Microsoft is finally showing the world how to make cool PCs.The Surface Studio is easily the most attention-grabbing new PC design of the season, even if most of its individual ideas -- external control knobs, tabletop PCs -- have been seen before in different contexts.
Surface Studio is an entirely new device designed for the creative process. Its roomy and adjustable 28-inch PixelSense Display provides a huge canvas for all kinds of work. Position it upright to sketch, paint, and edit photos, or lay it flat to draw on it like a drafting table. With Surface Studio, the possibilities are limitless.
Strikingly large and incredibly thin, the razor-sharp PixelSense Display draws you in with its immersive picture quality. Lose yourself in 10-bit color depth, visualize ideas as you paint, edit, and design, then watch your ideas leap off the screen with 13.5 million pixels of true-to-life color and clarity. From across the room or just 10 inches away, the view is always inspiring.
With 6th Gen Intel Core processors and discrete NVIDIA GeForce graphics, Surface Studio is the ultimate device for running professional-grade software like SOLIDWORKS, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Autodesk1. And when paired with Surface Pen and Surface Dial, these powerful applications take creative versatility to a whole new level.
Get more from Surface Studio with Surface Pen and Surface Dial1. Pen rests in your hand comfortably for natural writing and erasing. It features 1,024 levels of pressure sensitivity and a working eraser. And with Dial, simply click and hold it to display a radial menu of tools that make it easier and faster to work in applications like Adobe Creative Cloud, Bluebeam1, and more.
The Good The Surface Studio has a fantastic 28-inch screen with excellent color, mounted on smooth hinges that fold down to an artist-friendly angle. The excellent Surface Pen stylus returns and the new Surface Dial shows promise. Every model has good-to-great dedicated graphics hardware.
The Bad Surface Studio is extremely expensive, and doesn't include the flashy Dial accessory by default. It skips newer graphics chips that support VR hardware. Support for the Dial is limited right now, and even compatible programs don't always use it in a practical way. A couple of front-mounted USB ports or a Thunderbolt connection would've been nice.
The Bottom Line Microsoft's ambitious love letter to creative professionals is the touchscreen iMac of your dreams -- albeit crazy expensive and running Windows.
