There is still some way to go to catch Macbook Air, but I am happy Microsoft is reviving with this little competitive product. Overall I like it and want to keep it along with my Macbook Air. But there are a few ideas that I would like to share with Microsoft to make it better. First, the battery life is substandard. It is claimed to have 9 hours, but it typically last 5-6 hours for daily use. I think it can do better by utilizing unused spaces such as kickstand or keyboard to add additional power. They should also consider solar energy to supplement. Second, the keyboard should use bluetooth and in a detached state all the time except that it acts as cover when not in use. I personally want to use it as a tablet with an external keyboard (like iPad Pro), not the ability to switch back and forth. As a laptop, this cannot compete with Macbook as it is now and probably not in the future given its size restriction.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Somehow in all of my researching before I made the purchase, I didn't notice that surfaces only have ONE USB port. It's not a huge deal at all but if I want a mouse plugged in, I have to disconnect it if I want to print, then reconnect it when I'm done. A small inconvenience. Beyond that, installing any Linux distro is a bit of a pain. The UEFI setup on this is very plain and lacks a lot of options and info. If you install Linux, odds are that your distro of choice will not recognize the surface keyboard trackpad (unless it works for newer models of the keyboard). So far the only one I know works is Ubuntu. There is a package that you have to install for it to recognize the trackpad. The little binged flap takes getting used to. You can't really use it on your lap (at least not comfortably). Enough of the bad! It is a very fast Computer due to the SSD and CPU. It's got plenty of guts to do what I need a computer to do. I love using it for note taking. For those who care about display, it has a beautiful display. High resolution and high ppi.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Anytime you can use a full operating system on a tablet, you have a great product. Add the keyboard and it's an excellent product. The screen is not just good, but amazing. That's the good. The ugly is the camera and the battery life. You'll get five to six hours TOP with normal use at work or at home. Understand I'm comparing the battery life to Apple products which, plain and simple, have unbelievable battery life. The camera, however; is another subject. It is the worst camera on a tablet I have every seen, and cameras on tablet are normally pretty awful. Why would you care about a camera on a tablet anyway? Well, because of the amazing Microsoft Onenote application. If you don't know this built in application on Windows, get to know it because it's amazing to use on a Surface. And one of the great features it has is the ability to take a picture (of a document), bring it into the application automatically, and then mark it up using the stylus. Sounds great right? Not with a Surface Pro 3. The camera is so bad that you can't even take a picture of a document sitting on the table right in front of you which, in turn renders this great feature unusable. Apparently, the Surface 3 and Surface Pro 4 don't have this problem. Yes, I said Surface 3. All that said, I use it at work every day and I love it... except the camera... and the battery.Vollständige Rezension lesen

I bought this as a laptop replacement, obviously aiming for a significant weight savings. Also, I liked the apparent capabilities of the touchscreen and included pen. However, I found that few programs allow the use of the pen at all (OneNote is pretty much it). The battery life is nowhere near the advertised 9 hours, even with the recommended settings in place. The device does work great otherwise, and is hardly noticeable in my backpack, a positive not only for my back but also to make the fact I have a valuable electronic device in there. At the end of the day, none of the other tablet PC's come close to being as well-developed as the Surface.
Great laptop. Wish it had a much longer battery life and I have to get the touchscreen fixed, but that's fine. Everything else is great quality and fully functional.
