notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession
lack of the SD-card reader
Pricing each model gets tricky
The camera app occasionally got stuck when I was trying to switch from front to rear
it s not likely to solve the problems with Windows on Arm
only a small group of apps currently seem to support this haptic feedback
it s a bit thicker and heavier than its predecessors
you're also not limited to running watered-down applications
lack of Thunderbolt 4
The lack of ports also makes adding additional peripherals a bit of a pain
as bright as the 2020 iPad Pro
does not provide an expected lifespan for the Pro 8 s battery
Windows 11 is still a little rough around the edges but
spending too much time on Twitter
Audio quality suffers when it's set to maximum
it lacks in the gaming department

falling out and getting lost
battery life takes a hit
The performance is not on the same level as a gaming laptop
two-in-one hybrid
not a laptop
not all was perfect
Windows 10 was also buggy early on
Horrendous battery life was also an early issue with reviews nailing
Windows 8 was received terribly
s a little plastic bar for the antennas
the entry-level version got much more expensive
price and the battery life could be longer
the display has a FullHD resolution only
no sign of any other random apps or games stealing your precious SSD space
Microsoft has shaved off the sides of the screen
chip inside the Surface Pro X is not made by Intel
but also frustrating at the same time
iPad Pro too had the built-in kickstand
there is no headphone jack or microSD card slot
Slim Pen can only be charged on one side
premium does not equal performance
lack of a headphone jack
slow and clunky
lack of a headphone jack becomes a pain point
Brightness put the ball back in the Surface Pro 8's
Twitter icon A stylized bird with an open mouth
doesn't bump the Surface Pro 8 into a new category
keyboards are always a little more expensive than you'd like
lack of USB-C/Thunderbolt 3
no USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port
It symobilizes a website link url
The bezel around the display is quite thick
slimline bezels get you a full 13-inch display
the trackpad feels largely untouched
Microsoft s Surface line is not your workplace workhorse
Microsoft is heavily in the hardware game now
the Surface Pro 8 is basically a glorified tablet
