‘Tablet-top’

Surface Pro 3 review

In the past two years Microsoft has amazed the international technology arena with the release of their innovative tablet, Windows Surface a device with the sharpness and portability of a tablet and the personality and productivity of a laptop.

Since then, the groundbreaking gadget has been converted into a series, with the addition of many others to the family, including the Surface RT, Surface Pro, Surface 2 and of course, the latest and most evolutionary of all — the Surface Pro 3.

The Surface Pro 3 has been labelled as “the most productive tablet on the planet” by Microsoft, and was on Time magazine’s list of top 25 inventions of 2014.

The Surface Pro 3 includes specifications such as; a screen size of 12”, a resolution of 2160×1440, a battery life of up to nine hours of web browsing, fourth generation of Intel Core Processor family and dimensions of 11.5” x 7.93” x 0.36”. It is light and thin, only weighing only 1.76 pounds and being only 0.36 inches thin, making it the ideal tablet to take anywhere you go.

Being a Windows tablet it comes fully equipped with Window’s apps, and programs such as Microsoft Office and Abode Photoshop.

Other features like its 3.0 USB port to hold flashdrives, its multiscreen ability, its HD 5MP front and rear camera, the integrated kickstand to allow multiple work positions. The new Surface Pen allows the user to make handwritten notes and enables the Surface Pro 3 to outperform and outrank the MacBook Air.

The Surface Pro 3, “the tablet that can replace your laptop”, earns its credits as “the best Surface so far” and is blowing away critics and competitors with a starting price of US $799 which is a worthy investment for such a masterpiece.
