Full Windows 8 Pro experience, Vibrant and sharp looking display, Distinctive and solid design, Useful pressure sensitive stylus, Peppy performance
Terrible camera, Battery life is less than other tablets, Not enough apps make use of the stylus

Microsoft met some resistance with its first Surface tablet, but that isn’t stopping the company from making a second attempt, this time with a full copy of Windows 8. Where the Surface RT left would-be tableteers confused with its partial app support,...

The screen is pretty, Touch Covers and Type Covers are still good typing solutions, The build quality remains first-rate, Runs Windows apps with aplomb
Runs hot, Runs loud, Runs short, The whole resolution scaling situation is unsatisfactory, Metro-style apps still lacking in breadth, number, and quality
