Microsoft Surface Pro 4 12" 512GB Bundle (Open Box)

This thing is awesome! Its light and versatile and powerful. Feels really comfortable in the lap or on the counter and the screen is beautiful. Its so weird having a full fledged Windows operating system in this form factor but its also so convenient. I haven't had a decent PC in a long time and I've been stuck using my wifes awful MacBook. For the life of me I cant understand why people think macs are better/easier to use. They are terribly restrictive and not user friendly at all but I find windows 10 and windows in general to just work and this is no exception. Its easy to find files, folders, programs and downloads etc. Now with touch screen and Windows start tile format it just works so well! There are some major things I hear people complaining about consistently in the reviews and that is the battery life, keyboard touch pad and random restarts. First off I think the battery life is great. Just consider what this beast is doing. Its has an i7 processor 16GB of ram and is running windows 10 in a tablet form factor....not a laptop or desktop form factor but a TABLET. Its incredible that it doesn't die in 1 hour. I haven't even had it come close to dying. Ive been sitting here typing and surfing the net all night since I got home with the screen brightness turned up all the way and its at 72% that's 4 hours of normal use. I think that's very good. Much better than my wifes MacBook and that's a bulky full fledged laptop. The keyboard ( I got the finger print read one) is very impressive as it works flawlessly including the trac pad. I will say that don't use the finger print reader as much because surface pro itself scans your face as soon as you look at the screen and logs you in so you don't even have to touch the keyboard. Next I have never yet experienced a random restart or anything like that so I really cant or comment on that. Just make sure that when you get it you update the OS. The pen works very well also. I am a big fan the Samsung Note series of phones so and used to using a stylus but this pen is much nicer than that. Its very smooth and consistent (not that the S pen is bad but this is just much more premium and smooth feeling). You can use it for writing in pretty much anything youd type and the hadwriting recognition works very well. The only thing it could use is like a quick post it note type of program aside from onenote which I'm sure you can get on the Microsoft app store. Maybe I just got lucky with this unit but it is flawless and worth every penny coming from a MacBook and dredful apple software/hardware this is a real pleasure! Long live Windows ard their great products for the common man who is more concerned with function and ease of use than trendy logos and silver wrapping. Id recommend the surface pro 4 to anybody!
