There is nothing better, nothing more beautiful, nothing simpler.
But a notebook can also be a tablet.
I have 12 current laptops and tablets at home and this thing is dreaming them all away. It also crowns the very good Surface series from Microsoft (I have a few Surface tablets).
If you don't want to spend quite so much money, you should take a look at the other Surface devices.

Two months into the warranty, the Surface Book I bought for my daughter had a wobbly and much too puny ON/OFF switch that stopped working. If you google it, you find out that this is a common problem. So it's a design flaw.
Microsoft charged a flat rate of Fr. 638 for the repair. This is an outrageous rip-off for the repair of an ON/OFF switch.
The replacement device I received, however, has some serious hardware problems that my device did not have: the camera no longer takes sharp photos, the trackpad repeatedly does not respond, and when a beamer is connected, the display of the notebook flickers. So Microsoft just sent me junk at this rip-off price that they didn't test.
It's like a car manufacturer designing an unstable door handle and then, when it breaks, asking for the entire vehicle to be replaced for 6,000 francs and then delivering a car in which the lights, windscreen wipers and heating don't work.
