Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 – 13.5 Touch-Screen – Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory – 1TB Solid State Drive – Matte Black

Works good no problems. Matte black will show fingerprints easily but I dont care if you do get a different color. People complaining about the laptop being laggy need to change the power saver mode to performance the laptop auto sets it to save battery life which will make the computer slower. (This is on all Microsoft laptops now and has been for awhile) I would not recommend this for gaming thats not what its intended for its a work laptop. If you want to play games get a desktop.

I purchased this machine because I recently purchased several Native Instruments plugins for use with my application copy of Fruity Loops. My old computer was struggling to even eek out a full measure without crackling or stuttering, so it was time.

I have had this computer for about a year, using it all day every work day. In general, its technical performance has been very good (better I would say than the many MacBook Airs I owned before). It handles many large applications and browser windows being open at once.

Very good experience, recommended

Beware of the Magnetic connection power cord connection. It failed within a couple of months. Customer service was very slow to resolve my problem, I had to purchase a cord to use for the 3 months of waiting for their replacement. Incidentally the purchased power cord magnetic connections also failed. Now, several months later, my computer just went out of the one year warranty by 11days and it is on the way to my company IT people because it appears the touchscreen has failed. My first and last Microsoft laptop purchase.

When I got my daughter a used Surface Book 2, she fell in love with it. LOVED LOVED LOVED the battery life. And her artistic hand takes full advantage of the tablet mode. Sooo, I got a new Surface Book 3! WOW - I can see why she loves it. Love the inviting keyboard, the responsive BT and I adore the Surface Pen. Screen is GORGEOUS - TV never looked so good. I love the fact that I can take the tablet off and turn it around and reattach it, then still use it like a table, without using the keyboard. LOVE the battery life. This thing literally lasts all day. Im very impressed. I got the upgraded version with the larger hard drive so I could do Photoshop. Security features are effective, convenient and responsive. A very nice configuration indeed!

I cant even tell you how much I love this laptop! Ive never really been a laptop person--Im probably one of the last holdout still mostly using desktop computers. But Ive been starting to crave the convenience of a laptop, and so I was very happy to get to test this one.

Do not buy refurbished/ used laptops from Amazon. Often times they are stolen and when you need software upgraded or fixed the manufacturer will not touch the computer when they figure out its stolen. Amazon will not refund or replace the computer with one that is not stolen. So you are stuck with stolen goods that can not be repaired through the manufacturer.

This laptop is what Ive been looking for. If you are looking at a laptop like this, you should be the user that is looking for productivity with office style apps, internet usage, email, developer, etc. This screen aspect ratio is bar-none superior for those use cases, ESPECIALLY at this resolution. You can side by side to Adobe pages and get the full page on each in perfect ratio. So pleasing coming from 16x9 on my previous laptop. Im surprised at how pleasing it is to open this with one hand as well. Its just been designed with care for that use case. Premium luxury device. Having great results with battery life as well.

I have the Surface laptop 2 and when I found out they fixed all my issues I had with it in the 3... I was hyped..
