it's very stable and works well. i got a monoprice desk mount with a swinging arm that moves the screen anywhere i want it to go.

The plate that comes with this unite is very versatile! Those arms extend and contract to form around different tablets. I do not have a surface pro 3 (but I do want one bad!), but I have had the chance to hold one & look at it for a while & I would say I'm 95% sure that this unite will hold it fine! This one is made for diffrent sized tablets so even if you have a case it should work. I wouldn't recommend trying to hook up the keyboard attachment or anything like that, it's just made for the tablet & case ect..

Only used it in landscape mode, but with the top clip to hold the phone in I am pretty sure you can use it in portrait mode. I used it with very thin case and it held phone secure.

Yes it does for me. I have always used it sideways (portrait-mode, long side horizontal) and I have been using it for a year now. Fortunately I do not face the problem of swiveling like others did. It does move slightly on its own but not much.

Not very well. The Surface Pro is slightly thicker than the cover expects and the openings for the buttons don't align.

Yes, you can use this holder in both portrait or landscape. It also has many divisions of angle which I find very useful if I use it in bed. It has a nice soft cushioned bottom to use in your lap. I would give this four stars for quality and price.

I have found that if you place the opened keyboard on back face in a phone or tablet stand that it is much more stable and prevents it from falling over. Even the cheap plastiic stands will work. I can now even place the keyboard with the stand on my leg, while sitting down, without it falling backwards. I love the keyboard, but am stiil trying to find a work around for when it times out and trying to get it connected to the bluetooth again.

You may use it but the new Touch cover for Surface Pro 3 have better performance,better features,etc. I would buy the new touch cover instead.

I am using it with Surface 3 Pro and it presents absolutely no problems. Trackpoint is smooth.

Really intended for portrait mode, because of the clamping support. I Have tried using it in landscape mode, but you will need to make sure you clamp it tight and tilt the unit back a bit.

Yes, absolutely. It's made not to tip over so it works in either portrait or landscape.

I just tried the bag with a Surface Pro 3. It fits but it is tight. The Pro 3 is over half an inch longer on the longest side and that makes the fit snug on each side of the bag. I would wonder if it would chafe over time.

I have a surface pro 3 and it works...but you have to hit it a little hard.

I purchased this hoping it would work with my Surface pro. It unfortunately did not work for that device, but it does hold my Venue 8 pro perfectly. It is a well made piece of equipment that is sturdy and mounts securely. It should work great for you!

If the tablet is in a landscape position (long side horizontal) it's very sturdy at any angle. It tends to become wobbly when in a portrait position (short side horizontal). But not enough for the tablet to fall off or the stand to fall over.I have a 10.1" tablet so if the tablet is smaller it would probably be less wobbly and if it's a 12" it may be more wobbly.

Yes, and the current version includes 2 tablet holding brackets. The corner gripping bracket is most secure and is recommended for portrait viewing. The original version had only a vertical bracket, so older comments will refer to the vertical holding bracket.
