But almost everything that wasn't wonderful about the Surface Pro is still present in the Surface Pro 2. Perhaps most telling-and troubling-are the systemic issues that a spec bump can't fix

In all honesty, I like the Surface Pro 2. It's a nice device that has some good specs and great build quality. I really don't like the Type Covers much, so I'd recommend getting a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse instead. Once you have that, I really think th...

Abstract: With the first Surface Pro , Microsoft laid out its vision of the future: one mobile device with the guts of a laptop that can replace your tablet, laptop, and maybe even desktop. Unfortunately that first model also brought along some sketchy battery life...
Abstract: Since my first review of Microsoft's Surface Pro 2 I've continued to use the ultra-portable device for work and leisure but I've not really pushed the hardware to find its limits. In the last week that has changed. I'm in Austin for the annual South by So...
Best-in-class performance and battery life, Attractive screen, Premium look and feel, Improved two-stage kickstand
Still heavy as a tablet, Keyboards add over $100 to the price, Single USB port
If you're looking for an attractive, powerful tablet with good battery life, Microsoft's much-improved Surface Pro 2 delivers. Just don't expect this top-tier slate to come cheap—it's priced at over $1,000 when you add in the cost of the keyboard cov...

Attractive, well-built hardware, Great display, Fast performance, improved battery life, More comfortable to use in the lap
Still heavy as a standalone tablet, Typing experience hasn't improved much
The new Surface Pro is more viable as a laptop replacement, but it hasn't made much progress as a standalone tablet. Ultimately, it's at its best in laptop mode, but it's still not always as comfortable to use as a proper Ultrabook....
Abstract: Let's face facts: Most people weren't impressed by the original Microsoft Surface and Windows RT. The first Surface lacked the performance and the operating system that most PC users demand.Microsoft was quick to respond in early 2013 with the Surface Pro...
Excellent design and build, Superb display, Active pen proves very useful, Performance matches best in class
Pricey, Needs a keyboard cover to be complete, Desktop experience a bit awkward
The Surface Pro 2 is a first-rate device. Its combination of mobility, power, and design matches and even slightly outperforms topnotch Ultrabooks with similar size and specs. Unfortunately, like those Ultrabooks, the Microsoft Surface Pro 2 is also expe...

Keyboard not included, Cramped touchpad, Relatively heavy for a tablet, Limited tablet app selection, Poor camera quality
Thanks to its much-improved battery life and fast performance, the Microsoft Surface Pro 2 is a compelling tablet and laptop in one device....
