I carry this as a second screen while traveling for work. It does most things well, but nothing fantastically. The LTE connectivity is a must have for me when traveling and the fact that I can run standard Windows programs was a huge driver to move from an Android tablet to a Surface. Again, this won't be sufficient to function as a primary device for most power users, but it is a great tool for email, web surfing, light office productivity and the like. In terms of the device itself, the screen is of better than average quality, but a far cry from my buddy's Surface Pro. The battery life is great, but the device does take quite a long time to recharge when depleted. The processor is fast enough for most tasks I ask of the system, including light gaming, and the 128GB of storage can be augmented with a flash card, so storage hasn't been a drawback. Again, I wouldn't recommend this as a primary device for business users, but it is a great compromise as a tablet replacement and a second device.Read full review

This is certainly NOT a desktop replacement, and not really a laptop replacement, it jsut does not have the power for that. But for doing single or dual tasks on the go, this works just fine. I have the Surface 3 (NON PRO, NON LTE) 2GB memory 64GB drive version. I use it as a field technician to allow me to program routers, switches, RAD's, etc... I also use it to get my work orders signed (digitally), and I used to use it for pictures till the camera started failing.

Fantastic Surface 3, I was going to purchase a Surface Go and couldn't stand the small screen with the icons so small. The Go replaced the Surface 3 of which everything else is a Pro version. For everyday usage for email and surfing the web the Surface 3 is perfect; even though now it is a few years old it still works fine. NOTE: I added the Docking Station and Pen; which makes it complete.

Bought two and they lasted until just past the 30 day return period, both had the blue screen of death, If you buy one you should definitely get the extra protection coverage,
