Questions & Answers

In case I spend 1000 plus on this, how long will this product last? If I'm going to spend that much money, I need to know how long it will last. ?

This is a worthwhile investment. Tablet is one of my favorite things. It has been seven years now since I first got the surface pro 3. The computer is still working great, but because it is an older model, it cannot handle all the school work I have to do on it. As of now, I have the standard Surface Pro 3 specifications The computer features a 128gig hard drive, an i5 processor and 4GB It is a lot of money (and it still is to purchase a good computer in general) to drop on a computer, so you would want it to be reliable. When you purchase it, make sure you get the protection plan or extended warranty that comes with it. I mean it. Despite the fact that I purchased my tablet on the day I received it, I have not had a single issue with Due to the fact that I was already out on a lot of money at that time, I figured it would be an "oh well" kind of situation since I didn't get the plan. Haha, if I really am going to lose my tablet, then I better hope that it happens during the manufacturer's warranty period. This is not smart! Do not do this! I really think it's important to get a protection plan here! Due to the fact that I did not get a protection plan, I purchased a screen protector and a sturdy shockproof case for my smartphone. Should you buy the tablet, I would recommend getting all of those things together at the same time. Getting all of them together was what enabled me to fully use my tablet. I bought the screen and the tablet separately, but I only started using it after I had them all. As you might imagine, I was a bit wary when it came out, there was about 1500 dollars in it when it first came out, I dropped it like a moron, then I was out of luck. My only replacement was the keyboard that was shipped with the system. It was so worn out and unresponsive that I had to replace it, as well as the charger. It was here that I found those two items, which I had been looking for, and since I had been cautious with my tablet from day one, it was like new again once I replaced the keyboard and block. Nevertheless, I am going to repeat myself again. If the warranty extension or protection is offered, be sure to purchase it. The case and screen may have been in pristine condition (once I got them, I never took them out of their cases except to clean them, and even then I just replaced the screen protector whenever necessary), but that doesn't mean there won't be hardware issues. So I got extremely lucky. With the way I took care of my computer and how well it lasted with good care, I am excited to upgrade to the surface pro 7 with maximum specs to make sure the computer continues to hold up for at least another 7 years. This is a bit lengthy but I do hope it helps! Sorry that it was so long!

I assume you're referring to the keyboard when you say type cover?

In fact, yes.

Do you get the surface pen with it?

There is no such thing.

When it comes to noise, what does the i7 fan sound like?

There is very little noise from the fan. The device has turned on just a couple times for me so far. These times were when I was charging the battery and using multiple programs simultaneously while doing heavy CAD work. Almost impossible to hear the fan from across a kitchen table, I would say. Or, to put it another way, at around 25% volume, I could not hear it over a YouTube video.

Selected User Reviews For Microsoft Surface Pro 7 – 12.3" Touch-Screen - 10th Gen Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD (Latest Model) – Matte Black with Black Type Cover, Model: QWV-00007

Here are the Pros, Cons, and Oks of The pros are The following USB ports are available The C word is finally here! In my past experience using a Surface Pro, I have never encountered this Through the use of a USB drive You can do so much more with this device than you could with a computer in the past
4/5

Chargers that plug into a C port are 10x cheaper than USB chargers) and even Ethernet adapter connections. The time has come, Overall, I think this is a great machine. I have no flex issues, the frame feels sturdy, and I feel that I can throw this in a bag and not worry about it. There's a lot of light in it. The material is a bit heavier than that of an iPad, but sufficiently heavy that you won't be worried about it bending. A major upgrade in the microphone set up is found on the Pro. A Skype call from my parents sounded crisp and clear with the TV on in an indoor environment. I like the mic setup in the video, even though the web video is what it is. In my opinion, Cortana does a decent job of listening to you. Even translating simple questions from English into Spanish, Cortana does a better job than Alexa or Google Assistant for me because I'm learning Spanish. I also appreciated the fact that questions about directions, weather, and so forth were accurate. Displayed in an excellent manner. In addition to a bright screen, it offers exceptional saturation and color balance, as well as ambient light sensing for use in low light conditions. settings, you can have it adjust when the sun goes down where you are, or you can alter it to fit your needs for a specific time. As far as the kickstand goes, Microsoft nailed it I can reach a number of angles using this, and it is even very steady when I place it The following are features of the microSD reader (for upgrading memory)
• This feature seems to be a must if you plan on editing videos on this software. Solid State Drive (SSD) on a tablet is one of the best things on the market today. The SSD is the better choice for anyone with a relatively small memory expansion. Its faster, cooler, and more secure. • Charging is fast on this device. From 0 to 50% took around 45 minutes. A half-hour. The charging cable that came with the phone was used to charge it. Use a test kit that is optimized for online use instead of an offline one Brand - a tablet with a lot of power. On the inside there is a processor from Ice Lake. This makes it possible to use multiple transistors at the same time, resulting in lower power consumption An approach to tasking that does not rely on delegation Here's the problem. With around 10 different apps running at the same time (Madden, Netflix, Live Maps, Grand Theft Auto and so on), the tablet behaved flawlessly and largely the benefits of this chip will be appreciated in two years' time after you pay for it. • The Wi-Fi feature is enabled by the processor This tablet will be required to support Wi-Fi 6. Within a year, this technology will have been at least up to date, even if it is still a new area. The result will be higher upload and download speeds. There is a speaker right next to my face which shoots out sound directly. I was pleased to find that the sound quality on Spotify was respectable. In rock and country, I got a very balanced sound, and I also got a great deal of Most listeners will find the music quite enjoyable. Although not on the iPad level, it is still good enough to make the list.
• I am able to recognize the three Having a second screen is helpful for people who want to read, take notes, and display documents while they The quality cannot be lost without sacrificing some performance. Only a small number of tablets offer this. It was a Surface I saw as being wasteless from my perspective. Those who agree and those who disagree There is a very chunky bezel on the phone. Microsoft must stay in touch with the times, you cannot ignore this The bezel on this phone is very thick, unlike its competitors I think it would be a major turn-off if the frame was cut down, or just close to it. (Not to mention that Microsoft's Surface Pro X includes a bezel that is significantly smaller. (Maybe this one would work? - The bezel issue makes the device look 2 years older than it really is due to the size of the screen. • The design of the last year's model and this year's is nearly the same. Plug the USB into a power source and remove There will be no difference between a C connector and a USB connector. It is an outdated design since Microsoft spent all their time and money on the internals and just didn't care about the redesign. • The battery lasts a little longer than expected. I get about 8 hours of power each day. Having access to the Internet is having Wi-Fi The Wi-Fi is always on, I browse the Internet, I watch YouTube every day, and I watch a few hours of Netflix (and other Microsoft is far from the truth. It can last a whole day if you control your power and display, but it is not as good as Microsoft claims. Do not leave it outside in the sun. The brightness of that display is too bright because of the strong sun glare. There is a separate fee for the Surface Pen and the keyboard. It is only the tablet that I have tested, so I have no experience with this. • Even though the USB port is plugged into a computer I find USB C to be a great thing to have, since we are already running on The entire world exists in one place. In addition to lacking Thunderbolt 3 (quick file transfer), I wish Microsoft put as much effort into the outside design as it did into the actual hardware.
• I could play Overwatch on it without an issue, but I had no luck playing Call of Duty. Unlike most gaming laptops, this isn't for deep gaming, and Overwatch got the battery down pretty quickly. The bottom line

If you're going to invest in this, you should at least invest in a Unfortunately, the keyboard and pen are not included in the Pro package, so it's disappointing to not be able to fully-use your computer. From my experience, it's pretty difficult to play music without a keyboard. The Logitech Bluetooth keyboard and mouse that I used were not compatible with the Surface Pro, so I could not utilize those on the surface. Additionally, we live in an age where laptops, tablets, and smartphones are trying to achieve the goal of being bezel-free There are fewer. It is tough for me to tell them apart due to the fact that I have the previous model on hand. In 2018, the bezels on this device were the height of innovation, which made it feel like it belongs to the 2017 generation. As well as the design, I am annoyed that Microsoft didn't at least try to improve it. In any event, if you can take care of the design (and battery) issues of the Surface, you'll acknowledge that Microsoft placed all their focus on the hardware. It's amazing how fast, reliable, and durable these tablets are with the new core processor. I found it to be one of the best tablets I've used for over two It's this simplicity that makes Surface Pros so enticing to me As big as a tablet, but the capabilities of a PC. As a PC user, this performs as if I had a laptop sitting on my lap, a feature that an iPad cannot offer. The computer is a monster that fits in a tablet, so if you can deal with the generic bezel look, and pay a little extra for the keyboard, you're getting a beast. As a whole With an old design but a lot of power, it offers a wide range of features for those on the go who desire more than just a generic tablet. Thanks for taking the time to read and I hope I was of I am an honest reviewer, with love.

With a $0
3/5

01 budget, this is the worst thing I've ever seen. The sensor on the camera is a 99. The Surface 7 was truly exciting to me with its 10nm i7 processor, ram, and better wireless networking. I waited for both the 5th and 6th iterations and waited for the 7. The truth is that the new Surface model is an outdated, big, expensive disappointment. . . Not only is the screen identical to the previous model, but HDR and HDR+ are still a fantasy. 4k quality apps are not supported. Is that true? With the cutting edge technology of 2016, Microsoft gives us the cutting edge tech of 2019 for only $1500. Thanks so much! Also, the built-in SSD is incredibly slow, the new LPDDR4x RAM is no faster than LPDDR3, and the new USB 2. 0 port is only marginally faster than USB 2. 0 The system can't charge the device using the USB-C port, even the most powerful, fastest chargers that I have, including the one that came with the tablet, can't do it. In addition, since the DP port is no long there, a standard USB port is now available If you want to connect an external monitor, you will need a C to HDMI converter. That will incur additional costs. In addition, there isn't much in the way of positive changes, like Intel's new WiFi6 chipset, which isn't nearly enough to justify the price premium over the Surface 6. Besides, it freezes frequently and drains the battery fast. Despite their importance, these issues should not be ignored 1) Inexcusable, horrible battery life! Even at low brightness, with everything except the Wi-Fi turned off I am only able to get more than five hours of work out of it, AFTER updating the firmware. **2) Both cameras seem to be sucking in well A lit environment, in a low light environment They're simply not usable in low light. 2) The fan noise is simply unbearable! In addition to that, the device is always on because it gets extremely hot quickly, the processor throttles the speed and the tablet becomes very It is impossible to prevent the processor from overheating when you use Microsoft Word. Photoshop or any other application that is power hungry will overheat the processor even with a fan on. My heart goes out to you. I am As a result, it's not an upgrade, since an upgrade implies an improvement over the previous model, and the Surface Pro 7 lacks any improvement over its predecessor. However, I am not saying Microsoft has a nefarious agenda but, one might even say that they intentionally undermined this Surface Pro if they want to sell more of the next one, the one with actual improvements and will last for longer.

The product described here is not what it appears to be
3/5

Do not purchase! It is extremely misleading to list this product as available from this seller and therefore, I do not recommend it. The listing says that a type cover is included with it. It clearly says NEW. Neither a type cover nor an original packaging was provided, and the unit appears to be refurbished. It did not come in the manufacturer's box, nor was shrink wrapped to protect the screen. I was given an unmarked box, and the surface pro was placed in a flimsy sleeve without even a plastic film covering You might be better off looking.

The computer freezes randomly
3/5

Due to randomly freezing issue with my unit, I asked Amazon to refund my money and return the surface pro 7. Even after resetting the unit, the problem occurs. I have troubleshot the issue with Microsoft tech support. My experience was a bit disappointing considering that this is my first Surface device and I had to deal with this issue considering I paid to 60 dollars for shipping from the U. S. All in all, I would recommend the Surface to anyone considering it. From there, it is on This is not something we would like to see UPDATED
It was my intention to give the surface pro 7 a chance, so I did not return it to amazon. I was hoping a software update would The touchpad freezes occasionally even though the keyboard is still working and the operating system is responding. Just to be clear, it occurs only with the touchpad, not the keyboard. I have a 2 year warranty from microsoft on this machine, if freezing still occurs within the first year, I will send it for repair

Update 2 I suspect an update or firmware upgrade has fixed my trackpad issue for the past 6 months. Updates from Microsoft were just installed, so if I encounter the issue again, I will proceed with updating.
