The 5th generation Microsoft Surface Pro has finally arrived in Malaysia. This convertible 2-in-1 laptop was first announced a few months ago and you can now secure your unit online from as low as RM3,699.

The new Surface Pro models for 2017 are now running on Intel’s 7th generation processors ranging from Core m3 to the highest Core i7. Both the Core m3 and Core i5 models are now fan-less for a more silent operation.

The display is a 12.3″ PixelSense unit that boasts a pixel density of 267 ppi. Despite being similar as the previous Surface Pro 4, the new model offers 50% more battery life than its predecessor with a claimed 13.5 hours on a single charge.
