What Buyers Say

Microsoft Surface Pro 12" EP2-33676 Platinum 2025

88 out of 100 medium confidence 20 reviews

The Microsoft Surface Pro (12-inch, 2025) is widely praised for its sleek design, portability, and strong performance for everyday tasks. Users appreciate the bright touchscreen, smooth multitasking with 16GB RAM, and solid battery life that lasts a full workday. However, a verified reviewer experienced severe overheating and only 4 hours of battery life, leading to a return, though they later repurchased due to unmatched portability and design. Some note that accessories like the keyboard and pen are sold separately, raising the total cost.

Pros
  • Sleek and lightweight design
  • Powerful performance for daily tasks
  • Bright and responsive touchscreen
  • Long battery life (full workday)
  • Excellent portability
Cons
  • Accessories (keyboard, pen) sold separately
  • Some units experience extreme overheating
  • Battery life may be only 4 hours for some users
  • Limited availability of cases for new model
  • Color may appear more blue than purple

20 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

The single verified review is extremely negative, describing the tablet as a "brick without wifi" because it is locked to AT&T and the user cannot get it unlocked. The reviewer lost money after the return window closed, despite receiving a $30 apology credit. Q&A answers provide technical specs but do not address the carrier lock issue.

Pros
  • S Pen with Math Solver and Handwriting Assist
  • High resolution 2304x1440 display
  • 10.9 inch screen size
  • 128 GB storage capacity
  • Exynos 1580 processor
Cons
  • Locked to AT&T network
  • Cannot be unlocked by user
  • No WiFi functionality without carrier
  • Return window expired before issue resolved
  • Poor customer support from multiple parties
