Current laptop filling this role is an Acer E5-575 from 2016ish so I feel like anything will be a substantial upgrade.
It's mostly the same as Book3, with updated CPU.
Coming from a Surface Book 2, it is faster at most simple tasks. Battery life is okay, lasts about 6 hours before entering battery saving mode.
Key travel is closer to that of a MBP than my SB2.
Trackpad is large but can get in the way of typing since I rest my wrists on the laptop.
Very quiet and hardly heats up. Then again, I don't use this to game or anything.
Very good build quality.
Screen ratio is the older style 16:9, which is a step down in my view from my Surface Book 2's 3:2. I do s lot of spreadsheets. But for the price, 16:9 is fine, especially for movies.
720p webcam has decent color, functional but nothing great. Basic Zoom needs. My daughter's Acer Chromebook Plus has better webcam.
Speakers are clear, almost no depth.
