03 inches, 1.7 pounds) is the most portable of the pack. The Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 (11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches, 2.9 pounds) comes in quite a bit thicker and heavier due to its built-in keyboard, while the slim Lenovo ThinkPad X12 Detachable at (11.2 x 0.8 x. At 11.3 x 8.2 x 0.37 inches and 1.96 pounds, it is slightly narrower but taller and thicker than the Surface Pro 7 (11.5 x 7.9 x 0.33, 1.74 pounds). That larger screen necessitates a larger laptop, but not in all directions as Microsoft has blessedly slimmed down the bezels on the Pro 8.

Again, tack on an extra $179 or $279 if you want the keyboard or keyboard and Slim Pen 2 combo.Ĭonsidering the Surface Pro 7 started at $749, there will be sticker shock for some Surface Pro fans. The Surface Pro 8 tops out at $2,599 for the Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and the PixelSense display.

My review unit is a mid-tier option at $1,599 with an upgraded Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor, 16GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD, and the same PixelSense display. Microsoft’s new Slim Pen 2 is also available in a bundle with the keyboard for $279, meaning the entire Surface Pro 8 experience starts at $1,380. As always, with the Surface Pro, if you want the whole laptop experience, you need to spring for the keyboard as well, which is another $179, bringing that price up to $1,280.
