Thanks to being a bit too stiff, you can use it effortlessly with a Surface Pen, without worrying it will move and ruin your work. It lets you position the Surface Pro X in pretty much every angle from around 80-degrees, down to 10. You can pop it open by gripping it with your fingers, thanks to the two cutouts on each side. Also, there are a couple of speakers placed on either side of the display. And while the structure is pretty rigid, we found it very slippery, so you might be wanting to pair it with a dedicated keyboard, which will make it far easier to handle. As of the weight, the Surface Pro X stops the scales at 774 grams. In terms of measurements, we are talking about a 7.3mm thin profile, which makes it look incredibly fragile. Interestingly, the top part of the tablet is plastic, which is where the Wi-Fi and LTE antennas are located. Anodized aluminum on the back with a glass cover on top of the display. When it comes to the quality of build, this device definitely justifies its premium price tag.

And on top of this, Microsoft gives you a 13-inch “PixelSense” display with 2880×1920 resolution, 3:2 aspect ratio, and Pen support. It includes 8 cores, 4 of which are Kryo 495 Gold (ARM Cortex-A76), and 4 more Kryo 495 Silver units (ARM Cortex-A55).Īs for the graphics card, it comes with the SoC, and it is the Adreno 685, which should deliver better performance than most of the ARM smartphones out there. However, the Microsoft SQ1 CPU is based on the Snapdragon 8sx and features a higher clock (3.00 GHz, compared to 2.84 GHz for the latter). This means that 64-bit programs are pretty much out of the question. One of the main reasons why is the ARM architecture it uses. Now, we have the Surface Pro X, which has a pretty euphonious name but is an inferior device, compared to the Surface Pro 7. Without a doubt, its strongest ace was the Ice Lake processor inside, which meant you can run pretty much every app on Windows.

Not long ago we managed to snatch a Surface Pro 7 for review, and we were baffled by the versatility this tablet offered.
