Microsoft’s Surface will be shipping on Friday, and the early reviews are already in.

Short summary? It’s an amazing piece of hardware, with desperately bad flaws in its operating system and app ecosystem.

It’s also an amazingly diverse crop of opinions for a single piece of hardware. Clearly, Microsoft has created something surprisingly new, and no one quite agrees on how to evaluate it yet.

Still, do you want one? Probably not.

Every reviewer praises the sophistication and originality of the hardware. Everyone is impressed with how sturdy and clicky the kickstand is. Nobody likes the two cameras (one front-facing and one rear-facing), which take mediocre pictures and are slow besides.

Sam Biddle, Gizmodo:

The Surface is instantly more charming than any Windows device that’s come before it. It’s nearly the perfect size, and the form is almost beyond reproach. If you want a tablet, use it like a tablet. If you want a laptop, use it like a laptop. Both modes seem right, like a genuine seachange step forward.

On the other hand, the Surface is undermined by a lot of flaws. The Touch Cover is “a letdown” and costs more than $100 extra. Windows RT is disappointing and feels like a “tundra” with major apps missing — like Facebook and Twitter. There’s no image-editing software. Office is a limited beta, and the desktop mode is a “cruel tease” because you can’t install any Windows software there. Should you buy the Surface? Gizmodo concludes with a flat No.
