Cloud computing and integration - iCloud works better than MS account/OneDrive/Office365. Sleep mode works so well on the MB that many MB owners seldom shut down the computer.ĥ. Sleep mode and especially waking from sleep is something that the MB does much better. With the SP, open the cover, press the power button to wake it, press a key or touch the screen to finish waking it, hope that it didn’t actually shut down rather than sleep. Open the cover and the MB is ready to go. When the MB sleeps it wakes fast and it wakes every time. On the SP the touchpad works 'most of the time' at best.Ĥ. When you pinch, tap, double-tap, or whatever, it does what it is supposed to do. Both the MB and the SP have a multi-gesture touchpad. The MB charges significantly faster and lasts significantly longer than a SP.ģ. The MB just does it right while the SP tries to be like a MB but fails.Ģ. This is a minor difference but it sets the tone for how these machines are different. On the SP you need to start the computer and log in to see if the battery is at 100%. On the MB the light turns from amber to green when the battery gets to 100% charged. For example, the chargers for both the SP and on the MB connect magnetically and have indicator lights to let you know they are connected and charging. There are many little things that make the MB easier to use and less frustrating. Here are a few points to consider if you are trying to decide between a Macbook and a Surface Pro:ġ.

Find someone with a five year-old MB and someone with a five-year old PC and see which person is still happy with their computer.

Apple operating system upgrades are free and won’t slow down the machine to the point where it becomes useless. Another key consideration is that MBs tend to continue to run better for years.

Ask around and you will find many former Windows users that now swear by Macbooks while it is very difficult to find a former MB user that has chosen to switch back to Windows. Get past the cool commercial with people dancing and clicking the SP keyboard on and off and look at the nuts and bolts and you’ll find that unless there is a compelling reason (such as the common "The application I use at work only runs on Windows machines”) to own a SP you will be much happier with the MB. When you look at usability and value the MB wins hands down over the SP.

Many comparisons of the Macbook (MB) and the Surface Pro (SP) compare memory and CPU but ignore the usability, comfort, and level of frustration level of computing devices. I was excited to get the Surface Pro (SP) and really wanted to like it but after being used to a Macbook (MB) I found the SP to be as difficult to use and as frustrating as all Windows laptops. I have both a Macbook Air (by choice) and a Surface Pro (Required for work). You may want to consider the Macbook Air 13" which is lighter and (I believe) comes with a SSD.

Another downside is that all Surfaces are sealed so you cannot upgrade anything.
Https /The downside is the detachable keyboard, it will not be as good as a typical laptop keyboard because it is thin and light which means key travel is below average and it can feel "springy" when typing on it. This is demonstrated in the following video for the Surface 3, but like I said One Note is a standard feature on all Surface products: When you playback the recorded session not only will you hear the audio, but you will also see the notes / graphics you wrote / drawn. The entire lecture can be played back as a kind of video. MS's One Note should come standard with all Surface products and it has a recording feature that allows you to record lectures while writing notes. The SP4 is more versatile than the MacBook since it is a convertible and it has a digital pen which can be used to write notes. People generally like MacBook's build quality, but the Surface Pro 4 also has very good build quality. If anyone has used one or the other, maybe even both any feedback will be much appreciated as well as if anyone has used either for Uni/College! Many thanks for reading This would be so if need be I can add an SSD etc. It would be a Macbook Pro 13inch by the way, NOT THE RETINA. I really like the look of the SP4 with how lightweight it is and everything else about the design however I still love the look of a Macbook. I also don't want it to be too expensive, around £1,000. Obviously I'd also like to use it for leisure outside of Uni and will most likely do other things like edit videos and photos on Adobe software, primarily After Effects, Premiere Pro and Photoshop. I will be studying animal science so will majority be word documents, note taking, small media and design projects - just general use. Have used both Windows and Mac in the past and would probably say I prefer Windows but am still happy to use Mac OS.
So come September this year I will be going off to Uni and as it currently stands I have no form of a laptop.
