After years of struggling trying to catch up with industry leaders, Microsoft comes back with a bang with its Surface Pro, which analysts say is the firm’s boldest move yet in the tablet market.
The Surface Pro, which is expected to become available in the UK on May 23rd for £720, is modern, slick, fast, powerful, and glossy. However, compared to its predecessor, Surface RT, Microsoft’s newest tablet is 0.5 heavier. On the plus side, it gives users a laptop feel for professional tasks. It also comes with microSD card slot.
Pro, which uses 3rd Generation Intel Core i5 Processor, boots up quickly. It comes with 4GB of RAM and a full-size USB 3.0 port for quick transfers. Storage space available ranges from 128GB down to 64GB. It also comes with front and rear-facing cameras.
As for the battery life, it can last 4-5 hours if users are playing games, listening to music, and watching movies. During this time, the tablet can generate quite a bit of heat. The battery can be charged quickly though in just a couple of hours.
As for screen, it is very clear and crisp giving users great wonderful experience when reading, playing games, or watching movies.
