Laptop vs surface pro 3/4

905 Views 3 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  Masterchiefxx17
I am looking to pick up a new/used laptop or surface pro 3/4 for college. Is one better then the other?

The main features I require are:
1. Battery life
2. touch screen (and possibly a digitizer touch screen)
3. ability to be used in a lap because desks in lecture hall may be too small
4. not important but abaility for light gaming (ie minecraft, games that could have been played on a macbook)

I will mostly be taking biology and chemistry classes and need a device that works well for those type of courses.

I am looking to spend around $600-900.00 and am looking at both new and used/refurbished options.

I am currently using a macbook pro 13" to type and record audio using onenote but am considering a laptop/table with touch screen so i can handwrite/type/and draw notes and for the widnows version of onenote.

It's pretty good at writing, but nearly all people that I see with a Surface type on it instead as writing isn't as nice as pen and paper.
