The perfect hybrid, designed for comfort

I didn't need a full PC for many years. I rarely do anything interesting in my free time. I was forced to buy a Surface Pro when I needed to do tasks outside of my work computer that my Samsung tablet couldn't. I am very impressed with this car. It's the perfect hybrid - extremely light, highly portable, yet capable of doing everything that lazy developers haven't brought to the tablet universe yet. I'm completely sold. I really like this design. It was a small investment ($1,000 with a…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Good but not great

The new i5 is great.

Edit after heavy use: I took my Surface Pro to a customer factory (they make trucks) for a city water survey. I had it in a moko case. I was completely blown away by some aspects of this device. I marked up a very large PDF file, a plan of the entire building I was in, with the urban plumbing system drawn. Zoom, pan, freeze - nothing has affected the performance of this device. I used Drawboard PDF which was just right for my purposes. I shot for 6 hours without any breaks and without…

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Crumpled

Great hybrid with a few flaws

To give context I bought a Surface Pro 6 to replace my Surface Pro 4 which I traded in at my university hardware store. Display: The display on the Surface Pro 6 is significantly better than the Surface Pro 4 for one reason: the contrast ratio. Blacks are blacker and everything is just lighter. There's also an sRGB color mode for those of you who are into photo or video editing. There's also virtually no backlight blur, which was a bit of an issue on my SP4. The display also gets a bit brighter

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • confusing

The only Windows device you need!

Okay, maybe I was too excited about the title, but listen to me. I had a SurfacePro 4 and had been using it for over 2 years when I suddenly became a victim of the "Surfacegate scandal". It accidentally refused to boot one day. All my data lost. Wait. Not me. Everything important was stored on my installed SD card. Apparently, this model has a big problem. In any case, I liked the versatility of the SurfacePro4 so much that I immediately started saving for the Surface Pro 6. It's not cheap. But

Pros
  • Nice

  • No

No wonder it says surface

Hardware is a reliable manufacturer. A truly impressive piece of engineering. But not entirely helpful. First, FU Microsoft is forcing me to pay an extra $200 for a clunky, uncomfortable, low-quality keyboard. The grip seems great. if you use it yes If you rarely use it, it's just a very expensive item to carry around in your laptop bag. What has to be paid extra. Well, there the tablet is great. Correctly? Yeah right. like a tablet. The computer is not Windows. In tablet mode, many websites…

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Basically okay, but...
