With each successive Surface, Microsoft has won over new users to its innovative device. Naysayers who questioned the usability of the odd 3:2 aspect ratio screen now accept that for anything but watching wide-screen media, it's actually a likeably useful format, with its gains in screen height very...

The Surface Pro 4 is definitely the best Microsoft has offered so far, the bigger screen is a welcomed addition, the design was improved (although not in a radical way), we really liked the Surface Pen and the way it interacts with the screen and most important, the highly capable internal hardware,...

Premium Design; Great Display; Touchscreen Works Great; The Surface Pen; Great Performance and Configurability

Low Battery Life; The Type Cover Is Not Included; Windows 10 Is Still A Bit Unstable

I traded in my older Surface RT for the Surface Pro 4, and I am generally very pleased. Some bugs remain that need to be worked out, however. For example, like with the RT and my laptop that still operates on Windows 8, the touch screen goes dead unpredictably pending a system reboot.

Brilliant screen; Much improved TypeCover; Surface Pen is still a joy

Lacklustre battery; Trackpad still a little small; A little awkward to use on your lap

T here's something about the Nexus range of devices when it comes to Android (check out our review of the Nexus 6P ). There have always been several alternatives to the Nexus range and many devices have been better specced than the Nexus, but somehow when someone mentions great Android performance,...

Might be a bit pricey, but this tablet/laptop is going to last you an easy 4 years. Performance wise, you're going to be golden unless you're doing really heavy graphic intensive editing or something. A really solid compact choice.

The first thing that you'll note when you see Microsoft's Surface Pro 4 is that it is, beyond a doubt, cool to look at. Microsoft launched the tablet-hybrid in India in January , just a few months after the launch in the US .
