Versatile. I Like having two modes Tablet or Laptop I wish the keyboard would light up.

I am so happy I got it and I can do so much with it

I sold my 4790K desktop, and my XPS13, so I can buy the new surface pro 6, It freezes quite continually, and has huge white smudges all over the screen that look like smears in the LCD, they are called Mura spots. I read about them before purchasing, but didn't think it would happen to me. Obviously, It happened 3 days after the return date so now I'm stuck with it. Just buy the Dell XPS, I had it for 2 years with no problems at all; two months in, and I already need to return the Pro; what a waste of time and money. Also, try getting a hold of Microsoft's manufacturer warranty, ha, don't take the $1200 risk; it is a risk, literally! BestBuy has been pretty adamant against accepting the return 2 months in; that's fine; 13 years of loyalty and won't take back a defective product. I'll shop elsewhere for the rest of my life then, and I'll just keep my defective $1200 Pro you sold me.

I bought this item for my college freshman son and he absolutely loves it. It’s light, compact and easy to use. I’m soooo glad that we got it fir him.

The 2018 MS Surface Pro 6 (in the config I bought: Intel Core i5, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd) hosts some pretty impressive components. Does it stack up to expectations and can it be an everyday computer? The short answer is - yes. Let's start with what is responsible for the first impression: look & feel. Microsoft has put a lot of effort into making sure the Surface Pro 6 looks and feels high quality in every detail. The matte-black color is simply wonderful (both my geek- and regular- friends were complimenting it) and the whole thing feels sturdy, yet elegant. The thing on the back responsible for keeping the screen up when standing (whatever it's called) feels like it can withstand years of folding and unfolding. While the keyboard is specific and takes a while getting used to (after switching from Logitech's K380 [which I strongly recommend, btw.], at least) and the touchpad can get a bit tricky at times (too easy to "click" and performing a right-click requires you to actually click the very bottom-right corner), but after a few days I got so used to it in combination with the touchscreen I stopped considering a problem... or even annoying. Regarding performance... this was never supposed to be a gaming machine. Yes, it does host Intel's latest 8th gen Core processor, but there is no discrete graphics card. You can easily play older and less-resource-heavy games, but don't think you'll be running The Witcher 3 or anything similar on it. Again - it wasn't meant for that. However, in other aspects, it holds its ground. Comparing to my 3-year-old Dell Latitude ultrabook (Core i7, 16GB RAM) it actually feels quicker at times! I can only guess it's thanks to the newer processor. If you really need a portable workhorse - go for the i7 model with 16 GB RAM and 512GB SSD. If you're looking for something relatively light (it's not THAT light) which can serve as a laptop on-the-go, you can easily settle for this model. Overall.. It's both a good tablet and laptop, and should serve you well - as long as you don't expect to do hardcore gaming on it. The only thing missing in this Surface is the stylus. Microsoft's one retails for around $100, which is very pricey, but also quite useful to get the most out of the Surface, especially in business. If you can get a deal with MS's keyboard and stylus included for roughly 1k - it's a no-brainer. Get it... Like... Now!

I bought this for a super good price just before Christmas, and I'm glad I jumped at it. It is ultra portable, yet powerful enough to be used as a desktop replacement. When at home, I often have it connected to my Dell D3100 docking station that has 3 monitors connected, giving me a total of 4 screens including the Surface Pro itself, and it performs perfectly. I recently did some performance testing between this machine (i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) and a Samsung Notebook 9 Pro (i7, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) using UserBenchMark, and the Samsung was just barely faster than the Surface Pro. I was extremely surprised to find, however, that when I did a comparison using Handbrake to convert a 4K video to 1080p, the Surface Pro was actually faster due to the Samsung's processor throttling because of heat! This model of Surface Pro doesn't even have a cooling fan! The one thing I wish this had is a USB C port for charging on the road, but other than that, it has everything I need.

Bought the surface, pen and keyboard together and had good price on all. All work well. I really like the ability to hand-write notes on the screen and save them online. Fast processor, fun machine. Two minor points. It can be awkward sometimes to set up the screen and keyboard because, by design, they are loose. This is more an issue of disabusing myself of traditional laptop designs than a problem...I also wish there was an easier ‘user’ guide on the laptop for reference—the’ surface’ tile leads to a website and I personally would just like something resident on the machine to help me navigate features.

So, I'm loving it! to quote Micky Ds. The ergonomics of it is awesome and it transforms between the tablet and laptop so easily and on the fly and then back again. Which is so useful outside of the "office environment." I would recommend this to all my friends. The only thing I would do different is by a more powerful model (money withstanding).
