Surface Pro 2 hard shine on the battlefield tablet

There is still quite a lot of cons for tablet Microsoft Surface Pro 2.

After a long period of time involved in mobile playground, Microsoft has not achieved many remarkable achievements to the Windows Phone platform and Surface tablet. Last night, the giant software industry continues to launch two new versions of the Surface with writing ambitions to build the road that has not been his strong array of the most fiercely competitive tech world .

Definitely bigger concern for Surface Pro 2 is the ability to run full applications of the traditional Windows environment, advantages over the software stack from Windows RT Surface. Despite this success may not come easily so even if Microsoft did not at least try when users become more demanding.

Metro UI applications needy

First and foremost is the software ecosystem, an important factor for the success or failure of a platform. Although last night origin Redmond giant has boldly declared that the amount of software Metro touch interface for Windows has increased from 10,000 up to 100,000 applications, but this number is too small compared to the 400,000 uses for the iPad or equivalent statistics from Play Store. Not only the quantity, the shortage is happening in nature when Windows Store can not get the necessary applications to mainstream users as Gmail, Google Maps or Facebook. Although the next time Facebook and Flipboard appears that much but certainly not enough to improve the quality of the app store Windows Metro UI.   

Instead of paying attention to its application store ecosystem, are important factors determining the success or failure of a mobile platform, Microsoft focused hardware upgrade for Surface Pro 2. Undeniably Surface Pro 2 possesses valuable improvements, but still it is difficult to create clear competitive advantages.

Upgrade excellence is not enough

Upgrade to the best of Surface Pro 2 is the amount of time used up to 75% through the use of Intel's Haswell processor capable of lower power consumption. As if the Microsoft Surface Pro early with only modest battery life is 3-5 hours Surface Pro 2 can operate continuously for 7-10 hours. However, this figure is only theoretical, practical experience will certainly not be so long.Therefore, to use Surface Pro 2 for a full day working needs, strengths has always been hailed, users will still need to have a charger. Does Microsoft would have imagined this scenario should the company tried to equip Surface Pro 2 accessories range is likely to increase further the amount of use. Anyway, we need to wait until the device is officially sold out to go to the final conclusion. 

Going against the trend and not a reasonable price

Currently, the tablet product lines are strong shift from the high-end devices, to down screen 7 inch compact segment with cheaper price. It is a fact that even Apple is not acceptable, forcing them to launch mini iPad tablet. It is hard to blame Microsoft themselves against the trend because if too little is produced Surface keyboard accessories as well as that caused her to experience typing inherently limited compared to the laptop will be a positive with the user.

However, it is worth mentioning here that the company has proved to be quite confident in himself when introducing Surface Pro 2 is the screen size and the same low price at 899 USD. At this price, users only need to "try" is a little more can be an Ultrabook owner or even Macbook Air with powerful configuration and design of thin, lightweight, much less next. It is enough to show that Surface Pro 2 will buy no less picky than the first version if Microsoft does not make the policy change prices.

Structures

Like the first version, Surface Pro 2 has been developed in the direction of hybrid between tablet and laptop. A hybrid device, it will not be too much of a good product is designed to cater for a certain special purposes. This statement is true for Surface Pro 2 when there is not a single feature of the real highlights: Entertainment is not possible due to lack of application was not working because the keyboard comfortable to adjust for small more compact. Still, if his determination to have chosen the path may someday, Microsoft will succeed with Surface. But fast or slow it is still in the software giant hand.
