Microsoft has unveiled a new Surface Pro laptop which it touts as having 35% more battery life and 1.7x more computing performance than the iPad Pro.

Surface Pro continues the iconic look and feel of previous Surface Pros, but has been completely redesigned from the inside out. We’ve optimized every millimeter, with over 800 new custom parts and used 99% of the space inside the device – to give people exactly what they need to work and create anytime, anywhere.

The new Surface Pro starts at 1.7lbs and 8.5mm thin. It has up to 13.5 hours of battery life and a 7th generation Intel Core processor. A redesigned hinge has full 165-degree range of motion enabling 'Studio Mode', an angle inspired by the Surface Studio for writing, sketching, and drawing.
