The editors didn't like
The battery life is disappointing
And more ports would be nice. The 64GB model barely has any free storage. It costs as much as a regular laptop
Especially because the cool keyboard cover isn't included by default
Significant
Inescapable compromise inherent in form factor
Mediocre battery life for a notebook
Terrible for a tablet
Frustrating power connector
Heavy
Shorter battery life than RT
No home for the pen
Kickstand can be awkward
A heavy tablet
Falls over when used in a moving environment
Bad battery life

A very decent laptop replacement, and an okay tablet, the Surface Pro 3 is undeniably impressive. If you need a single device to do everything we can't think of any better device. And when you consider the cost of buying a discrete laptop, tablet and desk...
