Hello, everyone!
I am new here and would really like to hear your opinions about the following matter. I want to buy a tablet that would primarily serve as a subnotebook during travel. I am currently using a 1st gen Thinkpad 10 (2 gb ram/LTE) and am more or less happy with it, but it gets very hot and the performance slows down even when using only Microsoft software (edge, mail, etc). Also any multitasking, even listening to music while writing and doing some research on the web is not an option.
So I thought it would be nice to upgrade to a Surface 3 (4gb/128gb/LTE) as i found a deal that includes the cover for 270 EUR near me. I feel tempted by the adjustable kickstand and quality keyboard, that I think I would be even almost accustomed to, as I use a Microsoft Foldable Keyboard with my Thinkpad 10.
Another option would be to get a slightly used, like-new TabPro S for 380 EUR. It is newer, has a core m3, a proper-ish SSD, the keyboard included as well and an even nicer screen (although no LTE, which is convenient for me). It also the angles are not adjustable and the keyboard non backlit.
I am also wondering of it's 12" screen will not be too big for me, as I also want to keep the device as small as reasonably possible, but with the relatively best possible performance. (I also have a a t450s for day-to-day work while not on the go)
Both devices are used in good condition.
Which device would be a more reasonable upgrade from my tp10?
Thank you so much for your help,
Audrius
