Thank you for the great comparison review Andrew, good to have a channel like yours to see independent reviews. I'm actually surprised the Intel 12th generation had better battery life vs the 11th generation, it just seems that Intel prioritized power vs battery life in this iteration in most laptops. Personally, I'm choosing between the SP9 Intel and the Lenovo Z13...

The video and audio quality of the built in webcam and mics are clear on both but I think I prefer the one with ARM and 5g. The all metal design is always a plus with me. Nice to have decent audio and the Surface Pro 9 seems to deliver that. The problem with Microsoft is that when all is said and done with the extra peripherals you’ll be adding such as the keyboard to the package, it will get pricey as Andrew stated it. Once again, you’ll be better off getting a comparable Dell laptop and save yourself some money in the end. Great video once again Andrew! Appreciate it and appreciate you as well!! 👍😁

Why do MS refuse to provide such an excellent reviewer with sample devices? Surely it benefits them to have open and honest reviews? This was the only review I've seen that contained comparative analysis between the SP8, SP9 & SP9 SQ3/5G. This is really useful and unique. I am a Professor and record lectures and I need an ultraportable device that can do this on the fly. The SP9 SQ3 inbuilt mic array seemed to deliver audio recording that was almost on par with your expensive studio mics. It blew away the SP9. Am i correct in that assumption? Keep up the great work Andrew, you were on fire for this review!

Andrew very good and fair review. I love the Surface form factor. I'm on my 2nd. I had a Pro 7, and now have a Go 3 (10.5" tablet). I have found at work or home I seldom use a laptop on my lap, except to write this reply, short emails, things like that. So I like having just the display for watching You Tube, and docked between a full size keyboard and display the Surface is a great 2nd display to put things like the calculator, music player, calendar, While Windows is not a tablet OS I prefer that a Surface can be a full PC, over the touch 1st OS like iOS or Android. Lastly, buying last year's or waiting is generally a good way to low the cost to visit Surfaceland. LOL

I've been a surface pro user for a long time. After the 8 it's nice to see the relocated power button. There are alternatives, but usually they have some compromise, like not having a kickstand as with the Dell. Also here in Europe the alternatives are sold for the American normal price, not the "constant" discounted price, so they're way more expensive. I still would like to see an AMD powered pro, but with the laptop line going full intel again, I think it won't happen.

I am seriously conflicted between the Dell 2-in-1 and the Surface. Based on price and warranty, (you sometimes need that dang gone warranty). Since these are not available at dell anymore, you can find them at the dell outlet. Lowest cost one is $987, but when you add warranty, 2 to 3 year, dell adds $400. Now the Surface 9, I can get at Costco for $1099, with 2 year warranty included. Big Difference, is the CPU and Storage, RAM is the same. Very Big Difference.

Nice PC. Camera and Mics appeared good. User upgradeability is somewhat of an illusion if you can replace the SSD but can't easily find the proprietary part. Why can't Microsoft put in a standard SSD? The speed of this SSD is nothing special and putting in a gen 3 standard SSD makes more sense since it is much more readily available and allows easier upgradeability. I am sure Microsoft could have engineered this to accommodate a standard SSD. The problem with the ARM version is there is limited compatibility running some windows programs. Why pay this kind of money and handicap yourself with this limited compatibility? Port selection is very limited. For those people who like this type of unit they will be satisfied but also pay a premium price for it. Appreciate another great review. It is nice to see the different kinds of offerings these manufacturers put out. In the end everyone's tastes and needs are different.

I think using a 2230 SSD for the SP9 is exactly right. Saves weight, makes that small access panel easy to manufacture. It is the likes of Dell that irk. Dell make laptops that are designed to fit 2280 SSD's but still put in 2230's anyway to save money.
@mathewkortum977
@mathewkortum977 Жыл бұрын
The SSD in the Surface is in no way Proprietary. It uses the M.2 2230 (22mm wide, 30mm long) standard size NVME drives. While the M.2 2280 standard is more popular, the 2230 drives are still standard, and becoming increasingly popular as devices continue to be shrunk. Port selection for a Premium Tablet is excellent. The iPad pro has a single Thunderbolt port (although it uses next to none of the Thunderbolt fucntions) and the Samsung galaxy Tab S8 Ultra also has a single port. The Surface Pro 9 can be plugged in to power and have 2 additional USB devices plugged in at the same time.

For me, at $1000 want a type cover, pen, 8 gig of ram and 256gig for a base model. It doesn't have to be the top tier type cover or pen, but I want a complete set up. 128gig in my opinion is not enough storage for a premium device even though the ssd is replaceable. For 1k you can buy a gaming laptop with better specs than I listed at best buy and have 300+ left over for a tablet. You could buy a nice 2 in 1 laptop and have plenty left over. I have a hard time justifying the price.

How can you say it’s not lappable, when many people including me are lapping Surface Pros for years without any issue?

It can be used on the lap, whether it is ideal is another question.

@@andrewmarcdavid Unless you have very short upper legs, the Surface Pro lappability is almost similar to regular clamshells. Is it ideal? No, but it’s more than sufficient for everyday lap use. I even play action games on the Type Cover on my lap.

@@andrewmarcdavid I actually like the adjustability of the kickstand when using it on my lap or while in bed.. traditional laptops have barely any extra give when it comes to the angle and you'll need a surface pro or other 2 in 1 to have that flexibility which is a plus and very ideal in my opinion

I'd wait a couple of months and look for a Costco bundle deal. Usually, these bundles will save you $200-300. I guess I'm in the minority in that I find the SP reasonably comfortable on the lap.

Hi everyone. I was wondering if someone could please help me solve the flickering screen of my surface Pro 4, I7 16G RAM computer. Lately, my computer screen starts flickering within 10 min of start. Recently, I deleted the Intel (R) Iris (R) Graphics ( under the Display adapters) and upgraded as suggested under MS problem solving tools but did not resolve the problem. I will highly appreciate your inputs/suggestions to resolve my compter flickering screen. Thank you very much

I was debating getting the surface pro 9, ultimately went with a yoga 9i. The price difference for the same specs is astonishing. Not 2 mention the add on keyboard. Microsoft is extremely dumb to price this so high, that cant even compete with competition on battery/performance.

I'm still rocking on my SP8 and from what I can gather, I don't think I'm missing out on anything by NOT upgrading to SP9. Barely any changes, not even the look is different much. Just like how Apple changes their iPhone appearance lol ! :D

I've got a pro 8 as well, but I'm considering upgrading solely for the better placement of the power button. I use the pro 8 in portrait all the time and since the power button is on the bottom when I do I'm constantly turning off the display accidentally. The pro 9 finally put the power button back on the side for portrait mode

@@isaacgraham3684, as far as I know, there is some plastic /rubber cover you can place on top of the power button in case you are scared of accidently turning on the decide. Im using a full cover for the pro8 so my SP8 never turns on by accident when tossing it into the rucksack. The price to upgrade is just too much in my opinion. I will on the other hand though wait for next year to see if they implement bigger changes into SP10. Perhaps I will make my move then :) Disappointed that they didn't cooperate with AMD to have AMD chipset instead. Maybe that would solve the issues with the short battery time on the Non-Arm version.
