    Every Surface Pro review talks about how great the stylus is and they show some gimmicky demo of how you could take notes. Every time it's obvious they dont actually use it to take notes. This is the first time I've seen someone that obviously uses the device to it's full note taking glory. It was informative and fun. Your note taking skills are on pointed. Cheers!

      As an engineering ‘lecturer’ at a UK university, I think this video is excellent at explaining the power of OneNote. Many of my students use it to mark up slides or take down my content from the white board.
      OneNote also works as an app on iPads. They also work with the excellent Apple Pencil. Hopefully, your college gives its students free copies of MS Office - mine does.
      Overall, I use both a Surface Pro 6 i5/256gb and an iPad Pro 10.5 in/256gb both with their respective pencils.
      The most important recommendation of the video is that it’s always best to write your notes rather than type (on auto pilot). Even the ‘old pen and paper’ is better for memory recall when you exams come along than typed notes.
      There is software now for scanning and filing paper notes into the cloud. Being 60 I still recall how to write.....

If not, the tech department is going to HATE me! "It's the old lady who doesn't know how to use her Surface...hide!"

    • @kaitshipp12
      @kaitshipp12 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@dankness4950, I've been looking into things that might possibly cause the SP7 to slow down. The only things I have found that might possibly be the problem is updates that "break" the system. A few of the updates in the recent past have caused problems like making the system run slowly, deleting all settings/customization (I had that one) . What I did was delete the update and restore it to what it was before and wait to the next update. I wait a bit to research the reviews on the current update before applying it, just to make sure it's not going to "break" anything. I use quotes on break, because the SP7 can usually be restored and updates can be deleted (usually). If an update CAN be deleted, it usually fixes the issue.
      I hope this helps.
      The only other thing I can think of is having too many high res tabs open (i.e. Hulu, Netflix, TH-cam) open at the same time just on different tabs. My 11 yr old had this and once I closed them, just like magic, hers started working well again. I'm guessing you have already tried this one though.
      Also, the cache fills quickly and doesn't remember the settings you set (i.e. dont remember this ever... still does) and sometimes that creates problems, but emptying it is fast and painless. I do it weekly.
      Sorry this turned out to be so long.
      I hope this helps.

    I watched your video about a year ago when I was deciding whether or not to get the Surface, and a year later this thing remains one of my favorite purchases of all time. It's been such a lifesaver for my bio lectures because I can just import the powerpoints and not have to worry about wasting time trying to redraw all the diagrams and graphs and whatnot. I will probably stay with the Surface product line for a good while now (hopefully I won't have to worry about buying a new Surface for a good few years at least haha)

    Love this video. Everything in this video is exactly why I love using Surface. I'm a slow writer so dealing with jumpy lectures slows me down cuz I have to erase and go back and write stuff. With surface and onenote I can delete words and letters quickly. Rearrange sentences into a better format. And switching between a highlighter, pen, and different colors of each is factually faster on a tablet. I've never been able to have colorful notes with physical note taking tools. Surface has changed that and looking back at my notes is way easier because of it.

    I've been using my 2-in-1 for 1 school week and I just love it so much. Note taking has been so much easier and it's much easier to study now. I can write meters of notes without worrying about running out of space and without having to get new notebooks, which is one of the main reasons I chose to get a 2-in-1 as my laptop for college.
    The main challenge for me is to get used to how writing feels on a tablet laptop, since it still feels way different from using pen and paper. Still, the benefits outweigh the costs and now I don't have to study with tons of paper strewn across my desk.

    Thanks for a great vid specifically about note taking. I am shopping around for a device for my daughter who will be in 7th grade next year so this definitely was very helpful in making up my mind to buy a surface pro 7.

    Definitely, I'll purchase the surface. I'm about to begin my Master in Mathematics, and I was in a quandary between the surface and the iPad Pro. Your video was meaningful to take such desicion :)

    I subscribed - You killed it with this video. I'm a 35 yo woman who received a surface pro as a gift and your video actually made me so excited to find reasons to use it! You made me feel like a uni student again haha - Bought myself a pen too! What else you got on the pro and onenote, cutie?!

    I have a Surface Pro as well, and it is the best damn purchase I have ever made. I can carry the "notebooks" + textbooks for all of my four classes in one tablet. I didn't know about the different tips of the stylus, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction! A definite sub from me!

    Your presentation style is extremely cool! It's fluent and informative and it's a joy to watch your face. This feels really fresh and nice when compared with all those slick haired Apple Productivity Buffs. Also, you gave real world examples how you use it in your real life. Can you comment on the handwriting to text conversion? Problem with "drawn" text is, that it is not searchable/indexable.

    I do digital notes as well! I have a Dell laptop that is a 2-in1 it folds back into a tablet and it’s awesome! I use OneNote as well! I’m tech savvy and for this being the first time doing digital notes it’s pretty cool! I’m currently in college and I use it for my Math course (algebra) even though I did think about doing notes with a surface (I don’t have one I just thought about it) and it turns out someone actually does it! You go girl you rock that surface!

    One note is amazing, i am no longer studing but i use it to keep record or my bills with check list and comparative lists, wish lists even for work when the clients are disperse and use too many webs and different chats i just agroup everything in a one note sheet. Amazing tool.

      i do similar a levels and just wanna say that if you’re planning on taking something like engineering after college and want to be able to use the same laptop, because buying a surface pro for two years is a bit expensive you might want to look at something more powerful than the surface. also good luck in your a levels! :)
