Microsoft recently launched the latest version of its Surface Pro line, the 2-in-1 laptop, just a few weeks after unveiling a fresh series of Surface laptops earlier this month. Introduced in 2013, Microsoft has consistently breathed life into the laptop-tablet market by ingeniously merging its signature Windows software and other innovative services with unique hardware specifications. Let’s delve into detail about what the newly introduced Surface Pro entails.
The Surface Pro portrays a seamless marriage of sophistication and technology. Features such as the new Surface Pen, with its tilt functionality, distinguishes this series from its market counterparts.
The 2-in-1 laptop and tablet design of the device is a testament to Microsoft’s commitment to promoting versatility and convenience. Versatility is also mirrored in the color options of the device, with new Surface Pro available in Platinum, Burgundy, and Cobalt Blue.
One of the highlights of the new device is undoubtedly the Microsoft Surface Arc Mouse designed for comfortable navigation. The convenience and user-friendly nature extend to the keyboard, which is built using a luxurious Alcantara material.
The new Surface Pro boasts a seventh-generation Intel® Core™ processor in a new fanless design — a feature that ensures your laptop functions quietly during use.
When it comes to longevity, the device impresses with up to 13.5 hours of video playback, a 50 percent increase compared to its predecessor. Technical specifications also include 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM facilitating seamless functioning even with heavy-duty usage.
Microsoft stakes its claim of the keyboard being the ‘best ever’, featuring the Signature Pro Type Covers for more accurate typing coupled with enhanced sound quality. The keyboard technology is designed for rapid typing with 1.3mm of key travel. With its Alcantara construction, the keyboard adds to the overall aesthetics and warm allure of the Surface Pro.
The device houses a 12.3-inch PixelSense display, specifically designed to harmonize with the new Surface Pen. Despite these exceptional features, the device maintains a sleek profile, being only 8.5mm thin and weighing a mere 0.7kg.
As for connectivity, there’s an option for LTE for more mobile connection options. However, it’s noteworthy that no USB-C ports have been included in the Surface Pro, similar to its forerunner.
Starting at a price point of $799, the new Surface Pro will be available from June 15th in 25 countries, including Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Further roll-outs in other markets are slated to follow shortly.
With a perfect blend of intelligent design and cutting-edge technology, the new Surface Pro by Microsoft is set to redefine the laptop-tablet market, promising impactful user experiences that sustain and elevate productivity levels.
