Despite losing its value play, the Pro 8's boosted performance, smart redesign, and new stylus make the Surface Pro line an object of envy once again, and a repeat Editors' Choice winner among Windows tablets. And its expensive accessories jack up the price whichever config you choose, with the keyboard being essential if you aim to use the Pro 8 as a laptop replacement. Mind you, the $1,099.99 starting price is much higher than the Surface Pro 7's $749.99, reducing the appeal of its lower-end configurations. This is still a best-in-class detachable 2-in-1 in terms of design, and when paired with the improved 11th Generation Core i7 'Tiger Lake' processor in our model (and the advantages of Windows 11), this tablet can compete as a true laptop replacement. It's much more attractive, thanks to its new thin-bezel 13-inch screen, but its core functionality is otherwise unchanged.
