There's not much difference between the Surface 2 and its predecessor. Aside from the slight colour change (it's now got a silver finish)
It's still pretty much the same as the rest of the Surface family

Same rehashed design
No LTE option
Barren Windows Store
Desktop mode
16
9 ratio not great on tablet
The Surface 2 still isn't sure what it's supposed to be. It's a tablet/laptop hybrid that wants to be both
But only partially succeeds in either. While Office is bundled
It's not a touch-optimised version
Meaning you'll have to use either the Touch or Type Covers to get work done - making it more laptop than tablet. But as it's also a Windows RT machine
You won't have access to all the legacy
Lack of apps
Windows RT still feels confused and muddled
No legacy app support
Limited developer support
No LTE
Very heavy for a device designed primarily as a tablet
Disappointing sound quality
App store is limited
Can be unwieldy
Windows RT a confused experience
Naming convention is odd
Lacks app support of rivals
Odd aspect ratio for a tablet
Need to add a keyboard for best experience as virtual keys obscure view
No mobile connectivity
Restricted to Windows RT apps
Gets expensive with a Touch/Type Cover
Not enough apps at Windows Store (not even big ones like Facebook and YouTube)
Too few games & mediocre gaming performance
Screen borders still too wide
Poor quality rear camera
Proprietary port for charging
It's lighter than the Surface RT... but st
Super expensive
Only seventh gen Intel mobile chips
Older graphics processor
No Thunderbolt 3
No HDR support
Not upgradable
No AAC support
Only fold flat
Noise cancelling and sound not quite as good as rivals
Limited apps in Windows Store
Windows RT still confusing in places
Dreadful speakers
Too few quality tablet apps
Expensive jump to 4G
The limitations of Windows RT eventually becomes the main downside
The angular nature of the Surface isn't the most ergonomic
Verbeterde kickstand, degelijke behuizing en mooie afwerking, lange accuduur, geschikt voor productief werk dankzij gratis Office RT 2013 en verbeterde touch/type cover 2
Software beperkingen: de Windows Store is gegroeid maar mist nog altijd enkele essentiële apps, desktopweergave van Windows 8 werkt op een tablet niet fijn, ten opzichte van de concurrentie is hij aan de zware kant en heeft hij een minder scherp display

Tegra 4 platformu, Full HD ekran, Güçlü pil ömrü, Başarılı performans
Ekran yansıması, 3G/4G ve NFC gibi bağlantıları yok
Microsoft Surface 2, 2 müthiş yenilikle geliyor: Nvidia Tegra 4 işlemci ve yeni Windows RT 8.1 işletim sistemi. Cihaz testimizde taşınabilirlik konusunda da çok iyi olduğunu kanıtladı. Full HD ekranıyla da bizi tatmin eden Surface 2'nin iPad'i yerinden ed...
Goed afgewerkt, Schermkwaliteit, Autonomie, Skype, Prijs
Windows RT soms verwarrend, App-aanbod
De Surface 2 is een betere tablet zijn dan de Surface RT, al blijft het fundamenteel een wat raar schepsel. Bouwkwaliteit, autonomie, schermkwaliteit... het zijn alle punten waar de Microsoft-tablet goed op scoort. Komt daarbij dat Microsoft toch ook ...
