Microsoft Surface Pro 9 review: a truly transformable 2-in-1 laptop

 

The Microsoft Surface Pro 9 can be used just as comfortably as a laptop as it can a tablet

Easy to use as a tablet ; 13-inch PixelSense Flow display ; Uses Windows 11 ; Available in a 5G option

Not as powerful as elsewhere ; Lacks an SD card slot and extra ports ; Surface Pro Signature Keyboard comes separately

If you want a tablet that you can use just as easily for computing, the Microsoft Surface Pro 9 is a great choice. It may not pack the same level of power as more traditional laptops but it's also much more lightweight than any of those.

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 5G review

 

An excellent work companion with some issues

Excellent design ; Big, responsive screen ; Great battery life ; Built-in 5G ; Surface Pro Signature Keyboard Cover and Slim Pen 2 are perfect companions

ARM introduces some system compatibility and stability issues ; You'll pay extra for the keyboard and pen you want and need ; Expensive

With its bigger screen, nested and slim pencil, and day-beating battery life, the Surface Pro 9 5G moves Microsoft's Surface line in the right direction, but the custom ARM chip brings with it a host of hiccups.

Hands on: Microsoft Surface Pro 9 review

 

Two options and a tough choice

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 initial review: Is now the time to go with 5G?

 

Microsoft has pulled the cover off its ninth generation Surface - but the biggest change is offering a Qualcomm-powered device with 5G alongside

Intel or ARM choice ; Great display ; Great type cover ; New colours ; Long battery life

Different spec on different models ; Keyboard costs extra ; Expensive

The Surface Pro 9 follows what the Surface Pro has been doing for some time, only really updating the internal hardware to the latest version. However, with the arrival of the Surface Pro 9 with 5G, there's new internal hardware, new skills and the...

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 review: the best 2-in-1 around

 

The Surface Pro 9 offers decent performance underneath the remarkably sleek shell if you pick carefully

Excellent on-the-go-performance ; Lightweight, full-fat computing ; Brilliant display

Can get expensive ; Stylus and keyboard add to cost ; ARM model needs better app support

Excellent performance throughout. You’ll be beguiled by the gorgeous screen and lightweight design. Though you should avoid the ARM-based model. And things can get quite expensive quite quickly.

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 review

 

The ARM-based Surface Pro 9 is an exciting step for Microsoft's flagship 2-in-1, but most people will be better off with the Intel model

Stellar battery life ; Gorgeous design and screen ; Great keyboard and pen experience ; Excellent webcam with extra ARM features

Underwhelming performance ; Poor port selection ; Not all apps are compatible with ARM ; Expensive, with keyboard still sold separately

The ARM-based model of the Surface Pro 9 is one of the best devices you shouldn’t buy, with superb battery life and extra webcam features let down by a clear drop in performance and reduced app compatibility. Go for the Intel version instead.

Microsoft Surface Pro 9

  (Rating Hidden)

Microsoft's premier tablets are about as quick and powerful as tablets get. They have a price to match, and even at its most basic spec the Surface Pro 9 costs close to £1,100. If your needs extend beyond simple video and internet tasks there's a range...

Surface Pro 9: The most powerful Surface Pro ever, with the Microsoft SQ3 chip

 

The Surface Pro 9 with the Microsoft SQ3 chip is a powerful and versatile 2-in-1 tablet that offers long battery life, a bright and responsive display, and good connectivity. However, it's more expensive than the Intel model and not all Windows apps...

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 review: Still excellent, still expensive

 

The Surface Pro 9 isn't a huge update, but it gets Intel's newest 12th Gen Core processors that are supposed to be faster and more efficient. So let's see if the new Surface Pro 9 runs any faster and lasts any longer.

Excellent, high refresh rate display ; Good performance ; Thunderbolt 4/USB4 USB-C ports ; Can truly be used as a tablet ; Thin and light

Pricey ; Accessories sold separately ; Only two USB-C ports ; Smaller battery, reduced battery life

The TL;DR version: This is still one of, if not the best 2-in-1 ultraportable Windows device you can buy. The only stumbling block is its high price.
