💻 Renewed Microsoft Surface Book, Core i5-6300U, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, LCK-00001 Review

I'm upgrading from Surface Pro 3. The package arrived ahead of the delivery time which is always great. Large screen size for everyday use. Overall a great notebook.

When I first got it I couldn't set it up with Cortana, it kept disconnecting. I eventually got through setup, but then the screen would often turn off as the device was still working (keyboard kept lit). The device often freezes and I have to restart it manually. The device heats up very quickly. The device also came with a surface pen.

Definitely buy this if you like having a laptop and tablet in one!? I just bought it and I love it so much, everything about it is amazing to me! The only thing that sucks about new laptops is that they don't have a floppy drive, but it's not just this laptop, it's pretty much all new laptops, so if you're still messing around with CDs you need to buy a USB drive , a hard drive that costs about $30 isn't that much! But yes, you will love this laptop!

There were issues with the screen that appeared right after boot. Bubbles of different sizes that moved across the screen and made certain areas immune. The addition of a keyboard made matters worse, but it was still common as a tablet without it. I had to return it although everything else seemed to work fine, download, install, updates went fine. Just a bad screen.

Fast delivery, great packaging! I was a bit apprehensive about buying an "upgraded" laptop, but the price was so good I had to try it. Surface Book looks brand new and works great!
