Run away from MSFT hardware.
Hasn't been my experience and I use one pretty exclusively at my work. Had a surface pro 4 before the surface pro 7 and that was still working when I got upgraded to the 7 (mostly for better specs as some of the programs I need got updates that needed more processing power). I work in an industrial environment too so that thing goes through some rather extreme work areas. I have also personally owned the surface Go and it still works just fine.
Also a surface go 2 (and previously 1) owner and love it. Form factor is just right. If there are recommendations for other things of the same build quality but faster with better battery life I'm all ears. Don't want to be gimped by an iOS tablet. Never had a problem with the hardware.
No issue with the hardware but they need to change to a better OS.
Isn't that something you can just install yourself? I don't own a surface, not sure how locked down it is and how "PC-like" it is in terms of architecture.
it was a bit of a joke but honestly I keep hoping MS will just not see the value in the os and convert completely to office and other software and their cloud offerings and such. unfortunately it looks like they want to make os a cloud service.
