The design follows the same style of the Surface Book line and the only exception is the inside stiffening which accommodates the 15” clipboard.
The Redmond-based company has reduced the time it takes to reject the screen from the keyboard. The device part containing the storage, RAM, processor and more it is called the Clipboard, basically the detachable screen part. The other part is composed of the keyboard, extra battery, ports and the graphics processing unit.
The pressure sensitivity of the display has over 4,000 pressure levels. Artists and designers love this new improvement and also the unique Surface Book stylus which comes within the same price.
