Microsoft’s Surface Pro is on sale just in time for the back-to-school season. The flagship 2-in-1 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite or Snapdragon X2 Plus processor, both of which promise a significant performance boost over the last generation.
A A bunch of Surface Pro models are on sale currently among various retailers. I’ve listed the biggest deals below, starting with 21% off Surface Pro with Snapdragon X2 Elite, 16GB RAM, and 1TB storage.
Why buy a Surface Pro?
The main reason to buy the newer Surface Pro is the processor you’ll be getting. The Snapdragon X2 Plus and Snapdragon X2 Elite offers more than 50% graphics improvement compared to the last generation.
This performance boost helps everything from photo editing to everyday productivity tasks feel smoother.
Microsoft has refined the Surface Pro’s design over more than a decade, resulting in a category-defining premium device. There are good reasons why Apple and other companies are trying to copy the Surface Pro.
While the imitation is a form of flattery, the Surface Pro still stands out with its built-in kickstand that makes it easy to stand. The kickstand-centric design is best taken advantage of with the Surface Pro Flex Keyboard, which is currently on sale.
The Surface Pro Flex keyboard on sale is compatible with the new Surface Pro launched this year. If you are worried about compatibility, you can double check your device Microsoft’s support document about Surface Pro keyboards.
The Surface Pro Flex Keyboard can be used wirelessly or when physically connected. If you’ve ever tried to use a laptop or 2-in-1 on an airplane tray table or small desk, you’ll know the struggle of feeling cramped. The Surface Pro Flex keyboard lets you keep the keyboard on your lap or on a desk while the computer sits elsewhere.
Like other computers, the Surface Pro has gone up in price over the past year. The Surface Pro’s high price tag was a major complaint about the PC when it was announced. The deals available on the Surface Pro alleviate that problem, at least temporarily.
