What immediately comes to mind when thinking of the Surface Pro 4's
Well
Pros
Is the vastly improved Type Cover. Using the Surface Pro 3's Type Cover and moving onto the new hotness truly is like night and day
Not to mention seeing them side by side
Fantastic screen
Even better keyboard and stylus
Impeccably fast processor
Superb screen
Good battery life
Undeniably versatile
The Surface Pro 4 fits a larger screen with a higher resolution into a slightly slimmer body than last year's model. The pen and keyboard cover are also improved
And this is one of the first mobile systems shipping with Intel's latest processors

Plenty of power available - but fanless Core i5 is probably your best bet
The Surface Pro gets better performance and battery life from its CPU update
And most models are now fanless. The excellent kickstand is even more flexible
The best hybrid yet
Unbeatable performance
Beautiful touchscreen display
Masses of power
A joy to type on
Wonderful screen

The best two-in-one money can buy...

The editors didn't like
Kind of big
Design is a bit bombastic
Not as portable as competitors
The fact that the Type Cover is still sold separately
Not even as part of a bundle
Sure makes the whole "tablet that can replace your laptop" spiel a harder pill to swallow. Sure
Microsoft likely will make a killing on individual retail sales from the
Sure makes the whole “tablet that can replace your laptop” spiel a harder pill to swallow. Sure
Continuum was supremely buggy
The Windows Store is still short on apps
Cortana often falls on its face
Expensive at higher specs
Keyboard costs extra and is poor
Stylus costs extra again
Although it is
Admittedly
Excellent
Microsoft still refuses to include the Type Cover keyboard by default
Forcing a separate purchase. Battery life still isn't enough for a full day
Mid-range model can struggle with demanding editing tasks
Battery life shorter than hoped
Separate £110 Type Cover
Heavy for a tablet
Soso battery life
Keyboard stability issues remain
Limited battery - casual use
Around 6-hours
No discrete graphics
Type Cover keyboard not included (its new trackpad too centrally aligned too)
"fizz" sound when charging
Fan kicks in very frequently
Windows app store fairly limited
Battery discharges in sleep mode
Expensive
Battery life still isn't great (not in the Core i7 model anyway - fanless Core i5 ought to be better in this regard)
Keyboard not included
Can get mighty expensive - to the point a laptop might make more sense
Minimal redesign leaves out USB-C and Thunderbolt options. The Surface Pen stylus is no longer included by default
And new keyboard covers are more expensive than ever. Still not great for lap use
Too pricey for the top-spec models
Lack of ports may frustrate some
You'll need a lot of money to buy it - especially as the entry level Surface Pro is sorely under-specced (and not upgradeable)
Rating
Type Cover still sold separately
Intel Core m3 at entry level
Only one USB port
Can feel unstable when typing
No Surface Pen
Type cover sold seperately
Scuffs easily
Windows 10 S restricts app selection
Needs more ports
Disappointing hard drive
Surface Pen costs extra
Surface Type cover costs extra
With Type Cover it's difficult to work on your lap
Still heavy compared to dedicated tablets
Battery can drain quickly in real-world use
Conceptually troubled
Battery could be better
Lack of truly engaging apps
Battery life only just acceptable
No USBC
Not enough ports
Doesn't ship with a dock
Doesn't ship with keyboard or dock
Battery life isn't great
The price
Type Cover costs £110 extra
Missing key features for designers
Connectivity is minimal and lacks USB Type-C
Signature Type Cover and Surface Pen are costly add-ons
微軟的 Surface Pro 從 2012 年發展至今，不管在產品定位及外型都已相當成熟，也可以說是二合一筆電的指標，提供平板觸控、手寫繪圖以及鍵盤輸入等功能，來因應不同環境使用。全新的 Surface Pro 推出後，也正式宣告未來不會再採用數字命名，將與蘋果 MacBook 一樣，用年份來區分，這麼一來也表示，未來 Surface Pro 在外型上將不會有太大的改變。而就新推出的 Surface Pro 來看，外型確實與去年的 Surface Pro 4 差異不大，就連尺寸及重量也幾乎無差異，若要換...
Abstract: 一般的 平板電腦 因為系統限制，在操作和應用多元性上都受到頗多限制，雖然廠商不斷改進，但距離能夠用來正式工作的程度仍然還有一段距離。以目前的情況來說， Windows 仍然是平板電腦上最適合用來工作的作業系統。Surface Pro 系列平板電腦從第一代就相當受到歡迎，加上 Surface Pro 的硬體規格一直都在水準之上，因此好手身邊有不少工程師朋友都把 Surface Pro 當作工作機。這次要和大家分享的是最新的 Surface Pro 4 ，為了好好體驗他的便利之處，好手帶著他寫文章、寫程式、出...
在這次實際使用 Surface Pro 4 之前，好手一直很好奇為什麼這麼多朋友願意從 Surface Pro 2 一路更新到 Surface Pro 4，而且就連對效能和操作性非常要求的工程師朋友也不例外，現在好手終於能了解他們的感覺了。Surface Pro 4 無論是在性能和攜帶性上都有非常不錯的表現，同樣是一台 iPad 的重量，但可以換到高檔筆電的效能以及續航力，真的是值得。不過在使用中倒是有一個地方要提醒大家注意，通常平板電腦將螢幕關閉後幾乎不會有太多的耗電，但在使用 Surface Pro...

Abstract: Microsoft Surface Pro 系列產品一直以來都是 Leo 相當喜愛的電腦，畢竟從 Windows 平板電腦推出以來一路上也用了六七台 Windows 平板電腦，然而 Surface Pro 系列除了可當平板電腦使用之外，強悍的硬體效能其實拿來當筆記型電腦也相當足夠，再搭配上 Surface Pro 4 實體鍵盤保護蓋讓 Surface Pro 4 搖身一變成為一台相當稱職的筆記型電腦用都不是問題，究竟 Surface Pro 4 值不值得入手呢？就 Leo 來簡單跟大家分析一下吧！首先來看...
Abstract: 《前言》： 至從微軟在2012年發表了以win8為開發基礎的sutface系列平板筆電後，小弟就深深喜愛上這種由2 in 1為設計理念的產品（平板＋電腦）。然而當時Surface一代採用低效能處理器以及並未引進台灣的原因，再加上小弟使用VAIO時間已久，於是乎就購入當時可謂跨時代產品設計的 VAIO DUO 11 。VAIO DUO 11以平板為基礎，掀開即為筆電的設計，在當時清一色以傳統筆電為概念的市場上，即吸引住小弟的目光。在之後這3年的歲月裡，經歷SONY為了減債而把VAIO給捨棄並退出國際市場的情...
Abstract: Microsoft Surface Pro 系列一直是阿達非常喜愛的 Windows 產品之一， 不僅效能很不錯、又能隨時變換成平板或筆電模式，可說是一次滿足工作以及生活使用！而前陣子最新一代 Surface Pro 4 也正式在台推出，相較於上一代，從硬體規格、輕薄度、一直到手寫筆等，整體都提升不少，這段期間深度體驗一下這產品，繼續往下看吧！▲ Surface Pro 4 的外包裝盒基本上跟上一代差不多，但設計方面有些微的改變，像是正面變成機器最具特色支架照片，而不是產品名稱，顏色也改用比較清新的白底，...
