A formidable
Luxury hybrid
Hugely improved battery life
Much better Surface Pen
Comfier
Punchier Type Cover
The optional Surface Pro type cover makes typing on the tablet better and boasts the same Alcantara finish seen on the Microsoft Surface laptop it feels luxurious and comes in three different muted stylish colours

The editors didn't like
Premium price tag
Surface Pen no longer included
Lacks USB Type-C
Keyboard not included
Expensive
Battery life still isn't great (not in the Core i7 model anyway - fanless Core i5 ought to be better in this regard)
Can get mighty expensive - to the point a laptop might make more sense
Surface Pen pulled from package
Only Core i7 can challenge A10X
No USB Type-C port
The display suffers from some glare in bright light
Abstract: The Microsoft Surface Pro is the best detachable in our comparison. With its solid processor, a beautiful high-definition display and a detachable design that adapts to your needs in the workplace, it's a smart choice whether you're at your desk all day o...

Superb display, Solid all-around system performance, Fanless and silent, Improved, more flexible kickstand, Excellent battery life, Tablet-like portability, Surface Pen rocks
Keyboard still costs extra despite marketing the Surface Pro as the ultimate laptop, Subpar camera performance, Limited port selection
Capping off its solid performance in PCMark 8, 3DMark, and other benchmarks is the Surface Pro's battery life. This is the longest-lasting Surface Pro yet, and depending on how you use it, you can reasonably expect it to last most of, if not all of a typi...

I honestly didn't know what to expect from this comparison when deciding to go down this path comparing the new 2017 Surface Pro against the 2017 iPad Pro. Both pieces of hardware are exquisitely built and constructed with some of the best materials and i...

This incremental hardware update is an expensive option, but the Surface Pro's ultraportability and touch-friendly interface makes it ideal for hot-desking and working anywhere...

solid, classy design, noiseless, very good battery life (12 - 17 hours), decent camera with support for Windows Hello, very good microphone, bright display with good sRGB coverage, charges in 2 hours, very good performance in short bursts < 2 minutes
significant throttling in sustained load scenarios, no USB Type-C, Signature Type Cover (2017) optional, Surface Pen (2017) optional, high price
Type Cover/Surface Pen cost extra, Heavy for handheld use, Lacking in ports
The iterative nature of the 2017 Surface Pro doesn't detract from the fact that this is an excellent 2-in-1 and a worthy update on 2015's Surface Pro 4. The machine itself certainly feels like five-star material, with some of the most refined design work...

Abstract: True hubris is a person trying to use a Microsoft Surface Pro like a laptop. It takes Mr. Darcy levels of pride to believe you can trust so fully in a kickstand and flimsy keyboard. The Surface Pro is many things, including everything from Microsofts att...
Silent, fanless design, One of the most flexible, well-built 2-in-1s you can buy, New alcantara fabric keyboard is pleasant, if a little trendy, Improved battery life, Beautiful screen, The optional Surface Pen is more sensitive than ever,
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
