Also to note the 8th gen mobile Intel processors are a huge improvement over the 7th gen - more of a leap than ever. Reason being is they had to be so aggressive and forgo the controlled incremental performance bumps because they had no competition really...now with AMD's new mobile CPU+GPU chips soon releasing that are expected to be very strong.
That said, the Surface Book Pro form factor is really nice, but I'll stick with my Dell XPS 13 for the same price with the 8th gen I got a month ago.
Regarding 4k laptop screens vs 1080p:
Huge downsides to those super res screens negates any prettiness or utility IMHO:
1)Eats more battery to power those pixels,
2)doesn't play nice with many apps & programs with win 10's need to try and up size everything 200% or whatever like the OS does and
3)on such a small screen it isn't nearly the improvement of moving to 4k on a large TV
Could you share the link to the product you mentioned? I'd like to check it out. In the market for a laptop... My Macbook Pro died on me after only 3 years of use.
Thanks
I don't know about Surface Book but I own a Surface Pro 4 and I think Microsoft has hit the nail in the head. Its all quality and versatile. I just wish the price can be lower a bit.
Thank you!
