it looks like a copy of macbook, and I love microsoft for that, actually might buy this because of that fact.

the tablet laptop thing is a must if you spend a lot of time in front of a computer. Unfortunately, sometimes you need a keyboard to answer emails and get stuff done.




What, a copy of a MacBook with a touch screen, pen operation, a serious GPU, and a detachable screen that works as a tablet running iPad-style apps?

Still waiting for a MacBook that does any of that ;-)


I would never be caught with an Apple product built on the backs of millions of Chinese children and women in horrible and tyrannical working conditions.

If this turns out to be the same case I will also denounce and boycott it.


What makes you think this isn't made in China? It's going to be a similar group of OEMs making the parts.


Actually, that does raise the question of what are you typing this post on right now?


Good luck avoiding all electronics with parts from China :P


While I agree with the rest, what do you mean by "serious GPU"? GPUs seem exactly the same as MBP offers.


13-inch MacBook Pro has Intel Iris 6100 Graphics, no?


Yes. And Surface has 5200. It's even worse.


Microsoft compared the Surface Pro 4 with the MacBook Air and the Surface Book with the 13in MacBook Pro.

It didn't compare either with, say, a Dell Precision mobile workstation that delivers serious power...


Thanks for clearing that up. I got confused by names and expected "Pro" to mean the same in both camps.
