Microsoft have rolled out a number of promotions and discounts for its Surface Pro 3 tablet over the year, yet the entry level model was never available with a price cut.
Understandable, yet frustrating — as many people wanted to get their hands on the base model.
They can do so now, as Redmond has introduced a new $100 price cut for this version, which means you can now purchase it for only $699. Almost a perfect price for an almost perfect device, the cheapest it has been since launch in May 2014.
Obviously, the biggest limitation of this model is the storage space on offer.
While the base version of the Surface Pro 3 makes do fine with an Intel Core i3 processor inside that runs at 1.5GHz clock speed, the 4GB of RAM is also okay for most tasks, it is the 64GB of internal storage that is clearly not enough for a device that is supposed to replace your laptop.
For most other tablet it may have worked, but not here.
Still, you get what you pay for.
And fortunately, Microsoft not only offers plenty of OneDrive cloud storage but also access to a USB port for external storage. There are ways to get around the limited storage space. Not to mention the rest of the package is top notch, and as good as it gets on Windows powered tablets.
If you are interested in an affordable Surface Pro 3, now is the time to buy.
