The Redmond company has finally unveiled its bid to compete with the Apple iMac. It’s ” Surface Studio “, a all-in-one desktop computer with a large screen and high power, which falls within the premium price range.

The computer consists of two parts, a 28 inches screen and that is only 12.5 mm thick and a base containing the other components.

The  3: 2 screen is undoubtedly the most spectacular part, completely focused on “creators and professionals” in the words of Microsoft. The touch panel has a resolution of 4500×3000 pixels , superior to even the 4K TVs. In addition, it is adjustable in height to place virtually flat and has different colour configurations depending on the type of task you wish to perform (photography, video, etc.).

The Surface Studio is based on the Intel processors ranging from an i5 up to i7, and RAM configurations from 8GB up to 32GB and up to 2TB of hard drive.

The set can be completed with four accessories: keyboard, mouse, stylus and a new haptic device called ” Surface Dial“.

The starting price in the US for the basic configuration is $ 3,000, and up to $4,000 in more advanced configurations. Microsoft has warned of a possible shortage of units at launch.
