Don't get me wrong though the Surface 3 or Surface 4 Pro would be nice if it didn't have so many problems. Still it is heavier than a iPad even the iPad Pro I believe. Though like many people have said here the Surface is nice as a laptop replacement but not so much a tablet and I fully agree with that. When I had my Surface 3 the tablet apps sucked. Sure I did find a streaming video app to stream videos from my computer to my Surface over the local network and over the internet but on certain video files it crashed
On Android and iOS the same app streamed those video files fine.
Though it still wasn't as good as AirVideo HD that is only on iOS but the one advantage of the app is it is available across all three platforms and it will allow you to stream audio and pictures too not just video. Though like I said the windows 10 app doesn't work with all video like the android and ios version does. I mainly keep the app for a backup. To bad it will never be updated on Windows 10.
Anyway enough about the app this thread was about the Surface and iPad. The biggest advantage of the iPad I see is no heat hardly and no fans with throttling like the Surface 4 Pro. Though I understand why the Surface 4 Pro needs a fan. I know the Surface 3 has no fan. Sorry for all my rambling but that is how I feel right now.
