I'm willing to buy a surface 2 for study purpose but I wanna know which one would be better ipad air or this one..and one important thing which essential apps and games are available on RT and which are not.

shayanr if your concern is more apps and games then surface 2 is not what you want, if your main concern is study focused then by all means purchase the surface 2. If you understand your own needs then this should be an easy choice for you, more options versus productive.

All I wanna know can I make power point presentations or view them? And if I connect usb through mini port will it read it? Mainly I've to watch lectures videos that's it

Yes it comes with full Office so you can create power point presentations. It also has full USB

 

[shayanr]

I'm talking about the ipad..I heard there are apps on ipad which can run presentations and what about usb

 

[rld082982]

Oh, I have no idea about the iFad... I wouldn't consider doing anything that even remotely resembles productivity on one of those.

What about the games? Games available on wp are they all available on surface 2 too?
