Quote from BrightBreakfast5353 :
My only concern with refurbs is what battery life this will have.
Worth keeping in mind: battery life was only around 6 hours brand new, with the CPU throttled quite a bit.

Quote from Vicdagod :
No hardware in a surface pro is realistically upgradeable for even moderate techies
Not really - the RAM, yes; that's soldered onto the motherboard, you won't be replacing that. Same with the processor.
But replacing the SSD, on the other hand, is trivially simple. It's designed to be user-swappable, and uses the same type as the Steam Deck. You'll spend infinitely more time installing Windows + drivers than the five or so minutes it takes to replace the physical SSD.

Quote from WooHoo2You :
Realistically you aren't going to be running any ram heavy apps on a tablet style PC nor deep multitasking. Windows 10 was shipping with 4GB for years. 8GB will be just fine if you delete any bloatware.
Most people still buying these today are doing so to use them as AIO graphics tablets - and 8GB of shared RAM is not going to be cutting it for that.
Windows 11 runs pretty terribly on 8GB, similar to how Windows 10 did on 4GB, even if you strip it to the essentials. 10 should never have been allowed to ship with only 4GB in the first place.
Anyway, you can do basic browsing and productivity stuff, but once you have more than a handful of open tabs or documents, things will grind to a halt. Multiple simultaneous apps are also generally going to be a deal breaker.
And the thing is, all of that is only going to get worse with time, not better. Anyone buying one now is going to be looking at keeping it for at least several years, and the future is not going to be bright. I've had to troubleshoot quite a few W11 laptops running 8GB for friends and definitely, and it is already not pretty.

If only SSDs weren't so expensive now. I got a 2TB M.2 2230 for the Steam Deck for $125 during the holiday sales and then 4 weeks later, it was almost $300. I don't even want to see what the current prices are like right now.

Seems like a bad call buying a ~$200 5-year old tablet for that kinda usage.

I already have an iPad but I'm getting the Pro 7+ for some specific usage scenarios where I need Windows on tablet. However, it's more of a placeholder until Windows on ARM becomes more viable and prices drop.

"Most people?" Bold statement unless you just ran a survey or something. Especially since someone interested in a "AIO graphics tablet" isn't likely looking for a 5-6 year old CPU....and not one with a mid (at best) touch screen...let alone buying them used on ebay. But sure thing, "most people" Wink

And no, things will not "gRiNd tO A HaLt" with a few tabs open. And how many documents and productivity stuff can you manage at a single time with a touch screen, no keyboard, and no mouse input?

This tablet got rave reviews at launch. Did the ram expire or something? Did Windows 10 just double the memory usage? LOL....

FWIW, I think you just don't know how to close background tasks. You don't need 64GB of ram on a TABLET if you actually close stuff when you are done using them. You aren't auditing last year's taxes in excel, browsing 7 tabs in Chrome, playing a game, looking at a restaurant menu's PDF, watching Netflex, and photoshopping all at the same time on a 12" screen. You just aren't. "Most people" know that..... even my Nana Wink

Have (had) one just like that with upgraded SSD. Was doing fine for about 3 years. Then it fell and screen is fully broke, no way to change realistically. For a sec I was thinking to get this and just move my SSD to it, but then maybe it's time and opportunity to upgrade to something that will be nice to use for next 5-7 years like macbook

Thanks. That's why I'm hesitant on Windows tablets. Windows on ARM is showing promise so hopefully that continues to mature.

Huh? This is a "eBay Refurbished," condition "Good - Refurbished" "Professionally inspected, cleaned and refurbished by a vetted seller"...."This unit has been professionally refurbished. It has been inspected, cleaned, repaired, and is in good condition. It will show noticeable signs of use including moderate scratching and/or scuffs/dings/dents"....you get the idea.

Seriously, if you are going to nitpick between Refurbished and Used, at least make sure you get it right when the deal's link has the world "Refurbished" used at least 20 times. 🙄

*I am not claiming or attesting to how well these are refurbed, but that wasn't your point so please don't move the goalpost now.

Nonsense aside, this seems like a decent deal with keyboard for $20 more:

This is not refurbished, it's used. Nothing has been fixed or replaced. Do you buy used cars or refurbished cars? These are wiped down and resold. Words have meaning, not nitpicking just facts. Ebay reburbished has absolutely no meaning at all. For all you know the previous owner had herpes and now it's yours. 🤮
