Microsoft's latest ad pits the Surface Pro 4 against the MacBook once again, in an attempt to show that the 2-in-1 device offers many more features than Apple's laptop.
This time, Microsoft is highlighting features like the touchscreen, pen support, and Windows Hello to show why the Surface Pro 4 is so much better than the MacBook Air. While it makes sense for Microsoft to continue to promote its new model, the new ad comes at a time when most users are expecting the next-generation model, with people close to the matter reporting that Redmond is planning to unveil the Surface Pro 5 sometime in October. The current generation launched in October 2015, so the new model could be available exactly a year after its predecessor, which makes sense and also lines up with the debut of other devices, including the third-generation Band smart wristband.
The new model is expected to come with better hardware and an improved keyboard, as well as a new pen device that will be available for the Surface Book 2. Rumor has it that Microsoft is planning to introduce a new Surface Book model in October, so the end of the year could be a busy one for fans of Microsoft's hardware.
