Microsoft has unveiled a new ad that’s supposed to show us that the Surface 2 tablet is a much better choice than all the other devices on the market, this time comparing it with the iPad Air.

Microsoft claims that the Surface 2 comes with the right options for families who want to let their kids use the tablet, allowing parents to create multiple accounts, each with its own backgrounds and apps.

At the same time, thanks to the fact that it’s running Windows RT 8.1, the Surface 2 packs more advanced options that can provide users with full reports on their kids’ activities.

Of course, it’s only up to the user to decide which one is better, but it’s interesting to see that Microsoft is still struggling to blast the other tablets on the market as part of its own Surface advertising strategy.
