I love it! The design is flawless...speed is great... it has a nice kind of large screen but its very portable and lightweight at the same time. Touch screen is very convenient as well! Not to mention pricing is reasonable compared to the competition. Really wish it came in Ice Blue like the 12" but overall best laptop I've ever had.

This laptop is very nice looking, light weight and sleek! The cons... I wasn’t aware that this particular model was not equipped with a disk drive, a right number keypad, it’s also missing a few USB ports nor does it have the HDMI capability. These cons are pretty significant considering the fact that I’m use to my laptop having these features.

Cracked screen without cause

This product is poor quality. After owning it for a few months a hairline crack appeared going from the top of the screen to the bottom with no clear cause (no falls/drops). This must be some kind of design flaw with the glass, as I've owned MacBooks and Lenovo's for years and never had a cracked screen. I'm in contact with Microsoft about a repair but even that will take weeks and is a major inconvenience. I do not recommend this product.

Got this laptop during the black Friday sale. Price was great for such a stylish Windows based laptop. There are no major issues while using. Build quality is really good. Keyboard is just fine. Trackpad could be better and bigger (glass+force touch). Screen is awesome with great colors. So overall quality is on really good level. But after a week of usage the sleep mode started to fail. It basically couldn't wake up after some time off closed lid. Had to hard restart it 5 times in one month. Didn't want to waste my time with factory reset and Windows setup. And didn't want to think what would happen after 5 month of usage. I was MacBook user for the last 4 years and about 15 years PC user before that. Windows stability is improved a lot, but still is far from MacOS stability and simplicity. Switched back to MacBook. It's better to pay more now and have no any troubles for years, than pay less and then reinstall Windows every month. Anyway Microsoft did a great job with Surface Laptop 3. I hope in few years it will be on the same level with MacBook.
