Surface Laptop 3 Review (1 Year Later)

Intro

Today Microsoft announced a release date for the Surface Laptop 4! Exciting news as I am big fan of Surface products. Why a Surface Laptop 3 review then? Well with a new product normally comes a price reduction on the previous generation of that product so there will be many of many Surface Laptop 3 being sold. Now there are a million things to love about the Surface Laptop 3 so I unfortunately will not cover those as there is plenty of content already on that. I want to cover some of the cons that you will not find out from reviews. 

Product Reviews

Product reviews are great, but the reviews that you see are normally made by professional product reviewers, so you are seeing a review of someone who used the product for less than an hour and needs to upload their review as soon as possible to garner the same views as their product reviewers’ competitors. 

Cons

These cons you will not find out about through traditional product reviews. Why? Again, they do not actually use the product for a long period of time…well not even a short period of time! I have listed two cons that you will never uncover through traditional means:

  1.  Screen cracking from closing (The Verge)
  2.  Keyboard peeling

A Weird Observation I Noticed In The School of Engineering

The students are different and it is shocking! Now when I say different I am not referring to the physical, although there is a lot of differences in that aspect as well (saving that for a rainy day), but rather on the emotional aspect. It really comes down to  behavior ! I spent a lot of time in other classes and schools, primarily the School of Business and it was not until I left this behind in pursuit of a major that fell into the School of Engineering realm was it that I realized how different this particular body of students are. From my very first class, multiple students behaved in ways that demonstrated a lack of social awareness and that is being generous in my assessment since one could argue that the behaviors fall more in line with narcissism, autism or a personality disorder of some sort. I will list some examples of what I transpired in my first class: The professor said the opposite of what was on the slide, but it was very straightforward and common knowledge for a...
