![]() If you think back to the original Surface Pro in 2012, it’s perhaps sobering to know that Microsoft originally thought that the Touch Cover would be the more successful peripheral because it provided a touch screen-like typing experience without hiding any of the display. But it’s also the best version yet, thanks to its integrated Surface Slim Pen 2 storage and charging tray.īut then, I’ve always liked Microsoft’s Type Covers. Windows Hello works swiftly and reliably to log you in, and thanks to the bundled fast charger a 30-minute charge will boost the battery by around 35% – just about enough for half a day’s work.In many ways, the new Signature Keyboard for Surface Pro 8 isn’t a major update when compared to Type Covers past. It offers an always-on, phone-like experience and LTE means you’ll get emails and notifications even when out of Wi-Fi range. If you don’t find any dealbreakers when checking through your app list, then the Surface Pro X could be exactly what you’re looking for. ![]() So, it will really depend upon what you want or need to do that will determine if a Surface Pro X is right for you. So you might want to use Microsoft’s latest Edge browser instead of Google Chrome. This means there’s also a penalty in battery life: run exclusively older x86 Windows apps and you’ll see around seven hours of battery life instead of the circa 10-12 hours you’ll get when running apps optimised for ARM. But you will notice that traditional Windows apps aren’t as snappy as running native ARM64 apps because 32-bit x86 apps is done using an emulation mode. You’d be right to expect great performance given what the Pro X costs, but this is another sticking point.
