The second one seems better in every way that matters

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

First of all, wrong section. Is Surface a phone? No.

 

I'd always go for the more expensive option, but i5 should be more than enough for basic tasks, but if your doing graphic extensive tasks such as Photoshop CC, get i7. Warranty shouldn't matter on a device that premium. Also, it's better to buy new than used, you never know there might be one minor hardware problem that makes the whole tablet useless.
