Microsoft Surface Pro 3 review: A legitimate work PC in tablet clothing

May 27, 2014

Through every iteration, Microsoft’s Surface Pro tablet has edged closer to becoming a true laptop replacement. Microsoft’s latest Surface Pro 3 takes several small steps in that direction—along with one giant, game-changing leap. Sure, you’ll still need to make a few compromises, but Surface Pro 3 can legitimately cover your notebook and tablet needs in a single package.You’ll immediately notice the larger display. The Surface Pro 2’s display measures 10.6 inches diagonally and has a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. Microsoft kicked up everything in the Surface Pro 3: The display is 38 percent bigger at 12 inches in diagonal width, and its 2160x1440-pixel resolution is breathtakingly crisp. Just as importantly, Microsoft’s shift to a 3:2 aspect ratio for the Surface Pro 3 adds 1.12 inches of vertical real estate to what already is a wider tablet. The result is a more luxurious, productive work space—and that’s key when you’re multitasking in a desktop environment.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
