Was wondering if I should wait for surface book 3 instead of surface pro 7? But surface pro 7 really quite good in terms of size and performance I guess. Quite worried about the battery issues tho...

Battery is typical of SP at around 6-7 hours. Bigger issue is that battery is non replaceable so after 2 years you need a new SP. Windows update would affect battery too, might even half the battery and cause throttling. Some report battery drain from idling too.

SB3 not out yet, and SB2 is not that good as even MacBook Pro 16 offer better value. SB2 has better battery at around 9 hours. Remember to get Microsoft complete cause SB and SP repair are costly.
