how about  _SMSTSModel. 

I notice that task sequence variables have conditions 'exists, not exists, equals, not equals etc' whereas WMI queries can have eg 'like' and use '%'. It's not clear, that I can find, if task sequence variables can use '%' eg '%surface%' to cover all Surface models.

I ran wmic csproduct get name from within Win10 and got Surface 3 so I added a task sequence variable of _SMSTSModel equals "Surface 3" and it failed. I also tried _SMSTSModel equals "%Surface%" and it failed.

Also checked the BIOS and got the serial number and added a task sequence variable of _SMSTSSerialNumber equals "12345678" and it didn't like that either.

SUCCESS.....

New task:

Set Dynamic Variable
IF Make equals "Microsoft Corporation" AND Model equals "Surface 3" THEN
   SET MyModel = "Surface 3"

Update existing task:

Format and Partition Disk (Surface)
100% of reamining space on disk. NTFS file system.
Options:
    Task Sequence Variable MyModel equals "Surface 3"

Update existing task:

Format and Partition Disk (Standard)
100GB fixed size. NTFS file system.
Options:
    Task Sequence Variable MyModel notequals "Surface 3"

Starting in Configuration Manager version 1610, you can specify an asterisk (*) and question mark (?) as wild cards, where ***** matches multiple characters and ? matches a single character. For example, the string "DELL*900?" will match DELL-ABC-9001 and DELL9009.

but we're not on that version yet.

It looks like I'm at a point where I can image a Surface using simply a Microsoft USB Ethernet Adapter :)
