The best of a tablet Crafted from sleek magnesium alloy with a smooth ceramic finish, Surface 3 is brilliantly portable, with an ultra-thin profile and feather-light design. The battery life of up to 10 hours ensures you can take it out all day without running out of juice, while an integrated Kickstand with 3 positions is ideal for hands-free entertainment. Atom x7 Surface 3 is powered by a quad-core Intel Atom x7 processor delivering power and energy efficiency to let you run desktop software and your favourite apps, just like on a laptop.

Bright, vibrant and full of details, the Surface 3’s screen is ideal for watching movies and editing images.

Built-in Wi-Fi that’s compatible with superfast ‘ac’ routers will let you hook up to your home network and browse the internet at your leisure. Bluetooth 4.0 LE will let you wirelessly transfer data and stream media to other Bluetooth devices without draining your battery, while a full size USB 3.0 port and micro SD card slot will let you hook your Surface up to other peripherals and storage devices. You can even connect your Surface 3 to a monitor, TV on projector by using the Mini DisplayPort and a compatible cable. See it on the big screen Not only does the Surface 3 include a Mini DisplayPort for connecting to a TV or monitor, but it is also compatible with Miracast technology to help you connect to a bigger screen with no need for extra wires.
