Microsoft - Surface Pro - 12.3" Touch Screen - Intel Core M3 - 4GB Memory - 128GB SSD - With Keyboard - Platinum

Previous reviewers are understandably miffed when they thought they were getting a great deal on an i5 or higher Surface Pro. I'd be too. However, I'm reviewing this for what it actually is and that it's the lowest model in the Surface Pro line that comes with the cheaper keyboard. Granted, it's not a powerhouse but it wasn't meant to be. Not everyone needs an i5 or above. For straight emails and browsing along with the pen support, this a fantastic deal at the 600 price I paid. Local BB also PM'd a burgundy pen for 73 so all in all, I think I got a pretty good deal for both. I'm actually typing this review on the Surface. Some may argue that you can get a nice Chromebook with touch support for far cheaper and they are right, you can. However even with touch support, they do not support pen support with ANY amount of pressure levelswhich was something I was looking for. In fact, the new pen supports over 4k pressure levels. Highly recommend this combo deal if you can get it.

I originally bought a Surface Go for $399 which did not come with a keyboard, so that was an additional $99. I then saw that this Surface Pro (m3) was on sale for $599 (including keyboard), which was only $100 more than what I paid for the Go. So I exchanged the Go for this one and I could not be any happier. I only use it for doing classwork on Google Docs and One Note, but I can already see the speed difference between the two. This surface Pro loads pages much faster, despite only having an m3 processor. The upgrade from a 10" to a 12" screen was definitely a plus too. If you're contemplating between getting a Go or this one, I'd suggest you get this one. It's completely worth the extra $100.

I got the Surface Pro 6 M3 and it's just great. I don't think there is a better deal out there for $599. I just got a 128gb sd memory card to store files, so I can save space on the internal disk. It's fast for the everyday use, perfect size, lightweight... I love it! Don't let the specs fool you! If you are not going to use a lot of open apps at the same time, store a lot of stuff on the internal disk or high demand memory/processor/disk apps you don't need the most expensive models. 100% recommended!

I was looking to replace a failing laptop and tablet. The Surface looked like a good compromise between the two. Since I am not a power user, the ram and memory have proven adequate for my needs. I don't view the storage memory as a limitation as I keep my files on One Drive. Also a microSD Card can be added if local memory is needed. When Best Buy offered the Surface with the Type cover for $599 the math made sense. So far it operates faster than my 3 year old HP laptop and I don't miss my Samsung tablet.

This is my first time owning a 2 in 1 computer. I must say this computer has good build quality. I know this computer is a base model but overall when just doing normal tasks it runs fine. I'm not using very intensive software but I'm sure that it might have some issues processing that. the keyboard is very nice. Very soft and it's backlit as well but I have a small issue with the touchpad on the keyboard. When you physically press on the pad it makes a loud click. It's something small but when you're in a library with students they notice. I do think that overall this a great computer for students. I wish Microsoft would stop pricing the accessories for this computer so high.

I've only had my surface pro for 3 days and I cannot seem to get away from it! I have forgotten about my phone. I am okay with the processor that it comes with because I will only be using it for the basics, like typing up school papers and watching videos. No need for an i3 or i5. The only negative thing about about this will be the 128gb of storage. Upon downloading a few apps, I am left with just half the storage now. Other than that, best electronic I have bought so far.

I was between an IPad or this and chose this because I figured I would have tablet mode and a laptop mode where I could use excel, word, etc. First off, apps are almost nonexistent as compared to what we’re used to on our cell phones. This defeats the purpose of having this as a tablet. They don’t even have any of the banking apps. No capital one, Bank of America, etc. You have to go into the internet browser and add a shortcut. Long story short, if you want a laptop get this, if you want it because it can be a tablet go get something else. This is garbage. I’m returning mine today. I opened it last night on 12/8/18.

Got this for my wife to do post shoot processing In Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. She has only had it for a few days and can’t put it down. The pixel sense display is super accurate. Don’t be discouraged by the 4gb of ram or the M3 processor. Unless you are trying to run Photoshop and Lightroom or ten other apps at the same time, you won’t have an issue. Supper smoooth and reactive. Absolutely love it.
