Microsoft Surface Pro 8 (13″ 120Hz screen, Thunderbolt 4) – vs Surface Pro 7

While the Microsoft Surface Pro 7  batteryremainsone of the best Windows tablets on the market,it’s been in dire need of an overhaul over the years, as we concluded in our review of the series . Thankfully, Microsoft has been working on updates behind the scenes , and this late 2021 Surface Pro 8 addresses most of our complaints about the previous generation, finally bringing the Surface Pro line back into the current era.In short, the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 now offers a slightly larger 13-inch display with a 120Hz panel, an updated pen that can be housed in an updated keyboard case, more powerful hardware specs and a redesigned internals a cooling module, and, finally , a USB-C Thunderbolt 4 connection.The premium build and overall feel of the Pro 8 haven’t changed, but the design this time around brings the Pro closer to the Surface Pro X series.

It still has roughly the same specs as the Pro 7, but is slightly thicker and weights 0.89kg compared to the Pro 7’s 0.79kg.Before we move on to discuss this newly updated Surface Pro model, here is a more detailed spec sheet of the two.Microsoft Surface Pro 8 spec sheet Compared to the Pro 7, visually, Microsoft has unified the overall design language of the Pro and Pro The front is a 13-inch touch screen with smaller bezels and an updated Hello camera on top. The Pro does come with some air grilles on the sides, which are necessary for the cooling module to cope with the newer hardware inside, which are missing on the Qualcomm-based Pro X variant (which hasn’t received any updates yet).

The pen Microsoft offers with the Surface Pro 8 (if you buy it with the keyboard case) is also similar to the pen that previously came with the Pro X, with a flattering shape and the ability to store and charge magnetically in a dedicated slot. In the keyboard case. While it might not look that way at first, the keyboard has also been updated over previous Pros, with its internal frame now made of carbon fiber, which makes it feel stiffer and reduces flex when resting on your arm – resting or Strike the key hard without adding to its overall thickness or weight. The interior frame is still wrapped in this felt material, which is available in several different colors.

Unlike the Pro This helps create a smoother feel when interacting with the screen at 120 Hz, and then drops the refresh rate to 60 Hz on static content to save Surface Pro 8 battery power.The pen Microsoft offers with the Surface Pro 8 (if you buy it with the keyboard case) is also similar to the pen that previously came with the Pro X, with a flattering shape and the ability to store and charge magnetically in a dedicated slot.

It’s also a bit more expensive , and it’s no longer fanless.

The fanless Surface Pro 7 can only support high Turbo speeds for a very limited time, but should now do better with an updated thermal design. I just hope Microsoft can properly balance the profiles on the Surface Pro 8 and make sure the fans stay quiet in day-to-day use and don’t become extremely noisy under heavy loads.We’ll keep you posted, and in the meantime, I’d like to hear your thoughts on this tablet. Is this the Surface Pro you’ve been waiting for, or is it just not enough by today’s standards of premium 2-in -1s?
