It might seem like a big jump from the Surface Pro 7's $749 price, but it's technically just $200 more when comparing the same configuration (though that's still pricey). The company also nixed the Core i3 processor model, so the base Surface Pro 8 comes with a Core i5 and starts at $1,100. There's a larger touchscreen display with a 120-Hz screen refresh rate, better performance, and it comes preloaded with Windows 11. The 2-in-1 isn't all that different from its predecessor, but its upgrades make it a worthy consideration for anyone looking for a new machine. The new Surface Pro 8 isn't quite the revamp you might have hoped for, but it's somewhere between a minor and a major refresh. These laptop-tablet hybrids have largely been kept alive with new processors and minor hardware upgrades over the years.
