Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the expansion of the Surface family with the new Surface Studio. Surface Studio is a new class of device that transforms from a workstation into a powerful digital canvas, unlocking a more natural and immersive way to create. With a stunning ultra-HD 4.5K screen, Surface Studio delivers 63 percent more pixels than a state-of-the-art 4K TV. Surface Studio works beautifully with pen, touch and Surface Dial — a new input device designed for the creative process that lets you use two hands on the screen to compose and create in all new ways. Microsoft is projecting Surface Studio as a new type of device instead of comparing it with other All-in-One PCs in the market. If you want to compare Surface Studio's offering, then there is only one high-end All-in-One PC in the market, the Apple iMac.
Check out the spec comparison of these devices below,
