There's nothing wrong with the Surface 2, and there's a lot that is very right about it. But it's not a full Windows device, despite appearances. Given that, it's a well put together and stylish Windows consumption device, a tablet with some unique and co...

The Surface 2 left a very good impression, with one exception. The conclusion can be summed up in one sentence: it's a very complete and quality tablet if you will only use MS Office, but Windows RT remains too limited. The new Surface RT has been impr...

Great new high resolution display, Faster performance thanks to Tegra 4 CPU, All, day battery lasts almost 15 hours, Improved kickstand
Keyboard covers sold separately, Windows RT 8.1 is still limited
The Microsoft Surface 2's performance, the software, pricing, indeed the whole package represents a big step up from the original Surface RT. If this was the public's first taste of Windows RT, the Surface could have performed much better than the origin...

Abstract: With unsold stock of the Surface RT burning a billion-dollar hole in Microsoft's finances, the company needs to make amends. Enter the new Surface Pro 2 and Surface 2 models, which boost the specifications, extend battery life and give Microsoft a fightin...
Great design and feel, Magnetic Type Cover rocks, Kickstand works great and has two angles, Improved Start screen and Windows Store
Using the destktop is necessary, but not fun at all, Heavy for its class, Type Cover is expensive ($130), Windows Store app selection is still bad

Gorgeous 1080p screen, Improved kickstand, excellent range of keyboards, Tegra 4 + Windows 8.1 = usable as an ad-hoc laptop
Restricted to Windows RT apps, Gets expensive with a Touch/Type Cover
VERDICT The Surface 2 is impressive. It's fast enough for most jobs. The screen's great, and so is the case that surrounds it. It's now a very usable ad hoc laptop, thanks to the two-step kickstand and the fixes in Windows 8.1. There are even enough apps ...

Great screen, Outlook now on board and works, microSD expansion, decent battery life, good prospect for business users, a step up compared to the original, Marketplace will continue to grow
Windows RT a confused experience, naming convention is odd, lacks app support of rivals, odd aspect ratio for a tablet, need to add a keyboard for best experience as virtual keys obscure view, no mobile connectivity
Surface 2 might be thinner, lighter and faster than before - but only just on all counts. And as much as those three words might read well on page, the latest Microsoft offering is, above all, a confusing prospect. Why? Because it's not full Window...
