surface pro3_Surface Pro 3-初始印象

surface pro3

I went out and bought a Surface Pro 3. I bought the i7 8 gig RAM 256 gig storage version. It was paid for with my own money and there were no discounts. It's been a while since I had a high-powered laptop that was my own, not my employers, so I was mostly happy to spend the money. I bought the "Microsoft Complete" plan that covers accidental damage, even from drops.

我出去买了Surface Pro3。我购买了i7 8 gig RAM 256 gig存储版本。 它是用我自己的钱支付的，没有折扣。 一段时间以来，我拥有的是我自己的而不是老板的高性能笔记本电脑，所以我大部分时间都很乐意花这笔钱。 我购买了“ Microsoft Complete”计划，该计划涵盖意外损坏，甚至是跌落造成的损坏。

I was a big fan of the size of the the Surface RT and the Surface 2. Those were the tiny thin ARM-based Surfaces. I used them all the time for email, Videos, browsing. I have an iPad Air, but used the Surfaces for their keyboard and their split screen abilities. Sitting on a plane with an 8 hour battery life device doing email and watching a movie at the same time is killer. If my iPad could do split screen that would be something.

我非常喜欢Surface RT和Surface 2的大小。这些都是基于ARM的超薄超薄Surfaces。 我一直将它们用于电子邮件，视频和浏览。 我有一个iPad Air，但是使用Surfaces的键盘和拆分屏幕功能。 坐在带有8小时电池寿命设备的飞机上同时发送电子邮件和看电影是致命的。 如果我的iPad可以做分屏显示，那就好了。

I was NOT a fan of the Surface Pro 2. I have a lot of friends who have some but it was just so thick and heavy. The differential between the thickness of the keyboard and the thickness of the device itself was near comical. I wasn't going to try a Pro until it was as thin as a Surface 2.

我不是Surface Pro 2的狂热者。我有很多朋友，但有些朋友却又厚又重。 键盘厚度和设备本身厚度之间的差异接近可笑的程度。 直到它像Surface 2一样薄之前，我才打算尝试Pro。

And the Surface Pro 3 is thin. It's crazy thin. It's 9.1mm thick and about 800grams. That's about 1.8 lbs.

Surface Pro 3薄。 疯了瘦。 它的厚度为9.1毫米，重约800克。 约1.8磅。

Now, I'm never going to be able to do a review like Paul Thurrott or AnandTech so I'd encourage you to read those uber-reviews. Instead, I'm going to cut through the specs and get to the questions and answers that matter to me.

现在，我再也无法像Paul Thurrott或AnandTech那样进行评论，所以我鼓励您阅读这些超级评论。 相反，我经历的规格切割，并获得了提问和回答这个问题给我。

Oh, and this is random as I'm not a sticker person. I have no stickers on any of my laptops but this Decal from DecalGirl was too awesome so I went all in.

哦，这是随机的，因为我不是贴纸人。 我的笔记本电脑上都没有贴纸，但是DecalGirl的贴花纸非常棒，所以我全力以赴。

这是什么设备？ 明显的比较 (What IS this device? The Obvious Comparisons)

The difference between my Lenovo X1 Carbon and my iPad Air is clear. One's a powerhouse laptop and one is a lightweight tablet. I do work on the X1 and I surf and relax with the Air. I throw them both in my bag and go. I'll do a little light email on the iPad but it's largely my media and gaming device. They are separate and their difference makes sense to me.

我的Lenovo X1 Carbon和iPad Air之间的区别很明显。 一个是强大的笔记本电脑，另一个是轻便的平板电脑。 我在X1上工作，然后在Air上冲浪和放松。 我把它们都装在书包里走了。 我将在iPad上发送一些简短的电子邮件，但这主要是我的媒体和游戏设备。 它们是分开的，它们的区别对我来说很有意义。

After carrying the Surface Pro 3 around for a week, two interesting things happened. The screen on my iPad now feels small and the screen on my X1 seems HUGE. The Surface is basically the size and weight of a large magazine or a stack of papers.

将Surface Pro 3携带一周后，发生了两件事。 iPad上的屏幕现在感觉很小，而X1上的屏幕似乎很大。 表面基本上是大型杂志或一叠纸的大小和重量。

The Surface occupies a space in my brain like a real hybrid. I want to throw the Surface on the couch with abandon like I do my iPad, but somehow I carry it with more reverence. That's likely because I didn't get the cheapest Surface. My subconscious knows it's a non-trivially-priced laptop rather than a tablet. 

Surface像真正的混合动力一样在我的大脑中占据一个空间。 我想像抛弃iPad一样将Surface抛弃在沙发上，但是无论如何我还是更敬重地携带它。 那可能是因为我没有得到最便宜的Surface。 我的下意识知道这是一台价格不菲的笔记本电脑，而不是平板电脑。

I truly love my iPad Air. It works, it turns on, it runs one app at a time, and runs them well. I play games like Modern Combat with my Steelseries Stratus bluetooth controller and am amazed.

我真的很喜欢我的iPad Air。 它可以正常工作，打开，一次运行一个应用程序并运行良好。 我用我的Steelseries Stratus蓝牙控制器玩《现代战争》这类游戏，感到很惊讶。

But then I plug the Surface Pro into my 30" monitor, add a keyboard, mouse, or an Xbox controller and play a Steam Game, and I realize this is an i7 PC. It's a weird shift that has taken me the week to get my head around.

但是后来我将Surface Pro插入30英寸显示器中，添加键盘，鼠标或Xbox控制器并玩Steam游戏，我意识到这是i7 PC。这是一个奇怪的转变，这使我花了整整一周的时间我的头。

善良 (The Good)

From a consumers point of view (and in this context, that's me) it seems there are a lot of updates coming down for the Surface. Just yesterday an update came in that gave me more control over the touchpad and its right-click behavior. I hope that the updates continue. According to the Penny Arcade review they are looking at updates to improve the pen and other little details.

从消费者的角度(在这种情况下，就是我)，Surface似乎有很多更新。 就在昨天，有一个更新来了，它使我对触摸板及其右键单击行为有了更多的控制。 我希望更新继续进行。 根据Penny Arcade的审查，他们正在寻找更新以改进笔和其他小细节。

Can it run Visual Studio? Sure. I have been using it full time for a week and it's been fine. I wish it had 12 gigs of RAM, but I wish everything did.

它可以运行Visual Studio吗？ 当然。 我已经全职使用了一个星期，一切都很好。 我希望它有12个RAM，但我希望一切都做得到。

The Type Cover 3 is WAY better than the Type Cover 2, and that one was pretty good. I thought the fold-up extra magnet was a gimmick but it's not. It does more than change the angle of the keyboard, it adds lateral stability to the device and makes it feel more like a laptop and less like a tablet with a keyboard attached.

Type Cover 3比Type Cover 2更好，而且那个还不错。 我以为折叠起来的额外磁铁是个a头，但事实并非如此。 它不仅可以改变键盘的角度，还可以增加设备的横向稳定性，使它看起来更像是笔记本电脑，而不像带有键盘的平板电脑。

The screen is fantastic. I mean, truly awesome. It's "retina" in that I can't see individual pixels and it's super bright and clear. The resolution on devices like the Yoga 2 Pro are so high that they can be overwhelming. The Surface Pro 3's 2160x1400 is such that I can run it at 100% (no scaling) and find it usable. I am running at 125% right now and am not having any of the high-dpi issues that happen when you scale out to 200%. It's also worth noting that you can scale the desktop and full-screen apps separately.

屏幕很棒。 我的意思是，真棒。 它是“视网膜”，因为我看不到单个像素，而且超级明亮，清晰。 诸如Yoga 2 Pro之类的设备的分辨率是如此之高，以至于它们可能令人难以承受。 Surface Pro 3的2160x1400使得我可以100％运行(无缩放)并发现它可用。 我目前的运行速度为125％，并且没有任何因扩展到200％而发生的高dpi问题。 还值得注意的是，您可以分别缩放桌面和全屏应用程序。

There is a micro-SD card slot hidden under the stand. I popped it a 64-gig card and told Windows to store videos there. Easy expansion and my movies take up no space on my main drive.

支架下方隐藏了一个Micro SD卡插槽。 我弹出了一张64位数的卡，并告诉Windows在此处存储视频。 轻松扩展，我的电影在主驱动器上不占空间。

NOTE: Having a USB3 port is awesome, so I got a 3 port USB3 hub with Ethernet and it works great. I added a tiny Smart Card reader and a 3-in-1 mini DVI video adapter (DVI/HDMI/VGA) and got my bag of adapters down to just these three.

注意：拥有USB3端口非常棒，所以我有了一个带以太网的3端口USB3集线器，它工作得很好。 我添加了一个小型智能卡读卡器和一个三合一迷你DVI视频适配器(DVI / HDMI / VGA)，并将我的适配器袋缩小到了这三个。

坏人 (The Bad)

Noting that I have an i7 version, and not the i3 or i5, I have noticed both fan noise and heat when the Surface Pro 3 is working hard. By working hard, I mean sustained CPU over 50-60% plus hard drive access plus wireless. So, playing Steam Games, installing Visual Studio, running Handbrake.

注意到我使用的是i7版本，而不是i3或i5版本，当Surface Pro 3努力工作时，我注意到风扇的噪音和发热量。 通过努力，我的意思是持续的CPU超过50-60％，加上硬盘驱动器以及无线功能。 因此，玩Steam游戏，安装Visual Studio，运行Handbrake。

I was initially really disappointed that there was a fan at all. But again, after a week, I realized that the laws of physics are what they are and I'm carrying around an i7 the size of a paper notebook. I also went back to my X1 Carbon Touch and installed Visual Studio 2013.3 and noticed that the fan turned on noted it was hot too. In fact, hotter than I remembered.

最初，我真的很失望，根本没有风扇。 但是又过了一周，我才意识到物理定律就是它们的本质，而我携带的是笔记本大小的i7。 我还回到了X1 Carbon Touch并安装了Visual Studio 2013.3，并注意到风扇已打开，并指出风扇也很热。 实际上，比我记得的要热。

So, is there a fan and will it blow when needed? Yes. I'm cool with it, because 90% of the time, it's off. It did take a mental adjustment.

那么，有没有风扇，需要时它会吹吗？ 是。 我很喜欢它，因为90％的时间都关闭了。 确实需要精神上的调整。

结论 (Conclusion)

I'm 90% happy with the Surface Pro 3. It's small and it's fast. It's not my desktop but it's definitely as fast as my beloved Lenovos when doing regular stuff. Right now I've got Outlook, Chrome, Firefox,  and IE all open. I've got 20+ tabs going, Windows Live Writer and an instance of Visual Studio. I've ordered the Docking Station and will report back when I've hooked it up.

我对Surface Pro 3感到90％满意。它既小巧又快速。 它不是我的台式机，但是在进行常规工作时绝对可以与我心爱的Lenovo一样快。 现在，我已经打开了Outlook，Chrome，Firefox和IE。 我有20多个选项卡，Windows Live Writer和Visual Studio实例。 我已经订购了扩展坞，将其连接后将向您报告。

Do any of you have a Surface Pro 3? What are your thoughts?

你们有没有Surface Pro 3？ 你都有些什么想法呢？
