The model that Amazon has on sale is powered by the Intel Core i5 processor. It can handle weighty tasks smoothly so if you are someone who likes to run many apps with Chrome opened with a dozen tabs on the side, the Surface Pro 8 will tackle everything like a Pro without any signs of slowdown.
The 8GB/128GB Surface Pro costs $1,099.99 but Amazon is currently offering a discount of $314 on it. This makes the price more palatable.
The Surface Pro 8 comes with a user upgradable SSD so you can add more storage space to it as your needs grow. It offers a battery life of 16 hours and you get plenty of ports, including two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports, a Surface Connect port, and even a headphone jack.
Go for the slate if you need a device that’s more of a laptop than a slate and you don’t want like manufacturers to dictate what apps you can download (looking at you, Apple).
