"Moving to Surface Pro 2 we've increased the graphics performance by 50 percent."

No, that's Intel

I want to hear about the cheaper one.

"We improved the performance on this product by 20 percent, if you thought it was fast before it is lightning fast now."

I thought literally nobody thought it was fast before?

Edit: Haha hyping up a choice of two angles on a kickstand. This is the laugh central that I thought it might turn into.

 

[POB]

I really hope they offer a trade in program.

No, the Pro was and is decent.

The Pro was fast.

Your very much mistaken, the pro is very fast, it was an i5 after all.
As for the kickstand it was one of the major complaints, that it didn't work particularly well on the lap, so its great to see they've addressed it.

Surface Pro improves battery by 75 percent

Whoa.

 

[Brummies]

Battery has had some major improvement it seems, was that an issue with the 1st version?

Also introduced Surface power cover.

 

[Glaucus]

I'm onfused 75% better battery life or two and a half times better battery.

75% would be around 7hrs 2&1/2 would be about 10hrs.

 

[Martini1991]

It's Intel with the improvements, not Microsoft though

Yes pro was 4-5hrs battery, which was another of the big issues.

 

[cu3ed]

|It reads to me like not only have we got more battery life, but we have updated the battery as well as that?

 

[Caged]

"All-day battery" without giving an hours number. Nice.

 

[POB]

Bye bye Desktop. I need that dock.

 

[Brummies]

new docking station announced

 

[cu3ed]

Ohh the docking station, like a proper one, im moist a little.

 

[Caged]

Why not just go 4x USB3 to keep it easy when plugging stuff in?
