Click on the stylus icon to the left, then the SETTINGS APP link. Then go down to the drop down menue for PRESS AND HOLD and select "Nothing". Also, if you type "Calibrate" in Cortana, you can find the tool to calibrate your pen and touch input to feel more natural and accurate.

From a college student perspective, this surface has been amazing so far. I use onenote for my notes and the writing feels like i'm writing on paper (especially when i added a cheap matte screen protector). I can have 2 onenote windows up at the same time to write notes and check the teacher's slides while having another window for google in case I'm still confused with the lecture. The writing is smooth and quick while switching from hand touch to pen a breeze. I sound like an ad but damn, i'm glad I picked it over a regular laptop. Hopefully they'll have noteability for windows soon.

Mia Can you tell me what screen protector you're using? I own a Surface Pro 6 base model without the keyboard (using my old apple wireless bluetooth keyboard) and I recently watched JerryRickEverything's video about the durability of the device. I got pretty worried about the fractures that occurred on his surface. I use my surface a lot for drawing and wonder whether your 'cheap matte screen protector' is okay with the surface pen in terms of recognition and pressure sensitivity. Thank you in advance.

I totally agree with you. In addition, if someone is looking for a serious upgrade, this device should do the job. However, it is still an amazing machine. On the other hand, I deeply believe that Microsoft will go for a change next year, 2020 will be too late. But who knows...if they want to keep "pc-windows-office" type concept, the ups will be for good, but not good enough for all serious illustrators.

Idk, I've been using a surface pro3 i5 for years now for "serious work" (as in actual concept art, illustration and now product design) and id rather use my sp3 than my wacom cintiq 13hd. I wouldn't spread the misinformation that the surface line is not good enough for pros, because it is. At least for 2d work, the issue arises with heavy 3d work but it wasn't designed for this anyway.

@@6132-k1n Actually, "misinformation" is a word writtent too imprudently here. For sure, milions of people do their professional work thanks to Surface Pro or even Go machines. However, the review showed clearly that the bar is not enough higher to cover more specific needs. And this will be visible when Ipad Pro comes at the end of this month with the promise for full Photoshop experience and not only that. Anyway even this Ipad Pro wont cover all specific needs. But, for sure, could go beyond the Surface line at this stage. If Apple is going to do that, I hope in 2019 we all meet the real face of Surface Pro- the better choice for most of the people. P., there is no "the perfect device". Peace. I have a flight to catch.

"For serious drawing, doesn’t work." I disagree. As some have mentioned, they've used it for serious creative work. I also know a guy who does illustration and animation with his surface pro. That's photoshop and flash/animate. It's pretty neat. An i7 with 8gb+ ram should suffice. I'm sure that most professionals use this as a daily laptop/tablet because of how portable it is, but it doesn't mean that they don't also have a different or even a better computer in their home.

The crappy pen performance kills it for me, and is the #1 reason I got an iPad instead of a Surface. Sucks, because the only thing the iPad is good for is drawing and painting, and a Surface would be far more versatile. Classic Microsoft of making something that it just good enough instead of excellent, and classic Apple of making something that is really great for one thing, but limiting it so you have to buy another Apple product that does something else.

@@nadeemshaikh7863 Nope, it's pure crap for drawing, apparently. It seems to be like the mirror image of the iPad: horrible for anything that needs a pen, and great for anything that needs a good keyboard and trackpad and a real browser. Apple isn't going to add that to the iPad, they want people to buy an iPad *and* a MacBook, and Google doesn't care enough about people who do art or design to be bothered improving the pen experience on the Slate. I likely will buy an iPad Pro 12.9 and do essentially what I do now, only use the iPad for drawing and painting, and use my Chromebook or desktop for everything else. I don't even like the iPad for media consumption, though the Pro might be better.

the latency you're seeing in the drawing apps could be from line smoothing, it sets back your lines as to remove most unwanted bumps. some apps can disable this or add more if you want ultra smooth lines.

I love this machine. Yeah, there's definitely a drop off (pen wise - from my Cinitiq Pro 24) but, it's not like I can carry my work station around. Granted the Apple pencil is better but, the rest of the Surface Pro is better. And as stated, the Pro can run "everything" and it's seemless with my workstation. You can't continue or start something on the go if using Painter, Illustrator or PS as examples, with your ipad. Plus... so nice to be out of the Apple ecosystem... another topic but, too wonderful not to mention!

You've clearly never owned an ipad to make a comment like that. Ipad has great PSD support so why you need photoshop? There's procreate, sketchbook, clip studio, paintstom, affintiy photo, infinite painter, etc the list goes on for the number of apps that can use PSD files. Not to mention who wants photoshop or illustrator on an ipad anyways when you'll sit there and pay a crap ton of money to due its subscription pricing? You could just buy affinity photo and designer which comes with 90% of everything photoshop and illustrator does, only its a one time price/buy. There is a reason why you see a lot of artists use an ipad for their mobile devices and just about none of them use a surface pro, despite both being in the same price range and the surface pro running "everything". Its all about good drawing software and experience, an area where the ipad crushes the surface.

I felt bad that I might get her the Surface since it's cheaper and within my budget and that always means it's not as good as the iPad Pro. But now after watching you review I feel this might be a good start for her and the Surface is not inferior at all and on top of that it's a full PC.

As a tech guy, the big thing you forgot to mention is how the processor is now fully quad core rather than dual core with hypertreading (a pseudo quad core). This makes it so CPU intensive tasks can do a lot better now like video editing and includes drawing application since all is carried by the CPU since there is no dedicated GPU to do the brute work.

Fantastic review!! I currently have an SP4 with an i7 and 16GB of RAM and the latest pen. Is the SP6 worth the upgrade? I’d much rather replace my 1 gen 12.9” iPad Pro with whatever it announced next week.

I have a mobile studio and I love most things about it. The pen is by far the best I’ve used. I just wish it had a snap on keyboard or was lighter. I’m hoping the surface line will catch up over time.

for anyone having surface and wants to enjoy drawing, don't even think about photoshop, it is slow with terrible stabilizer and intense wobbly-jitter lines and also bad brushes. I Highly recommend "Krita" it works pretty smooth, brushes are amazing specially the pencil brushes, and you have multiple stabilizer options, the feeling is unlike any other app i tried. if you went to store to just test surface pen and they don't have krita just use windows sketchpad it is a lot better than photoshop.

Nackle Putackle its the way you draw; if you draw with your wrist like this guy, youre more likely to end up with feathered or wobbly lines, but if you draw with your arm, the your lines are a lot smoother

A couple friends suggested I look at the surface but watching this video I don't see it as a viable option for frequent drawing. The lines look horrifically wobbly as you're drawing :O And only having 4000 levels of pressure is crazy, 8000 has been the standard for awhile.

thanks very much dude, im 100% new to the tablet game, but i need something to use on the go and just for bored doodling/ quick sketch commissions at cons and work. I will be getting the Pro 6 and its pen. This review has answered all questions I couldnt find on google. i still have my big home kit for the super large detailed work that I would normally do, but i dont always have access or time to get to it, so im hoping the pro 6 will help me reclaim some wasted creative time.

Do you use screen protector on your surface pro? If yes, tell please which one? Film or glass? How does it work when you use a stylus on a film or glass? Are there any bugs?

So I have a question... of I use a drawing app (firealpaca) theres a "stabilizer" or correction. It makes it so the lines draw smoother and makes them not jittery. If I used that with the Surface Pro and pen, do you think it would fix the jitter and be just fine? Because when I do lineart I like PERFECTLY straight and non jittery lines

So hang on, if I buy the surface pro 6 and couple that up with a Wacom pen instead, would that avoid these annoying issues? I thought that this was a Surface Pro issue. I'm buying this device and don't want to pay for the pen if there are better options out there. Can anyone help?

There is literally 0 jitter on mine. It only happens on the surface pen when you're drawing SUPER slow. I use the bamboo ink which is $50 cheaper and its perfect.

5th touch screen Windows device now and best by far. I think it is great value. Purchased a whole lot of USB C devices for my previous USB C ONLY Galaxy Tab Pro S and to be honest it isn’t an issue not having it. I have the adapter so everything is compatible. We have hundreds of the previous versions of these at work, and they keep getting more and more reliable and stable with each version. Would give it 8 out of 10
