What Buyers Say
Microsoft Surface Pro 8 13" 2021, Core i5-1135G7, 8GB, 256GB, Platinum
The Surface Pro 8 receives mixed reviews. While some users praise its performance as a complete PC in tablet form and a worthy upgrade, many verified buyers report severe issues like defective batteries that won't charge, overheating, and units arriving refurbished or with sticky residue. A recurring design complaint is the placement of ports and volume controls on opposite short ends, which blocks ports in portrait mode and causes accidental volume presses.

- Fast charging
- Sleek finish
- Good upgrade from older models
Cons
- Defective battery not charging
- Overheating out of box
- Ports blocked in portrait mode
- Accidental volume button presses
- Refurbished units sold as new
