Audio

I hope Surface 3 will have improved audio over the Surface 2. The headphone out jack on my Surface 2 is very noisy and the USB audio is very glitchy while multitasking. If anyone gets a chance to test these on the Surface 3 I'd like to hear if there is any improvement. Thanks!

I tested the surface 3 in a local Microsoft store. I played The Hobbits on HBO GO but the sound stutters badly, just like it does on my Surface RT. I'm guessing the Atom CPU is to blame. Not sure.

That's too bad. Could it have been an internet problem.

No way, the picture quality is at highest level without any playback issue and the wifi is over 50mbps.
