Lenovo ideaPad vs Microsoft Surface Pro 4: But Which Is Ahead?

Although they hold similar names, there are stark differences with these two offers.

This is all food for thought for those considering purchasing a Surface Book, as even if you wouldn't consider attempting a fix yourself, someone will have to if the thing goes awry, and that someone won't have an easy time of things.

According to Android Origin, the Surface Pro 4 is designed as a tablet that can be used as a laptop by attaching the Extended Keyboard. First, the screen has been boosted to a 12.3-inch display with a higher pixel density of 267 PPI.

When it comes to memory, both devices can hold up to 16GB worth of RAM.

One stark difference is that users can opt for discrete NVIDIA GPU on the Surface Book.

Last but not least, Microsoft's developers made a decision to update the device's Surface Pen Settings driver to 10.0.302.0 to make room for future Windows 10 functionalities. Which device do you prefer more?

It comes with 6th generation Intel processors and claims to have a 9-hour battery life with storage options starting at 64 GB and expandable to 128 GB, 256 GB and 500 GB.

If budget is a major concern, consumers can save more with going for the smaller Surface Pro 4. Lastly the Surface Pro 3, will provide you with a $350 discount.

The good folks over at iFixit, who are famous for tearing apart bits of hardware and rating how easily repairable they are, have taken the hatchet to the Surface Book. When speaking about the build it's also quite obvious that the Surface Book is bigger than the Surface Pro 4 but a lot of people have been criticizing Microsoft's new hinge mechanism that got featured on the Surface Book because it basically prevents you from fully sealing your Surface Book.
