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
Battery Life, Sheer Performance, Versatility, True digitizer pen, Display, Noise emissions, Build quality, Integrated kickstand, Magnetic power connector, Power adapter with integrated USB charging functionality
Weight, Camera resolution, Heat emissions (under full load), Price, Expensive accessories, Somewhat reduced display sharpness when scaled up

Welcome improvements such as the kickstand design, more responsive keyboard and better battery life, Windows 8.1 is nice to use on the Surface Pro 2

Wildly portable yet has the power of an Ultrabook. Sharp display, Wacom digital pen for notes and art, much improved battery life and keyboard covers

It remains an excellently built device, Great performance, Great screen, Impressive battery life
Still has poor cameras, The lack of garage means that losing that stylus is inevitable
Abstract: You have to appreciate Microsoft's tenacity. After launching the original Surface Pro tablet to mixed reviews, the company opted not to rebuild from scratch but to refine its vision for a thick and heavy, but powerful, tablet. The result is Surface Pro 2....
Abstract: The Microsoft Surface pro 2 is the latest in the Pro line of Surface products; what does that mean? Well for starters it means the Surface Pro 2 is capable of handling Windows 8.1 pro, running legacy apps and still have the portability of a tablet . The S...
While the sum of the incremental improvements that Microsoft has made on the Surface Pro 2 is far greater than each individual part, the Surface Pro 2 continues to be a machine of compromises. You'll likely be able to find a better Ultrabook experience ou...
