iPad vs. Surface

1. Body Design

Consistent with Apple style, iPad has a thin and light body. Narrow edge design and high resolution make it a perfect place to watch videos. Only one physical button reduces the possibility of mis-operation. In a word, iPad has fashionable and humanized body design.

2. Price

Surface Pro is sold at $800, which is almost twice the price of iPad 4. This is an important reason why most people choose iPad.

3. Screen

The screen size of Surface Pro is 10.81 inch, much larger than that of iPad. Users have accustomed to the 9.7 inch screen. Besides, this is a scientific and suitable screen size for a tablet. Larger screen doesn't have better effect as always. iPad has a resolution of 1024×768 while the resolution of Surface Pro is 1920×1080. Surface pro has better IPS effect but under the same brightness, iPad has better visual effect than Surface. The image effect of Surface tends to be warm while iPad screen has higher saturation.

What we mentioned above are just typical differences between iPad and Surface. Considering the marketing orientation of iPad and Surface, these are reasonable. iPad targets at entertainment while Surface tends to business. Therefore, iPad is more suitable for watching videos and playing games while Surface is a better choice for business purpose.
