What do you intend to do with the touchscreen? There is nothing wrong with them, however, some people buy them without thinking about how long they will actually use the touch. It's mainly a gimmick for a laptop for the most part.

Not needed, you should focus on your needs, usage and preferences and most likely touchscreen may just come with the right laptop

This is the minimum specification that I was given 4GB RAM, 500GB Intel HD4000 Graphics.
At least 6 hours or more battery life and I don't do gaming but do use the Internet a lot
Thanks for any help

Don't bother with a touch screen, most people never use it.

I guess it depends how well it's done? Most Surface Pro owners I know use their touchscreen really often.

If you've bought a surface pro to use as a laptop; you've been mis-sold.

The surface pro is a reasonable laptop, You can get far better laptops for the same price.
