The latest versions of the Microsoft Windows tablets were unveiled last year and are about to reach more regions around the world, as the Microsoft Surface 4G UK release and price is announced by the company.

Microsoft has now opened pre-orders for the Surface 2 4G in the UK with a release date of May 8th given for the device, and only the 64GB version will be available with the slate priced at £539 including VAT.

To quickly recap the device features a 10.6-inch Full HD display which is powered by the Nvidia Tegra 4 quad core processor clocked at 1.7GHz with 2GB of RAM. The fact that the device has 4G LTE will mean that it is always connected and will arrive running the Windows RT 8.1 operating system.
