Microsoft Surface 3 Tablet (64 GB)

Surface 3

The tablet that can replace your laptop.

With the integrated Kickstand, the ability to run desktop software and touch apps, and a full-size USB port, Surface 3 is a perfect mix of innovation and practicality. As thin and light as it is, you’ll be amazed at all you can achieve with this device.

Best of a tablet

Surface 3 is built around a durable magnesium body that’s incredibly light and thin, so you’ll feel confident taking it anywhere. With up to 10 hours of video playback*, a beautiful 10.8” display, and integrated Kickstand, Surface 3 is perfect for hands-free entertainment wherever you go.

Works like a laptop when you need it

Powered by a fast Intel processor, touch apps and Windows desktop software like iTunes and Photoshop Essentials work seamlessly. Click in a backlit keyboard† to type faster than on-screen and connect easily to your accessories with the full-size USB 3.0 port.

Runs Windows & Office

With Windows 8.1, you can multitask by running two apps side by side. For a limited time§, Surface 3 includes one year of Office 365 Personal\\- $69.99 value – plus OneDrive cloud storage.

Great Pen experience

With a Pen† that feels like an actual pen, this is the most natural writing experience on a tablet. With one click of the Pen, a blank sheet is available for notes, even if Surface is asleep. Easily mark up presentations, sign documents, or enjoy art apps.
