Starting at $2,999 to $4,199 Product Page: https://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Surface... *Surface Dial included edit: as pointed out below you do get a Surafce Dial with the purchase of the studio. I originally looked at the "what's included" section where the dial was not listed.

Compared to a 27" Cintiq QHD Touch, the pricing is very competitive.

Better yet, compare it to the cost of both a Cintiq and a PC. A Cintiq is just a monitor/drawing tablet.

As a side note, it's amazing to see that despite everyone ragging on apple and claiming superiority to them, they all copy their advertising style. The copy on the google pixel site and this site are both very obviously apple-ish. edit: down vote away, doesn't change the fact that these websites scream "we want to be apple". Though I will say, the tides are changing for apple judging by the amount of people hurt by t…

you mean the CGI flybys of the unit being virtually constructed? Yeah APple pioneered that idea, I actually didn't like that part of the surface PC promo.. Like who cares what the internal hinges look like!? They need to stop doing close flybys of irrelevant subjects The usability portions of the video were awesome though

The copy's very Apple-like, though it occasionally stumbles in the attempt, as with the header "Runs Office & Windows perfectly."

The two things that Macbooks have had over Windows laptops, in my opinion, is high resolution screens and a fantastic trackpad. Windows laptops, even on the high end, still tend to screens no better than 1080p and crappy touchpads. My wife hates the touchpad so much she always uses a mouse and has the trackpad disabled. I just got an HP Elite x2, which is basically a Surface Pro and I really like the pen and touch in…

So I've not tried enough windows touchpads to comment on that, but from what I've seen there's quite a few Windows laptops with higher res screens than 1080p e.g. Dell XPS 13 - can have a 3200x1800 screen Lenovo Carbon X1 - can have a 2560x1440 screen HP Elitebook G3 - Can have a 2560x1440 screen Microsoft surface book - 3000x2000 screen Microsoft Surface Pro 4 - 2736 x 1824 screen

I didn't mean to imply that there are none. I meant that they are incredibly rare if you consider the number of Windows laptop models available. The vast majority have either 1366x768 (low end laptops) or 1920x1080.
