Hi Huneybees,
Continue from my previous post on the Top 10 things you need to know about the new Microsoft Surface Studio....
5. Surface Studio is Xbox ready
Equipped with built-in Xbox Wireless technology, you can transform the Surface Studio into a gaming station to play all Xbox One games using the Xbox wireless accessories wireless, such as using the Xbox wireless controller to play Halo 5: Guardians on Surface Studio.
4. Surface Studio is secured
Equipped with Windows Hello2 Face Sign-in Camera on the 28-inch PixelSense Display, unauthorized access to your works on the new Surface Studio can be better prevented by the built-in enterprise level face sign-in authentication.3. It is a all-in-one unit
Apart from the input accessories such as the keyboard, mouse, Surface Pen and maybe the Surface Dial, which are all connected via the supported Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology, everything else is delivered as one stylist module; Surface Studio is the iMac for the Windows world.While this may seem "neat" without having to deal with the cumbersome and ugly cable management issue, a dead pixel or a hinge issue, will send you looking for the whole Surface studio replacement instead of addressing the specific issue by swopping with a replacement part.
2. There Is A Headphone Jack
It's heartwarming to know that the Microsoft Surface Studio design team recognizes that there are people (including yours truly) still using the wired audio earpiece or headphone to listen to audio files. However to have the 3.5mm jack outlet placed at the back of the CPU is simply not practical.1. It's a premium new gadget with not so new technology .
While the new Surface Studio is definitely going to turn heads, it is considered pricey for a purposely built desktop that is not using the latest technology available for both GPU and CPU.With the ever evolving technology, the non-upgradability of the Surface Studio is going to haunt the buyer in the months to come.
Come and experience the Surface Studio and its entire Microsoft Surface Line-Up - from Surface Pro, the new Surface Book 2, and Surface Laptop - in Singapore at the new Surface Store located at Harvey Norman Millenia Walk flagship Superstore that provides a one-stop location for consumer to experience the full line-up in Singapore.
