Review: Died within first 5 minutes. Updated to 5 stars after replaced. - Delivery was excellent. Condition was very good. Charged the Surface to 100 percent. Allowed me to make an Outlook account and then it died. Could not get screen to come on. Have to return item. UPDATE: Seller did send out another unit and it arrived in a couple of days. The replacement unit works great and as advertised. Nice job.
Review: Four out of Five stars - got lucky again buying used. - I'll start with this: I had read a lot of reviews of companies selling 'refurbished' Microsoft Surface devices, but just basically reboxing them without actually doing anything. In some cases, shipping dead devices. I had previously purchased a refurbished Surface 3, and had good lock with that. So, I would have bought from that company, but they didn't have any more of those, so I had to do a lot more seller review checks on desertcart before I pulled the trigger on this purchase. So it bought this one from some company named "DealFisher" selling through desertcart as their warehouse / shipper. I wanted just another Surface 3 (Atom based) as a Windows based beside tablet. My wife wanted one, so I gave her my current one, figuring I didn't really need it and would go back to using my old iPad. That is when I got hit with exactly why I went away from the dam* iPad: Websites that crash the browser. Everyone is using things the poor browser in iOS can't cope with and it crashes them. So they have to reload the page over and over. And it is happening more and more frequently. This does not happen in Windows - thus back to a Surface 3. So the price on this was even cheaper than on a Surface 3. At $300, it was a steal. I didn't even know they made a Core i3 version of the 3 Pro. This is it. The 4 gigs of memory you should really have, but only 64 gigs of storage space. For bedside browsing, this is more than enough. When I unboxed it, the battery was totally dead. I had to charge it for 15 minutes before it would start. But, start it did. And it immediately went into the 'welcome/configuration' screens of a fresh OS install. So it had been wiped and an OS reinstalled. But.. I think it was Windows 8. However I wasn't given much time to figure that out, because once I stepped through the install screens, it immediately pulled down updates, decided it was ready to upgrade to Windows 10 and did so. I didn't mind that because Win 10 is actually an okay tablet OS if you can live with the privacy invasion. (Hint, never use your real name or information if you have concerns. Or if you own an official license, then install Windows 8.1 ) **note: I did revert an older Surface Pro down to Windows 8.1 because it also works an a tablet OS and I feel a little more in control of it when I am going to put important things in there like my company work files and such. Thus began the 24 hours of updates. There were so many updates this thing had to apply. Very often when you finish installing updates, you should make it check again to see if there are updates to the updates. Yes, this really happens. In my case there were many updates. Quite a few required you to reboot so they could finish installing. Then you start again doing the next set of updates. That is life of a fresh install. But, that has nothing to do with the item in question. This Surface 3 Pro is a bit slower than the Core i5 version. If you can afford it, get one of those. If you want a simple adjunct / side computer to whatever you already own, then this works fine. Add on a Micro SD card like a 128 gig card, then you have enough secondary space to store things rather than the tight 64 gig drive. (The card slot for the Micro SD card, is behind the kickstand(llap on the back), out of the way and not along the edge.) This refurbished unit has a great screen with no scratches of chips. The magnesium body doesn't show any scratches or scaring either. I guess I got lucky with this one. Everything on this seems to work, from USB port to charging port, touch screen to speakers. The screen is bright and shows no signs of 'spots' or discoloration. I really think that for every other hangup I have a about Microsoft software, their hardware offerings are always pretty high quality compared to their direct competitors. So I expected and found this to be of the quality I have seen on other new and used Surface devices. The interesting thing with this purchase; It came with a charger to recharge it, as you would expect. However, you would expect a used charger nicely cleaned, twist tied, and tossed in the box. What I actually received was a brand new Microsoft charger for the Surface 3 Pro. I know it is new because (besides the spotless look and the plastic baggy it is in) it came with the cables carefully wound in that pristine way they do at the factory, then each one wrapped with that single band of polyester tape that a knock-off factory would likely not expend the money on. So I felt good about that part of this. The only thing I could ding on this experience was the packaging. It wasn't horrible, and no damage resulted from it, so it is a very minor touch point. The Surface was placed in a padded envelope of the kind they make from bubble wrap. It wasn't sealed, but was just tight enough that the device didn't slide out. That and the charger where then placed in a generic white box, much like a cut-to-fit pizza box of some sort. Good enough to stack on desertcart shelves. desertcart shipped it out in their typical 'way too big' box with just the very minimum of padding. In the end it survived. Why four stars? The device works. It shipped without damage. It had no signs of internal issues so far. It even appears to have shipped with a new power supply / charger. So far so good. I think the only thing I could complain about was packaging. It did't impress me. I don't know who does it. There was a included sticker / slip in the box detailing how vendors had to meet a certain level of quality to sell through desertcart. So maybe the vendor put that in the box, or maybe desertcart just packages the bits into a box. No idea. But it didn't really make me feel like: 'Wow, look at this packaging'. My last Surface 3 was also a refurbished unit. It came in a very nice box. Clearly branded as a Surface 3 and refurbished. And this wasn't a sticker, but a full on printed-on-shiny cardboard paint job. Some good money spent on that experience. I am pretty sure it was identical to the original shipping box, as it have the tray it floated in, and a separate box for the power supply. It could easily be that Microsoft had someone doing the official refurb and boxing, and then having someone handle the sales. However, this one was not presented in any such nice fashion. Sometimes you get lucky buying used, and I can't say I did not. It works just fine and I am using it right now to type this up right now, on battery power (which has lasted an expectedly nice amount of time, which on a device that you can not replace the battery in, is a significant issue).

### ⭐ Do not buy refurbished surface.
*by K***X on December 14, 2015*

First off the actual surface is an amazing product and exactly what I need for what I do. The problem is the refurbished surface that I received apparently came from a business and had previously been registered with Microsoft. So I was unable to register the device. The real issue is the charging port failed and the one note software has a major glitch, so Microsoft was going to send me another unit. Problem is it could not not registered so in there eyes it like I don't own the device and trying to deal with the business tech support when I am not a business and f*** ridiculous and I have gotten no where. Trying to talk on the phone is next impossible, language barrier, unfortunately I speak English. The one not issue is pretty well documented on the internet help forums and Microsoft seems to just be ignoring it, so one note is useless if you plan to share your notes with anyone. The charging port is a major issue, It occurs on the female end of the actual computer, I have the standard charger, the docking station and a car charger, it occurs on all the devices, if the cord is not positioned perfect, it will not charge and is getting worse, at one point the device will stop working and I will be out 1200 for the computer. Here is a video I did of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpOuXcmX5mw Do not buy refurbished surface.
