Also, although the memory is the same on both devices, the internal processor and price tag is truly what sets them apart from one another. Nokia’s offering opts for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor in lieu of the quad-core Nvidia Tegra 4 adorning the Surface 2 and costs $50 more than Microsoft’s current flagship tablet. And although it’s tough to say whether Microsoft will combine the two product lines in the near future, hardy competition between the two tablets is pretty much an illusion at best. Still, the glossy, blood-red exterior available on the Lumia 2520 is pretty damn chic.
Bottom line: The Surface 2 is a little bigger, has better storage options, is cheaper, and has a better keyboard attachment, but the Lumia 2520 comes in red. So … How badly do you want a red tablet?
