I’m looking into a new tablet and it seems like grabbing a surface is a more affordable option to an iPad or other high end tablet. I can grab a decent one on marketplace for under $200 us. Is it worth it?

    I have a Surface Pro 8 running EndeavourOS. No issues aside from the camera not working. Tried a bunch of workarounds trying to get the camera to work, but couldn’t ever get it functioning. Sometimes I can connect an external webcam and that works, sometimes it doesn’t.

    If you aren’t using it for any web conferencing or video calls, then its pretty great. That said, I probably wouldn’t buy another one. I’d go with a cheapo tablet and a small laptop.
