No more Windows RT, Thinnest and lightest Surface to date, Attractive screen, Premium look and feel
Still heavy as a tablet, $499 base model has only 2GB of RAM, 64GB storage, Total with 4GB RAM, keyboard, and stylus is $779
Microsoft's Surface 3 finally ditches Windows RT, while making other welcome refinements. At $499, it's a fine high-end tablet. But add $130 for the Type Cover and $100 for a reasonable amount of RAM and storage, and the slate becomes a very expensive At...
Thin and lightweight design, Brilliant screen, Runs all Windows apps
Intel Atom x7 not up for all tasks, Kickstand only has two positions, Updating experience was horrific

Lovely, clean design. Type Cover is a really smart, useful accessory. It runs full Windows! It really can replace both your laptop and your tablet
Still out of many people's price range. Slightly underpowered for real laptop work. Windows still isn't a touchfriendly operating system. Tweener size is too big for tablets and too small for laptops
The lightest Surface yet, Extremely versatile as both a tablet and laptop, Runs all Windows software, Stylus support is a nice bonus
Keyboard is another $130, Entry model has only 2GB RAM, Not powerful enough for anything beyond basic computing
Microsoft's Surface 3 is the purest distillation of its hybrid tablet/laptop concept yet. It packs in a healthy amount of functionality for its $499 price, though be ready to pay another $130 for its keyboard....

Full version of Windows, 3:2 aspect ratio improves tablet use, Bright and colorful display
Awkward hardware for laptop use with small trackpad, Performance isn't as good as similarly priced laptops, Weak touch apps for tablet use

The new Surface 3 costs less than the Pro version, but trickles down much of the design and materials of its more expensive sibling. This budget model finally runs the full version of Windows. The keyboard cover remains the best way to transform a slate i
Trading down to a low-power processor means this isn't a full-time PC. The clever keyboard case is still sold separately, and costs a lot compared to the base hardware. The kickstand has only three preset angles
The budget-priced Surface 3 is a solid tablet that finally runs the real version of Windows, but it would be a much better value if the must-have keyboard cover was included....

Lightweight, Full HD display with touch and pen support, New Intel Atom x7 processor offers better performance than other Atom-based competitors, Long battery life in our tests, Better-than-average speakers and webcam, Includes a full version of Windows 8
Type Cover and Surface Pen sold separately, Atom processor can't compete with Intel Core CPUs, Power connector is loose and bulky, Built-in kickstand offers limited adjustability
The Surface 3 offers a welcome price break from the pricey Microsoft Surface Pro 3, and it's well built, offers a full version of Windows, and boasts impressive battery life. But in a crowded field, a solid tablet that relies heavily on expensive accessor...

The tablet's buttons are in the perfect locations—the Windows key is on the right side, matching the location of Windows 8's “charms” bar, and the power and volume buttons are on the top edge. They're easily accessible when the tablet is being used as a “
I'm not a fan of tablet cameras (seriously, shoot your vacation photos with something better) and the Surface 3's shooter is mediocre at best. Medium-brightness scenes photograph okay, but the sensor just falls flat on bright colors and surfaces. Meh, The
Do you have $500 burning a hole in your pocket? Do you ache for a surprisingly capable Windows tablet? Don’t buy it. What? Yes, you heard me right. But if you have $600 burning a hole in your pocket… then maybe. Maybe buy it.Let me be clear: The Surface 3...
