The editors liked
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
Windows RT is gone (woohoo!)

The editors didn't like
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
Not a lot of ports
Just like the Surface Pro 3
Feels like it should be better priced
Doesn't come with the Surface Pen
Keyboard is optional
And brings the price up by a good $150
No more magnets on the side
Small trackpad is frustrating
Not enough grunt
Only 2GB of RAM in base model
Small touch-optimised app ecosystem
Accessories are expensive
Keyboard
Storage
Price
Kickstand
Could use more ports
Rysen processor struggles with high-end applications
Expensive for what it is
Accessories aren't bundled
Bad for games
Expensive compared to its competition
MicroUSB charging is slow without the provided brick

An Excellent Top Tier DisplayBased on our extensive Lab tests and measurements on the display for the Surface 3, Microsoft has produced an excellent high performance display for Windows. In fact, the Surface 3 has one of the very best and most accurate di...
The weight and portability of Surface 3 shouldn't be understated. During the review period, there were many times when I had the opportunity to throw either the Surface 3 or the Surface Pro 3 it was a tough choice. It was incredibly inviting to take the S...
Abstract: I t was a long journey for Microsoft to get to this product. You could look at it as the next-gen successor to the Surface RT, and indeed it is. The smaller form factor of previous RT machines was appealing, and sat well with the idea of a transformable t...

Abstract: So it's perhaps not the best time for Microsoft to be launching this, its third price-conscious Surface tablet, and the official the successor to the Surface RT and Surface 2. If any tablet is going to buck that downward trend, however, the Surface 3 mig...

Abstract: Let's take a moment to mark the passing of Windows RT. As the Surface 2 – Windows RT's swansong – trudges to an early grave, haunted by the spectre of embarrassing sales figures, the Surface 3 is tasked with getting Microsoft's Surface family back on trac...
