Surface Pro 3 what's good and where it lacks

Microsoft's newly launched Surface Pro 3 looks like a laptop than a tablet . The Surface Pro runs on a proper laptop engine -Intel Haswell series core processors, 4GB of RAM and 64-256 GB of solid state memory so the possibility is high that it will get the upgrade soon once Broadwell platform ready. The Surface Pro 3 comes with SATA 3 interface is a tad disappointing . Storage performance is lot faster due to PCI interface.

Screen size :

The biggest change on the surface Pro 3 is its screen size goes to 12 inch and aspect ratio 3:2 similar to the iPad's 4:3 aspect ratio. Overall the display is large and sharp enough for a ultraportable laptop-like use case scenario. The Best part of this device is its touchscreen further aids ease of use, even when using this device as a laptop. 

 Battery life :

For ultraportable laptop users, hours of battery life is premium one most of the  windows 8.1 ultrabooks tread in the 6-8 hours range for battery life. "Testing consist of full battery discharge while internet browsing over WiFi was associated with a network Auto-Brightness disabled ,and bluetooth Radio was turned off .Battery life varies with settings , usage and other factors" .

Much improved Surface Pro type cover :

The Surface Pro Type cover for the Surface Pro 3 is larger than the previous one because of the larger dimensions Surface Pro 3 allows the cover to offer an almost  full-size keypad, making typing a comfortable and smooth experience but you still don't get the same tactile feedback as of ultrabooks / laptops due to the shallow design of the keypad. 

Weight and portability :

Surface Pro 3 is most definitely a lot more portable compared to laptop and ultrabooks due its compact design its weights only 0.8 Kg (800 grams) weight profile and compact dimensions, but when you add the cover takes the weight to approximately 1.1 kg bringing 

it closer to the 1.3 kg ultrabook territory due to which it's heavy , cumberosme and awkward to hold .

Price :

Priced at $799 the surface Pro 3 seems well priced but adding $130 for the "Type cover" pushes the price tag to $940 for a 64 GB version with base core i3 processor. Add 128 GB flash drive and a core i5 processor (same as all base versions of ultrabooks/laptops) and you end up with a final price tag that reads more like $1128 rather than $799.

Connectivity :

No 3G /LTE for a $ 799 tablet .yes , the launch model don't offer cellular data connectivity , WiFi is the only way to get the Surface Pro 3 connected to the web. 

No fan :

The Microsoft Surface Pro 3 does house a fan inside its slim chassis to keep things cool and while it might not be as audible ,holding it close to you when using in tablet mode could make the fan noise an irritant, especially in quit environments .

As stated at the beginning of this story , the Surface Pro 3 is a lot more of a laptop than a tablet but it is better in aspect of portability ,but i doubt whether it will make you dump your laptop .

Snapchat going high added text chat and video call features

Snapchat added new feature the biggest update yet thursday , in a big move added text messaging and vedwo chatting to its photo and video chatting to its photo and video sharing app.

The latest version of the Snapchat app focuses on helping its users have conversations rather than just one-off picture and video messages.

the snapchat was badly missing an important part of conversation as the company wrote in a blog post "There's nothing like knowing you have the full attention of your fried while you're chatting".

In a new look :

Many of the app's icons and buttons have been redesigned and the entire user interface gas been given some much-needed polish. The menus, which you still navigate via swipes, are cleaner and less cluttered. The font style is also been given new look with more subtle typeface with smaller one .

New feature added Text messing :

One of the biggest thing that snapchat was badly in need that was conversation between users and with the latest update ,users can now have full-fledged conversations through the app. Simply swipe right over a contact's name from  your inbox to pull up a conversation view.

Video Chatting :

One of the best feature that snapchat added is live video chatting to the app. This feature is triggered only when both users have the app open and are in the same conversation.When this occurs , the yellow capture button turns into a blue button the company is calling "here".


Hold down this button and the app begins to record video that immediately appears on the user's screen. As you do in the photo messages in text chats, you can swipe between your device's front and rear-facing cameras by swiping up and down on the screen .

As far as video quality , is not exactly the HD quality of other apps like FaceTime but its feels better than average especially considering it's in real time it's pretty good .

Compared to this update ,the old snapchat , with the simple design and emphasis solely on disappearing photos , seems a bit immature .With the latest update The SnapChat has managed to build a powerful and with  Better GUI build a surprisingly powerful messaging platform .

Snapchat's newest app is available download here on  iOS and Android .
