Microsoft Surface Pro (2017) 128GB/Intel i5 - 8GB Ram, LTE

First one was excellent, second one not so much – I bought a surface pro a few years back and it gave pretty good service. It's v handy since you can use it as a laptop or a tablet, although, there are occassions when you have to use the keyboard because some function just cannot be done without the keyboard. The camera is excellent giving clear sharp closeup pictures. The processor is also excellent, giving performance far above any other computer I've owned. I no longer use my desktop, only for printing.

Of greatest concern is the charging port: In their wisdom, Microsoft have a magnetised charging port. The magnet in the tablet being strong enough to pick up scissors nail files and pretty well all smaller steel objects. I used my First one in my workshop where I do a lot of metalwork. Placing it down anywhere in the shop resulted in it attracting small metal filings, which eventually led to it burning out the charging port.

Repairs are difficult and the repairman was reluctant to attempt as he said the screen usually breaks on disassembly. I decided to just buy another surface pro. Second one was not as good as the first, a lot slower and seemed to have a lot of bugs which I eventually ironed out.

A pretty good computer, only the magnetism being a bit of a PITA. However, next time I'll try something else, the magnetism being the reason.
