Microsoft - Surface Pro 7 - 12.3" Touch Screen - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD with Black Type Cover (Latest Model) - Matte Black

Lightweight, brilliant display, advanced Windows 10 options. This is my first Surface device. Worth the wait. Great touch screen and magnetic dock for my PEN on the LEFT side. Another magnet holds the charging plug on the right side. Uses high power, high speed C ports. The i5 is INTEL's latest CORE processor. My Surface came with an included keyboard /cover. Provides protection and a keyboard track pad. The kick stand supports the Surface Pro similar to a laptop. Yet pulls off for touch PAD mode. Wireless, Bluetooth all the standards included for easy network connectivity.

It is neat and comfy to travel with and more. 12.3in. I add screen protector and case for my convenience. You can use it for college, business, personal convinces and work.

The Surface Pro 7 was up and running in a few minutes. Great battery life. Hooked up to printer and wireless mouse. I could use more USB ports. Have not explored all of the options yet.

Beware, open box means they ship literally without a box. My surface pro came shipped in a flimsy plastic bag. The condition was supposedly "excellent" which best buy defines as "condition look brand new — with no physical flaws, scratches or scuffs — and include all original parts1 and accessories. The product will be in its original packaging or a suitable replacement box" Judge for yourself by the pics if you would define this as "excellent," "no physical flaws," and "a suitable replacement box."

I'm coming from SP4 i7 256gb background. Here is my review for SP7 i5 256gb: This IS a great product; however, just like other Surface products, it has a high defect rate. It took me 2 replacements to get a non defective product. The first one had abnormal overheating issues, second one didn't recognize the charger sometimes, but I'm glad that I finally got a fully functioning product now. This is the main reason I chose to pay $10 more and buy it from bestbuy; it'll be a painstaking replacement process if you bought it from amazon. But I will say this: Microsoft had greatly improved their quality control compared to surface pro 4. SP4 had an extremely high defect rate of dead pixels, and it took me 5 RMAs to get a non-defective panel. Light bleed was also enormously different for each product, which showed inconsistency of Microsoft's manufacturing system. However, all the SP7 units I've used, regardless of their defect in internal hardware, didn't have any dead pixel, and the light bleed was drastically improved. The finish was also greatly improved because I used to see noticeable gaps near the edges of the SP4, but I didn't see any in the 3 SP7s I've used. Apart from the defective rate and its finish, here are the pros and cons of the SP7 i5 256gb: 1. Sensitivity of the Pen SP4 had 1024 levels of PS(Pressure sensitivity), but now SP7 has 4096 levels of PS. That's 4 times better than SP4 and 2 times better than Wacom Cintiq 13HD. I clearly noticed the difference in note-taking because the lines looked so much smoother and natural than SP4. If you're into drawing and need a 2in1 tablet, this tablet is probably the best you can find. 2. 10th Gen Intel Processor If you need laptop operations, then go for SP7 not SPX. SPX has a qualcomm processor which is not suitable for PC apps. I'm extremely satisfied with the performance of this tablet. It runs visual studio, adobe Photoshop, Ableton, and other engineering apps without any throttling or performance degradation. 3. USB type C (3.2Gen) + A(3.0) port This is what I love the most about SP7. Now I can charge the SP7 with my 100w usb c cable, and also use it as a display port by connecting with a usb c to HDMI cable. Also, data transfers are extremely fast because it's using 3.2 gen port. 4. Battery Charges faster than any other gen of Surface Pros. SP7 uses 65W (SP6: 44W) charger and utilizes quick charge, which is fast enough to charge 30% battery to 90% in 45min. 5. Temperature The i5 model is fan-less, so it's expected to run into temperature issues and throttle when you run heavy apps. Luckily, I had a friend who uses SP6 i5, so I tried comparing it to my SP7. SP7 runs hotter than SP6 due to their higher clock frequency, so you will see your SP7 get warmer than SP6 even when running simple apps. However, overall Performance is noticeably better in SP7. There's not much of a difference in CPU performance (Cinebench r20 score: SP7 got 1618 and SP6 got 1510). However, difference in graphics performance (ex.gaming) is highly noticeable, and SP7 easily outperforms SP6. If you want to do some light gaming such as portal, get a small fan pointed to the back of the SP7 because it performs much better (about 30% framerate increase/ lower temp) 6. Price Microsoft is now including a type-cover in the bundle($999) instead of a surface pen. That's a bit overpriced when you need to buy the surface pen ($99) to get full experience of the product. Luckily, they're doing a sale for the pen as well, so if you're thinking about buying, you should act fast. Overall, SP7 is the best 2in1 tablet with minor issues such as temperature. So buy it fast when it's on sale.

The best purchase I made. I got this back in December 2019, since I was going back to college online. I wanted something light weight and easy to take with me to work and going places where I have downtime. I was extremely nervous even getting anything because I've had issues with laptop fans of all different brands. I had been looking at the surface pros on Microsoft's site but I wanted to check it out in person. Went to local Best Buy store and had the most amazing help from an employee. I even addressed my concerns about it being more tablet then laptop. The amazing employee answered all my questions and concerns. I've never regretted this decision ever. I've been using it for almost about a year now and it's amazing. One thing I love about this is it doesn't have a "fan". As the Best Buy employee informed me it distributes heat like our cell phones do and she was right. I highly recommend this product to anyone.

If you're looking for a laptop replacement that works as a tablet, drawing/sketching tablet, and even an iPad Pro...look no further. This works beautifully! The Microsoft Pen feels so natural. This is so much more than a tablet. The kickstand can virtually bend the entire other direction meaning you have almost an unlimited amount of different angles, unlike iPad cases that have only one or up to 4 different angles. Not to mention you need a case for an iPad to even stand up. I even ordered an iPad Pro 12.9" to test against this and was going to return whatever device I didn't like. I'm returning the iPad, no question. The Surface has all the ports I need, A HEADPHONE JACK, Micro SD card slot, magnetic charging port (which is a lot easier to deal with than having to find a tiny port and plug a small cable into), a backlit and detachable keyboard (also magnetized), and a gorgeous display panel for design. This is the best device for all-around computing I have ever used. I'm used to the top end Dell XPS 15's, iPads, Macbook Pro's, and those don't even touch what this is and can do.

I’m typically a Mac user for my personal laptop and my regular work laptop. I purchased this for my Army Reserve duties (.gov websites don’t always work on Macs). I’ve been using the surface daily for that work and it’s been mostly great. The system has plenty of space and memory for the activities I need - for the most part. I had no problem getting apps outside of the Microsoft store - such as Adobe, Tor, Chrome, etc. The Windows based system allowed for easy integration of the Office Pro software I purchased. I’ve had no problem using Teams and other stand Office products. I’ve had to download several items and use lengthy files for videos and such - all without any issues. Touch screen is reactive enough and the accompanying keyboard/cover works well. It’s seamlessly integrated with the Ergonomic Kensington keyboard and mouse I’ve purchase using the USB-A connection. Glad the surface has a memory card slot, although I’ll likely stick to my Mac for any photo editing and storage. It also has a headphone jack, which I appreciate for when it’s needed. I just purchased the surface dock for this to integrate further with a monitor, I’m sure there will be no issues because it’s a Microsoft product and they’re meant to work together. I really appreciate the mobility of this device. Cons: Not enough slots - it has one USB-C and one USB-A, wish it had at least one additional USB slot. It periodically freezes on me while opening a file or application - the fix is usually to hit the power/screen lock button and then unlock it. Very frustrating though in the middle of work - and it shouldn’t be freezing given the specs. The amount of anti-virus popups is annoying coming from a Mac - I’ll have to figure out how to stop this. The face recognition only works half the time, so I have to use a PIN to unlock. I often work on my couch with the laptop in my lap and didn’t consider the keyboard/type of laptop when I purchased this. I can make it work with the flipstand, but the keyboard is almost too flimsy for this type of work and it’s not the same as a regular laptop. The battery isn’t the best. It usually lasts me only the morning half (from about 730-noonish) before I have to plug it in (and that’s using optimized battery settings). It really should have a better, longer lasting battery. Finally, I hate the charger. It’s magnetized but an awkward shape (similar to older Macs). Please just go to a regular USB-C charger like everyone else is starting to do.
