Key Advantages

The Surface Pro ZHX-00001 offers a versatile hybrid design enabling users to switch seamlessly between a laptop and tablet mode. Its high-resolution PixelSense display provides sharp visuals and supports pen input for note-taking and creative tasks. The device is powered by an Intel Core i5 processor, delivering desktop-class performance in a compact form factor. The inclusion of a solid-state drive ensures faster boot times and reliable storage. Its lightweight magnesium chassis enhances portability without compromising durability. Additionally, full Windows 8 Pro support allows users to run traditional desktop applications alongside modern apps.

Limitations

Despite its versatility, the Surface Pro ZHX-00001 has limited battery life compared to other tablets, typically lasting around 4 to 5 hours under standard usage. It lacks a full-sized USB port, relying instead on USB 3.0 Type-A and Mini DisplayPort, which may require adapters for some peripherals. The initial 4GB RAM restricts multitasking with more demanding applications. Its fan noise can be noticeable under heavy load due to active cooling requirements. The relatively high price point at launch limited accessibility for some users. Additionally, the detachable keyboard (Type Cover) is sold separately, adding to the total cost.
