Surface Pro 9

My partner uses an Intel i7-based Microsoft Surface Pro 8. Her university provides Microsoft, Zoom, Canvas and Adobe, so she has the option of taking notes, sharing, collaborating etc. on any of those platforms. These clouds (and Google's, of course) are accessible on her phone as well, so in the ev

heads up that pro 3 accessories won't work on newer models since they changed the design after the pro 4. for med school the Surface Pro 7+ is still solid if you find a good deal. the Surface Pro 9 with intel is worth it if you want the newer form factor and better battery life for long days. both w

I use the Adobe suite which is far more power-intensive than Microsoft's software and it runs well on my Surface Pro 11 (13"). There are better specs on the Surface Pro than the Surface Laptop line.

Just got mine last week. Same specs but with the IPS screen! Already installed a smart card reader on my own and then took it on a cross country work trip. Pretty much met all my expectations. Battery life was a solid 11-13 hours of web browsing, Spotify streaming, and some YouTube while in flight.

if you really value battery life, you should look at the Surface Pro 11 with the Qualcomm X Plus processor (10 cores) or the Qualcomm X Elite processor (12 cores) (now called the Surface Pro 13"). Or the Surface Pro 12" which has the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus (8 Core). I love my Surface Pro 9, but
