I've been using premium (i.e. Apple) laptops for years and now find that there are a number of manufacturers that can really put together a nice piece. The screen and portability are terrific, as are the array of apps out of Google Play Store - though note that not all of which are optimized for a 12.3" screen (including the Best Buy App, weird). I really like that it is lightning fast and ridiculously portable - we're using it for an iPad replacement. And it works very well for reading, watching, browsing, emailing and app using. I can't decide if I think that its pricey though. An iPad would cost as much or more - while an iPad would be of better build quality, it has a smaller screen and no-keyboard. After going through a couple of iPads I really have no use for them anymore. Very portable laptops/2-in-1's are the way to go. I bought a $550 HP Windows laptop for my son recently - that also has really strong build quality and is more powerful as its Windows 10. Seems like he can do more for about the same price point and has an HDMI output. So I think that in the end the $499 sale price that I got this Samsung for could be cheaper but I'm very much enjoying it and honestly the overall investment is still minimal and in the ballpark of a keyboardless iPad

I previously purchased the Plus version of this and sold it and bought the Pro. This was a good choice, the Intel chip seems to not get bogged down with multiple apps open. I have no regrets on this purchase. No lag, no issues with android apps, great screen, good keyboard. The hinge is solid and the touchscreen is very good. The pen is lacking a button, but otherwise is great as expected. I would say that anyone looking for a tablet/computer combination, this is a great option for 1/3 the price of a windows machine. Battery is getting me 8 hours of continuous use. Dual side charging port is great. The speaker is terrible, tinny and vibrates at volume. Disappointment at $500
