Surface Pro

No worries, we don’t discriminate anyone here.
Surface would be better as you have a digital stylus (sold as an optional accessory) to jot and annotate notes on one note / other note taking apps. Battery life is pretty great as well - 4 to 5 hours average and light.

From a Pro 1, I am now still on my Pro 3 - lasting well albeit I had to replace its power adapter after 3 years of ownership. Both pros are still working splendidly

hi. my younger brother is going to uni end of this month to study politics. i want to buy him a laptop and tablet separately. i am looking between microsoft and apple. can you recommend me which brand, which model to get him and why?

in case anyone want to flame me why I am choosing these 2 brands please understand that I never studied well. my brother has a chance to be in uni. i want the best for him so i only am looking at these 2 brands. thanks.

Personally I would prefer surface as there are more programs support Windows as compare to Apple. Apple is more for those doing graphic design.

Just my 2 cents

If i were to replace my surface now, this would be my preferred Spec.
-Surface laptop (not book), i5, 8gb, 128/256gb storage
-Surface Pen.

Hey, my uni is starting in september and there`s rumor saying surface pro 7 will be out till OCT, should i get SP6 now or wait a little more for SP7?

Doubt my course will be using intensive programming, but for personal most likely is running lightroom, photoshop and probably cities skyline

Planning to get the cheapest surface model ( i5/8/128 ) either at CEE or IT fair. Would there be a price difference between the 2 you think?

Usually, IT shows price is the same as online. You only buy on IT shows because of the free gifts. I suggest you get it online with student price if u are able to
