The Surface Pro 3 is closer than Microsoft has ever been to making good on that vision. Its two-in-one Tablet, with keyboard it is laptop and without keyboard it is tablet.
Design
Yeah, Microsoft jumped the Surface Pro touchscreen from a tiny 10.6 inches to a far roomier 12 inches. In the process, the pixel count has been upped from 1920 x 1080 to 2160 x 1440 The result is a modest boost in pixels per inch - 207 ppi to 216 ppi - given the increase in screen real estate.
One More thing important is Microsoft's interesting choice in aspect ratio. Rather than sticking with the Pro 2's 16:9 or glomming onto the iPad's 4:3, the firm went with a 3:2 aspect ratio. The company just claims that, with this aspect ratio, this 12-inch screen can actually display more content than the MacBook Air's 13.3-inch panel at 16:10. The move was also made to make the tablet feel more like your average notepad when held in vertical orientation.

The best keyboard, for a tablet
The minus point of the Surface Pro has always been that the single coolest thing about it doesn't actually come in the box. The excellent type cover, which acts as a screen protector, full keyboard, and touchpad interface, stubbornly remains a sold-separately accessory, despite the fact that We cannot imagine anyone ever buying a Surface without one. It's expensive for an add-on keyboard, but it's also still the main wow factor of the Surface.
The all new cover for Surface Pro 3 is larger than its predecessors, although the older versions will still work, they just won't cover the entire screen when the flap is closed. It feels like the best tablet keyboard you can buy, while still falling short of a decent budget laptop keyboard. The secondary hinge, really just a line near the top edge you can fold the cover along, lifts the rear up and holds it against the body via a magnetic connection, giving you a more natural typing angle. It's an excellent ergonomic improvement, although it makes typing louder and clackier.
