Edit: Newegg Deal is now dead BUT

Now there is even a $100 cheaper price available online than the expired newegg deal at Microcenter (see post 4), and that means it is $349 cheaper than Lenovo's MSRP, on the m3 and m5 models at microcenter Online and in instore pickup. This is the same processor and similar specs as the Surface Pro 4 for $899+$139 keyboard vs $499+$40 for a faster processor, or $399+40 for the same speed processor as the Surface Pro 4 but 64gb storage instead of 128gb

Surface Pro Clone Lenovo Miix 700+Keyboard Dock for Core M3 $499, M5 for $599, M7 for $799, Wacom Active Stylus $39.99

All the Lenovo Miix 700 tablets/ convertibles are $250 off or more on Newegg currently

Note there are even more models I am not listing if you prefer the W10 Pro vs W10 Home

------

Newegg is also giving away for free when you buy one of these Lenovos a 7" Vulcan Windows 10 Tablet, with 1gb of Ram, 16gb of storage and 1024x600 resolution. These tablets are normally $49.99 but you get one free when you buy a Miix 700

------

Note the Stylus Pen is Extra, it is $39.99 and is on back order at Amazon and Lenovo.com, Newegg does not have it in stock either. It uses Wacom’s new Active ES technology, with 2048 levels of sensitivity but the stylus requires a battery which is included (AAAA just like the surface pro)

It is now even cheaper at Microcenter and you can buy online or instore.

Intel Core m3-6Y30 Processor 2.2GHz
Microsoft Windows 10
4GB Onboard DDR3L SDRAM
64GB Solid State Drive
Intel HD Graphics 515
Micro SD Card Reader
802.11ac Wireless
Bluetooth 4.0
12" Full HD IPS Multi Touch Display

$399 so this is $100 cheaper than the expired newegg deal and cheaper than the MSRP $749


This has the same processor, ram, and similar specs to the Surface pro 4 for $899 but you also have to add the keyboard for $139 so effectively $1000+ but this surface pro competitor is only $400 and for $40 more you can add a wacom active stylus. Only thing you lose is 64gb of storage since the surface pro 4 has 128gb of storage but check out the next deal.

Intel Core m5-6Y54 Processor 2.7GHz
Microsoft Windows 10
4GB DDR3L RAM
128GB Solid State Drive
Intel HD Graphics 515
802.11ac Wireless
Bluetooth 4.0
12" Full HD IPS Multi Touch Display

http://www.microcenter.com/product/466670/Ideapad_Miix_700_12_2-in-1_Laptop_Computer_-_Gold

So this model has 128gb of storage instead of 64gb and has the faster m5-6y54 (up to 2.7 ghz) for $499.

$499 so this is $100 cheaper than the expired newegg deal and cheaper than the MSRP $849

Good deals for sure, thanks for the private message as well! After my recent purchases, gtx 1080 gigabyte g1 gaming, samsung 850 pro 512gb ssd, 16gb 2400mhz ddr3 ram and some noctua nth-1 thermal paste, I think the wife is at the limit with the pc spending stuff haha. If this deal is still around in a week or so I may have to pick it up :)

If I get rid of one of my firearms I could pick up 2 of the 128gb versions, one for work and one for home....I probably only need one though in reality... Hmm this has me thinking now...

I could easily get 700 for my 9mm, I already have an extra 9mm, and I can grab 400 for my 357, thats 1100 for toys! It very well may be worth the trade off xD
