Surface Pro 3 with Type Cover at Surface event in NYC

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 unboxing (video)

Surface Pro 3 will start shipping on June 20th and to start getting familiar with the new 12-inch tablet, I published a video on YouTube that walks through the unboxing of Surface Pro 3.

The new tablet is thinner, faster and larger than its predecessor Surface Pro 2. The Pro 3 packs a choice configuration of Intel Core i3, i5, and i7, with 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB of storage, and 4GB or 8GB of RAM.

Perhaps one of the best features is that Surface Pro 3 now ships with a 12-inch 2160 x 1440 pixels screen resolution, something that Microsoft calls: “pixel free display”.

Microsoft has also changed the color of the tablet to silver instead of black, which makes the device more stylish. The new multiposition kickstand is amazing, now you can position the tablet from 0 to 150 degrees, and the new Type Cover attaches even more firmly to the device, which makes things more stable.

Are you ready to replace your tablet and laptop with one device?
