Microsoft today launched its Surface Pro device in the UAE sporting a longer battery life, enhanced performance and a superior display. The new Surface Pro’s battery allows users to keep working for up to 13.5 hours in front of a stunning 12.3-inch PixelSense Display. According to the company it has a fan-less design that will make it the quietest Surface Microsoft has ever produced. And the Surface Pro enjoys a hyper-slim profile that means it weighs less than the bag it will be carried in.
“Powered by Windows 10, the Surface Pro has been re-engineered from the bottom up, to deliver on Microsoft’s ongoing pledge – to help every individual and organisation on the planet to achieve more,” said Mohammed Arif, Windows & Devices Business Group Lead, Microsoft Gulf. “From its potent Core processors to its broad, bright, densely pixelated display, the new Surface Pro exudes a best-in-class aura that we are confident will continue that success story.”
The Surface Pro Signature Type Cover is designed for optimum portability and convenience, wrapped in luxurious Alcantara material that comes in rich tone-on-tone colours, including Platinum, Burgundy and Cobalt Blue. And the new Surface Pen enables creativity like never before, with enhanced responsiveness that allows drawing on the device’s screen as if it were paper.
Built for the most demanding professionals, the new Surface Pro has been re-engineered to run the most resource-hungry applications. Its 7th-generation Intel Core m3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors work to bring the highest standards of performance. Users can choose from a range of configurations, from the Intel Core m3 with 4GB RAM and 128GB of SSD storage, to the Intel Core i7 with 16 GB RAM and 1TB of SSD storage. Each option is designed and priced for the demands of different use-cases, so consumers and businesses can choose the Surface that suits their needs.
The re-engineered Surface Pro ships with Windows 10 Creators Update and has been designed for the applications you need to be productive. The device has been optimised for Windows Hello and Microsoft Office 365, with new inking features in Word, Excel and PowerPoint designed to work best with the new Surface Pen on Surface Pro.
Beginning September 20th with prices starting at AED 4,499, the Surface Pro including the type cover will be available for consumers to buy from here or from major electronics retailers across the UAE, and for commercial customers from here.
