PRO:
-fits Surface Pro 3, Surface Pro 4, Surface Book.
-of the Microsoft chargers, this has the highest output and will charge your surface fastest.
-handy USB port for charging other devices, without using a USB port from your Surface.
-AC power cable is about 3 feet long, and detachable. It connects using a standard C7 cable. (IEC 60320 C7)
-Global compatibility: 100-240V 50/60Hz, meaning you can buy an appropriate C7 cable to fit the wall sockets in almost any country.
-Surface connector cable is about 3 feet long, and permanently connected to the main transformer housing.
-power indicator on the Surface connector itself, visible from either side.
-Magnetic retention.
CON (none really):
-reports of limited durability in the Surface-end of the cable, especially if twisted or wound poorly. Be careful with your cables.
-It's just a power adapter for a tablet or laptop, it isn't fancy in any way.

This is the very same power supply as the one that came with my laptop, which is what I wanted. I always like to have one for travel so that even if it gets left behind, I still have one. Fro that reason, it works just fine and does what it is supposed to. The only downside is that it is ridiculously expensive. Since it is proprietary, they can charge what they like for this puppy. The day a generic version comes out, you'll see this price drop like a stone.

Some confusion at the Best Buy I bought from as they didn't think my version of the surface would take the plug. It worked just fine-saved me a lot of Fed ex postage sending old unit left at job site to me. of course the cost was stiff but no alternative.

After purchasing an off market adapter that failed within 3 months, I realized that this is was a mistake. I purchased this apple adapter and am glad that you made the decision. Off market products may be inexpensive initially, but sometimes they cost you more in the long run.

Excellent choice for our Surface Pro 4 charging requirements. Hooked right up. But of course it’s specifically made for the Surface by the company who makes the Surface. Great charge time.

This is the standard Microsoft brand power adapter that works as advertised. I think the price on these is a little steep, but you can get ripped off by off-brand adapters sometimes.

Needed this as I lost my old charger. This may be superior to my pervious charger though. It's more compact and also has a usb port to charger from.

Good Charger, But Wish it Was Stronger

There are many features that I enjoy about the surface charger, My favorite, though, is that there is a USB port in the power block.
There are certain negatives, though. It is quite flimsy, and does not hold up if you use it religiously. I have had to replace this charger THREE TIMES in the short 6 months that I've had my surface. I wish there were a heavier duty option.

My Surface Pro Seems to lose charge rapidly and the charger cord recharges pretty quick. It's a little pricey but it get's the job done.

Microsoft Power Adapter Black

I had a power adapter for my Microsoft Pro. I was told by someone else. NOT Best Buy but someone else that told me that my computer was gone. I took my pro to Best Buy and he said try this adapter and see if it charge up. As soon as I plugged it in a few minutes later it was charging. He said ma'am it is only your adapter, not your Microsoft Pro. I saved myself hundred of dollars thinking i needed a new computer. It was a little pricey but it beats buying a new computer. Thank you Best Buy!!!! You rock!

Power Adapter with a Plus & a few Minus’s

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The size of this power adapter is nice as it’s not to bulky. Love the additional usb input for charging accessories. The drawbacks are that each of the cables (plug and pc input side) are a little short and annoying at times. Another minus, while the magnetic connector is nice it also picks up many miscellaneous metal shavings. While I’m in production settings I often find this blocks enough space to not produce a solid power connection. All in all I recommend.

Recently lost the power adapter that came with my Surface Pro 3 so had to purchase this. It has worked flawlessly and has allowed me to use my Surface which I'd put away for a couple of months because of my missing power adapter. The adapter length is generous and the USB port on the adapter is really convenient for charging a second device while plugged in. Very happy with this purchase!
