        Naveen, 27 Dec 2019No. Very limited so. Better to go with later modelThe only plus you have free is office that's it sorry to say. Internet browsing is a poor experience, as the browser is not really supported on most site. A real shame, as M$ will not unlock the boot loader making it a bit of a paper weight.

          It's not because the latest surface pros use intel chips It's because these 2 surfaces use Windows RT and was sort of closer to an iPad then a laptop. If it was based on them not running ARM chips then explain why the surface pro x isn't here.

                    Hey, GSMArena! How about including the latest Microsoft Surface Pro 6 (2018) and Surface Go in your database. I'm a recent convert from Mac to the Surface line-up and I'm quite disappointed that you don't have this anymore.

                                amazing technology, 101% better than the fancy ipad..

                                it will really help u in terms of productivity, multi task and its portability and broad functionality you cannot think of bringing huge chunky laptop.

                                i installed autocad and adobe softwares and it perfectly smooth..
