Best Buy is pairing huge Surface Pro 9 discount with a free keyboard

High-end tablets of today are often positioned as laptop replacements. Even though the Microsoft Surface Pro 9 goes a step further than other high-end tablets by offering a built-in stand to help you use it in a laptop orientation, like other tablets, it also doesn’t come with a keyboard. A deal has changed that though.

The Surface Pro 9 is a computer-first tablet. This means that it gives you the portability of a tablet and the productivity prowess of a desktop computer.

It sports a crisp and fluid 13-inch screen. The model on sale is powered by the Intel Core i5 processor and a healthy 16GB of RAM. This means that it has enough firepower to handle demanding apps and multitasking. 

The Surface Pro 9 runs the Windows operating system so it isn’t hobbled by the same limitations many of its closest rivals are and can run any program that your desktop can. It even supports Android apps.

The 16GB/256GB Surface Pro 9 with the Intel i5 has a street price of $1,399.99 and the Surface Pro Keyboard retails for $139.99. Combined, the combo usually sets you back $1,539.99.

Best Buy has knocked $440 off the bundle and is giving you a chance to get the 256GB Surface Pro 9 and a keyboard for $1,099.99. For a device as capable as the Surface Pro 9, that’s a really generous discount and the inclusion of a keyboard makes this deal unmissable.
