“$499 for the 64GB / 2GB RAM / WiFi variant, and $599

Good luck finding Surface 3 at nearly $499 here. There’s no Microsoft Store here in Philippines. Unless Villman sells it with huge added price at 30k+.

Here’s the price of Surface 3 for Asia-Pacific. – >m.windowscentral.com/heres-how-much-surface-3-will-cost-asia-pacific-region

SURFACE 3 IS A THE SEQUEL TO SURFACE 2 RT BUT WITH FULL-BLOWN WINDOWS 8.1.

SURFACE 3 IS DIFFERENT FROM SURFACE PRO 3.
