Type cover not included in the box
The Surface line's iconic type cover isn't included with the tablet itself, so if you want one you can expect an upwards of $129.99 investment outside the tablet itself.

Battery life could be better
The Surface Pro 3 was tested to last around 9 hours of normal web browsing. The test itself was conducted with a full battery discharge while browsing over WIFI on 25 popular web pages. All settings were left default aside from WIFI being associated with a network, Bluetooth disabled, and auto-brightness disabled. While 9 hours isn't terrible, it leaves a bit to be desired.

Works as a tablet or a laptop
A true convergence device. This is the most powerful tablet on the market that is also a really great ultrabook competitor. Being that it can be used as either makes it extremely convenient to those that want power on the go.

Pen input
N-trig pen feels like a real pen and is natural to hold. There is a top button on the pen that allows for an eraser function as well as use for a wake up function.
