Microsoft Surface Pro 7+ Tablet 12.3 Inch PixelSense Touchscreen Display, Intel Core i5-1135G7 CPU, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Wi-Fi + Bluetooth, Windows 10 Home, Platinum 1XK-00001 (Renewed)

Came in perfect condition
So I went back and forth on this a few times, I was worried about some of the other reviewers with issues, but for me this surface doesn’t look like it was even used prior to showing up on my doorstep, it’s in perfect condition.Powered right up, upgraded to windows 11, and has been working great. I recommend an anti-glare (matte finish) screen protector to control fingerprints and give a nice feeling writing surface if you use the pen.Also a big reason to pick a 7+ over just a 7 is this is a later gen processor so big improvements there, also the SSD is easily expandable, I’ll be able to take this surface from 126G to 1TB storage for less than $100 makes this an easy choice.If I have any issues in the future I’ll update the review, overall super happy purchase.

Condition ok, not good. Dead screen pixels
Overall I really like the computer. It’s fast and compact and it starts up quickly. It was refurbished and being sold in ”good” condition. I assumed some scratches on the outside of it like the back or whatever, and it has some of those. But that’s fine, no big deal. I assumed it might even have some minor chips or scratches in the glass screen around the edges, and there were, but again no big deal. What I was not expecting was multiple dead patches of pixels on the screen. I certainly wouldn’t call that “good” condition when little scattered parts of the screen don’t work. It’s condition is “ok” at best. So I’m more than a little disappointed. And the charger that was sent with it must have also been refurbished too, but very poorly. When plugged in, it makes an incredibly loud humming sound that can be heard across the room, and that can be felt in your hand if you pick it up. So careful about what your getting, because their definition of “good” is just barely passable. Wishing I spent the extra money to just buy a new one.

Don’t buy refurbished
Purchased a refurbished option for budget, this particular tablet because I wanted a drawing tablet that would accept photoshop programs. There was no problem downloading my photoshop but the tablet has a mid-screen invisible line that does not pick up drawings. The midline remains blank and there is a jarring jump from top to bottom of it (and usually to left or right) when you try to draw across the center of the screen, making it pretty much unusable for that purpose. At first I thought it was the screen protector, then the digital pen, but after changing all of those it’s obviously the tablet that is is defective. Definitely will never buy refurbished products again.
