The editors liked
Awesome screen
Great battery life
Incredibly thin and light
Type Cover delivers a great typing experience
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
Thin
Light
Excellent screen
High performance
Versatile
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
Larger
Sharper screen within same dimensions
Vastly improved Type Cover
Even better Surface Pen
Fantastically sharp screen
Removal of Microsoft Windows logo feels like it makes the screen bigger
Excellent sound
Performance is top notch
Password-less login works by identifying your face
And is a treat
Magnetic pen attachment now sits on the lef
Brilliant screen
Much improved TypeCover
Surface Pen is still a joy
Keyboard cover is fantastic
Notebook-grade hardware
With processors up to Intel core i7
Optimised for Windows 10
Rich 12.3-inch display
The editors didn't like
Doesn't include keyboard or pen
Lack of ports
Comparably expensive
Type Cover is a bit stinky
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
Expensive
You have to pay extra for the keyboard cover
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
Type Cover still sold separately
Intel Core m3 at entry level
Battery life hasn't improved much
Paint job on the back is very easily scratched
No Type C USB port
Magnet is stronger on the pen
But it still falls off all too easily
Still the occasional black screen of death where the machine won't return from sleep requiring you to go online
The Surface Pro 4 is certainly Microsoft's most stylish and refined personal computing device that I have seen so far (I have yet to see the Surface Book) and it shows that Microsoft is trying to catch up fast with Apple in the design stakes.Technological...
Exceptional display, mostly great performance, USB 3.0, slimmer but still tough build, quality peripherals, sharp cameras, Windows 10 Pro
Mid-range model can struggle with demanding editing tasks, battery life shorter than hoped, separate £110 Type Cover
The Surface Pro 4 is a powerful, secure and flexible device with a fantastic display. It doesn't last as long as we'd like in terms of battery life, but the blend of high-end hardware and enterprise-grade software should have Apple and others very worried...

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
A host of small refinements cements the Surface Pro 4's position as the best-in-class Windows tablet -- so long as you're prepared to pay extra for the required keyboard cover accessory...
New Type Cover is wonderful, Pen is standard and works well, Pixel-dense display, Strong performance in all areas
Still heavy compared to dedicated tablets, Battery can drain quickly in real-world use
The Surface Pro 4 is a microcosm of the change Microsoft is trying to spur inside its own walls. Time and time again, it missed the opportunity to leap on a new trend in consumer technology. But not with Surface. This time, Microsoft is a leader. It's s...

Abstract: Nobody knows what to make of the Microsoft Surface. It's neat looking, but kind of awkward. Great at certain things and oddly tantalizing, But who's it really for? Ack, fuck it. This latest hybrid iteration, the Surface Pro 4, is a refinement of sorts and...
