Reddit reviews Microsoft Surface 3 Tablet (10.8-Inch, 64 GB, Intel Atom, Windows 10)

This is what I got.

Again, I got it with money from graduation gifts, and It still cost me a pretty penny.

But if you're just trying to branch out? I had an older version of this.

There are better options than that, I would explore them. If you're in the market for a new laptop or something, the MicroSoft Surface works pretty well as a travel computer and can be used as drawing tablet.

I don't know if you'll be able to find a tablet at under $400 that can run Photoshop greatly. I spent almost on the dot $400 for my laptop, and the first tablet on Amazon that has similar specs to it is $700 (link). The ones I found for under $400 on Amazon only had 2GB of ram (link), which is the absolute lowest that Photoshop can run on, but I can't promise it will be usable (since Adobe recommends 8GB, which is what the previously linked $700 tablet has).

Is there a reason why you can't have a laptop but you can have a tablet? My suggestion would honestly be to talk to your boss about allowing a laptop instead. I honestly can't think of any valid reason to allow a tablet and not a laptop.

Look into the Surface 3 (the non-pro variety). Its 1920x1280 but you could probably change it (though since it's not a 16x9 aspect ration it might look a little weird).

Why does it have to be 1920x1080?

The problem with installing linux on a tablet is that you likely won't be able to find touchscreen drivers for it.

You can get the 2gb ram / 64gb storage version for ~$425 on amazon. (though i'd recommend going for the 4gb/128gb version)

Surface Pro 3... not exactly a standard tablet.

But the SP3 does runs full Windows, mine replaces both a tablet and laptop. Though I think it's since been discontinued with the introduction of the Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book. For a more reasonably priced (comparatively speaking) Windows tablet, the Surface 3 (non-Pro) is a popular option.

I also have a Dell Venue 8 Pro 3000 Windows 8.1 tablet, much smaller than a Surface device and much more cheaper but lacks the computing power. There are also many comparable tablets from HP and LG to name a few.

For Android tablets I have the 2013 Nexus 7 but the USB charging/data port broke on mine so I stopped using it (My Android smartphone and Windows tablets makes having an Android tablet redundant). The Nexus 7 and Nexus 9 tablets are fairly affordable and great bang for your buck but they lack MicroSD card slots as they're Nexus devices.

If all you're doing is reading I recommend one of the Amazon Fire tablets, they have various models though the resolution is a bit on the low side they're rather affordable with the cheapest model being damn near disposable as far as electronics go.

IDK enough to make an iOS recommendation but they're all of solid build quality from what I've seen.

The Surface 3 works well Ubuntu you can get one on Amazon or eBay for around $200-400. https://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Surface-Tablet-10-8-Inch-Windows/dp/B012DTDBI8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1520311059&sr=8-3&keywords=surface+3

Hi, I just discovered this sub and id love to help:

Dell 25 over
Great processor and good enough harddrive.

[HP at 254] (https://www.amazon.com/HP-11-AB011DX-11-6-Inch-Touchscreen-Convertible/dp/B01N0D8OG6/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1498603864&sr=8-5&keywords=2in1+laptop+tablet)
Cheaper but it isnt as powerful and has much less space.

This is a great machine for note taking but you may need to get the pen after and a keyboard cover.
If you want some traditional laptops or more info on each just ask!
