But there are many changes to the Surface Pro formula here, all of which seem designed to answer critics and delight fans. Well, not literally: Surface Pro 8 is still a tablet PC with the same basic form factor as its predecessors, and it still provides a 3:2 display panel, a terrific kickstand, and a Surface Connector port. Over time, even Microsoft’s most ardent supporters worried that Surface was falling behind. And it ignored technological innovations like the Thunderbolt ports that Apple and its PC maker competitors long ago embraced. Surface Pro 3 featured several features that have come to define Surface ever since-including its unique 3:2 aspect ratio display, multi-angle kickstand, Surface Connect port, natural magnesium coloring, and full-sized Type Cover-and it mostly lived up to Microsoft’s claims of a tablet that could replace your laptop.īut in some ways, Surface Pro 3 was also too successful: Microsoft stubbornly stuck with this form factor and design for the next several years and product iterations, as if worried it would anger fans by making substantive changes. Though Surface Pro dates back to 2012, it wasn’t until Surface Pro 3 in 2014 that Microsoft introduced its first hit computer product. It’s also the most powerful and useful tablet PC I’ve ever used.
With its larger 13-inch display, Thunderbolt 4 ports, and Intel Evo innards, the Surface Pro 8 is exactly what fans of this product line have always wanted.
