A laptop battle seems to be happening soon involving Apple's MacBook Pro 2016 and Microsoft's Surface Book 2, with the former running on MacOS Sierra, while the latter going for the latest Windows 10 OS. With these two flagship laptops going head-to-head, it is going to be one interesting matchup.
The Changes and Upgrades that separates the two
The Surface Book 2
Speculations have been indicating that the next-gen Surface Book will be a huge overhaul from its predecessors. A redesign is already being anticipated, and experts are saying that Microsoft will be focusing on the fulcrum hinge on the first version that will remove the small gap that is visible when the laptop is folded. It is also confirmed that along with the Windows 10, Intel Kaby Lake will be the Surface Book 2's processor. Now that's something. Fans of the much-anticipated laptop are also expecting that significant features and upgrades will be part of the entire development, making the Surface Book 2 the most beautiful and powerful laptop to date.
The MacBook Pro 2016
Huge changes and upgrades are also the names of the game for the MacBook Pro 2016, which is considered to be the most powerful Mac since it is going to be powered by either the Intel Skylake CPU or the Kaby Lake - Apple is still undecided. But either which of the two that will end up being the main processor for the Mac Pro 2016, it will still be one very powerful laptop. Additionally, the MBP '16 will be getting an AMD Polaris 11 GPU to upgrade the gaming capabilities of the Mac.
As expected, it is going to be one great competition between very capable and powerful units. It will definitely be a very interesting showdown between the MacBook Pro 2016 and the Surface Book 2. Apple will be unpacking its much-awaited Mac offerings that would definitely include the MacBook Pros and Airs on October 27. However before that day comes, Microsoft will already be first on stage for a number of product introductions, which would definitely include the Surface Book 2.
