Tencent Digital (Wen Xin) According to the Business Insider website, Microsoft and Apple are the oldest players in the PC market. This fall, they have introduced new notebooks for professional users with high processing power requirements. Surface Book is a notebook released by Microsoft last year. Its performance has been greatly improved this year; for the first time in nearly 4 years, the design of the MacBook Pro has undergone major changes. Business Insider said that both notebooks have added enough new features to appeal to their fans. However, after careful study of these two notebooks, Business Insider had to admit that, even after involving in the PC hardware field, Microsoft had the upper hand in the two strong competition. Wonderful video recommendation: The following are the reasons listed by Business Insider: Introduction to MacBook Pro Apple MacBook Pro has been completely redesigned, comparable to MacBook Air in light and thin, but processing power is quite powerful, it also configures Apple's high-resolution retina display. But the key feature of the new MacBook Pro is Touch Bar. The Touch Bar is a touch bar located above the MacBook Pro keyboard. The number of displayed function keys varies according to the user's application. The MacBook Pro comes in two sizes: 13 or 15 inches. The new MacBook Pro also has no Touch Bar model, but this article will only focus on the Touch Bar model. Surface Book Introduction Surface Book is the result of Microsoft's quest for the so-called "Ultimate Notebook." For this reason, the Surface Book has a high processing power, a beautiful large-sized touch screen, and a Surface Pen stylus for note-taking and sketching. If you want to get more processing power, users can choose to configure a higher model: Some models Surface Book configuration has its own significant - suitable for playing games or complete creative work. Microsoft recently introduced Surface Book with Performance Base, with a higher processing power. However, the most popular feature of Surface Book is that the display can be separated from the keyboard and turned into a full tablet. price MacBook Pro: 13-inch model starting price of 1799 US dollars (about 12410 yuan), 15-inch model starting price of 1999 US dollars (about 13,790 yuan). High-end models (more memory, more powerful processors, and more memory) will be more expensive. Surface Book: Starting price is 1499 US dollars (about 10341 yuan), including Surface Pen stylus. The standalone Surface Book starts at US$1,899 (approximately RMB13,100), and the Performance Base model starts at US$2,400 (approximately RMB16,556). Models with larger capacity memory or storage are also more expensive. Winner: Surface Book. Although the MacBook Pro is cheaper, the Surface Book contains more features and more powerful processing capabilities, such as single display. Display screen MacBook Pro: The high-resolution retina screen is just a standard display. It does not support touch functionality and does not support stylus. However, there is a touch screen above the MacBook Pro keyboard. The Touch Bar replaces the standard physical function keys and changes with the software used by the user. It is still fully customizable, so users choose to replace them with the most used shortcuts. However, after all, the Touch Bar cannot be compared with a full touch screen. For example, when using the Touch Bar to edit a picture, the image size is too small to be seen clearly. Touch Bar is just a new way to use function keys. Surface Book: Surface Book configures a colorful, vivid touch screen. This means that the user can control the web page by clicking or other actions, or switch the application by clicking the icon on the task bar, or perform other operations comfortably by touching the action. In addition, the included Surface Pen allows users to write and write notes on the screen through pre-installed Microsoft OneNote or other applications. One weird thing about Surface Book is its 3:2 aspect ratio. This means that the proportion of Word documents and photos displayed on the screen is the same as that printed on the printing paper. As a result, black bars appear on both sides of the screen, for example, when watching a movie that was shot with a standard aspect ratio. Winner: Surface Book. Both computers are equipped with extremely high-resolution display screens, but the touch screen and stylus on the Surface Book allow users to perform more sophisticated tasks. In contrast, the MacBook Pro's Touch Bar is an innovation, but it feels limited. operating system MacBook Pro: MacBook Pro runs macOS Sierra - Apple's latest version of the Mac operating system. If you already use Apple services such as iCloud, iMessage, or Siri, macOS integrates all your Apple devices seamlessly. Surface Book: Surface Book is designed to showcase the power of Windows 10, highlighting many of its best features including touch. Although it is not as integrated with the iPhone as the MacBook Pro, users can use the Microsoft Xiaona Voice Assistant to send and receive text messages from the paired Android phone. In addition, Windows PC is the most suitable personal computer platform for playing games. Winner: Draw, depending on user preferences. macOS Sierra and Windows 10 are all excellent operating systems. The biggest advantage of Windows is games. Processing capacity MacBook Pro MacBook Pro has several models for users to choose, they are configured with different processors, and different capacities of memory and storage space. For the sake of simplicity of discussion, this article only deals with low and top models. Processor: A 13-inch model is equipped with a dual-core Intel Core i5 processor with a clock speed of 2.9 GHz. The top model is equipped with a dual-core Intel Core i7 processor with a clock frequency of 3.3 GHz; the 15-inch model with a low configuration clock frequency is 2.6 GHz. The quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, the top model, is equipped with a quad-core Intel Core i7 processor clocked at 2.9GHz. Memory: 13-inch model comes standard with 8GB of memory, up to 16GB of memory; 15-inch models are unified configuration 16GB of memory. Storage space: 13 inches low with 256GB storage space, top model with 1TB storage space; 15 inches low with 256GB storage space, top model with 2TB storage space. Graphics card: 13-inch model comes standard with Intel Iris Graphics 550 core graphics; 15-inch model comes standard with 2GB of memory Radeon Pro 455 graphics card, top models are configured with integrated 4GB memory Radeon Pro 460 graphics card. Battery Life: Apple claims that the MacBook Pro battery life can be as long as 10 hours, but in our test, the battery life is no more than 8 hours. Surface Book Similar to the MacBook Pro, the Surface Book is also available in multiple configurations, although they are configured with the same 13.5-inch display. Processor: The Intel Core i5 processor is configured for the lower model, and the Core i7 processor is configured for the Surface Book with Performance Base. Memory: All models Surface Book memory capacity is 8-16GB of memory. Storage: The low profile Surface Book storage capacity is 128GB, and the low performance model Performance Base storage capacity is 256GB. Their top model storage capacity can be up to 1TB. The low profile graphics card with Surface Book configuration Intel HD Core Graphics, compared with most other notebooks have little advantage. The standalone model is configured with custom GeForce graphics cards. The Surface Book with Performance Base features a GeForce GTX 965M graphics card with 2GB GDDR5 memory. Battery life The Surface Book comes with two batteries: one on the tablet and one on the keyboard dock. According to Microsoft, the low-profile Surface Book can play 12 hours of video, and the Performance Base model can reach 16 hours. In our test, the core model Surface Book can last for 7-8 hours and the Performance Base can reach 8-10 hours. Winner: Surface Book. The two notebooks are quite similar in terms of this indicator, but we still think Surface Book has an advantage because of its powerful graphics processing capabilities, especially the Perfomance Base. The strong graphics processing capability is favored by heavy game players or creative workers. . interface MacBook Pro: There is only one interface on the MacBook Pro: Thunderbolt 3, which can perform a variety of tasks - charging the computer itself, connecting other accessories, and outputting video. It is also compatible with the USB-C standard. However, connecting old accessories to the new MacBook Pro is a big problem. Users need to buy new adapters or cables. After a large number of user complaints, Apple decided to temporarily lower the price of USB-C accessories to facilitate the transition to this new interface. However, the new MacBook Pro still lacks a large number of interfaces that professional users like. It lacks SD card slot, HDMI interface, Ethernet interface or standard USB interface. However, it still integrates a standard headphone jack. Surface Book: Surface Book is equipped with a relatively large number of interfaces: 1 SD card slot, 2 USB ports, 1 mini-HDMI, and of course the headphone jack. As a small benefit, the Surface Book charger itself has another USB port for charging other devices, but it can only be used for charging, not for tasks such as syncing with a mobile phone. However, Surface Book is not perfect in terms of interface. Although USB-C is increasingly popularized by Apple and Google, the current model Surface Book still does not support this interface. Winner: Surface Book. Although no one doubts the future potential of USB-C, the reality is that many professionals still need traditional interfaces, such as interfaces on the Surface Book. Which one should I buy? It depends on the use. Many users who work on video editing, programming, etc., need more processing power and more interfaces, and they are very fond of designing MacBook Pro. As some review articles point out: The MacBook Pro is more of a "production consumer" device. For most people, it is a great computer, but heavy users will find it inadequate. The Surface Book is designed to handle powerful office computers. As a Windows PC, it's great, but Windows fans have cheaper products to choose from. The Surface Book is small, but its processing power makes it an attractive spare tire for Apple fans. In the eyes of everyone, it is an excellent computer. in conclusion Surface Book is more suitable for professional users and gamers, and it beats MacBook in almost every aspect. Of course, the MacBook's production quality, beautiful design, and MacOS Sierra are also excellent. For users who like Apple products and Thunderbolt/USB-C interface, MacBook Pro will not let them feel disappointed.
