In a shock reveal on Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled its first laptop, a device it claims has double the performance of Apple's MacBook Pro. Indeed, Microsoft says its new "Surface Book" is the fastest 13-inch laptop ever made. Not only that, the screen is detachable to convert into a tablet when needed.

The display is 13.5-inches with 267ppi, giving it the same pixel density as the Surface Pro 4. The screen is optically bonded to the glass, giving it an incredibly thin display. Inside, the Surface Book is using the latest Intel Skylake processors, GDDR5 RAM and an Nvidia GeForce GPU.


"Muscle wire" technology allows it to switch between a laptop and tablet with ease. The GPU is in the base, meaning the device gets full power when plugged into its keyboard. Those who want full power in tablet mode are catered for, however, as the keyboard can fold up behind the laptop.
Like the Pro 4, Microsoft has also paid special attention to making the keyboard one of the best on the market. With backlit keys, a glass trackpad and multi-touch sensing, Microsoft has pushed to ensure that the keyboard doesn't suffer from some of the pitfalls laptop keyboards have typically suffered from. The company boasts 1.6mm key travel and silent typing.

The device has 12 hours battery life, giving it the same all-day battery life as its competitors, despite the fact that it comes with one of the most impressive specs ever seen in a PC of this size.

PRICE:-
The Surface Book starts at $1499 and is available October 26
