Just FYI the sleep experience should be the same on the Surface Book. If you close and open it should resume immediately. If you close for two weeks and open, it willl have dozed to hibernate and should resume from hibernate in about 5 seconds to exactly where you were, with most of its battery left (hibernate uses no power).

If i have it closed for more than an hour, i need to hit the power button to wake it (opening it won't wake it up). If it's closed for less than an hour, if you hit the power button it re-sleeps the device while it's waking up. So i need to stare at a black screen for a few seconds to see what it's going to do. (the macbook is literally on by the time it's fully opened)] But even then I also have problems where the device will restart while it's hibernating or sleeping, or where it will tell me it needs to restart for an update literally minutes after I start it up. It's a minor thing, but it's one of the examples of where the Apple side of things has prioritized that stuff working more than not, and it's clearly a "checkbox to check off" on the Windows side. I never felt that it was a problem until I used a macbook. I had assumed that sleep and things like it just sucked with computers. It sucks on linux, it sucks on windows. I figured it just was doomed to suck. But when I started using a macbook every now and then, it blew me away when I could just open the lid, and have the computer there and running instantly every single time.
