Surface Pro 2-in-1 Laptop/Tablet (2024), Windows 11 Copilot+ PC, 13" Touchscreen Display, Snapdragon X Plus (10 Core), 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage, Sapphire

Love my surface pro that replaced my old surface pro that lasted 10+ years!!!!! Easy set up and up and running within 30 minutes.

I wanted something I could throw in my bag without weighing me down. The platinum finish looks really sleek and modern, and it feels premium to hold. I love the built-in kickstand on the back. It’s sturdy and lets me set it up at the perfect angle whether I’m at a desk or working from a coffee shop table. The screen is gorgeous and super responsive to touch, which makes scrolling through websites or zooming in on photos really satisfying. It runs Windows 11 smoothly, it feels fast and ready for anything I need to do. It’s honestly impressive how much power they packed into such a thin device. But I do wish I could downgrade to Windows 10.

I've traveled for years with a laptop for work and a second tablet for airplanes (and occasional other times). Since I'm retiring in a couple of months, I wanted to pare down what I carry and decided to commit to trying the Surface Pro 11. I've been extremely pleased. It's quick and very capable, and works so well with the Surface Pro keyboard and pen. It is a solid PC with that keyboard and a responsive, capable tablet without it. Battery life is also excellent compared to other PCs or Windows-based tablets I've used. I had concerns about some of the software I use not working with the Snapdragon X processor but I've had no issues, and more and more apps are being adapted to it every month. Several reviewers commented that Google Drive didn't work on it, but that was addressed by Google in early Dec 2024 and it works flawlessly. I also use Quicken, WhatsApp, Davinci Resolve, and Firefox without issues. I did order an anti-glare screen protector (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYGYVFVW) because the glare can be significant in certain lighting situations. I also ordered some small USB-A to USB-C adapters (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PDLQ555) so that I have the option to connect USB-A devices (a docking station/adapter is overkill for my needs). Overall, I'm quite happy with this PC/Tablet combo. I've been using it as my primary (non-work) computer for almost 2 weeks now and am very satisfied.

Microsoft Surface is the premier tablet-like computer. This is my second one. I bought one when Microsoft first made them. The machine is properly priced for the value you get. "Price is what you pay, and value is what you get." This saying is totally apropos. The machine is super fast, high quality, and has a very pleasing aesthetic. I am fully satisfied, completely & utterly comfortable with my purchase. If you value speed & quality, you also will be delighted. Never take the least expensive route when buying a computer. Ps. The battery is amazing, and because I had a prior surface, the set up was beyond easy.

There is a lot to like about a Surface. The form factor is terrific and I find both the keyboard and charger excellent. Battery life is good. My uses are primarily email, documents, and web. (no heavy CPU or RAM utilizers). BUT with the ARM based Snapdragon architecture, there are applications and drivers which are not supported. Google drive for desktop is not, and Google does not plan on supporting. This has really impacted the usability of the device for me in places without wifi or poor wifi. Had I known this I probably would have gone with a Chromebook 2 in 1, as these have really come a long way and it would have been much cheaper. The second issue is that I have had reliability issues with prior Surface devices. So I would consider the extended service plan. For this reason alone, it is better to purchase the device at Amazon rather than from Microsoft directly. The third party insurance is MUCH cheaper and seems comparable. One would think Microsoft support would be better and the customer experience on the Microsoft store to be good, but this has not been my experience. So outside of these, I do love this device so far and have found the functionality good. UPDATE after 6 weeks of use. I still like the device quite a bit, and a key advantage of the Snapdragon set up is the long battery life. However, a few other issues have arisen. This is mostly minor stuff, BUT Microsoft has not provided much in the way of support on the forums and despite a large number of other users with the same issue. For example, on start up, the keyboard is not recognized by the device until the keyboard is dethatched and reattached. An external screen does not allow night light even though it is present on the main device screen. Neither of these were issues with my Surface 8. The boot up on this device is MUCH longer on this device than my old Surface 8 (and yes, I minimized start up apps and all the other things to address this). Things should get better with next generations, not worse.

I’ve wanted a Surface Pro for years, and when Prime Day rolled around, I knew it was finally time to make the move, especially at the lowest price the 2-in-1 had ever hit. I picked up the black color model with the Snapdragon X Plus, 16GB RAM, and 512GB storage, and I haven’t looked back yet. My idea of an ideal laptop has always been something that truly fits in your lap, and the 13" size is perfect for that. I’ve used 13-inch laptops for as long as I can remember because they strike the right balance between portability and functionality and this Surface Pro keeps that tradition alive while also changing the game. It’s a laptop and tablet in one, and although the built-in kickstand is still something I’m adjusting to, the trade-off is more than worth it. Being able to use this as both a laptop and tablet with a responsive touchscreen has definitely been a unique benefit to get used to. The device is insanely light and portable, and it stays cool and quiet no matter what I throw at it. I have yet to hear any noticeable noise from it, which is rare in a device this powerful. To make it function more like a traditional laptop, I also picked up a few accessories: a matching Surface Pro Keyboard in black, Slim Pen 2, a USB to USB-C adapter, and a headphone jack adapter. While it wasn’t cheap to get everything, the overall experience has made it more than worth it. The standout feature is by far the battery life. Unless I’m running a heavy program or connecting to an external display via HDMI, the battery lasts longer than I ever expected. It’s genuinely impressive and easily the best I’ve seen from any laptop I’ve owned. My only hesitation lies with the ARM-based Snapdragon processor. On one hand, I love what ARM processors are doing for battery life and performance; just like Apple’s shift to silicon, it’s clearly the future. But not all programs have made the transition yet. I’ve been lucky that most of what I use is ARM-compatible, but a few programs I used on my old laptop just don’t work anymore. It’s a bit of a bummer, but I think I waited long enough that the majority of what I need does work. Overall, this Surface Pro has exceeded my expectations. It’s sleek, fast, ridiculously portable, and ready for anything I throw at it (ARM-growing pains and all).

Arrived sooner than I expected. Great product

I love this tablet. I hate the lag of starting up a computer when I need to use it. I love the ease of a phone and tablet as they are always ready to use and don’t lose a ton of battery sitting idle. This windows tablet is the best of both worlds. Full functionality of windows in a tablet form. I’m an apple fan and I am stoked on this windows product. Amazing a worth every penny!
