Made me enjoy Windows RT
Yes
You can use it as your only computer. I would never have made that claim about an iPad or Android tablet. But if you only need to live in Microsoft Office and the web and email
And use your computer for media consumption
You'll do great with this.

The editors didn't like
The tablet has a mediocre battery life
Performance is hit or miss
Weak ecosystem
Buggy software
Doesn't live up to hybrid promise
The TouchCover keyboard's keys could be a little more distinguishable
The camera could have a higher resolution
And some may find the price a little on the steep side
Touch Cover and Type Cover alike have poor touchpads
No NFC
No GPS
No 3G or 4G
There's no escaping that 1366×768 is a low resolution
$499 unit lacks the all-important Touch Cover
For $599
The Asus VivoTab RT gives you a package that's more versatil
Limited app selection
Mediocre screen resolution
Desktop UI not finger friendly
RT UI too dumbed down in parts
Poor stills camera
Can't run standard Windows programs
App selection is very limited compared to other ecosystems
Expensive
The tablet's performance can be sluggish
Its Windows Store is lacking
Metro takes getting used to
And the Desktop interface feels clunky and useless
Few high-quality apps available for now
Poor-quality cameras
Sluggish and unresponsive at times
Display isn't world-class
Windows RT is the hobbled alternative to Windows 8
Relatively Few Apps in Windows Store
Questionable Pricing
Faces stiff competition
Slow to initially launch apps
Bottom Line
The Microsoft Surface with Windows RT bridges the distance between tablet and laptop for many users
Particularly if you use the Web or Microsoft Office constantly. The Surface has very good hardware and some innovative design
But Microsoft
Weak app selection on launch
Aspects of the UI are not intuitive
Tegra 3 processor is at its limit in this application
Touch Cover is cool
But not particularly functional
Not as capable as Windows 8
Low display resolution
Problems with Touch Cover
Small backfacing camera resolution
Slow and unstable Windows Mail
Amount of currently available applications
Windows RT is a broken concept
Laggy performance
No cellular data option
Keyboard covers are way overpriced
Capacitive home button is prone to accidental presses
Purchasing
The Surface RT is priced similarly to other high-end 10″ tablets
Like the
Few "Metro style" apps available
No 3G connectivity
Performance & battery life
In the absence of crossplatform benchmarks for comparing Windows RT to iOS and Android devices
We're left with browser benchmarks to give some indication of comparative performance. The picture is mixed
With the Surface showi
Legacy desktop is slow and difficult to navigate with touch
Currently lacking solid app selection
Lacking a good tutorial
Price is too high
Programs can be slow to load. No 3G or LTE? But I want my internet everywhere! If anything
Touch Cover is too sensitive. You'll find a better selection of apps at your local TGI Friday's
Abstract: Windows surfaceの米国版を触らせてもらいました。OSは日本語になってますこのWindows8タブレット、触れてみた最初の感想は「重いw」という感じです。(重量的に)とりあえず、触ってる様子をyoutubeに動画でアップしてます。WindowsのマークがiPadなんかでいうところのホームボタンみたいな役割。パソコン版のWindows8と何ら変わりないOSのインターフェイスです。ちょいレビューですが、タッチ操作はめちゃスムーズです。iPad慣れしてる人でもスムーズに感じるくらいグラフィックもなめ...
Abstract: 꾸준하게 개인적으로 주장하는 바이기도 하지만 그간 나왔던 태블릿PC는 엄밀하게 말하자면 ‘태블릿'이라고 말할 수 있다. PC에 가까운 모델이야말로 ‘태블릿PC'라 부를 수 있다. 예를 들면 최근 나오는 컨버터블 제품이 '태블릿PC‘로 기존 아이패드나 갤럭시탭 등은 '태블릿‘이라고 불러야겠다.근거는 여러 가지가 있겠으나 윈도8이라는 새로운 운영체제(OS)가 탄생하면서 더 확고해졌다. 태블릿 시장의 문을 연 애플 아이패드는 PC와 비슷하지만 모바일 운영체...
Abstract: 윈도우 OS로 컴퓨터 세상을 좌지우지 하던 마이크로소프트가 스마트폰 시대로 넘어가면서 제자리를 못 찾는 기색이 역력하다. 그렇게 자신하던 윈도우8은 사용자들에게 외면 받고 야심차게 내놓은 태블릿PC 서피스 시리즈 또한 태블릿PC의 지존이라 할 수 있는 애플 아이패드 발목 잡기엔 역부족인 듯한 인상이다. 특히, 휴대성이 우선인 태블릿PC의 장점을 살리기 위한 선택이었던 ARM계열 테그라3 CPU 탑재 서피스RT를 두고는 오피스 머신이라는 악평이 뒤따른다....
Abstract: 서피스RT 리뷰] 윈도우8 태블릿PC MS 서피스RT(Surface)를 만나다!마이크로소프트(이하 MS) 태블릿PC인 서피스RT 그리고 서피스Pro가 국내에도 출시됐습니다. 지난 22일(수요일) 강남역 M Stage ‘서피스 팝업존'에서 열린 서피스 신제품 발표회에 참석해서 두 모델을 직접 살펴보고 왔습니다. 그리고 1주일 정도 MS 서피스RT를 사용해 볼 기회를 얻어 잠깐 체험을 하게 되었습니다.아마 많은 분들이 ...
Abstract: 어제 MS 뉴오피스 블로거 간담회에 참석했습니다.해당 간담회에서는 뉴오피스와 윈도우8에 대해 각 파트 담당자분들께 자세한 설명을 들을 수 있었는데요.본업이 모바일 관련 블로거라 그런지 제사(?)보다 젯밥에 더 눈이 갔습니다. 그 젯밥은 바로 MS 서피스입니다.당일 서피스RT와 서피스 프로를 사용해볼 수 있었는데요. 서피스RT와 프로의 궁극적인 차이는 OS와 OS를 받쳐주는 하드웨어의 차이였습니다.서피스RT의 경우 번들로 제공하는 뉴오피스와 윈도우스토어에...
Abstract: 마이크로소프트(MS)가 제작한 ‘서피스'는 태블릿PC다. 당연한 얘기겠지만 자세히 살펴보면 전작들과 획을 긋는 포인트가 있다.그간 나왔던 태블릿PC는 엄밀하게 말하자면 ‘태블릿'이다. PC에 가까운 모델이야말로 ‘태블릿PC'라 부를 수 있다. 예를 들면 스마트폰과 태블릿의 중간 기점에 놓여있는 '패블릿(Phablet)‘을 들 수 있다. 패블릿은 폰(Phone)과 태블릿(Tablet)의 합성어다. 말 그대로 스마트폰과 동일한 성능을 구현하면서도 크기는 태...
Abstract: 마이크로소프트 서피스 RT 마이크로소프트는 사실 스마트폰과 태블릿 시장에서의 영향력이 크지는 않다. PC 시장에서 윈도우가 발휘했던 힘은 말 그대로 무지막지 했지만, 스마트폰이라는 전혀 다른 인터페이스 환경이 필요했던 분야에서는 '모바일에서도 컴퓨터처럼 모든 것을 동일하게' 한다는 모토 자체가 실패적이었다. 사람들은 간편하게 사용할 수 있는 스마트폰과 태블릿에 열광했으며, MS는 다소 주춤할 수 밖에 없었을 것이다. 애플과 삼성으로 거의 양분화 되다...
Abstract: นอกจากการเปิดตัวระบบปฏิบัติการ Windows 8 และ Windows RT ที่เป็นก้าวแรกของไมโครซอฟท์ (Microsoft) สู่ตลาดอุปกรณ์พกพาและอุปกรณ์ที่ใช้หน้าจอระบบสัมผัสแล้ว Microsoft ยังถือโอกาสเปิดตัว Microsoft Surface ซึ่งนับว่าเป็นฮาร์ดแวร์ตัวแรกจากค่าย Microsoft เลยทีเดียว...
