- It doesn't make a great laptop; the awkward kickstand-and-lightweight-keyboard setup feels unbalanced and doesn't really work on your lap, for example. The keyboard, by virtue of being a cover, is not awesome and the attached trackpad is pretty terrible. The screen is small enough that coding feels cramped.
- It doesn't make a great tablet; the aspect ratio is too tall for reading and the extra weight really does make a difference when holding it for even a few minutes.
I really like drawing with the pressure-sensitive stylus, though.
A huge plus for me that differentiates it from both laptops and iPads is the Wacom stylus, which has replaced all my (paper)notebooks at home and work.
To anyone considering to buy one I recommend going to a Microsoft store or Best Buy to try it out. Seems like a love it or hate it kinda product.
