The editors didn't like
Keyboard cover and Surface Pen remain expensive add-ons. Apple does this
Too
But it feels worse on a PC that's trying harder to replace a traditional laptop
Smallish trackpad
GPU performance stands still
Just two ports
Though the proprietary power a
SQ3 processor brings the usual Arm-based drawbacks
Lackluster performance and compatibility
Core feature differences between Intel and SQ3 models can be confusing

Great keyboard, stylus and kickstand, New 5G support, Long battery life
Must-have accessories are sold separately, 5G version has a premium price, ARM chip app compatibility issues, No headphone jack
The list of benchmarking software we use changes over time as the devices we test evolve. The most important core tests we're currently running on every compatible computer include: Primate Labs Geekbench 5, Cinebench R23, PCMark 10 and 3DMark Fire Strike...

Abstract: Just as October 2021 brought us the Surface Pro 8, now October 2022 brings us the Surface Pro 9. As part of Microsoft's new Surface lineup, unveiled Oct. 12 in a livestream, the new Surface Pro 9 joins the updated Surface Laptop 5 and Surface Studio 2 Plu...
Beautiful 3:2 format display for productivity, ncremental speed, SSD, and screen update to SP8, Interesting option of Windows on ARM Two new colours, Why fix something that isn't broke
Battery life depends on load – count on 8-10 hours, Expensive optional keyboard and pen, 3.5mm headphone jack MIA (use USB-C DAC)
Abstract: The Microsoft Surface Pro 9 comes in two guises this year. You either opt for the mobile-based ARM model or the more traditional Intel option. This is a review of the latte...

good 120Hz screen, good Intel performance, Thunderbolt4/USB4, excellent keyboard (essential additional purchase), excellent kickstand, Windows Hello, solid build, great stylus (optional purchase), removable SSD, easier to repair
expensive, keyboard should be included, no USBA port, no microSD card slot, no headphone jack, average battery life, Microsoft SQ3 and Windows on ARM still not good enough
Microsoft's best Windows 11 tablet gets what looks like a minor-but-needed speed increase in the Surface Pro 9, adding 12-gen Intel chips.It is a bit snappier, the battery lasts about the same work day as previous versions, it has a good 120Hz display, an...
Slim and light, Superb build, Faster than the Surface Pro 8
Battery life merely adequate, Screen could be more vivid, No 3.5mm audio output
Overall, it's a bit of a mixed bag from the Surface Pro 9. While it's perfectly capable of doing the job it's designed to do, the hardware can't quite match the best in the business. The Apple M2 iPad Pro is not only quicker all-round, it has a better dis...
Abstract: You don't review a laptop such as the Microsoft Surface Pro 9 5G (or indeed any product) in a vacuum. You have to look at it from the perspective of what came before, what else is available in the market, your experience with the product, and, in our case...
Excellent design and quality, Runs full software, Works with old accessories, Beautiful screen and keyboard
Small folders and tabs, SQ3 model could be underpowered
The Microsoft Surface Pro 9 is a quality 2-in-1 laptop that feels great to use and features enough power to be used however you wish, just make sure you pick the right build for you. The Intel 12th-gen build is perfect for on-the-go work and play, but the...
Abstract: Over the last ten years, the Microsoft Surface Pro lineup has come to define the detachable two-in-one category. Recently, Microsoft has flirted with Qualcomm's Arm chips in a separate model from the mainline Intel versions. But with the Surface Pro 9, th...
