Good price on the this Surface Pro especially if you still have the AMEX deal still unused " Spend $350 or more, get $50 back " then you save another $50 making it $1048

JB Hifi currently have this for $1145 discounted

Signature Type Cover(KEYBOARD ) , Surface Pen, and Surface Arc Mouse each sold separately - mentioned in link
As far as I know it doesn’t, however that is the exact image HN are using to advertise this deal on their website surprisingly!
it's called surface jv, only surface is included
only surface is included
It was included earlier in the year via the microsoft store.
Bolding words doesn't make your statements any less autismo
I bought my wife some new lingerie and it didn't include the hot model wearing them in the ad, so yes very misleading
No the photo shows keyboard but the description says keyboard not included
(Signature Type Cover, Surface Pen, and Surface Arc Mouse each sold separately).
The photo is what appears from the link uploaded.
@jv: Yeah have seen that before but after extensive searching this seems to be the best deal currently and I picked up a Alacantra keyboard for $160 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/113719838266 with PYLON Coupon
Wow thought it was a laptop but its just some tablet thingy
It's a pretty good 'tablet thingy' though…
It has a camera so of you swallow it you can see inside you

MS Store selling at 1145 too. You can buy from MS Store if you have the AMEX offer.
There are no base models avail on the MS store currently
There is. You need to change the color from black to silver.
Waiting for the bundle to come down to $1170 as it was in April.
Pretty misleading when 4 out of 5 photos include the keyboard cover.
Agreed, and the earlier models came standard with a keyboard a few years back, so people with that in mind might be caught out pretty easily if they aren't clearly made aware it's an option / addon now.
Interesting that JV says the same thing and gets 14 down votes.
Ironic.
JV has a certain way with words though (:
Sometimes maybe.
Sometimes (s)he can be a right royal dick.
But often they can be the balance that OZB needs.
I quote… "Pretty sure it's misleading advertising if you don't make it obviously clear that it's excluded"
Entirely fair and valid in my opinion… yet >18 negs on this very comment.
Picture of mouse and keyboard for demo purposes only.
*Office 365 available separately.
**Available colours for Type Cover and Surface Pro 6 may vary by market and configuration. (Signature Type Cover, Surface Pen, and Surface Arc Mouse each sold separately).
Fyi, if you are worried about space just get one of those 128gb Samsung Micro SD Cards, works like a charm for additional storage
and wow type cover is like $200 now, I got the one for my Surface 3 (like 3-4 years ago) for $150, try asking for a bundled discount if you go in store
Yep, I put a 256GB microSD in my fiance's Surface Pro 6 128GB, was less than $75 (can't remember the exact price).
She's not a heavy storage user, but piece of mind there should she need it.
type cover is like $200 now, I got the one for my Surface 3 (like 3-4 years ago) for $150
I got a Surface pro 3, i5 8Gb with a type cover for $400 on ebay… It's in perfect condition except battery only lasts about 3 hours.
Is it worthwhile upgrading from the SP4 if its working well?
The main pro I see is batter life? I get 5-6hrs on low brightness vs. ~9hrs seems possible on the SP6?
Incremental processor upgrades are of low value to me as I'm not doing intensive tasks and the SP4 4/128Gb handles fine.
Dont upgrade
I still run a 3 and it works great, dont think you should upgrade unless its dying.
3 hours of battery and better processor probably not worth
Nah, keep it. Only advantage of SP6 vs 4 is the addition of USB-C
SP6 doesn't have a USB-C either.
Thanks for the mental fortitude everyone! Going keep the SP4 until it dies. I still have my Surface 3 which I sometimes use due to its handier size :)
How much to add the keyboard ?
Had a look at this at JB yesterday. Haven't started negotiating yet.
There is a review from last year, they say the keyboard is a must.
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/oct/16/microsoft…
Keyboard from Micro$oft site is $160 for the black one, $200 for other colours.
Pen is $112.( Dearer at JB)
Shopback says 5.5% cashback on Microsoft site. ( Around the $80 mark ).
Agree, keyboard is a must. My fiance has this exact unit with the keyboard and it's a good package. Would definitely feel incomplete without the Type Cover.
Both Harvey Norman and JB Hi-Fi have dropped the price to $1079 (20% off)
Does it include the keyboard in the picture that you posted ?
