Microsoft Surface RT Review

32 GB     See other variants reviews Score: 56.8 / 100

Microsoft Surface RT is a mid level tablet launched back in the year 2012, provisioned with a 1 megapixels back camera, a big size 10.6-inches screen and an extremely powerful 1.3 GHz Quad-Core processor. Great! That's it? Not at all, it's just the tip of the iceberg.

The Microsoft Surface RT is quite a compact device, taking into consideration it presents a 10.6" display and it only has 10.81" long. Being just 0.37" thick,the Microsoft Surface RT is extremely thin and good-looking. The Microsoft Surface RT isn't very light for a tablet device this size, weighting 24 oz.

Microsoft decided to build the Microsoft Surface RT using an extremely powerful 1.3 gigahertz Quad-Core processing unit, bundled in a NVIDIA Tegra 3 T30 chip and a big 2 GB of RAM memory. Collaborating with graphic calculations, this tablet also counts with a 520 megahertz ULP GeForce GPU. The Microsoft Surface RT counts with a 32 GB large internal memory and an SD extension slot, more than enough to install tons of apps, games, pictures and videos without worrying about running out of space.

Microsoft packed this tablet with an average 10.6-inches screen, and a 768 x 1366 resolution, which makes everything look quite good.

The Microsoft Surface RT provides wifi capability (although it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a hotspot). The Microsoft Surface RT doesn't use a SIM card, because it's not a GSM tablet device.

The Microsoft Surface RT has only a 1 mega-pixels back-facing camera. It is capable of filming videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD).

The Microsoft Surface RT also includes Bluetooth, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This tablet is really overpriced considering it is priced 123 dollars, and some similar tablet devices are being sold for much less than that. In case are looking for a tablet to play lots of games, this tablet is the right choice for you.
