Put them side by side and ask anyones to identify the newer model, and they’ll probably struggle.Įven the internals haven’t seen much of an update, although the entry-level m3 processor has now been ditched, which makes sense. Surface Pro 7 specsįirst things first, the Surface Pro 7 is not a huge lunar leap away from the Surface Pro 6. A MacBook Air, for example, weighs 2.75 pounds.

It’s hardly waif-like, but compared to a traditional laptop, light enough. The device weighs 1.7 pounds without the keyboard, making it heavier than the iPad pro (1.39 pounds). In your hands, the Surface Pro 7 feels reassuringly substantial, especially with the keyboard cover attached. The kickstand really does need a flat surface, and unless you’re a medical oddity, that doesn’t include your knees. Like most hybrids though, it doesn’t feel too secure on your lap. The days of precariously balancing your tablet against the salt cellar in a cafe are now officially over, and what’s more, this thing is sturdier than Bill Gates’ bank balance. This is thanks in part to the kickstand, the built in support that folds out to hold the Pro solid when in tabletop mode. The Surface Pro 7 pitches itself as a laptop/tablet hybrid, and honestly, it’s one of the more convincing examples out there. It’s a powerful device, with a great screen and some convincing specs if you opt for the top-end model (more on those options, later). If you’re after a device that can sit comfortably on the line between laptop and tablet, then the Surface Pro 7 is about as good a choice as you can make.
