Microsoft Surface Laptop Cobalt Blue 256Gb I5 Computer

Matches my new cobalt blue Surface laptop.  Useful and fiunctional addition.

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)

As soon as I connect, the computer immediately detected the Microsoft surface mouse and keyboard. It's fast and no has delay. Does not fail even in situations of intense use such as line drawing or fast typing.

I was a little concerned about choosing the i5 quad core processor over the i7 that I had in my previous HP computer as I utilize a few adobe programs at a time. So far, I have no complaints with the overall speed, and can't really tell a difference. The screen is also smaller than my last which I was worried would be an issue but I honestly love the portability of this computer!  The Touch Bar is actually way cooler than I ever expected it to be, I think Mac has done a poor job of promoting its capability. And the integration with my iPhone is really awesome. They work together seamlessly and made setup a breeze as it sent a lot of data over to my computer. I was a little disappointed that it took longer to ship out than originally advertised especially since I chose to buy through B&H specifically because they had the earliest arrival date. I ultimately lost out on an entire day of work which cost me additional money, but considering the current climate, I understand and prefer to support local business over large chains. I've only had great experiences with B&H thus far. I just hope in the end this laptop outlasts my previous (also very expensive) laptop. Only time will tell.

The i5 is more than enough. I am no computer expert, but it does everything i want and fast

As I become familiar with these, I now own two, I look at a year old uber powerful laptop an see nothing but limitations to the laptop form factor. Microsoft nailed usability with the Surface. If you have not yet experienced 30gb M.2 buss this will open your eyes on what is in store for the future. When my wife turned it on all she could say was, WOW. Yes, there are some limitations. The port is USB-C 10gb not thunderbolt. The screen is not 4K. But I am not editing video on this tiny computer, I do that on a gaming style workstation with monster color corrected monitors. but for the other 90% of the things I do on a computer, including watching Amazon Prime in bed, this is PERFECT.

Microsoft surface pen is a great choice

I ordered a 2020 Air i5 256gb straight from Apple first. Had nothing but problems. Sent it back for a full refund. Ordered from B&H for a replacement because their shipping is much faster. I haven’t had any issues with this one. My job entails a lot of video meetings and at least 15 browser tabs and serval applications open at once. It has had no problems handling this. The only Mac I would get over this is the updated 16” Pro, but that’s about $1300 more. Solid device. I do not type of video editing or graphics work so i can’t speak to its ability to handle that. .

I am very happy with this computer. Microsoft makes transferring everything a breeze.

Excellent computer, far better than any Microsoft based computer that I have used
