Quote from tito1200 :
Does edu account only require a edu email or does active enrollment need to be verified? Thanks if anybody knows.

I have (had?) an EPP account, but the discount never would work for me on this deal either. Account says "Welcome to the Samsung Save@Work Member Store. Please enjoy our special offers for you" but price is $899 all throughout checkout.

Requires proof of active enrollment, not just EDU email

You're correct; it looks like only the Galaxy Book Pro has Thunderbolt. That is a bit of a gut punch, I will admit. The rest of the specs are excellent though. Thanks for correcting me! Have a nice day.

Pro and Pro 360 both have thunderbolt
But only Pro 360 supports S Pen. Very hard to make out which model supports what with Samsung clubbing all models almost together on same page with similar names 😟

No and no. Your best bet is to use a barrel to usb-c adapter. It was posted in older threads on the last gen model.
here's the one i'm using with my Gen1:

I think the Galaxy pro 360 with 1TB, 16GB Ram, and i7 is a better deal for $380 more minus the free headphones so realistically $280 more for usb c charging, better screen,15.6 etc.

Sign into samsung account with EPP first then add the laptop to your cart, during the process of adding to cart it will prompt you to select the color to the buds pros. But looks like in the samsung function, the price is now $1274.99 that I am seeing instead of $1147

Received mine yesterday also and feel the same. Some things I noticed...
  • It feels quite heavy, I guess because it's small. I weighed it to check and it's only 2lb 9oz. The aluminum shell is cool to the touch.
  • The keyboard feels better than I expected. Very happy with that.
  • I wish they'd give 120 more pixel rows in that empty area at the bottom of the screen. It's a bit weird.
  • I'm having issues with my Bluetooth mouse freezing. Looks like it's related to the BT driver stack, probably power saving. I see similar reports for different brand laptops.
  • Will need to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro to get Bitlocker.
I opted for this case [amazon.com] and am considering this pen [amazon.com].

I bought two, and plan to return one. If somebody who lives in the San Francisco Bay Area wants it at around cost, please drop me a DM before I return it in the next 24 hours.

Quote from sr_deal :
Well you're not getting it.. try those surface pens on any WINDOWS laptop with a touchscreen and you'll see them working.

MPP evolved as improvements over the basic windows touch interface so every MPP pen will have basic functionality on any touchscreen (slightly varying degrees based on age of laptop)
No MPP/NTrig needs an active digitizer and won't work on just any Windows laptop. Anyone who follows Windows computers or Surface knows Surface pens don't just work on anything (like the Surface Laptop Go for example) so stop spreading lies about technology you don't understand.
