Microsoft has officially launched Surface Pro 4, its latest 2-in-1 high-end tablet in an event organized by the company today. Microsoft has stepped up its game in the new model compared to its predecessor. What you’ll first notice when holding the device is its extreme lightweight curved premium aluminium body and sleek design. The Surface Pro 4 is 0.7mm thinner than its predecessor that has a thickness of 9.1mm, but that doesn’t stopped it from having a slightly larger 12.3-inch screen with 2160 × 1440 pixel resolution that translates to roughly 267ppi pixel density.
The design is not only the fascinating aspect, residing inside its main core is the new Intel Skylake processor, which offers higher performance when compared to the chipset found in Surface Pro 3. According to Microsoft, the Surface Pro 4 is 30% faster than Pro 3 and 50% faster than Macbook Air. We’ll have to wait to confirm how true that is, the second statement we mean. As expected, the Surface Pro 4 runs Windows 10 out-of-the-box.
