Steven Shaw, General Manager at Microsoft Taiwan says “Microsoft is the productivity and platform company for the mobile-first and cloud-first world. We will reinvent productivity to empower every person and every organization on the planet to do more and acheve more.”

Steven Shaw indicates that Surface Pro 3 conbines the feature of laptop in terms of productivity, along with the feature of tablet that is light and convertable. The opposing force of Surface Pro 3 is Apple Macbook , Steven Shaw makes a confession that he was also a Macbook user for four year, “those Macbook users should give Surface Pro 3 a try.”

The Surface Pro 3 has a 12in screen with a 2160x1440 resolution (a 3:2 aspect ratio), empowered by Intel Core i7 processor

and a new kickstand with a friction hinge which can open to any position up to 150 degrees.

Despite the extra size over the 10.6in Surface Pro 2, the Pro 3 is no heavier: it weighs only 800g (100g lighter). The device is 9.1mm thin compare to 10.6mm.

Another special specs of Surface Pro 3 is that it claimed to be 10 percent faster than the Surface Pro 2, and it can also drive a 4K monitor via the optional docking station. The tablet itself has a Mini DisplayPort output.

It has front-facing speakers which are 45 percent louder than before, and a USB 3 port. There's also a microSD card slot, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0 LE and a TPM 2.0 chip with front and rear-facing cameras, capable of 1080p video and 5Mp photos.

However, many reviews from the Internet say that Microsoft is in hot water to fix overheating Surface Pro 3 tablets with the Intel Core i7 processor, but no official reply has been made so far.
