  • No NFC
  • No GPS

  • Bottom Line
  • The Microsoft Surface with Windows RT bridges the distance between tablet and laptop for many users

  • Многие говорят, что планшет Microsoft Surface с новой ОС Windows RT является «сырым продуктом», недоработанным и незаконченным. Причем недостатки явно видны как в самом устройстве, так и в ОС, которая в нем предустановлена. Возможно, так оно и есть. При...

  • В общем, к концу повествования ярость моя постепенно иссякла. Впечатление от устройства у меня все-таки осталось двоякое. Очень бы хотелось, чтобы Microsoft сделала все как надо, но в погоне за аудиторией, не желая упустить момент, компания поспешила и ...

  • Abstract:  До сегодняшних дней мы использовали планшеты преимущественно с одной целью: потребление контента. Мы просматривали сайты, слушали музыку, смотрели видео и играли в игры. Конечно, многие использовали и более специализированные приложения, начиная от обучаю...

  • Убийцей iPad планшет от Microsoft не станет. Устройство симпатичное, но странное. В некоторых сценариях Surface очень неплох, это правда. Однако таковых мало. Тут полноценный офис, отличная многозадачность, знакомый файловый менеджер и просто стильный пр...

  • Я всегда относился к недоработкам в новых операционных системах Microsoft философски. И даже заклейменную всеми «Висту» не только встретил благожелательно, но и до сих пор использую на домашнем компьютере. И браузер у меня основной, вы не поверите, Intern...

  • отсутствие приложений, неудобный интерфейс для работы пальцами, это дорогая, бесполезная и бессмысленная во всех отношениях игрушка
  • О Windows на планшетах в 2012 году можно забыть, как о страшном кошмарном сне. У Microsoft больше нет никакого кредита доверия. Ее продукты сделаны как машина времени. Они выглядят так же смешно, как будто созданы людьми, никогда не жившими в 2012 году, к...

  • Основное достоинство новинки – это легкость перевоплощения из планшета в ультрабук при подключении клавиатуры. Скорее всего, именно эта фишка и будет привлекать потенциальных покупателей планшетов от Microsoft. Среди других плюсов стоит выделить качествен...
