If Microsoft hadn't sneakily hiked the cost of getting a complete experience
The 2017 Surface Pro would be the best Windows 2-in-1 for every user. Luckily
Great bat
Only two consumer configurations are available with LTE
The excellent keyboard cover and Surface Pen are still sold separately

Limited port selection
Late to market and last gen CPU
No USB TypeC
Still expensive

Not great if you work on your lap or on a couch
Only a single USB port
The proprietary charger is a bummer
The front camera is aimed too high
Expensive at $1
000+ for mid-tier models
Why isn't the keyboard included
Significant throttling in sustained load scenarios
The MacBook Pro is a great update to a much heralded line. The design is subtle but distinctive and performance is strong throughout. It's not all plain sailing though. The keyboard is unorthodox, and as such might put some buyers off, plus those prices a...

They're widely marketed as pretenders to the same throne - the laptop-replacement tablet of choice for business and creative users - but the iPad Pro and Surface Pro 5 are quite different in a lot of ways.In many areas the Surface Pro has superior specs...
The high-resolution touch-enabled PixelSense display is beautiful and a joy to use, The all day-battery life with an exceptional standby mode is second to none, Feels very comfortable to use in tablet mode, More versatile than any other Windows machine,
The keyboard is not included in the purchase, No USB-C port
Microsoft Surface Pro (2017) is reliable and productive 2-in-1 machine which checks all the right boxes. It has impeccable build quality, performs well, and easily last for a work day on battery. Of course, it still has lapability issues, however, by maki...
A touchscreen display par excellence, Crisp audio, Magical accessories that complete the Surface Pro
Lukewarm performance, Cumbersome to handle at times, Those magical accessories are expensive
The Microsoft Surface Pro is an innovative and flexible device that's great for doodling and jotting down notes all day long while looking up half a dozen reference pages on a browser and blasting music on the side. Living with one poses some challenges b...
Type Cover and Surface Pen cost a lot extra, Previous generation CPUs, Weak speakers, Limited connectivity
We really like the Microsoft Surface Pro for its portability and convenience. We were even able to use it on our laps for short stretches - it wasn't very comfortable, but it was certainly possible. Its design and components are however a little dated, an...
Abstract: When it comes to laptop brands in India, Microsoft isn't a name that immediately comes to mind – especially for hardware. Beyond tech enthusiasts, few know about Microsoft's Surface range of devices. This was quite evident from the reactions I received fo...

Overall dimensions unchanged from Surface Pro 3 and 4, 13 hours claimed battery life, Improved Surface Pen and Type Cover, Wider range of motion on kickstand
No USB-C or Thunderbolt 3, Still uncomfortable in lap use, Type Cover sold separately
It's just called the Microsoft Surface Pro now, but the 2017 iteration continues to be the 2-in-1 detachable-hybrid tablet that other PC makers will strive to emulate. A processor bump, longer battery life, and new peripherals are the big improvements...
It's the most powerful Surface detachable PC – ever, Beautiful 12.3-inch PixelSense display, Signature Type Cover keyboard feels great to type on, Long-lasting battery life
Expensive, Limited connectivity ports, Surface Pen and Type Cover keyboard sold separately (and are also expensive)
From the looks of things, it certainly does seem like Microsoft has managed to raise the bar with the new Surface Pro. It's more powerful, it has a longer-lasting battery life, and it retains all the great qualities of the Surface Pro 4, such as its beaut...
Abstract: I keep getting asked about this and I generally try to recommend it every time but I don't necessarily think I emphasize it enough – the Surface Pro 1 is the Best Budget Laptop by a massive margin. The 4 year old tablet / convertible / 2-in-1 Windows PC f...
