Expanding the Surface family, Microsoft has unveiled Surface Studio, Surface Dial and a more powerful Surface Book along with an announcement that a major update is coming to more than 400 million Windows 10 devices in early 2017.

Starting at $2,999, Surface Studio is a new class of device that transforms from a workstation into a powerful digital canvas, unlocking a more natural and immersive way to create on the thinnest LCD monitor ever built.

With ultra-HD 4.5K screen, Surface Studio delivers 63 percent more pixels than a state-of-the-art 4K TV.

The device works beautifully with pen, touch and Surface Dial – a new input device designed for the creative process that lets you use two hands on the screen to compose and create in all new ways, Microsoft said.

Surface Studio has 28-inch PixelSense display with what they call a ‘zero gravity hinge’ that allows the screen to effortlessly adjust to each stage of the creative process.

When the screen transition takes place from Desktop Mode to Studio Mode, it becomes ideal for sketching, writing and designing.

Other than the AiO PC, Microsoft also introduced $2,399 Surface Book with Performance Base, making the most powerful laptop in its class even better.

The three new Surface Book models feature 6th Generation Intel Core i7 processors and pack more than twice the graphics processing power as the original Surface Book. Surface Book brings 16 hours of battery life, as claimed by Microsoft.

Don’t expect any of these to launch in India, and for their prices, we’re glad they won’t.
