The editors didn't like

  • I'm not a fan of tablet cameras (seriously
  • Shoot your vacation photos with something better) and the Surface 3's shooter is mediocre at best. Medium-brightness scenes photograph okay
  • But the sensor just falls flat on bright colors and surfaces. Meh
  • The
  • Intel Atom x7 not up for all tasks
  • Kickstand only has two positions
  • Updating experience was horrific
  • A bit heavy and thick for a tablet
  • Complete package with Type Cover comparatively expensive
  • Use on the lap not really convenient
  • No maintainability/upgradeability
  • Bottleneck eMMC storage solution
  • Very long charging times
  • Atom is fast enough
  • But still not really fast
  • Subpar Storage performance
  • Pricey with extras
  • Type Cover's cramped trackpad
  • Charging takes really long
  • WiFi speeds were slower than expected

  • Trading down to a low-power processor means this isn't a full-time PC. The clever keyboard case is still sold separately
  • And costs a lot compared to the base hardware. The kickstand has only three preset angles
  • $499 advertised price is currently just for the tablet
  • Battery life is actually less than the Surface Pro 3
  • Limited to Microsoft Office
  • Web browsing
  • Some basic games and apps
  • It's Intel Atom
  • So it's not nearly as fast as an Intel Core i machine like Surface Pro 3. Kickstand loses the Pro model's infinite positions
  • Pricey
  • Plastic construction
  • No angle adjustment
  • Limited options for monitor and audio connections
  • Lock slot only secures the dock itself
  • Not the tablet
  • Speakers or headphones required for audio
  • Still heavy as a tablet
  • $499 base model has only 2GB of RAM
  • 64GB storage
  • Total with 4GB RAM
  • Keyboard
  • And stylus is $779
  • Awkward lap experience
  • Slow storage
  • Keyboard not included
  • Type Cover is an essential accessory
  • Heavy for handheld use
  • Weak on-screen keyboard
  • Type Cover and Surface Pen sold separately
  • Atom processor can't compete with Intel Core CPUs
  • Power connector is loose and bulky
  • Built-in kickstand offers limited adjustability
  • Still out of many people's price range. Slightly underpowered for real laptop work. Windows still isn't a touchfriendly operating system. Tweener size is too big for tablets and too small for laptops
  • Awkward hardware for laptop use with small trackpad
  • Performance isn't as good as similarly priced laptops
  • Weak touch apps for tablet use
  • Some comfort issues
  • Uncompetitive battery life
  • Lacking support for AptX
  • AAC
  • Or LDAC for higher-quality sound
  • Sound lacks refinement and treble energy
  • Worldclass build and design
  • Fullsized USB and kickstand prove invaluable for productivity
  • Decent performance
  • All things considered
  • Excellent display
  • Base unit's 2GB of RAM low for a device in this class
  • Win 8.1 and core apps take up too much space
  • Can be sluggish with heavier operations
  • 64GB variant offers very little free space
  • Speakers sound flat
  • Camera performs poorly under low light
  • Exceptionally long charging time
  • Typing on your lap
  • Type cover is pricey
  • Pen not included
  • Type Cover is not included and is sold as an expensive (yet musthave) $130 accessory. Not great as a laptop. Battery life is somewhat disappointing.
  • Keyboard is another $130
  • Entry model has only 2GB RAM
  • Not powerful enough for anything beyond basic computing
  • Relatively loud coil whine
  • Difficult-to-open case gets in the way of repairs and upgrades
  • Poor I/O
  • Throttling - also during graphics loads
  • High premium for the i7

  • Épaisse et lourde, pour une tablette, Relativement chère si l'on ajoute le prix du clavier Type Cover, L'utilisation sur les genoux n'est pas très confortable, Impossible à entretenir ou mettre à niveau, La lenteur du support de stockage eMMC choisi limite les performances, Très longue à charger

  • Conception et finition toujours réussies, Enfin une Surface non Pro en Intel, Ratio d'écran plus équilibré, Usage confortable dans les 2 modes
  • Prix de la Type Cover excessif, Seulement 2 Go sur la version de base, Affichage HiDPI encore peu pris en charge, Support de stockage indigne
  • On dit souvent qu'il faut plusieurs tentatives à Microsoft afin de réussir ses nouveaux produits. Avec Surface, il aura donc fallu attendre la troisième génération pour avoir enfin deux tablettes cohérentes, puissantes, et agréables à utiliser.La Surface...

  • design, finition, version complète de Windows, véritable petit PC avec le clavier Type Cover.
  • puissance du processeur, clavier Type Cover toujours proposé en option
  • Avec la Surface 3, Microsoft améliore nettement sa copie en dotant sa tablette d'une version "complète" de Windows. Finition et ergonomie sont au rendez-vous. Dommage que la puissance le soit un peu moins et le clavier toujours absent....

  • Insomma mi è proprio piaciuto tanto questo Surface. Il prezzo? Bè, adeguato alle finiture. Si, è caro, ma le cose belle e funzionali si pagano. La mia configurazione 1.499 euro. E già sono tanti. Se volete un i7 con 512 di SSD addirittura 2.499 euro! Trop...

  • A volte noi esperti di tecnologia siamo un po' troppo ossessionati dalla velocità di clock e dalle prove di trasferimento file. Per la maggior parte delle persone Surface 3 è abbastanza veloce e anche di più. Il problema maggiore che ho rilevato nell'uso...

  • Surface 3 è maturo e più versatile della concorrenza. Continua ad essere uno dei tablet più pregiati e meglio costruiti sul mercato, al tempo stesso sia facilmente riconoscibile sia indubbiamente gradevole. Nel corso della recensione abbiamo visto come Mi...
