Not my first time buying a surface product and wont be the last. Perfect for a person who primarily needs email, internet, music and media organization. I also do light picture editing from raw format and this handles that very well.
I bought this for my wife to replace her older, bulky, HP laptop. It was a few years old and replacement was due. She picked this one out at a retail store and we found it on Amazon for a reduced price. She LOVES it!! So light, fast, and cute because its her favorite color. The palm rests have a cloth feeling but they are made of some plastic stuff thats easily cleaned, the screen looks great, and the keyboard feels right... partly due to the palm rests allowing a person to rest palms on them while typing. It has a fast hard drive, its quiet and light. I really dont have negatives to say about it except that it only has a couple of USB 3 ports. Thats OK... I bought a tiny USB 3 hub and were all good now. Definitely recommend this device though its not cheap.
Amazing product, the materials are great. Feels that it is a premium quality. The battery may disappoint you because in tech specs you can see that it will work 14.5 hours. As for me I couldnt get from it more than 8 hours. It may heat if you will play games, then you need some additional cooling. Also the screen ratio is 2x3 that is great for work. But for movies it may be not as wide as you would like. Touch screen is great, very responsible. To keyboard and touch pad there is no complaints.
I contemplated this for quite awhile considering Dells, Asus, Airbooks and Surface. Really happy with the purchase. I travel on business and was very tired of company issued laptops. Once we changed to gmail from exchange I no longer needed to be on a corporate domain so went the bring your own device route and everything has worked great. I did have to change to windows 10 from the 10s as have many others but this is a one way change that microsoft provides. The quality is great and so far no issues though less than a half of a year of use. Noteworthy is the vast improvement in microsoft support. I needed help moving an office suite license to work on this surface and had great support in that. Its fast, light, vivid and runs the things I need (office, gmail, google docs, netflix, prime video). I am not a developer or gamer so didnt need anything other than the base model. The value at around 700 on sale is fair. Get a wireless mouse and a high capacity flash for storage and youre good to go. ** update after about 8 months. I had a temporary issue with "phantom touch". The touch screen detects a false touch. While this occurs it is difficult to control the surface. You have to disable the touch screen device while the phantom touch keeps moving the cursor. Not sure what started it or why it ended . Not enough of a problem to change the 5 star as it was a issue that off and on plagued me for a couple of days. It may have been a driver issue but its a real mystery problem. Microsoft should release a diagnostic tool to address this.
UPDATE: So, Im about two weeks in now and have had a bit of time to run a few photoshoots into my Lightroom catalog to get an idea of what this laptop can handle and Im a bit less than ecstatic. Im not knocking a star off because Adobe recommends 12gb of ram to run Lightroom smoothly, so its no fault to Microsoft that I started to have some slow-downs when I got my catalog up around 1,000 images with synced settings, 1:1 previews, and adjustments gradients and brushes on many files. Ive got my cache set to 90gb and it just tends to really chug when I need to do more than basic adjustments. Outside of heavy lightroom use and sluggishness, the laptop absolutely flies with just about anything else. I really dont have a complaint to share. Its been a dream. This laptop is fantastic. I bought the i5 256/8gb model with the gray/gold coloring. First thing that amazes is the weight. Just over two pounds makes this thing feel so incredible to carry around. I almost feel like its a large phone sometimes. The design is sleek and minimalist. The speakers are loud and full and rich. The battery life is is superb. I may have a warped view on that because of the terrible battery on my old laptop, but I seem to notice 7-8 hours battery life depending on the usage. I bought this for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop use, but havent had much time to put it through a lot of work so I will update when I know just how well it performs there. The only minor dislike is that the hinge is a little wobbly. For being touchscreen, it seems like it should have a stiffer hinge, but its quite bouncy.
I have had no problems with this device and I like almost everything about it. It is light and fast. The keyboard is comfy. the main reason I didnt give it 5 stars is that Microsoft insists on the proprietary power cord. there is no way to use a portable battery charger. it is all or none, It makes no sense. At least they could supply a usb proprietary cable for external battery pack use. Fortunately this is not a big problem for me but for some it could be a deal breaker. If you had to go more than a day away from a standard outlet you would be SOL. UPDATE 4/2019 I found a power cord aftermarket that solve the problem. I lowered the star rating because the camera is now malfunctioning and that is something I used a lot. after 9 mmonths the camera should work.
I am an IT Manager who oversees 7 different locations, and 160 employees. We are a Microsoft shop, running Azure, Office 365, and SharePoint. We used to be Dell, with regards to hardware. These devices are fast, reliable, light weight, and as durable as any other tablet style device you will find. The battery life is incredible. I have users on them 8 solid hours, never an issue. Yes, they are higher price, but you get what you pay for. I do have a 3 years accidental on all devices. Ive only had a single issue in 3 years with them. A user left theirs on the roof of their car and it slide off and damaged the screen, obviously not fault of the device. I personally run a Surface Pro i7 with 512 Memory, and I love it.

Install Flash Player This computer randomly shuts off, and then some days doesnt even want to turn on. I keep getting the windows icon and then it shuts down and then turns back on and I cant log in. I have only used this computer 4 times! It should not be doing this or having this kind of issue! Update 4/19/19 Had to return this brand new computer, because days later it still wasnt turning on! Not sure the crap Microsoft is trying to sell, but this is the most expensive paperweight I have ever gotten! I am very unhappy with this!
Very nice piece of hardware. I few minor complaints: Not nuts about how the charge cable interfaces with the laptop.. not as good as the maglock system but macs use but better than the typical connector. It is short on ports. Display Port, USB3 and a headphone jack... and thats it. I wish for a built card reader when I forget to bring my USB card reader. Aside from those complaints, its great. Great keyboard, great track pad and HOLYSHITAWESOME SCREEN. Looks great and 3:2 aspect ratio is so great for actual productivity. Great battery life and highly portable size and weight. Tight integration between OS and hardware shows.. everthing just works.
This is a great Windows laptop. I wish it had come with a little documentation (especially for how to take advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10 Pro), but Microsoft support was able to take care of that for me. It feels and performs great. I had ordered a Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 with an i7 processor, and that got too hot to comfortably use in my lap on the sofa. The Surface laptop is perfect for me.
