    The issue in the battery of Surface Book 2 was first noticed by The Verge while reviewing the device in this month. In a statement, The Verge mentioned that in its review, – “The base battery discharges too quickly with supplied charger, meaning the Nvidia card will disconnect in the middle of a long gaming session at maximum performance even if you are plugged in.”

    A power mode slider is associated with the Surface Book 2 that on set to “best performance” option, the device started consuming the battery even on being connected to power supply. However, it is also accepted by The Verge that the battery will never drain entirely on being plug in while during work.
