How sad is it that the company that makes Windows has the most forgettable and disappointing hardware line-up?

I'm not surprised. It's Microsoft. I'm just sad.

The Surface Pros pretty much revamped the entire 2-in-1 form factor and the Surface Book was a really cool neat little device even though it was ridiculously pricey.

There was a time where Microsoft made some pretty exciting and cool hardware. The Neo was a really neat concept but nothing that came out since they unveiled and cancelled that thing has been interesting.

It doesn't help that they typically release with processors that aren't always the latest. If I'm looking for a Surface Pro now, I'd honestly much rather get Asus's Z13. I just wish that came with an AMD CPU instead.

I like my surface pro. It's a pretty nice little device. I just wish they made it more repairable

If it wasn't Microsoft, the Surface Studio is kind of intriguing. There aren't really that many options that are that similar.

The advertisement for the Studio was insane!
