The best mobile productivity device I've ever used
Performance on the Surface Pro 3 is excellent. For all general productivity, the core i5 used here is very fast, and because the storage is all ssd, the system is snappy and responsive; it's definitely comparable to the better ultrabooks on the market, and never feels sluggish or slow.
Too Expensive
Advice, go to Amazon and look there, you'll find better offers on it for a much cheaper price. Even with the shipping charges to get it you aren't close to that offered place- Nothing
- Price is too high...I bought mine for a lot less on Amazon
- It came brand new and saved me a lot of money
Good for everyday use.
I work in computer design and have found that although the touch screen helps give a hands on touch to each work the computer itself confronts problems when rendering a 3D video, made on 3D Max. I would suggest investing in the 7i instead of 5i....- Touch Screen
- Overheats with heavier programs

I am being rather slow to get to grips with it. I know it will be fabulous but being an 80 year old who has very little time to myself being a full time carer it is taking me more time.
Microsoft Surface Pro (2017)
Microsoft's dream of merging the laptop with the tablet is realising bit by bit. The Surface Pro is a device that screams confidently that the dream has already come true. Should we pay heed though- A touchscreen display par excellence
- Crisp audio
- Magical accessories that complete the Surface Pro
- Lukewarm performance
- Cumbersome to handle at times
- Those magical accessories are expensive
Microsoft Surface Pro 5 (i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB, SSD, Win 10 Tablet) - Excellent review
The Surface PRO on a fundamental hardware level is fairly sound. It meets the needs of your average user, but may not appeal to people who need a high-performance machine. If you do casual website editing, blogging, small bursts of gaming, or browsing the internet, you should be OK.- HD Display, Stylus, Windows Legacy Support, Audio and Video Codex, CONS
Overpriced for what it is, but a great machine
I chose the Surface Pro because I needed a completely silent computer. Nothing else on Earth would've persuaded me to pay this much money for this very average spec, which isn't even a laptop as you have to buy all the expensive extras to turn it into one!
Great device with major glitch
Screen freezes and flickers! Makes it impossible to use during the fault.
Surface Complete - 45 Day limit
* I would like to first note that have put this review under the seller experience; however, that option is not available, since the "seller" is Microsoft/Amazon. I have purchased more than 15 Surface devices and have yet to use any warranties. These are very solid devices (5-star).
Great computer, handwriting recognition needs improvement
I purchased an extra power supply, docking station, display port to 4K, and pen. My only issue has been when writing. Stray marks causes pauses in recognition. It happens if you use your finger or the pen. The only solution is to exit the program and renter.
