But quite frankly, I can't imagine Pro 2 actually would fare better in any accuracy test.
I've had, respectively still have, 3 WACOM Windows 8 tablets:
Surface Pro 1 & 2 and Dell Latitude 10.
All 3 behave quite similar: Off about 1mm close to the edges and far off in the corners. Maybe if an artist only draws in the center area, at least 2cm from the bezel, Surface Pro 2 is fine. But over all, Surface Pro 3 to me seems a huge step forward.
I'm not an artist (at ALL), but I've been working on some comics lately for another aspect of my business, using custom-made illustrations. (This is by way of explanation). I did, in my searching about software, see some posts/answers on Amazon about using Manga 5 with the SP3, and people seemed really happy with it/both. That's 100% of everything I know about drawing on anything, but in seeing this thread/discussion, thought I'd mention it.
