![]() ![]() To top it all off, it is a 10-point touchscreen, as well, making it perfectly suitable to use as a tablet for quick browsing or reviewing of videos and images. I do want to note that there is an “Enhanced” profile that tweaks these colors for better visuals, but I wouldn’t use it for color-critical work like video and photo editing, even if it is more pleasing to the eye. It is sharp, bright, and very accurate when set to the sRGB profile. ![]() One thing that I think Microsoft nailed is the 12.3" PixelSense display, with outstanding 2736 x 1824 resolution for 267 ppi. The microSD slot could’ve been full size, but I know these are just some of the issues when you start to slim down and miniaturize these devices. Personally, I do wish that the Surface Pro had a USB Type-C and/or Thunderbolt™ 3 port, either in addition to the USB 3.0 ports or to replace the Mini DisplayPort, because many current computers in this price range now offer it as a standard feature. To get back to the point, it is a sleek machine, and there are just enough ports on it to keep most of us happy. ![]() It’s something I enjoy carrying around, the 12.3" size is perfect for everyday carry, and the keyboard itself is properly sized, though I will always miss the keypad whenever I use a laptop to tablet-but that’s another story. Though some of you may disagree, I enjoy the look of the Surface Pro, especially when you add on the optional Signature Type Cover, with its soft Alcantara material. I’m hoping the Surface Pro will be that ideal commuting machine. I’m not exactly an average user, however, since I often use a MacBook Air to perform light video-editing duties that my iPad Pro cannot (such as running full applications-for instance, DaVinci Resolve), and I have been dreaming of the day when they could bring the two products into a single cohesive unit so I can stop carrying both, or choosing between one or the other before I leave for the day. The Surface Pro, now in its sixth iteration, is an interesting in-between option that may be perfect for many of today’s workers. Conceptually speaking, the Microsoft Surface Pro might be the leading example of what modern computing has become, with many users not needing a full-fledged desktop setup, and others requiring just a bit more than what your average tablet can provide. ![]()
