I installed all the apps necessary for my workflow – Google Chrome and WhatsApp for Windows, and both of them worked great, although with a caveat. With the newest Windows 11 update, the Surface Pro X eliminates most of the compatibility issues reviewers faced back in 2019. Its age shows while using the Surface Pro X as a laptop. The Microsoft SQ1 System-On-Chip here is based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon platform and is almost over two years old now. On the Surface Pro X, that's not the case. When Apple says its iPad is meant for the Pros, we know it means business. I also found the auto-brightness to be erratic. Additionally, with just the 60Hz of refresh rate, it isn't the most agile tablet display I have seen lately on a high-end tablet. That said, the iPad Pro and Samsung's equivalent Galaxy Tab tablets have more advanced displays that throw up brighter colours. The 3:2 aspect ratio makes it perfect for working with the keyboard and mouse attached. Whether it's the fancy Windows 11 interface or web shows on Prime Video, it is a joy to watch them on the Surface Pro X. At 2880 x 1920 pixels, this is a very high-resolution display and has a great colour profile to flaunt. With its 13.3-inch PixelSense display, the Surface Pro X makes working on it a breeze. Every tablet SHOULD have a kickstand built-in. The adjustable kickstand is a blessing for us professionals, especially when you have attached the keyboard cover. Plus, the face has got a lot of strong magnets to hold on to the Surface keyboard cover securely.Īt 774 grams, it isn't a very comfortable tablet to move around with, but the slim body makes it somewhat easy to grab and get work done in the tablet mode. Oh, if you notice carefully, you will find the 2W stereo speakers cleverly hidden on the seams of the display bezel. Those slim bezels at the front also house a 5MP video call camera surrounded with IR sensors for Windows Hello-based face unlock tech. A 10MP camera is present for scanning documents, or shooting video in 4K. There's a built-in kickstand on the rear that neatly tucks in with the rest of the body when closed.

The 3:2 display makes for a unique form factor, but works wonders while doing office work. The Surface Pro X looks like a larger iPad Pro with slightly thicker bezels on two sides. Microsoft Surface Pro X (Amritanshu / HT Tech)
