Here are the things that you need to know about the tech giant's newest, jaw-dropping Windows 10 gadgets.
The Microsoft Surface Book
At first glance, it may look like a MacBook, but according to CNN, how it works is rather interesting. It can be a full-powered laptop or tablet, and with a use of a unique mechanical hinge, this gadget can also turn itself into a clipboard.
Surface Book's monitor shelters a Core i5 or i7 processor, and the keyboard has a graphics processing unit, boosting the laptop's performance. It has a 13.5-inch display, and three-fourth of its battery life is reportedly stored in the keyboard.
Pre-order has started, and it will go on sale on Oct. 26. Base model starts at $1,499.
