MicrosoftSurface Pro 8-13" Touchscreen - Intel Evo Platform Core i7-16GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Device Only - Graphite (Latest Model)

This seller is trying to pass off Surface Pro 7s as SP8s. If you research the model # & dive deep enough into the system settings you find that the labels & changeable system name are cheap attempts to defraud buyers. Being a new Surface user, I didn’t have a clue until I tried to connect my Signature keyboard. They are not compatible. After a lot of digging & a trip to a local retailer, it was obvious what had happened. When I went to leave feedback & get a return label, there were many reviews saying exactly the same thing! AMAZON should revoke this vendor! I only hope I don’t have a fight getting my money back!

The pictures are Platinum. Description is graphite. Received platinum. Invoice is for graphite. Irresponsible Amazon and seller Electroarena wasting time and money. Now I have to return this just to get the correct invoice. Which by the way won't happen because graphite isn't even available in India for this model.The product is AMAZING. I just upgraded from 2017 surface pro (5). This is a full laptop plus tablet and worth every bit they charge for it. I used the SP5 for 4 years as my only laptop and tablet and it was such an awesome journey. If you want a lightweight all in one product look no more, 100% go for this one.edit - the seller [electroarena, we love you] gave the correct invoice once i figured out how to actually contact them, sadly amazon cc wasnt very helpful there, they kept asking to return the product, which is not possible because the agent wont take back a platinum SP8 when the return order says graphite.. i have been in that pickle before with another wrong color item. i forgot how i found the link but it was somewhere in the orders page.update on the device - loving every minute with it. MS has improved so many things since SP(5). I cant afford the keyboard+ new pen 50k. so using with a foldable bluetooth keyboard i found on amazon. Old pen isnt working well on SP8 so probably will have to change the tip? or buy the new one pen alone, without the keyboard. The lines are interrupted on SP8. it is still smooth on SP (5). So i guess the old pen is not compatible may be.The windows 11 is awesome. Im using mostly as a laptop, making PPTs, editing documents, reading pdsfs, conducting large zoom meetings, editing videos, posting on YT.. everything is going smoothly. I dont play big games, so no idea. Bluestacks is smooth.Tablet feature when travelling, consuming media.Battery is solid, lasts a few days with all this going on. Charger is good, a minimal humming noise might be there, i researched, its normal.Edit after few months useReplaced pen tip, older pen is working well on sp8.Got a tomtac case, absolutely loving it. Complete laptop experience, complete tablet experience. Very smooth. MS has finally reached "there".

The Pro 8 has a number of features that meet my needs. Great graphics, the EVO platform, i5 processor and a pen (sold separately). At 13 inches it is a perfect size for almost any application. While a little low on memory, the Pro 8's use will be limited to art (CSP), photo (Affinity) photo books (Blurb) and writing. All loaded the pre-installed programs plus my additions only use 40GB. It will be my on the road replacement for my desktop digital display tablet.

Edit: It suddenly died. It didn't even reach 6 months! Only option is a replacement. And I don't trust this device anymore. I'm trapped with it. I'm not sure of its reliability...Not a deal breaker for me. But the battery life is the hindrance. If you use this for browsing or media consumption, it will have a decent battery, but not on par with the iPads. Bottom line, best Windows tablet/2-in-1 out there.

Its everything promised, its light fast and good looking. A bit expensive but worth every penny.
