At only 1.76 pounds and 0.36" thick, it amazes me that Microsoft was able to pack a 4th-generation Haswell Intel Core i7 processor into this tablet. The only higher configuration available expands the storage to 512GB. The Surface Pro 3 I was given to test had one of the top-end configurations, which includes a dual-core Intel Core i7-4650U processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of solid-state memory. This article will summarize my experience using it and attempt to shed light on when and why you would want to edit video on the Surface Pro 3.įirst, let’s look at the hardware. But how does it perform when it comes to video editing using professional software, such as Adobe Premiere Pro? This is the question I sought to answer, and after spending some hands-on time with the Surface, I was more than surprised by just how well the tablet performed. With a fast solid-state hard drive, the option of an Intel® Core™ i7 processor, and a full Windows operating system, we can expect it to perform well for a most tasks. The marketing behind Microsoft’s Surface Pro 3 claims it’s a tablet that can replace your laptop.
