If nothing else you may as well use it whilst you are paying it off...

This Apple argument never washes, Apple is a different system, there are many factors with regard to Apple why you pay that price, it's too high for some, but doesn't negate those factors. An intrinsic mistrust/hatred/in-congruency of thought regarding Apple doesn't make it less so. Apple have led the way but interestingly made a big mistake with the iPad Pro, something they can learn from the Surface, instead of making an OSX iPad Pro, they made an iOS version. The Surface 4 is the best device in this form factor, it offers a full OS not a Mobile OS, and the design and integration is the best so far, in fact there's an argument to make that the Surface 4 is the best current Window 10 laptop/tablet. If I had a need for one then I'd get one.
The Surface brand especially the Surface 4 is now the pinnacle of what you can currently achieve with hardware on Windows 10 platform as an integrated experience. It's easy to find Surface 4 reviews on Google so I'd advise anyone whose interested in what I've said to go check the reviews.

These are Toshiba's last consumer laptops. They are leaving consumer market and focus only corporate clients. They said they are honoring warranty.

These never really warranted their premium pricing, but at £500 for a Skylake, full HD touchscreen 2-in-1 that's a good deal.
1.32kg is pretty good for a total weight, but it's kinda heavy to use in tablet mode. My Dell Venue is 1.5kg with the keyboard attached but less than 900g when detached and I still find that kinda heavy to use as a tablet, which if we're being honest is very, very rare.

Nice to see Radius 12 back in stock.
Good price.
Good Ultrabook and screen.
Good value for spec/quality Ultrabook to have.
Hot.

Once you've tried Surface you stay with Surface nothing else matters.

I tried surface and realised it was almost Apple-esque in the value for money category, and went for a Dell Venue Pro 11 instead, at least I can upgrade twice as often and still have money in the bank..

For the price of similar spec Surface Pro 4 you could by this and have change to buy a Surface 3. Best of both worlds. I am a huge Surface fan but they outpriced rhemselves with the 4. I got one of these Radius a month back on last round of deals and its brilliant. Toahiba dont have a great rep for build quality but this thing is gorgeous. Shame they are dropping out of the market because with this machine they finally started competing with the major players

They are exceptionally well built devices but it's hard to justify the cost for a given spec level. If the same spec Surface was even just say £300 more than this I'd see the value, but it's over double the price. Plus it's lap-ability isn't great unless you go for a Surface Book.
