Can't wait to get my Pro 3. Been using Pro 1 since it came out. The only reason it hasn't completely replace my desktop is with some work I just need more screen space. The extra screen space is the number one reason I'll be buying this. The second reason is the new kickstand. The Pro 1 kickstand with the one position just isn't flexible enough. Those who say it's not worth the money just don't get it. I've replace tablets, my laptop, and 90% of time my desktop at work with the Pro 1. I've never taxed the CPU and it performs excellent all times. Blue / Green screen of death? It's never once happened on my surface pro. In fact the Pro 1 has been the most reliable computers I've ever owned. I thought the keyboard would break in no time. I was very wrong. I take notes at work everyday and click and unclick the keyboard on and off many times a day. never a problem. Great innovative product and NO other device can do what the Surface Pro can do still. When I get my Pro 3 I'll be turning off my desktop for good and for the price of one device I'll replace everything except my phone. And why do people complain about the price when an iPad Air is crazy expensive and all you can do is consume with it, can't create anything good very efficiently. I guess Apple fans will never change.

I think I'm going to get one. I had the 2nd Gen RT version, but I returned it due a malfunction. I heard about the Pro 3 and decided to wait for it. Might pick one up today.

[@TheLunarVaux]

Could you do a comparison between this and your Vaio Duo 13?

[@jimmyjamesraynor6180]

How does 1 do a full system restore? Without a bootable USB stick. Pls advice. Great unboxing btw.

[@Apple4Android]

Can't wait for the digitally digested review....10/10

[@ps121he4]

Love your review! Are there any other glitches? (After the latest update) Thanks!

[@PocketPcsvs]

@Vaughn Felix Its a laptop with core i series proc , ram and ssd . Not just a tablet ..

[@rgvhehrbewhjpwsefouhweh9366]

can you do a head2head with the galaxy 12.2?

[@YoungShyne123]

Why do people complain about the price. This is an ultra book that can be a tablet. I've seen people spend over 600 to 700 for an iPad that basically is the same product as the ipod touch. I think oem are the reason why people expect cheap pc. If you want a surface pro for cheap you can't expect Microsoft to make a solid product.

[@jimmyjamesraynor6180]

Hmmmmm digested review

[@SebastianSkadisson]

Was the i7 available for Surface Pro 2 also? Because you said we didn't get a new processor for Surface Pro 3 and i can preorder a i7 version of Surface Pro 3 in germany.

[@jetgold]

Yes they have the i7 and i5 version for purchase, I use the pro 2 right now I have a i7 pro 3 on order.

[@joshb2000jb]

No, the surface pro 2 only had an i5 version.

[@91722854]

only thing that bothers me is that the ntrig pen requires battery and the medium level keyboard travel but it's perfect switch for people who uses regular ultrabook, not that good for people who uses traditional laptop! I still really like this piece of device!

[@percyawilliamsjr967]

I like your video

[@KJones1975]

I want one so bad, but it's hard to justify spending that much (especially since I just bought a Surface 2 RT in November). It should be capable of using a wireless display since the Surface 2 can (using Miracast).

[@YoungShyne123]

sell the rt version

[@KJones1975]

I'm thinking about it, but even if I got $400 for it I'd still need another $1000+ for the i5 SP3 and a keyboard.

[@YoungShyne123]

KJones1975 save up , i think the surface pro 3 value won't decrease since the hardware is a 10

[@austinray464]

When does this come out or is it already out

[@jec112203]

i5 version has been out for about a month and the i3 and i7 versions are shipping now! WOO!

[@pro-gradetech9155]

Is it worth it today?

[@GameTerminal]

I want one, but damn that price.

[@nowmowcow]

I'm not sure what the big deal with the reduction of weight is. I understand how it is nice, but I feel if that is the biggest change it certainly doesn't warrant that kind of money. I got my 256 GB surface pro 2 very recently, although the pro 3 still wasn't out yet, but the point is 256 GB SP2= roughly 1100 bucks, 64 GB SP3= roughly 800, I am a big guy but I feel I could be two feet tall and still would rather carry around the pro2 then pay for more portability but not storage or even processing power. Maybe the new cameras are like super amazing but I don't use my surface pro to take pictures, and that is because of the size of it not the weight and the new one is even bigger so yeah, maybe the SP4 will be worth looking into :).

[@nowmowcow]

***** Ya that is a good point. From what I can tell though, there is something very strange about the way SP3 handles certain tasks. I have heard multiple occasions of SP3 just flat-out bugging, on things that the SP2 eats for breakfast. The most common task of which is launching and playing "League of Legends" online game. Oh and if the resolution on the 3 is actually better...like in any way shape or form, then it was completely over my head. I still can't for the life of me tell any difference when staring at a real-life side-by-side.

[@steveho5688]

do i need anti viruses software for it?

[@joshb2000jb]

No, all windows 8.1 machines come with windows defender, which is like microsoft security essentials with a different name, hoped this helped :)

[@daniehej]

Yes, you will need antivirus, this is not Windows RT, but as Joshua has pointed out, the built in Windows Defender works decently and should protect you from most viruses.

[@biolinkstudios]

Do not, I repeat download a Anti viruses software.. they are just power hungry Software's that are not needed

[@jec112203]

I agree with these previous posters, you need antivirus, but Windows 8.1 already has Windows defender, which still works surprisingly well. I would suggest, however, to get a complimentary program to help Windows Defender out a little - Its called MalwareBytes and is the leader in real-time Anti-Malware protection. If you get the premium version you have real-time website protection which will protect you from Phishing and just plain old malicious websites. MalwareBytes has a "blacklist" and if you are ever directed toward one of these websites, MalwareBytes will close the connection. Saved me a bunch of times when visiting those "watch TV shows on the Internet" websites...shady people they are.

[@biolinkstudios]

jec112203 NO need for it Malware just a waste of power and here you go watchseries.lt

[@petey1234567ful]

I think i will buy the i7 even though i just use facebook

[@biolinkstudios]

you might use it for something else :) that's the point of getting lots of power just in case

[@gerzhwin]

My comment: Exactly.

[@PradeebanKalaivarnan]

Use fix focus!! ....zzz

[@rebekahwheland]

and someone like me that is getting there first laptop

[@DarionPlayzMineCraftVlogs]

lpl sadly it's not the best laptop at the moment

[@rebekahwheland]

+Foxx Playz Gamez & More I know I just really want it ok

[@rebekahwheland]

+Foxx Playz Gamez & More and I'm getting a I7 core + I'm not going to push too much on it

[@DarionPlayzMineCraftVlogs]

Lol that's ok, the surface 4 is coming out in october if u can wistand the wait! If it's to much I'm just gonna go with the surface 3

[@rebekahwheland]

+Foxx Playz Gamez & More you mean pro 4

[@realvaughnfelix]

The price is horribly going to fail this. The world isn't ready for a $1200 tablet, and may never be. Oh and just try using this as a laptop and touch screen, it just doesn't make sense, but let's see what Apple will do to change this:)

[@tbm7301]

The type cover is a rip-off

[@iducatifan1]

God what a boring voice, but good details

[@hamidgghader]

who really buys this crap? Microsoft goes nowhere in tablet/mobile...

[@Apple4Android]

Can't wait for the digitally digested review....10/10
