Yeah right what? That's the fucking resolution. The SP3/4 and the Surface Book are 3:2 aspect ratio displays.comparison
13.5 inches and 3000x2000 resolution? Yeah right

Have you actually USED a Surface Pro? The resolution is largely a non-issue on those devices even though it's "so high". Windows scales pretty well (8.1 and better with 10) at that resolution to be perfectly usable.

You're not saying anything. Have you word of the word "context?" Maybe you should try using it, because saying "yeah, right" about a machine's resolution and display size is meaningless and vague.

I mean I knew that it's 3:2 (3000x2000, it's pretty obvious, isn't it?) I was sarcastic because I used surface products for a while and didn't like that unusual ratio.

Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 felt unnatural with their 16:9 screens. Pro3 and Pro4/Book with 3:2 feel much better.

16:9 is useless most of the time for a tablet.

That's your opinion only. I personally would like more 16:9 good tablets because I mostly use those to watch movies / TV shows / play some casual games when I'm on the train, plane, etc
