Microsoft Store Opening in Atlanta ~ Gifts for Grads
This blog post is part of a paid SocialMoms and Microsoft blogging program. The opinions and ideas expressed here are my own.
Have you been inside a Microsoft store? I recently had the chance to tour the new Microsoft store here in Atlanta at Perimeter Mall. I toured the store before and after the official opening.
The Microsoft store truly has it all and they want you to experience it. Inside you will find the latest and great from Microsoft including PCs, tablets, video game consoles, video games, phones and so much more. You can get the latest in technology, games, software and friendly advice.

MY TOP PICKS FOR GRADS
Surface Pro 3
This definitely tops my list. Weighing just 1.76 pounds, the new 12-inch Surface Pro 3 combines the best of the laptop with the portability of a tablet. You will find that the Surface Pro 3 has all the power and performance of a premium laptop in a thin and lightweight design. It also comes with the all-new Surface Pen which delivers a natural writing and drawing experience.
Samsung ATIV One 5 Style DP515A2G-K02US Touchscreen All-in-One
This stylish computer would be as perfect in the home as it would be in a dorm room making it a great grad gift. It's pure white body, sleek profile, slim bezel and metallic edge make it look great from any angle. The 21.5-inch screen gives you tons of space for everything from browsing photos and web content to heavy-duty tasks like editing videos and playing intense games.
Sony VAIO Fit 15E Touchscreen Laptop SVF1532ACYW
If a laptop is needed rather than a desktop, then this Sony VAIO would be a good fit. The VAIO Fit 15E is a 15.5-inch laptop that's flexible with its Full HD touchscreen, DVD drive and more. Perfect for class notes, playing games and surfing the web. It is both stylish and affordable.
Nokia Lumia 1020
I don't know a kid in the world who wouldn't appreciate a new phone when they graduate from high school. The Nokia Lumia far surpasses other phones in terms of quality and more. The Nokia Lumia 1020 has a 41-megapixel camera sensor, PureView technology, Optical Image Stabilization, and amazing high-resolution zoom. Take pictures of that new college dorm or the next phase of life while exploring the world. Nokia Rich Recording makes it possible to capture sharp HD video with distortion-free sound.
FREE SUMMER CAMPS FOR KIDS AT THE MICROSOFT STORE
Do you have a child who is yearning to learn coding or to design their own video game? Maybe they want to learn about photo or video editing. The Microsoft Store can help and in fact, they do it all for free. You can register your child for various camps at the Microsoft Store. Camp topics and hours vary.
GET YOUR GRAD A PC AND GET A DEAL
If your grad is getting the diploma, don't you think that they could use a new PC as well? The Microsoft store thinks so and they are offering $100 towards the purchase of a PC of $599 or more.

Microsoft is a household name and they definitely create some quality products! I wouldn’t mind finding the nearest store near me and giving it a visit to learn more about the products and company 🙂
The photo of the store looks great it looks so high tech but then again what else would you expect from Microsoft.
You guys seem to have so much cool stuff down there in Atlanta! I love Boston, but I think I could really be happy down in Atlanta, too.
Now that is one awesome store!!!!
I head into Atlanta quite often and look forward to checking out the new store. I have a Microsoft family for sure!
I have never used a touchscreen computer but it sounds cool! I am totally signing my son up for a Microsoft camp – thanks!
That touchscreen laptop is to die for… I graduated 8 years ago- but maybe I can convince hubby!
oh it would be so much fun to tour a Microsoft office! They have so many fun things to play with! I am so jealous right now.
I love windows products! I so want to get an all-in-one computer for our next computer.
this looks like such a great store, so many great microsoft products I would love to visit and pick up a tablet.
My daughter has a Surface and loves it. I’m sure she would go for that upgraded one!
I was so excited when our Microsoft store opened in Miami! It’s an awesome place to go and drool over new technology!
My son is graduating from high school so we are about to start looking for a new computer. Thank you for sharing.
What a great place to grab gifts for grads! I love how sleek and technical the Microsoft stores look
Wow,how cool is a Microsoft Store? I’d love to check one out myself!
Sounds like a great experience and very informative!
Microsoft is a family word in our home. I love how sleek and stylish. All 3 of my daughters grew up on their products and would never go anywhere else 🙂
Wow, look at all the stuff there! I could spend hours in this store!
Wow, I want them to open one up in my city.
That surface pen is unbelievably cool on the new 3 machine. I wouldn’t mind having one of those. Great gift ideas!
Very cool! I would love to go play with their devices at some point. I am super intrigued by the Surface!!
I love that you can try out all the machines before you buy one. It makes a huge difference to try things hands on rather than just reading reviews off the net and hoping you will like it.
This store looks pretty awesome. I love to try out all the new gadgets!
Atlanta isn’t too far from us. I will have to come visit the store sometime.
So cool. I want a Microsoft store near me.
