Abstract: Microsoft's struggles with the Surface have been well documented with poor sales of the Surface RT forcing it to write off nearly $US1 billion and slash prices in the process. But Microsoft remains determined to make inroads with the release of the new Su...

Abstract: Microsoft Surface Pro 2 is ‘THE' tablet of 2013. Quite simply no competitor has eclipsed its design, function, or features – although there are some extremely competent tablets/hybrids coming.First impressions - it is a very nice package. From its classy ...

In general, performs pretty well most of the time, Screen bright and contrasty in all angles, Kickstand makes it perfect for lap or desk use
35 second sleep/wake time where rivals are instanton, Display scaling in Windows 8.1 still quite rough, Outofthebox drivers halfbaked
The PC is dead – long live the new PCThe question of whether you should buy the Surface Pro 2 isn't a question of specs, of performance, or even battery life. The Surface Pro 2 ticks all of those boxes; especially in performance. Ultimately, it's a philo...

This device is representative of the hybrid tablet-laptop future that we want. Not only is it still freaking gorgeous to look at, it's running a fully featured operating system, packing in amazing accessories and ports for you to expand your experience. I...
Solid magnesium body, Improved kickstand, Vibrant display, Improved OS
Heavy, Chunky, Expensive, Lack of LTE

The Microsoft Surface Pro 2 is a faster, longer-battery-life version of the original model, upgraded with a current-gen Haswell processor. The keyboard cover is also improved with backlit keys, and is among the best tablet accessories ever devised
The Surface Pro 2 remains stubbornly thick and heavy compared with some sleeker competitors. The base 64GB version may leave you starved for storage, and the keyboard cover, practically required, should be included instead of sold separately
Microsoft's subtly updated Windows 8.1 tablet feels more like Surface Pro 1.5 -- improved battery life and better accessories make it a worthwhile (albeit pricey) laptop replacement, but it's still not an iPad-level category killer....
Great overall design (we love the kickstand), Full HD screen, Lots of CPU speed in a small tablet form factor, Is a great hybrid if you use Type Cover 2, Optional Power cover to improve battery life
Battery life not as good as we'd hoped, Lacks integrated full-sized HDMI and SD facilities, Wi-Fi could be better, Easily scratched
The second version of Microsoft's Surface Pro tablet offers some good enhancements, primarily to the kickstand and the available accessories. We think it's a great tablet all up, especially if you like the idea of carrying around a fully functional comput...
