    I also have a surface pro 7, how is it any less usable without the type cover than any other tablet without one?

      Most Windows applications work like ass with touch. Most iPad and Android apps work best with touch.

        I mean sure, but you have the flexibility of a fully featured computer. You could run Android apps on it if you really wanted that UX.

        In my experience all that really means is that you’re forced to use the stylus for precise taps or right click functionality sometimes.

          Same flexibility would be there if the default OS was different. The same PC with Android-x86 would just as capable of booting other systems but the default experience would be touch (finger) friendly.

          Cool. There is no stylus included, though.

            No, but there is a virtual touchpad included in Windows that accomplishes the same thing. Different use cases exist and it sounds like an Android tablet fits yours better.
