Microsoft Surface Pro is the latest Surface Pro series computer released by Microsoft. In a sense, it is an upgraded version of Surface Pro4.
In terms of appearance, there are not many changes between the two computers. The difference is mainly reflected in the slight arc of the metal frame of Surface Pro, while Surface Pro4 does not.
Compared with Surface Pro 4, Surface Pro has three major upgrades in terms of performance. First, the maximum pivot angle is increased from 150° to 165°. This means that the angle between the Surface Pro screen and the desktop is reduced from 30° to 15°, which is equivalent to half of the Surface Pro 4. For people like painters and designers who need to work on the screen for long periods of time, reducing the included angle in half can reduce fatigue by half. Secondly, Surface Pro adopts a fanless design, which eliminates the noise generated when the fan is running. This means users can enjoy a quieter working environment when using Surface Pro. Third, Surface Pro’s battery life is 50% longer than Surface Pro 4. The officially announced battery life is 13.5 hours, which means users no longer have to worry about running out of battery when going out. Overall, Surface Pro’s performance improvements allow users to use the device more comfortably, enjoy longer battery life, and reduce noise interference. This is a very beneficial upgrade for users who need to operate the screen for a long time.
If you read a lot of information about Microsoft products online, in order to understand it more intuitively, I suggest you go to Microsoft’s offline experience store to experience it in person. Microsoft offline experience stores have been opened in many first- and second-tier cities. You can check and choose the most convenient offline experience store in Microsoft’s official store to learn more about the products on site. This way you can more fully evaluate the performance and functionality of Microsoft products.
is Windows Vista
Microsoft Corporation demonstrated the Windows Vista Beta 2 test version for the first time at the 10th China International Software Expo, which shows their emphasis on and development of the next generation operating system. This public appearance also provides users with a glimpse of the future Windows operating system.
According to Microsoft's plan, the Windows Vista Enterprise Edition is scheduled to be launched in November this year, while the Personal Edition will be launched in January next year. Vista will be divided into six core editions, including Home Basic Edition, Home Premium Edition, Ultimate Edition, Business Edition, Enterprise Edition and Lite Edition for developing countries. It is reported that the pricing of various versions of Vista has been basically determined. Vista Home Basic is expected to sell for $255.55, while Home Premium is expected to cost $511.10.
Although Microsoft has high expectations for Vista, it has experienced a series of setbacks during its development process. Not only was the release delayed several times, Microsoft's CEO was even pressured to step down. This has also caused the domestic industry to pay close attention to the release of Vista, because Vista has been placed on Microsoft's important hopes for industrial expansion. According to reports, Vista will have Microsoft's latest browser IE7 built-in, and will have Microsoft's search tools built-in for the first time. It will also have powerful anti-virus functions. The addition of these features has significantly improved Vista's security and user experience. However, the development process of Vista was not smooth, resulting in the final released version not fully achieving the expected results. Nonetheless, Vista is still considered an important step for Microsoft's future development. It provides users with a better browsing and search experience while also paying more attention to security. Microsoft's expectations and efforts for Vista reflect its commitment to the market
Yesterday, Microsoft released the Chinese version of its customer relationship management software Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0, which also marked Microsoft's official entry into the domestic enterprise application software market. This software was independently completed by Microsoft's China R&D team, which also worries domestic software companies.
