When All Else Fails
To buy or not to buy?
Apple & Samsung still have the tablet market cornered with plenty of cheaper plain label options also available
Other combination tablet/computers are out there
The Surface Pro does have limited battery life compared with tablets
The core i5 processor can run hot under load like playing games
The rear camera is sub-standard with poor ambient lighting but good for outdoor daylight shots
It is a touch heavier than some machines BUT
The keyboard is a masterpiece, it's a fantastically constructed machine, native apps work like a dream and it is really a very impressive tool for work, study or playing.
WH&S
Be aware of correct posture & positioning of hands when using a tablet or keyboard for extended periods of time this will avoid repetitive strains on muscles and joints
If you do intend using the device for extended periods remember to take a break and turn the brightness setting to a level that's easier on the eyes according to the ambient lighting.
Keep device away from liquids, avoid exposure to direct heat.
Don't drop the device, or transport it without protective case.
