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

Microsoft's Surface Pro devices are regularly best-in-class, and looking at the latest model, it's easy to see why. An eye-catching and attractive chassis houses a gorgeous display and seriously impressive internal hardware, resulting in a machine that ca...
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:
Money aside, the Surface Pro has matured into an excellent, all-round portable. However, when taking into account the price it's arguably highly priced for what it offers...
Excellent keyboard and trackpad, stunning screen, slender design
Doesn't ship with keyboard or dock, battery life isn't great, the price, Rating:
Forget about money for a second and the Microsoft Surface is an incredible product. It's a tablet, it's a laptop replacement and it could even be a desktop replacement too...

The Surface Pro 4 is an excellent poster child for Windows 10, and Microsoft's new focus on mobility looks to be paying off. It feels light and portable with an excellent display, while still packing in enough power to smash through most day-to-day tasks...

Excellent battery life, Bright and colourful screen, Compact and light design, Powerful hardware
Only one USB port, Can feel unstable when typing, No Surface Pen
The updated Surface Pro is Microsoft's most powerful and most portable computing device to date - and with its new keyboard options, also the most stylish...
Although it's early days and we still need to run our full suite of tests on the Surface Book and Surface Pro 4, they should both appeal to their target audiences. As it has always been, the Surface Pro 4 is suited to those who want a tablet and, occasion...
The Surface Laptop isn't the most affordable laptop around but it's not outrageous either compared to rivals. Microsoft has done a great job of creating a well-made, thin and desirable laptop. We'd tweak the ports on offer and upgrade from Windows 10 S to...

The £1,000-2,000 laptop market is very crowded, and it takes something really interesting to stand out. Every manufacturer, including Dell and HP, is making a really good, well-designed 13in laptop in this price range that will take you through three or f...

great screen, brilliant keyboard (optional), microSD card reader, excellent kickstand, Windows Hello, fast but quiet, solid build
battery life only just acceptable, no USBC, expensive
The new Surface Pro is the best example of what can be made out of a full-fledged Windows 10 tablet-laptop hybrid. It has all the power most will need, a great screen, good kickstand, decent speakers and an excellent set of accessories, including an attac...
