So, basically I love and hate relationship for me and my Surface, which will lead to that I sell it and get a Macbook as soon as the new ones are out.
Have the SP4 with i5 and 8gb RAM
What i LOVE: The Hardware, the hardware, and the hardware. Everything about this machine speaks of quality, love my typecover.
What i HATE: Windows, windows, and WINDOWS!!!! It's so god damn stupidly designed that it makes me sick. Before this i had a 3 years old asus pc that cost like $200, somehow using this new pc does not feel like the $1850 i had to shit out for this stupid machine (YEP i have to pay that much for the machine with the type cover in Sweden...). Windows 10 is laggy like hell, and programs are rather stupid to use.
I am no power user, I just want an easy to use pc that is logical to use and makes it feel like i live in the year of 2016. Now i have not tried Mac, so i might get disappointed with that one too, but I love my iPhone and software in that one, so I feel it's worth a try. I mean I chose to pay this much because i wanted that premium experience. Same with iPhone, I willingly pay more to get that premium feeling (tried two Androids just to see/feel if the grass was greener on the other side, was very disappointed with both, and sadly with Android too.)
I almost never use it as a tablet, windows is just so god damn stupid in that mode, trying to select files is extremely hard with a finger, and the same goes for the keyboard that does not pop up in pc mode, and i do dislike tablet mode strongly, and having to switch to it. And the list just goes on and on and on. But this is what i think and it's enough at that. Just sad for MS that they lost a user, because if this would have been right I would have tried their phones too, now I will not go back for years, decades, maybe never. But their own fault really.
Who knows, maybe I'll end up buying a Chromebook in the end
Oh, and I should mention that i actually managed to scratch it a little on the side, so could not return it during the 30 day window, lol, good luck for me, it's a bitch really
Sad that Microsoft did not manage to do a better job at this, especially windows that they have been working on forever but never feels new or modern, just stupid to use.
