Microsoft - Surface Pro 8 – 13” Touch Screen – Intel Core i5 – 8GB Memory – 128GB SSD – Device Only - Platinum

I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS LITTLE MACHINE AS SOON AS I SAW IT. ITS BEAUTIFUL, FEELS PREMIUM, BUT ITS VERY HEAVY. THE PRICE TAG IS HIGH FOR WHAT YOU ARE GETTING AND THE KEYBOARD AND PEN IS AN ADDITIONAL COST CONSIDERING IT IS A NEED FOR FULL FUNCTIONALITY! BATTERY LIFE IS OKAY NOT GREAT! IT CLAIMS TO HAVE ABOUT 11 HOURS OF BATTERY LIFE AND WITH NORMAL USE IM GETTING ROUGHLY ABOUT 5-6 AT BEST! THE SCREEN IS BRIGHT AND RESPONSIVE. OVERALL, THE MACHINE IS GREAT AND PERFECT FOR TRAVEL! I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT!

Great laptop/tablet for productivity and school. With the surface keyboard, mouse, and pen it is easy to take notes during class. Or cast your instructors video lessons to a nearby tv or screen and you have the whole notebook size surface screen to take notes on. I was gonna give a lower rating for the ssd space but that can be easily upgraded for under 100$ a tb. Also there are manny aftermarket cases and are definitely worth it. I like mine because it has a stand, hand strap, and shoulder strap. Along with the drop protection. Oh and they do sell screen protectors as well.

Great Tablet computer hybrid. I can use it in the kitchen and for casual computing tasks. Works will with other Microsoft accessories

I good overall shopping experience. I purchased a surface pro 8 refurbished. The surface was in excellent condition. But there was a problem this unit was a display model. And had all the store login password stuff stored on it. So i ended up needing to take it back and get a new image put on it. The guys that did the work were really fast and got me setup to put in my own stuff. So overall a great shopping experience.

As a digital illustrator I decided to give this new Surface Pro a try after hearing Microsoft improved the pen input on this device. I went with the lower spec configuration, although now I'm wishing I could have gotten a mid or higher spec model instead. However this entry level tablet has performed fantastically well since i grabbed it about a month ago. The slim pen 2 is wonderful to use now, it's not and it doesn't feel Wacom quality yet, but it is a joy to use for digital drawing and illustration. The pen feels different, similar to the differences amongst media in traditional arts. This is completely subjective and personal matter; but I'd say that in my hands Wacom pens give me the feeling of a pencil on paper, while the new Slim Pen 2 feels like handling professional markers in the line of Copic. It's definitely different but in a good way, great job Microsoft! I'm very happy to add this powerful tablet to my work flow. Tried it with all major professional suits and apps on the market, Adobe Ps, Ai, Sketchbook Pro, Krita, Rebelle, Sai, and more. The Slim Pen 2 performed like a champ in all of them. The Surface Pro 8 with the Slim Pen 2 surpassed my expectations since it's a full fledged computer that runs circles around the iPad Pro and its limitations, no more compromises for professional artists or students. 100% recommended for digital arts and note taking.

This has worked great and much better than my lenovo tablet for school and medical clinicals. Great portability and easy to use especially with the case i bought for it. Definitely buy the keyboard too

Great product, perfect for school. Would recommend 10/10

The surface is awesome. I love the size, capabilities and convenience of the tablet. I don't even know if I should call it a tablet, it's a computer in tablet form. You can literally do anything on it. Adjusting to Microsoft 11 is a different story. So I had to change where my start button is (back to the left corner where it belongs!) It's super fast, holds lots and lots of stuff. It's light enough to bring it everywhere too! I almost bought an ipad, but this has wayyyyyyyyyyyy more capabilities and it was a little bit more affordable and it's a bigger screen. I also love that I can personalize all the colors. As silly as that sounds, I like it.
