Microsoft Surface 8 is a 2-in-1 Windows machine that offers something very unique.
While this uniqueness makes it a great buy, it also limits the use case of the machine
It may still not be your primary device but it lets you work where you want when you want.
Display
The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 comes with a 13-inch display which is packed in a much compact form factor.
The display comes with a 120Hz refresh rate and support for Dolby Vision. While it is not as good as on an OLED panel, it is still the best you can find otherwise.
Watching media on the device is a pleasure, the benefit of not being OLED is that the panel gets bright enough for outdoor spaces as well.
However, the thing I least appreciated was the reflectiveness of the display panel. Working in a well-lit area can become troublesome due to the glossiness of the panel..
Performance
The Microsoft Surface 8 starts from the Intel Core i5 variant and it will set you back by around Rs 1,15,999.
unit we worked with comes with 11th Gen Intel Core-i7 1185G7 with 16GB RAM. The machine we had handled workflows with ease.
The compact form factor has its own limitations but the Surface 8 Pro does a good job with heat dissipation despite its slimness.
form factor helps as well, if you keep it on your lap while working, the vents face the sides of the screen and the warm air doesn’t bother. On the other hand,
the 2-in-1 form factor does make laptop typing a challenge.
Battery
The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 battery claims are pretty bold. The company claims a battery life of 16 hours with typical device usage.
In my experience, the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 may not hit the 16 hour-mark but the battery life was undeniably one of the best for the performance it offers. A

Signature keyboard which is extremely convenient for both charge access. In order to test the Slim Pen 2, we asked illustrator to use it.
We found that Slim Pen 2 is extremely good with pressure sensitivity. However, it lacks the slant sketch feature which is found in the latest Apple Pen.
The 120Hz display also plays its part in reducing latency for the input substantially.
Verdict
The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is a great addition to your travel bag. It is an easy recommendation if you require mobility with performance. However,
the price tag can be a strong deterrent for non-professionals. But that’s what the ‘Pro’ stands for. The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is for the Pro on the move.
