I'm not saying it's a bad device or price and it might be perfect for some people, but personally, I wouldn't touch a 700 pound device with a cheap as chips Celeron equivalent in it. But that's just me....

There isn't a perfect OS, however Windows 10 is far from perfect. I use MacOS (formerly OSX), Windows 10 and Linux, they all p*ss me off to some extent, just Windows 10 does a much better job of p*ssing me off than the rest.

If you completely ignore all of the reasons you might need a portable machine, and you are comparing using the Surface only sat at your desk, and never moving to a desktop computer with a Wacom plugged in then sure.... your logic is sound.

Nice machine, bought a rose gold spectre x360 other day for about £200 more with bigger SSD, 8gb ram and a 6th gen i5 with 10-12hr battery life, better vfm imo.
edit - was £200

out of interest, where did you get a machine like that for £200

It's only better value if you don't need pen support. The x360 is a versatile laptop; the SP4 is a pen-enabled tablet with laptop functionality. Great machine you got there, though, at a decent price.
This is a great price including the Type Cover (m3 usually £749 + Type Cover £109). Don't forget you also get a £10 voucher for Argos purchases over £100, bringing this down to £689, a saving of £169. Heat!

Hard to compare the 2 when one is a tablet and one is an Ultrabook. On a side note, for another 200 more than your HP I got a Dell precision 5510 with a 4k screen, 6th gen i7-6820, Nvidia Quadro graphics and 16gb ram and an SSD (that's only 256 but I'll upgrade to 1tb) and 3 year nbd warranty, which I believe is even better value, but it's hard to compare them as they are all different devices (yet I can see more similarities between a 13 and 15 inch Ultrabook than an Ultrabook and tablet).

Seriously have to keep an eye on those hinges though - working for a University all the Profs wanted these for their styling so we shelled out for 20...at least 10 have had their hinges replaced under warranty.

Finally a decent price from Microsoft for Surfaces but I dont know how I feel about M3 processor... its pretty basic!

Looking at benchmarks it's about the same speed as a 35 quid Celeron. :confused:
Mind you, the Celerons at that price are surprisingly good value for money.

Yes, it is, but then again this is the budget model of the Surface. You will never get the performance of a decent workstation in this form factor anyway (even the i7-U is beaten by a mid range PC), and for light tasks it is ok.

The specs are far from mind blowing but if you look at the pros and cons this could suit some people's needs.
It's far cheaper than the i5 and i7 variants, has no fan, cooler and marginally lighter. This also includes the keyboard.
On forums I've looked at people have been very happy with this model, it's a nice middle ground from tablet to PC I would say.
