SURFACE PRO 3 SCREEN BRIGHTNESS PLUS

There's also a headphone jack, but that's it. The first two models of the MacBook Pro 2020 get just a pair of Thunderbolt 3 ports, while the two higher-specced models get four. As the Surface Book 3 continues with its predecessorвЂ™s smaller, albeit thoroughly decent trackpad, weвЂ™re going to say the MacBook Pro 2020 will win on the trackpad front.Д®arly winner: Draw Surface Book 3 vs MacBook Pro 2020: Ports The Surface Book 3 with the Nvidia GPU brings the weight to 3.62 pounds.Д®arly winner: MacBook Pro 2020 Surface Book 3 vs MacBook Pro 2020: Keyboard and trackpadД«ut things are likely to get flipped when it comes to the trackpad, as the MacBook Pro has the well-established Force Touch trackpad, which has long been the best, as well as one of the largest, laptop trackpads. The MacBook Pro is more portable, though, as it weighs 3.1 pounds and is 0.61 inches thick, compared to 0.9 inches thick and 3.38 pounds for the Surface Book 3. However, the hinge lends bulk to the laptop, and itвЂ™s smaller, squarer trackpad and rounded edges aren't quite as smart as the 13-inch MacBook ProвЂ™s design in our eyes. The Surface Book 3 is undeniably the more interesting machine, what with its fulcrum hinge connecting the tablet and the rest of the laptop together in a secure fashion. WeвЂ™d have liked to have seen Apple trim the display bezels a little, but weвЂ™ll probably have to wait another year for that to happen. ThereвЂ™s no doubt that the MacBook Pro 2020 is a strong example of industrial design, with a well-made aluminum unibody and that clean, minimalistic Apple aesthetic. Both devices are rather attractive premium machines, but which looks the best will be down to individual tastes. Things are a little dull here as the design of the Surface Book 3 and MacBook Pro 2020 hasnвЂ™t changed from their respective predecessors.В Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that rings true here. It also supports the P3 wide color gamut and Apple's TrueTone technology, which automatically adjusts color temperature to best suit the ambient lighting conditions. This screen has a fairly sharp resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels and is bright at 485 nits based on our lab results. The MacBook Pro 2020 comes with the same Retina Display as its predecessor, but it's still a great panel.

This graphics card easily beats IntelвЂ™s Iris Plus graphics and is not just suitable for rendering tasks but can also handle some modern gaming.Д®arly winner: Surface Book 3 Surface Book 3 vs MacBook Pro 2020: Display The $1,999 Core i7 model has a GeForce GTX 1650 GPU with 4GB of dedicated video memory. Microsoft extends its lead with its optional discrete graphics. Given the entry-level Surface Book 3 has access to newer chips than the cheapest MacBook Pro, itвЂ™s likely to have AppleвЂ™s machine beat. These CPUs can be paired with up to 32GB of RAM. The $1,599 Surface Book 3 comes standard with Intel's latest 10th-generation chips, specifically the Core i5-1035G7 and Core i7-1065G7. And both Ice Lake CPUs come with IntelвЂ™s Iris Plus integrated graphics, so are able to handle more graphically demanding tasks than the 8th-gen processors.

The Core i5 is able to hit 3.8 GHz and the Core i7 in the $1,999 model is able to reach 4.1 GHz. The $1,799 MacBook Pro is more future-proof, as it comes with a 10th-generation Core i5 chip or optional Core i7 CPU. So they arenвЂ™t going to be disappointing in real-world use. However, both the Core i5 and i7 are quad-core processors able to hit 3.8GHz and 4.5GHz respectively. These chips are arguably a little long in the tooth.

The $1,299 and $1,499 models make use of older 8th-generation Core i5 processors and Core i7.
