Microsoft created a new stylus called the Slim Pen to go with the Pro X, and it'll cost you an extra $145. This isn't a dealbreaker, but if you're looking for rich, rounded audio, you'll need to hook up your own earphones. Similarly, actors in a blooper reel for The Good Place sounded canned. I listened to the latest episode of the Engadget Podcast through the tablet's speakers and found the voices a little tinny.
Audio, on the other hand, was a little underwhelming. The Pro X runs at 2,880 x 1,920 and most videos and images looked crisp and colorful on its display. Granted, that panel is slightly smaller, at 12.3 inches, but the two devices have the same pixel density. The thinner bezels and 3:2 aspect ratio on the Pro X's 13-inch screen make it feel more expansive than the Pro 7, too. Despite its light footprint, the Pro X feels super sturdy and classy and like a more premium device than the Intel-powered Pro 7.īy subscribing, you are agreeing to Engadget's Terms and Privacy Policy. There's still a handy kickstand built in that can rotate almost 180 degrees so the Pro X can be propped up at a surprisingly shallow and useful 15 degree angle. The device is also impressively thin, at 5.3 mm, and weighs a mere 1.68 pounds. Its minimal bezels make it look more like the iPad Pro 12.9-inch than a Surface. After having recently reviewed the outdated-looking Surface Pro 7, I found the Pro X a joy to behold. Elegant, modern designīut first, let's take a minute to talk about its looks. The Surface Pro X is Microsoft's latest attempt at making Windows run on an ARM-powered device, after the mess that was the Surface RT.
It uses a custom chipset that Microsoft says is the fastest ARM processor in a PC and has an integrated gigabit LTE radio for speedy cellular data. Cosmetically, this thing is a major upgrade, but the Surface Pro X is also different on the inside. The Surface Pro X is the thinnest Surface yet, with the slimmest bezels I've ever seen on a Microsoft tablet.
