It also highlights the detachable keyboard of the Surface as well as support for various bits of software including games that macOS doesn`t have.

Microsoft further takes a dig at the MacBook for not being a gaming device.

The Surface Pro, according to the ad, remains a "much better gaming device" than Apple MacBook Pro.

In the end, the price of the two products compared in US dollars.

MacBook Pro starts at $1,299 whereas the Surface Pro 7 starts at $890.

Comparing it to the prices in India, the 13-inch Intel-powered MacBook Pro with 512GB storage starts at Rs 1,74,900, and the M1-powered starts at Rs 1,22,900.

This is not the first time Microsoft has taken a dig at Apple in an advertisement.

The company previously compared the Surface Laptop 2 against the MacBook Air, stating that its notebook is better in performance and battery life.

Microsoft has long positioned its Surface devices as an ideal combination of both a tablet and computer experience.
