Excellent Device!
I've been waiting for an affordable Windows tablet that was worth my hard earned money... the Surface 3 is an excellent device. The build quality is flawless, its silent (no fans), doesn't really get hot, plays 1080p moves great, excellent battery life, beautiful screen and very responsive. It runs my Office 365, Cisco VPN, RDP, KeePass, Kaspersky Total Security, DropBox, OneDrive, WireShark, Acrylic WiFi, various Windows Metro apps, etc. without any issues. I also installed FireFox and Chrome, no problems installing or running the browsers.I don't have my keyboard yet, waiting a bit before buying it, but do have the pen. I opted to buy the pen that comes with the Surface Pro 3, I'm just use to it and got a good deal on it.How can I attest to all this... well, I purchased it to replace my laptop on trips. 3 days after it arrived, I was off to the west coast. This consisted of a total travel time of approximately 8 hours, with a 1.5 lay over in Atlanta, on my way to beautiful Newport Beach, California. I made sure I had everything I needed installed and ran it through some testing with the factory power settings... everything came back with solid numbers. I made sure to fully charge it before leaving and never shut it off... placed it on my backpack and off to the airport I went.On my first flight (2 hours), I watched one movie and did a little work. At the Atlanta airport, I verified my reservations, checked my email and did some surfing while waiting for my connecting flight. On my second flight (4.5 hours), I watched two more movies and surfed a bit to look up some restaurants to go to once I arrived in Cali (Yelp, Google Maps, Bing Maps, etc)... was saving my appetite for some good Asian food.I got to John Wayne Airport, in beautiful California, with approximately 16% battery remaining! I am very impressed with it so far! Fits perfectly on that tiny airline table and the sound through my Sennheiser HD 439 Headphones was excellent!****05/30/2015 UPDATE****I had settled for the Elsse Premium Folio Case when I purchased my Surface 3, there wasn't much available at the time. The quality of he Elsse is sub-par, the tablet doesn't fit snug and the case doesn't protect the corners of the tablet at all. Also, the on-screen keyboard is pretty good but, even with the pen, I really need a keyboard especially for work.Once I got back from my vacation, I knew I had to invest a little bit more so the research began. I ended up ordering the Microsoft Surface 3 Type Cover and the Fintie Premium PU Leather Case. So far I've received the Fintie Case, should have my Type Cover on Monday. This case has excellent build quality... my tablet fits nice and snug plus the case incorporates some corner protection which is what I wanted.****06/01/2015 UPDATE****I just received my Surface 3 Type Cover today, I'm typing this review with it. It works very well, easy to type, very responsive and quite comfortable. I thought it would be a bit awkward due to the size but I was pleasantly surprise... didn't have any problems... and yes, I actually type, not peck :) The touch pad works good too. You also use it as a mouse, left & right clicking work perfectly. The keyboards keys are lighted and the brightness can be adjusted with the function keys... easy to type in total darkness.The only problem is when the tablet is in my Fintie Premium PU Leather Case, the keyboard magnets are not strong enough to work/connect in the angled position... can only use the keyboard in the flat position unless I take the Surface out of the case.
