The trackpad also got bigger by 40%, along with the promise of an improved scrolling experience thanks to its glass surface.Ī big part of Surface is undoubtedly the stylus, which Microsoft has also pushed into the next generation. There is also an upgraded version of the signature keyboard, now complete with a fingerprint reader and a new button design, said to improve the all-important typing experience. Now, there is something you don't see every day. The dock still plays a major part of the Surface experience and this new iteration is even convenient enough to be compatible with the accessories of its predecessor, namely the docking station and Type Cover. Of course, most power users will be buying the Surface Pro 4 for its productivity while docked. This all should amount to a beautiful viewing experience and also quite a lot of screen real estate to get your job done on the go. Naturally, the screen has also retained its convenient ten point multi-touch functionality, now more fluent and precise than ever thanks to Microsoft's new PixelSense Display technology. The display is impressively sharp with a resolution of 2736 x 1824 pixels and 267 ppi.

The body was also slimmed-down and now sits at just 8.4mm, while still offering a magnesium build and a kickstand with a full-function multipurpose hinge.

Indeed, the Surface Pro 4 has retained its footprint, but trimming the bezels allowed a more spacious 12.3' display to replace the 12' of the Surface Pro 3. The veritable convertible device has retained most of the design of its predecessor and the exact same form factor as well, while bringing some major improvements. As promised, Microsoft updated its high-end productivity tablet lineup today with the Surface Pro 4.
