Basically the title. If I bought the Office Home & Business 2019, will it have the premium version or the classic version? 

This is the one I'm talking about. The first option

Microsoft 365 and Office | Word | For home | Windows

I believe that "classic" and "premium" is mostly marketing vocabulary. Your screen shot indicates that the subscription products have "premium" versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote and that Office Home & Student has "classic" versions. 

The practical difference is that the set of included Office programs is not necessarily the same. Home & Student does not include Outlook, for example. 

Another practical difference is that the subscription products will receive new features, while the perpetual licenses will get bug fixes and security updates only.

    What do you mean by "premium" and "classic"? Per that page, you get one seat license for the desktop versions of Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

    Premium refers to 365 Bus

    2019 contains only the components listed
