No idea if it's legit. My "business version" of the Surface laptop came in a regular retail box and not something that looks like it was from some 3rd party referb shop like this. After learning a couple of lessons myself I've come to say "when in doubt - walk out". If something doesn't seem legit, it is always best to walk away no matter the temptation and find another deal.

If you can confirm others receiving units in boxes like this - it very well could be legit and one you could go back to purchase, or find another if that one is gone and feel a bit more comfortable. Microsoft very well could ship these in boxes like that to businesses (after all retail packaging is very expensive for companies). They may not have had this boxing when I received mine, or our IT department purchased ours from a different business vendor. Dunno. But always worth slowing down and verifying legitimacy of a product before purchasing - and use a credit card and not debit (or PayPal) if you do buy just so you have that additional level of protection on the purchase. Good luck!

I can confirm the box is legit. Recently my GF's laptop 3 13" also came in a box like this, the seller stated it is a business version. Everything inside is well sorted for the charger, etc, and doesn't look like it was made by someone at home. Also, just last week I went to pick up a Surface book 3 from a guy I know who works in a store which is a Surface retailer, and he also gave it to me in a box like that and explained it's the business version and they get it like that from MS. Regular consumer products only come in those nice white boxes these days.

The difference should also be in the OS. I may be wrong but I think only business version devices come with Windows 10 Pro, the rest with Home.

Zac Bowden purchased a Surface Laptop 3 for business back when it came out. He reported that it came in this type of packaging as well.
