Surface pro 3 may be the first super hybrid of its kind being emulated by many other companies now. However, traits like flexibility, portability, paired with immense computing power come at a great cost.
I myself own a macbook. My husband owns a recently bought surface pro 3. He always compares the two and tells me how superior the surface counterpart is. And to an extent, I accept that he has a point.
Microsoft marketed surface lineup as tablet, which works as a laptop. For me its a laptop, which can work as a tablet.
Detachable beautiful type cover provides equally efficient functionality. The kickass kickstand is such a genius idea and offers multiple viewing angles upto 150 degrees. Something for iPad pro to learn.
Type cover I have got is that of surface pro 4's and costs a whooping extra Rs. 12000. Add to it Rs. 6000 for Surface pen. This isn't anywhere near small amount now and overall package now costs about Rs. 75000, for core i3 model with 128 GB HDD.
There is no graphics card support here. But most of daily work is handled with ease. So the device is not for avid gamers.
Inspite of enormous price, there is no better hybrid than surface pro at the moment. Pro 4 lineup is even more expensive. Not to forget it's a tablet and iPad is nowhere to be seen in it's competition.
I love Mac OS, but I am begining to get familiar with Windows 10 and just the loved the way they have blended the tablet UI and PC UI in one OS. Personally I am a fan of one note, one drive and their integration with surface pen. Brilliant!
Need to appreciate MS for the effort and innovation.
So of you can afford, then there is no tablet like surface pro.
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
