I used one in school a couple years ago, and I can't deny it was pretty great for it. I like to handwrite my notes, and any math-heavy assignments are way easier to just handwrite, so I used it so all my notes and homework and textbooks could be saved digitally and automatically get backed up to cloud storage. I still use it occasionally as a super light and portable laptop occasionally, but I use a desktop far more often these days.
I had a Surface Pro 4 when I went to university. I always said if it wasn't for the note taking there was no way I would recommend it. It had all kinds of software issues and eventually it just straight died while I was studying one day. I don't think I've ever had a computer die like that, eventually they just get replaced by being obsolete.
