LEAN says:
ayos ah, hindi ganun kataas ang patong. ok na ok na yan.
chinitoguy says:
Too expensive!!! I’ll just wait for Asus or Acer’s Windows 8 tablets instead.
LEAN says:
btw, 32.5k lang pala ang 32gb nito sa sulit. hehe
dado says:
no thanks RT. Windows 8 pro for me.
Ramon says:
As much as I want to try out a windows surface device, RT isn’t a full “windows” experience yet, it’s a simple tablet for now :)
Excited to see windows surface pro devices XD
Kikokix says:
Surface RT is indeed a tablet with a “diluted” version of a full windows 8 OS. It’s a direct competitor of the iPad and Android Tablet.
No one expects iOS to behave just like a OSX, in a same way RT will not behave like a full Windows 8 PC (though the interface is pretty much the same, and may confuse people with the difference between the Pro version).
Surface Pro, on the other hand will be a complete PC experience which will most likely compete with ultrabooks, and will probably be priced competitively as well.

too late in the game, bibili nlang ako ng nexus 7 or ipad.
Robby says:
Gusto ko ng exact model na ito. Pero ang mahal! Maghihitay na lang ako ng ibang seller or ibang tablet na lang.
Jeffrey Siy says:
We sell it at 29K only http://www.galleon.ph/product/detail/47633/microsoft-surface-with-windows-rt-32-gb-tablet-only
wgd says:
@Jeffrey Siy, that is still ~8k difference from US Market Price…
Kikokix says:
Yup! Considering that it does not come with the touch cover… waiting for the prices to come down a bit, most likely when we have an authorized distributor here which will help regulate the SRP.
It’s a new product with high demand with limited supply, hence the high local price.
Jeffrey Siy says:
@wgd That’s right. The shipping and customs are the ones that makes the price go up. That’s the best we can do at the moment. It is a lot cheaper that what is currently offered though.
We also have the following

Sherwin Francisco says:
I got mine from US(asked my friend to buy for me) for $760 (32GB + touch cover) including tax from MS Store, NY. For all those saying it’s not worth, I don’t think so; build quality, speed, size, weight and most of all, file/media support. No complaint at all. I don’t need that “iSoftware” and sync my media files (pics/video/music) everytime I want to open it on USB external drives.
thecorrescode says:
Another s*cker and bloated product from Microsoft. They advertise it as 32GB pero yung user available lang is 16GB. Meaning, yung installation mismo ng OS is more than 10GB.
carlo says:
Mahal talaga si villman kahit kailan!!!
Mj says:
Wow, ang mahal… Windows RT lang yan, di yan yung Windows 8 Pro version. Di compatible mga x86 programs jan. No thanks. Maxadong mahal para sa tablet. Kung 25K cguro madami bibili jan. Id go for Ultrabooks instead kung 38K. :)
Exia says:
pag bumili ka sa Us $699 plus tax kaya ok na yan. Sa pinas kasi tax inclusive na yan. Iconsider nyo $699 plus tax plus shipping.
