Three years later, is the Surface 3 still worth your time?

The Surface 3 is still Microsoft's latest non-pro Surface 2-in-1. How is it holding up three years after it first released?

The Microsoft Surface 3 is almost three years old, which is super old in technology time. Launched with Windows 8.1, the Surface 3 was Microsoft's true "entry-level" Surface aimed at college students and those who do mostly lightweight tasks and web browsing. The Surface 3 was special for two reasons; its size and price. At 10.6-inches, it was a smaller alternative to the Surface Pro, while also costing significantly less at just $499.

It's Microsoft's only Surface offering that could run Windows 10 and was available for under $500. It was an immediate hit among Microsoft fans, students, and casual PC users looking for a lightweight device. The latest stats from AdDuplex say the Surface 3 is the fourth most popular Surface on the market right now, sitting just behind the Surface Pro 2017 at 11.4 percent Surface market share. The Surface 3 is still in use by a lot of people today.
