hey guys this is Austin and steam here with the demo of the Microsoft Surface RT tablet with a full sized USB 2.0 port I got to thinking what exactly can we do with it first off I grabbed a normal USB flash drive and plugged it in surprise surprise it works just fine and lets us get at all our data I didn't have luck with a USB 3.0 Drive but that may be a hardware issue next I grabbed the Logitech MX performance which is an amazing mouse but Dez needs and drivers plug the wireless receiver in and the surface recognizes it no problem even the additional buttons with that out of the way hooking up a Razer BlackWidow with no problem with zero lag at all as I work with a ton of video next up I wanted to try a 64 gigabyte SDXC card with a normal USB card reader plug it in and bam instant access to my 1080p videos and 24 megapixel stills since it's been working so well I decided to see what happens if you plug an iPhone 5 in it immediately starts charging in the driver installs cover pulling pictures off doesn't quite work even though it shows up still handy in a pinch though plug in Nexus 7 in and the surface recognizes it no problem and begin some serious tablet section action since I really haven't been able to stop it yet how about we try a USB hub with the mouse keyboard SD card reader and a blue Yeti microphone hooked up the surface powers them all from the single USB port and they're all detected and working fine I doubt anyone will ever use the surface like this but it looks so ridiculous I couldn't help but do it the surface can do more than just plug a ton of USB devices in though flash works fine an internet explorer which amazingly enough actually isn't bad and multitasking and a switching is leagues ahead of any other tablet out there it's not perfect but I've been having a lot of fun with the surface so far if you enjoyed be sure to hit that like button if you're interested in my unboxing and review you can check out my full thoughts on the surface here anyway I will catch you in the next one
