Microsoft Surface Pro 2-in-1 Laptop/Tablet (2024), Windows 11 Copilot+ PC, 13" Touchscreen Display, Snapdragon X Plus (10 Core), 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage, Sapphire

Il est un appareil génial.

This is a P.O.S.!!! Buyer beware!!! This is a total rip off by Microsoft. The surface that you get while from Microsoft doesn't have anything you need. It comes un-updated, and then when you do get it fully updated the built in keyboard no longer works - I did ALL the fixes and even tried completely wiping the computer again and trying it all over. Same result. Which forces you to buy a keyboard for an extra $400. Also don't bother with trying to get a stylus slim pen 2. If you do, there is NO WAY TO CHARGE IT on this machine without buying an ADDITIONAL charger because THE MICROSOFT SLIM PEN 2 DOESN'T EVEN COME WITH A CHARGER!!!!!!!!! What an absolute JOKE! Microsoft I was trying to stay with PC software but this does it - I'm going Apple all the way. Forget Microsoft. Apple may make you buy accessories too, but at least their items COME WITH THE DANG CHARGER TO EVEN LET THEM WORK!! Do NOT waste your money.

Sleek and powerful. I chose for retirement and it is powerful enough to use for business should I do consulting!

Was worried about compatibility as some reviewers had some negative things to say about the way the new Surface Pros are configured with the ARM processor. I guess I don't use the same apps and programs as these folks as mine is butter smooth for everything I do. My family has IPads and MacBooks I would take a Surface Pro (my 2nd, first one I bought 12 + years ago) any day of the week. They always have printer connection problems and other little issues that I just don't have. You really need a keyboard, though, so some extra cost. Also ,the price has gone up about 25% the past 4 months but that's probably the same across the board due to the memory bottleneck.

I feel like a fool, I bought this Surface Pro on whim as I needed a new computer. I saw the ads on Amazon and I love AI to make my life easier so I was instantly sold. I didn't realize that the keyboard and pen were sold separately as the photos, videos on the Amazon listing are misleading as they all show the attached keyboard. I had to purchase the keyboard and pen separate and that was an additional $300 I wasn't planning on spending. Amazon should change the listing photo to show only the Surface Pro tablet without the keyboard and make more clear that the keyboard is separate. I have never used a Surface before so I had no idea. Here are my thoughts 24 hours into owning this computer/tablet: Pros: Sleek, elegant design. I absolutely love the blue color that I purchased, it's gorgeous. The screen resolution and colors are fantastic. I am a digital artist and it perfectly displays my artwork. The facial recognition and pin entry are so easy to set up and use, very similar to a phone so I really like that. The video camera for online meetings is very good quality and I like the blur background feature that is built in. Copilot is very useful and I can see it helping me in my business, setting reminders, giving me ideas, writing captions for social media and more. I'm a big ChatGPT fan so having copilot built in with the push of a button simplifies and makes my life easier. It's very quiet, no loud fan, doesn't over heat. The battery life is amazing, hours watching YouTube, videos with moderate to high brightness the battery is lasting all day! It's very portable and easy to carry around. And I enjoy it better than my work computer. The built in stand is nice and I was able to connect my mouse to it without issue via Bluetooth. The customization options and adding colors are super fun and my home screen looks beautiful. Cons: While I am big on AI and productivity, I still value my privacy and the fact that there isn't an optional camera from lense cover is very annoying. I bought one to add but I think it might mess with the facial recognition so yeah I guess I won't be walking around in my underwear in front of the computer lol. Second, the laptop froze yesterday when I tried to download Google Drive yesterday and I now understand that they are not compatible which by the way is a big miss. I do not want a Chromebook but I do want to use Google photos to backup my artwork and that is a defect that they are not compatible. But worse is that within less than 2 hours of having this laptop it froze and I had to manually restart, that is a huge red flag. I have been using it all day today and haven't had that issue to I'm hoping to write it off to the fact that things were still updating yesterday when this occured. I believe that for the money 512 GB of storage is absurdly low. The blue color was not available in 1 TB. My phone has more storage than that lol. The Cocreate option was an interesting selling point featuring AI art capability and on my gosh, what a joke that is. It's an add on to the paint app and the art or generates is very low quality, which I won't be using. They made a big deal out of this advertising in the video and on Microsoft's homepage but honestly it's ridiculous. I'm hoping I can use the pen for other things with the Surface. For now I'm still undecided if I will be keeping this machine. I'm going to use for a few more days and determine if it's worth the money of if I'm better off with a $400 laptop that will do everything that I need. I will update this review as I discover more pros and cons too.
