Better than ever, the new Surface Pro gives you a best-in-class laptop, plus the versatility of a studio and tablet. The stunning PixelSense Display supports Surface Pen1 and touch, while up to 13.5 hours of battery life2 gives you plenty of juice to work all day and play all night. It is equipped with 12.3" PixelSense diaplay with 2736*1824 resolution. With it, perhaps you can't be satisfied with video with 1080p resolution anymore. So here we are going to discuss about how to playing any 4K videos on Microsoft Surface Pro without curbs.

Before we start, we have to make this clear - why not all 4k video can be played on Microsoft Surface Pro perfectly? One reason is the sources of 4k video could be anywhere, downloaded from the web, captured by Panasonic/Sony/Canon camcoders, shot by DJI drones, and more. The second reason could be the versatitlity of video format codec. For example, MP4 is one of the most common and widely used video formats, but people still can not play some of them, cause MP4 is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio, but is can be used to store other data such as subtitles and still image, different MP4 file could cover different video audio codec. So this is why you fail to play some of them on your portable devices.

To solve the problems above, one 4k video converter is necessary.
