My intent was to use as a tablet replacement and second computer. Use it for internet searches and reading news paper. Screen is plenty large for the paper. No expanding the screens as I did with 7" screen. Also installed photoshop Elements for some editing while traveling.

I had a few hiccups with this computer at first, but now it's coming along pretty well. It's a decent option if you want a surface, but don't want to shell out $ for it.

Bought this at a sale price of ($), a very good bargain for what you get which is great build quality, more than adequate performance, a beautiful screen, and Microsoft even let me upgrade it to Windows 10 for free. I bought it because I really don't like bringing laptops on trips or out on the field. I use a Mac at work and a great old dell laptop at home and this just fits the bill. Only 4 stars because of the usual niggles you get from Windows.

excellent price VS. performance, battery life and weight makes this the ultimate tablet for students. I highly recommend that you get the pen too. It will increase your productivity

I really enjoyed shopping on Adorama web site. However when I needed help, the people in Adorama did wonderfully in meeting my needs in a speedy way. Thank you.

Bought it for my wife and from the start she has only troubles with it. Slow gmail syncing, sleep of death, sound problems, poor battery life. Would not recommend until Microsoft solves their problems with this device and OS.

It is unusual in my experience to find a retailer than beats the pants off eBay, Amazon, and Best Buy, but Adorama did just that. I got my order in 4 days, and with bonus extras saved $

The Surface 3 is a Great Tablet. The keyboard and pen make it all the better.The 128GB with 4 GB of Ram runs very smoothly. I am not a gamer so I have no idea about that. Battery life has been excellent. The battery charge is a little slow. WiFi connects flawlessly. I would buy this again and also recommend it.

The bundle I got around Christmas may be better than the current price, but it was a no-brainer for me at the time. I got twice the RAM and onboard storage, plus a mouse and software bundle for less than $50 more than what I paid elsewhere. There are plenty of reviews elsewhere, but I'll just give one tidbit that I wish I'd known: There is two-finger scrolling with the trackpad on the keyboard/cover thing. It [works poorly] with Chrome. It is very good/smooth with the new Edge browser. If you are a Chrome addict, this may be a deal-breaker for you, honestly.

Awesome bang for the buck.

The tablet that can replace your laptop
With the integrated Kickstand, the ability to run desktop software and touch apps, and a full-size USB port, Surface 3 is a perfect mix of innovation and practicality. As thin and light as it is, you'll be amazed at all you can achieve with this device.
Intel processor
10.8" 1920 x 1280 Full HD Touchscreen
The best of a tablet
Surface 3 is built around a durable magnesium body that's incredibly light and thin, so you'll feel confident taking it anywhere. With up to 10 hours of video playback, a beautiful 10.8" display, and integrated Kickstand, Surface 3 is perfect for hands-free entertainment wherever you go.
Works like a laptop when you need it
Powered by a fast Intel processor, touch apps and Windows desktop software like iTunes and Photoshop Essentials work seamlessly. Click in a backlit keyboard (not included) to type faster than on-screen and connect easily to your accessories with the full-size USB 3.0 port.
Runs Windows & Office
With Windows 8.1, you can multitask by running two apps side by side.
Great Pen experience (Sold Separately)
With a Pen that feels like an actual pen, this is the most natural writing experience on a tablet. With one click of the Pen, a blank sheet is available for notes, even if Surface is asleep. Easily mark up presentations, sign documents, or enjoy art apps.
Amazing apps
Surface 3 comes with the apps you love like Skype, OneDrive, and Bing Smart Search already built in. There are more apps available for every aspect of our life.
