Too wide and too tall to work as a tablet too small to replace a laptop. Previous Surface Pros felt simultaneously too small and too large. But it’s also the first serious redesign of the Surface Pro since the original and Microsoft has made all the right moves.
It still has a built-in kickstand, a keyboard cover (optional but essential) and a pressure sensitive stylus. The basic Surface Pro concept remains the same. Related: Everything you need to know about the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 Microsoft has taken three swings to strike a proper hit, but the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 is one. It’s the tool you’ll never leave at home or at work, because it’s essential to both. It’s a graphics tablet and a digital notepad. It’s a complete PC, but it’s not a PC 100% of the time. It’s as adept at watching Netflix in bed as it is working on-site and on the move. It’s not a straight replacement for either. If you want an iPad, you should go buy a damn iPad Air. If you need a laptop, you should probably still buy a laptop. Microsoft calls it “the tablet that can replace your laptop”. Version Tested: £849 Intel i5, 128GB with £109 Type Cover What is the Surface Pro 3? Whether you wait or not, though, the Pro 3 remains an outstanding hybrid that’s great for highly mobile professionals. Windows 10 is just around the corner and now would be the perfect time for Microsoft to upgrade it. It’s nothing like as fast, so it’s only suitable for basic computing, but it’s a great product.īut if you are planning on the buying the Surface Pro 3, it might be worth waiting to see if Microsoft updates it soon. If you like the idea of the Pro but can’t justify the cost, the Surface 3 offers a similar design and features in a smaller, more portable design. One caveat is the cheaper alternative, which is Microsoft’s own Surface 3. Its outstanding performance and unique design make it a stand out product. That’s partly because the Surface Pro 3 is so unique, but it’s no less true. It’s still an outstanding hybrid and there isn’t a product in its class that surpasses it. Update : It’s over a year since the Surface Pro 3 came out, so how does it look now? More or less the same.
