    Microsoft FJX-00001 Surface Pro (Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB)

    • I love this thing
    • think the thing make it expensive the size because it's so light but this not enough to be like this price
    • Absolutely love this thing
    • This thing is an absolute pleasure to use, and the fan-less i5 core is speedy and quiet
    • I love this thing.
    • This thing is silent all the time, and it doesn't throttle the i5U.Loving this thing so far.
    • This thing has never made a noise
    • BEST thing since sliced bread - my husband's idea and it is wonderful!
    • Only bad thing about it is the charger.
    • next best thing about the Surface Pro is the optional docking keyboard
    • This thing is amazingly versatile and fast.
    • so all things considered I highly recommend purchasing the keyboard & pen with the Surface Pro as you cannot enjoy full functionality of this device without them
    • The portability and the battery time are very important things and you can run a lot of videos and the surface will not get hot as the others
    • The one thing I won't do is disable Avast security (its not just Avast, MS' first order of telling you how to fix your machine is to disable any 3rd party security SW as they all cause issue
    • This thing is a nightmare.
    • Despite how awful this thing is, I still do love its portability, but as I will detail below, if you choose to go this route, you will have to deal with some issues
    • You CAN do some cool things with the stand that you can't do with a regular laptop, or even some 2-in-1 products
    • Love this thing
    • Suddenly things don't work as expected and I realize I accidentally turned off table mode.
    • The fans seem to not cool it fast enough, the thing gets so hot that it will freeze from time to time.
    • Some things that I can point out are really just annoyances
    • I have yet to find a single thing wrong with it besides the lack of scaling unrelated to the Surface
    • After 4 days of fighting with it, I actually turned it over to hubs - a software engineer who uses 3 windows boxes and 2 macs for work and play - even HE couldn’t wrestle the stupid thing into submission.
    • a bad thing.-The best thing about the Surface Pro is the flip-out kickstand
    • WOW, I was slightly reluctant about getting a laptop with a Core M3 processor but honestly i am surprised how powerful this thing is
    • a bad thing.-The best thing about the Surface Pro is the flip-out kickstand
    • Ark Survival Evolved and Shadow of Mordor, two graphically demanding titles and could not believe how well this thing could preform
    • The only thing I would change is that I'd like to have a surface with a data plan, which I believe comes out in May 2018.

    • only bad thing i can say about it is no USB C. 1x USB A and a display adapter which i have never used before
    • Here is a list of positives and negatives I found with this particular surface
