Like most Windows 8 tablets, the Surface Pro 3 has just one USB 3.0 port, which road warriors may find limiting.
I'm writing this review with the Surface Pro 3 and Type Cover sitting on my lap (I do recommend a lap desk or magazine as an intermediary surface if the kickstand digs into bare legs). The variable position tilt and redesigned Type Cover make the Surface Pro 3 "lap-able", unlike prior models. Now the kickstand offers infinite positions, and there's even a position that's well suited to drawing with the tablet on a table. The design is as stunning, modern and lust inducing as ever, and Microsoft fixed our one big pet peeve: the limited two position kickstand. Carrying it around and holding it for short periods of time is no chore, though when reading for an hour, you'll probably want to rest it on your legs or a table. As a travel companion, it's crazy light compared to even the lightest Ultrabooks, even with the 10 ounce Type Cover attached. No, it doesn't feel as light as the iPad Air or the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5, but this is a 12" tablet, and one with Ultrabook internals. It weighs 1.76 lbs., which is close to the weight of the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 running a mobile OS with no fan. It has a light silver magnesium alloy casing and is just 0.36" thick, which is pretty impressive for a machine with an Intel Core CPU and fan inside. This is the lightest and skinniest Surface Pro yet, despite the significantly larger 12" display (previous models had a 10.6") display. It has front and rear 5MP cameras that are a big step up from previous Surface Pro models.

The tablet runs Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit, has dual band Marvell WiFi 802.11AC and Bluetooth 4.0.

As ever, RAM is soldered on board, so you won't be able to upgrade it, even if you're up to the advanced surgery required to access internals.
Note that the Core i5 models are available now, but the Core i3 and i7 models won't be available until August 1. As ever, upgrading and even opening Surface Pro is a trial, so if you want more RAM or a larger SSD, opt for Microsoft's 8 gigs of DDR3 RAM model with a 256 gig SSD or the Core i7 with a 512 gig SSD. Today we take a first look at the $999 Surface Pro 3 with the 4th generation Intel Core i5 ULV CPU and Intel HD 4400 graphics, 4 gigs of RAM and a 128 gig SSD. This time, Microsoft ups the ante with a more mainstream 12" size that might just steal a few buyers who were pondering 12.5" Ultrabooks like the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga and Dell XPS 12. It's a power user tablet that's on many folks' wish lists, even if it isn't entirely practical as a laptop replacement, because it's just so darned sexy and cool. In Chief (twitter: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 is the latest in MS' line of tablets with the brains of a laptop. What's Not: Type Cover keyboard not included in price, limited ports on tablet.
