment.
Operating System Benefits
Windows 10 Pro provides enterprise-grade security features, BitLocker encryption, and remote desktop capabilities that home editions lack, making it ideal for business environments. The professional operating system offers seamless integration with Microsoft 365 applications and enhanced productivity tools, though it requires more system resources than lighter alternatives.

"Excellent" Grade
Devices in this category appear like new, with very minor wear. Expect light or fine scratches on the screen that are shallow enough not to catch on a fingernail. The edge around the glass is virtually flawless, save for possible light scratching around the power port. The back plate may show light/fine scratches, including on the Apple logo, with any discoloration being minimal.
"Good" Grade
These devices are characterized by being fully tested and functional even if they have body scratches, minor paint chips, or a small hairline crack on the screen. Screens are free from dead pixels but may exhibit slight scratching from moderate use.
Refurbished Desktops, Laptops and Monitors
