Great for school and ever day life, I am a college student as well as a retired veteran. I enjoy this for class and just having it in my lap. The kickstand would be better if it had 2 settings.

this is a neat little unit. Very portable.you couldn't do anything on it you can do on any other computer. Its not windows fault but several the apps cause it to restart in freeze up.you can't stray very far from a power source.four and a half to 5 hours is absolute max.overall with the processing power storage capacity in compact design it would have been better if it came in a couple hundred dollars cheaper. No real regrets but I think later a doctors that'll get it at a cheaper price will be much happier with the unit. This is for the surface pro 128 gigabyte

I bought this mainly for my personal finances and serious studies as I can keep all my documents in it's native format. I still love my iPad, but I find my Surface Pro becoming more of a replacement for my laptop. I just might transfer more of my professional tasks to my Surface Pro. Really enjoy its flexibility.

This tablet/pc/laptop is awesome. I don't use my desktop much anymore. Runs all the programs my pc would run, picture is great, shows off the functionality of windows 8. Love the news app. The store needs more apps. only networks with wifi.

I bought this computer because I love how versatile it can be, it can go from my textbook, to my notebook, to my personal assistant. I'm a college student and I recommend this computer, If you are an art major you can use to draw your little drawings on it. And if you are going to college for a real degree like Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Engineering etc, then definitely buy this computer, it will help you a lot.

It's a great tablet/computer for travel and conferences. When working with others it's a snap to detach the keyboard (which I got in purple) and pass around the tablet to my coworkers.

I have attempted to use the tablet a few times but it is a bit intimidating. I am not a "techie", so trying these new things are a challenge. I have tried to get the first screen to be my page with the shortcuts showing, but have not managed to accomplish that yet. I eventually find it, but it can be frustrating at times. The person who showed me the tablet before purchasing it made me think it is was going to be a lot easier, but I know my abilities are limited. I will have one of my kids help me with it. (I would go to the store where I bought it but it is over an hour away and we don't get there often). Still haven't figured out the two cameras!!

It replaced our old HP laptop. Its has Bluetooth built-in so adding a Bluetooth mouse was easy to do. We bought the white keyboard cover so its great for using it in Starbucks. It runs existing windows apps so its good for school/college. Hooking it up to a large monitor was easy. Reading the book Windows 8 Tablet Plain and Simple from MS Press helped make it easy to learn. The pointing stylus is easy to lose.

For the most part I am very satisfied with this product. Once the basics are set up it is fairly easy to navigate although it would be nice if there was an icon dictionary available.

Overall this is a great tablet. Easy to set up once became familiar with Windows 8. We have loaded marketing materials and presentations and were able to create out own tiles. Love it.
