It boasts "all-day" battery life, faster performance, and efficient computing. This is the first time Microsoft is experimenting with a Microsoft custom SQ1, 7-watt chipset.Īccording to Microsoft, this SQ1 chip offers three times the performance per watt than the Surface Pro 6. Until that happens, I’d recommend you to get a Surface Pro 8 which has the same design as the Pro X but comes with an Intel processor inside.The Surface Pro's travel-friendly design is enabled by a custom, ARM-based CPU. The success of a device like the Pro X is tied to how developers react to the ARM platform on Windows. Right now, the Surface Pro X is a bit of a complicated device but has a lot of potential in the future. For Microsoft with the Surface Pro X and Apple with the iPad Pro, the end goal is to create a new type of computer but both devices feel less complete than a traditional Windows laptop or a MacBook running macOS. The Surface Pro X is exciting but also frustrating at the same time. The Pro X is the first step in that direction – in fact, a bold one. The Surface Pro X is Microsoft’s bet on ARM processors that might be the future of Windows laptops. Single Review, online available, Medium, Date: Ĩ0% Microsoft Surface Pro X review: A peek into the future but one that throws up new questions If you are seeking a reliable productivity tablet, the Surface Pro 8 is worth checking out. That said, if you are seeking a proper professional tablet that can do video and photo editing with ease, you have the iPad Pro M1. And that tablet is not an iPad it is a Windows 11-toting Surface Pro X – a tablet that you attach your mouse and keyboard to use just like your laptop. In fact, I can now finally say – Yes, you can replace your laptop with a tablet. And, with that blessing-in-disguise kickstand, I cannot recommend any other tablet that is as comfortable to use as the Surface Pro X. The battery life is good enough and so is the 3:2 display. You can do your light office work at one moment and quickly undock it to catch up with the latest Netflix show when done. A desktop-grade operating system on an iPad-like tablet is exactly what the WFH doctor ordered. As long as you keep this in mind, this is a stellar tablet to use. The Surface Pro X is not a tablet meant for professionals. 70% Microsoft Surface Pro X Review: An almost perfect laptop replacement! Almost!
