Remember those old ads "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC"? They illustrated (with brilliance) the differences between the cultures of the two platforms. This Apple-Microsoft rivalry has since subsided. But Apple has released a new Macbook Pro May it's considerably more powerful than its predecessors – and also lightweight. Similarly, Microsoft has stood out with its range of tablets / PC Surface Pro. His last, the Surface Pro 6, is rich in features and is clearly a strong choice in the Windows market. Although operating systems still differ, Apple is no longer as immune to viruses as it has been in the past. Windows 10 is not so vulnerable. & Nbsp; Keep reading for & nbsp; other factors to consider.
Weight and bulk
Talk about portability. The 15-inch MacBook Pro is only 0.61 inches thick (like its MacBook Air) and weighs four pounds. The 13-inch Pro is even thinner (0.59 inches) and weighs 3.02 pounds. The 12.3-inch Surface Pro 6 measures 0.33 inches thick and weighs only 1.5 kilograms without keyboard protection.
Keyboard
Speaking of this cover, you must buy a keyboard cover separately for the Surface Pro 6. Expect to spend about $ 100 for this. The MacBook Pro is a complete laptop. It is of course delivered with the keyboard.
Screen options
Both are beautiful. The MacBook Pro comes in a choice of 13.3-inch or 15.4-inch, both with a Retina display, which offers excellent viewing from all angles. The Surface Pro 6 comes with a 12.3-inch high-resolution (2736 x 1824) and 10-point multi-touch PixelSense display. Plus, it can be tilted to any degree for comfortable viewing. And it also works with a surface pen.
Processing speed
Both machines are fast. The MacBook Pro is available with 8th and 9th generation Intel Core processors. The 13-inch Pro comes standard with an Intel Core i5 dual-core 2.3 GHz processor, Turbo Boost up to 3.6 GHz, with 64 MB of eDRAM memory. A 13-inch model with a touch bar (Apple's shortcut menu on the screen) comes standard with an Intel Core i5 quad-core 2.4 GHz processor, Turbo Boost up to 4.1 GHz, with 128 MB of eDRAM. The 15 inch Pro is available in your choice: a 6-core Intel Core i7 processor at 6 GHz, Turbo Boost up to 4.5 GHz, with 12 MB shared L3 cache or 8-core 8-core Intel Core i9 processor 8-core GHz, Turbo Boost with 16 MB of shared L3 cache. All configurations are scalable. The Surface Pro 6 comes with your choice of Intel Core i5 or i7 processors, with 8GB or 16GB of RAM.
Storage room
The MacBook Pro can be upgraded to have 4TB of hard drive space. The Surface Pro 6 comes with a solid state drive of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB or 1TB of disk space.
Battery life
The MacBook Pro runs 10 hours between charges. The Surface Pro 6, on the other hand, will allow you to get up to 13.5 hours of video playback. You may get even more life if you simply type in the word processor.
Price
MacBook Pro range from $ 1,299 to $ 2,799. The Surface Pro 6 ranges from $ 799 to $ 2,099, depending on its configuration. These are not cheap.
Bottom line
This decision really comes down to which operating system makes you feel more at home. In fact, every factor is interesting. I see more and more people attending Starbucks and other public places using the Surface Pro. For what it's worth, one of my friends has a three-year-old model, converted from a MacBook Pro. He said that he would never come back. However, once in the Apple ecosystem, it is difficult to leave, mainly because of the simplicity of the synchronization of several Apple devices.
