There's no doubt about it, the Surface Pro 3 was wildly successful, even going as far as to inspire third parties to make their own 2-in-1s in a similar vein. It should come as no surprise then that when the next iteration rolled around, it delivered only slight refinements over its predecessor. And that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The slimmer form factor and increased display size do wonders for the Surface Pro 4. Even the Type Cover has seen subtle changes.

An Intel Smart Sound Technology patch was issued as well, lending audio improvements to the Surface Pro 4's onboard speakers. We can only hope that with the Anniversary Update imminent, which introduces touch-centric features like Windows Ink, any remaining technical barriers can be ironed out altogether. Fortunately, though, Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10 will continue to improve even after this major overhaul. In that case, August 2 can't come soon enough, unless you plan on waiting until then to make the jump from Windows 7 or 8.1.
