The shell does what it should, a little room for improvement.

I bought three weeks ago, the Surface Pro 2 tablets of Windows, to this stand and protective cover. I'm an artist and sketch plein air on the tablet, so I put on my equipment, of course, special requirements in the points mobility and robustness. The shell of Goodstyle was previously on several train trips, air travel and booking your week in use.

+ Design: Schick through the seams and the lines.
+ Protection: During a fall, the corners of the tablet are particularly at risk. Here should the thick leather corners of the envelope which enclose the edge of the tablet completely, prove helpful.
+ Function: The tablet is secure, There are all connections without limitations! (Contrary to other reviews) and the cover is opened easily and quickly available.
+ Heat: I have to run on the tablet and Adobe Photoshop can not notice any problems with heat buildup. How that looks at gaming I could not test.
+ Processing
+ Price

- The next time for outdoor equipment no longer leatherette: The thin smooth surface of the shell has worn so that the artificial leather is at the edges in places already completely frayed and cracked through everyday transport in a rucksack in three weeks already. This does not constitute a reduction in the function of the tablet, but is annoying.
- Stability: The recessed lines on the envelope, so you can raise the tablet at different angles, are per se a good idea, but the tablet is already several times slipped down while sketching, ie it is not secure enough in his position.
- I work with the Tablet rare on a table and often on my lap. The rest ends opened on an extended piece of the cover plate, which is only one-third as wide as the Tablet. The problem: This can provide an imbalance on the lap when the rest between the thighs sinking.

The shell seemed to me when buying and also seems to me now to be in terms appearance and function the best in Amazon assortment in the price range. After three weeks of practice stress I give a buy recommendation, but would deduct half a star for the shortcomings of stability and quality of materials.
