Microsoft has released fresh updates for its Surface Book 3, the latest from the lineup released only a few months back (available over at the MS Store starting from $1,599.99). The Windows maker’s September 2020 firmware updates for the Surface Book 3 focus on stability and system improvements.
Before this batch of firmware updates, Microsoft had also released a set of updates back in May, but this time it’s much more extensive carrying updates from Intel, NVIDIA, and Dolby. Note that the firmware updates can’t be uninstalled or reverted to an earlier version.
