Microsoft's tablets are very distinctive, mainly the Surface series of 2-in-1 products, and the line between them and laptops is blurred, and most of the products can be regarded as both large-size tablets and small-sized laptops.
 
The Surface series is equipped with Windows 10 system, and the Android tablet, iPad is fundamentally different in the processor architecture, using the same x86 architecture processor as the computer, which occupies an absolute advantage in performance, but the relative power consumption is higher, and the dependence on hardware is greater. Android tablets and iPads are ARM-based processors with low power consumption and high execution efficiency, but their absolute performance is not as good as that of x86 architecture processors.
 
In addition, the biggest advantage of the Windows tablet is that it is highly compatible with the desktop system, with Bluetooth keyboards and other accessories, it can be used as a small computer, and the office efficiency is much higher than that of the Android tablet and iPad. It's just that although there are a lot of applications on Windows tablets, many applications are not optimized for the tablet interface, the icons are too small, and if you are separated from the mouse and keyboard, the touch accuracy is difficult to guarantee, and the experience in tablet mode is relatively poor.
 
The Surface series includes Surface Pro, Surface Book, and Surface Laptop, as well as the newly released Surface GO, which is a 2-in-1 tablet except for the Surface Laptop, which is a traditional 13.5-inch notebook.
 
However, even if it is the same two-in-one product, the positioning of the three is also different, Surface Book is positioned the highest, and the size is also the largest, reaching 13.5/15 inches, the keyboard base is standard, and the configurations are also on par with the notebook, and the high-end i7 processor version is equipped with GTX 1050 custom independent graphics card, strictly speaking, this is already a laptop, it seems a little inappropriate to call it a tablet, and its main competitor is the Apple Macbook Pro series, More often than not, it is used as an alternative to traditional notebooks.
 
In contrast, the Surface Pro and Surface GO are positioned as high-performance tablets, and the full functionality of the whole machine can be realized only through the tablet part, and its keyboard is not standard and needs to be purchased additionally.
 
The Surface Pro series has now come out to Surface Pro 6, which can be regarded as a low-profile version of Surface Book, but this low-profile is only relative to Surface Book, in terms of configuration, Surface Pro 6 is still a high-end product, mainly because the screen size is reduced to 12.3 inches, the resolution is slightly lower than that of Surface Book, and there is no independent graphics version, but the processor and storage configuration are the same as Surface Book is no different, and the PPI is also 267. In terms of price, the Surface Pro 6 with the same configuration is nearly 3000 yuan lower than the Surface Book, and even if you count the extra keyboard, it will be 2000 yuan lower, if you don't want to replace the laptop, Surface Pro may be more suitable. However, the biggest drawback of the Surface Pro 6 is that it is not equipped with a Type-C port, and it cannot use devices such as adapters and docking stations with the Type-C interface, which is extremely unfriendly to users who have transitioned to USB-C for other devices.
 
If you must use the original Type-C interface device and the budget is relatively limited, then you can only choose Microsoft's newly launched Surface GO. Microsoft's official positioning of the Surface Go is smaller, lighter, and more people can use it, and its market positioning is lower than that of the Surface Pro, with a larger screen bezel, and it is lower than the Surface Pro in terms of resolution, processor, storage space, etc., but it uses a USB-C interface, and it is difficult to understand Microsoft's thoughts.
 
In terms of use, the Surface Go is basically the same as its Surface series products, and the stand behind it can still be opened 165°, which is convenient for users to use their fingers or stylus. The price of the Bank of China starts at 2988 yuan, which is only equivalent to about 60% of the Surface Pro 6 with the same storage capacity, which can be regarded as "conscience pricing".
