The Surface Pro 4 offers a slightly larger display from its predecessor measuring in at 12.3-inches. The Pro 4 maintains its predecessors 3:2 aspect ratio that allows for a better experience when it comes to work and portrait orientation. Not only did Microsoft bump up the screen size, but it also chose to bump up the resolution to 2736 x 1824 - giving the screen a pixel density of 267 PPI. It goes without saying that the screen looks gorgeous - text is crisp, images look sharp and videos look lively.

Since inception of the Surface, the Type Cover has been a staple part of upping the interaction that allows it to transform from a standard tablet to a workhorse. The latest Type Cover comes in two flavors: the standard and one that has a fingerprint reader. Both options improve on last year's design and offer a better key layout, larger trackpad and quieter keys. The culmination of all of these things makes this an amazing tool when navigating the Surface. Microsoft's Panos Panay was extremely excited to debut the cover at Microsoft's October event and for good reason.

As hinted at previously, the new cover feels great in day-to-day use. The improved spacing of the keys, coupled with farther key travel and a quieter stroke - make this one of the most comfortable detachable keyboards that I have used to date. There is a tiny bit of bounce when typing, but the more you use the cover, the less you notice it, and it does not affect the experience in the least. Expanding beyond the improvements of the keyboard is the glass trackpad, which has been increased in size by 40% over the previous years Type Cover. The expanded width offers the ability to perform gestures and multi-touch actions with ease.

If there is one gripe (and this is a huge one) it is how unreliable the Type Cover is in day-to-day use. While I don't understand why this occurs, during the two months, I would have the Type Cover disconnect and become unusable on a weekly basis. This wasn't just a once a week occurrence, this would happen multiple times during a week's period. While undocking and redocking the keyboard did tend to fix the problem, other times I was left in limbo. Without a solution, often times I would have to restart the Pro just to get the keyboard to respond. Even worse is when I would just lose functionality of the trackpad - multi-touch would disappear without a real cause. I would try to enable it in the settings, just to find that it was already enabled and just not functioning. Over the course of two months, Microsoft has improved the Surface Pro 4 with various software updates and the problem has become less frequent, but it still begs the question as to why this is even a problem to begin with.
