I can't tell you anything about Samsung but would speculate they're in the same class as HP, Dell, etc.
I have a SP2 which I am currently traveling with. If you are interested in that, my 2 cents of advice are
- Get the larger SP3. The 16:9 screens on so many tablets are really frustrating for any real computer work.
- Get a surface Pro only if you need a full PC to be used almost exclusively as a tablet in hand.
I use my SP2 as a traveling PC mostly to service my phones and tablets and to do a little work off the company PC and some web surfing when a tablet falls short. For any tablet form PC to be of any use above and beyond a conventional ipad/android/PB tablet it needs to have a hard drive of at least 128G, otherwise you won't have enough space for backups and decent programs. I recommend at least 256G (BTW, I don't do "cloud"). The SP2/SP3 are heavy and awkward for their appearance, using mine as a kindle reader is a chore. Adding a keyboard, I recommend the TypePad but be prepared for a plethora of typos, simply from the shape and form of the keys, plus it can be buggy at times. The touchpad on the keyboard is also fraught with issues, so a mini mouse is in order if you want to make for speed. By the time you make up for all this, and get a decent case for protection, a laptop starts making more sense.
On a previous related note on Fujitsu, don't cheap-out, they have their price ranges like any other mfgr.
EDIT: Oh, hey, I forgot. SP2 has only one USB port so Yay! an external hub is in order!
