The Surface is instantly more charming than any Windows device thATT#39
S come before it. It's nearly the perfect size
And the form is almost beyond reproach. If you want a tablet
Use it like a tablet. If you want a laptop
Use it like a laptop. Both modes
Good interface
Powerful processor
Decent keyboard
Impressive camera

We're not there yet. Surface is a fantastic promise
And holds fantastic potential. But while potential is worth your attention
It's not worth your paycheck. Surface RT gets so many things right
And pulls so many good things together into one package. B
Abstract: Smartphone and tablet users tend to fall into two categories: those who are diehard Apple fans and seemingly willing to pay any price for its fashionable hardware, and those who prefer the semi-open approach of Google's Android operating system and the le...
Sturdy build, tough kickstand, Windows apps, terrific keyboard covers, fullsize USB port, good battery life,
Not cheap, desktop takes some getting used to, not enough apps
If you're in love with your iPad, the Microsoft Surface is unlikely to win you over. But if you're still not sure about Android, or a Windows user who wants a tablet that will marry up seamlessly with your desktop and offer a quick, capable and, yes, f...

Abstract: A curiously unfocused tablet, but full of potential E ven as I sit down to write this review, I still have no idea what market the Surface is aimed at.Its advertising campaign suggests its a hip, indie-kid cool device that will change the way you use a t...
Abstract: This has been a big year for tablets, with both Google and Microsoft looking to take a slice of Apple's pie releasing their first ever own-brand devices. However, not resting on its laurels, Apple's come out swinging, releasing what we think is its bes...
As tech journalists, the Surface Pro is the winner for us. The full HD screen, extra storage, laptop-like spec and ability to install any Windows software gives it the edge. ...
Abstract: The Surface is a touchscreen tablet computer made by Microsoft, better known for making software, and is the company's first computer aside from the Xbox 360 games console. Uniquely, all but the cheapest Surface model come with a screen cover that clev...
Remarkably good finish, Device and OS are generally responsive, Battery life / Fast charging, Touch Cover with keyboard is surprisingly effective, MS Office comes preloaded
Screen definition / Very new OS (lack of content), Modern UI control gestures aren't always that intuitive, Weighty OS / Mains charging only, Lowgrade camera and webcam, External media content isn't handled that sleekly
While it certainly boasts an exceptional-quality finish, the Microsoft Surface RT suffers from the classic symptoms of being a flagship product for a newly born OS. The Windows Store has nowhere near enough apps yet and the RT OS seems like it's still fin...
Abstract: The age-old battle of Microsoft vs Apple has been given a new lease of life, this time in the form of tablet PCs . The Microsoft Surface RT and Apple iPad are two of the most sought after tablets on the market, so naturally we wanted to see which one is b...
Whether the Surface just becomes a proof of concept type piece of hardware and we were all just beta testers will remain to be seen. Another concern about the Surface arises when you look at the upcoming hardware for Win RT from the likes of Samsung, Acer...
Well built,Distinctive design,Hybrid functionality, Decent overall performance and battery
Interface controls are awful, Meagre app ecosystem, Slow app load speed, Camera poor compared to competitors
We have to say the Surface RT is something of a failure in our view.The problem is not so much in its inability to achieve what Microsoft set out to, but more the way in which it does it.It has refinement in spades, but the areas where this is most import...
