Surface pro vs surface pro 2

[TheReven]

So the surface pro (128gb) is £599 and the pro 2 (64gb) is £719 .. Does the specs of the pro 2 weigh up the lost in space and money ... I'm looking at getting this mainly for gaming and coursework as it can rub skyrim around 20-30 fps (surface pro 1)

Pro 2.

Dont try playing skyrim on that. Please dont. The experience you will have will be awful.

I wouldn't play skyrim on intel hd4000/4400 grapics, But maybe it will work on the lowest settings. ( i still don't advice you to play skyrim on it)

I have a gaming rig I play Skyrim on but I'm out and about so much lately and my iPad is so dissapointing when it comes to gaming and 30fps is better than nothing

I am very impressed with that actually this looks like the deal breaker just going to save up for a bit more

Yeah thats what i meant. Like going from your full gaming rig that is pretty beast and then going and playing in on that at like 30/20 fps is going to make you feel ill

Yes. Pro 2 SS s has well so there is a significant boost in the IGPU and the battery like. The Pro 2 has a USB 3.0 interface and an SD expansion so storage is really unlimited!

Get the surface 2. If you're planning on doing any sort of semi serious gaming don't get it and get something else. The beauty of the surface pro line is then form factor and that's is its limiting factor. Serious about maybe purchasing a surface pro 2 for travelling as my ipad isn't flexible enough and I don't want to bother carrying around my 17 inch laptop.

I have a surface pro 1 because i got it for ridiculously cheap. Its a great device but the Pro 2 really does improve on the 1's limits. Haswell improved graphics as well as battery life which was major.

Surface Pro 2 is superior in every way.That's all you need to know.
