Personally I have not got close to nine hours out of my Surface Pro 4, but I have a lot of Chrome browser tabs open and do a lot of image editing. This compares to nine hours with the Surface Pro 4 which is a massive 50% improvement, though it is worth noting the figures refer solely to video playback. The shift to Kaby Lake is a big deal and with it comes Microsoft’s bold claim that the New Surface Pro will last up to 13.5 hours on a single charge. So while Apple may have gone too far in replacing every port on its MacBook Pros with USB Type-C, Microsoft has definitely not gone far enough. At least Bluetooth moves from v4.0 to 4.1. Meanwhile the proprietary Surface Connector power port remains alongside mini DisplayPort, a microSD slot and just one full-sized USB 3.0 port. Remarkably USB Type-C is nowhere to be seen on the New Surface Pro other than via a supplied dongle.

With the arrival of the New Surface Pro Microsoft is finally adding the option for integrated 4G LTE. Then again why you’d want to opt for Windows 10 S ( given its obvious limitations ), is beyond me.Ĭonnectivity - One Step Forward, One Step Back Software - Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 SĪt launch the New Surface Pro will ship with Windows 10 Pro, but Microsoft has confirmed it will also sell the range with Windows 10 S eventually. What is unchanged are RAM options (4GB, 8GB or 16GB of 1866Mhz LPDDR3) and storage (128GB, 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB via a PCIe NVMe SSD). Microsoft claims the top end i7 model will be quieter than ever, though it does pack a fan which also accounts for an extra 20g in overall weight. Interestingly both the m3 and i5 variants will be fanless and therefore silent. Core i7-7660U with Iris Plus Graphics 640.The range moves to Intel’s ‘Kaby Lake’ chipsets with the following options: What does help give the New Surface Pro some laptop credentials, however, is its upgraded specs.
