Reviews for the Microsoft Surface Pro 7

88.1% Microsoft Surface Pro 7 Review: An i7 Upgrade with Extra GPU Performance | Notebookcheck
The Surface Pro 7 features the best of what Microsoft has to offer. However, the Core i7 CPU might not be worth its price premium under all circumstances. In this particular case more CPU power also means more GPU power.
80% Microsoft Surface Pro 7 review: A 2-in-1 badly in need of an overhaul
Source: Expert Reviews English
Microsoft might well argue that it hasn’t neglected the Surface Pro 7. It’s added USB Type-C and upgraded the internals, too, but all the evidence points to a hybrid that’s badly in need of an update. The design is still nice, as ever, but it’s beginning to look dated. Meanwhile, the new silicone inside seems to be limited by the chassis. To cap it off, battery life is less impressive than I’d like it to be. Heck, Microsoft couldn’t even be bothered to borrow the neat docking system for the Surface Pen from the Surface Pro X – it still mounts magnetically to the side of the tablet whereas the Pro X has a handy pen-sized slot at the top of the keyboard. The Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is perfectly serviceable, don’t get me wrong, but it’s a marginal update that fails in any way to get the pulse racing.

We expected a bit more in advancements from the seventh Surface Pro tablet. USB-C is nice, but for a device at this price, its should be Thunderbolt 3. Plus, the display bezels are awfully thick for a tablet in 2019. The Surface Pro 7 isn’t big enough of a leap over the Pro 6 for us to recommend it to either upgraders or folks just getting into Microsoft’s tablet.

The Surface Pro 7 is now $599, but should you buy one? (fanless i5 model, mini-review)
Source: Ultrabook Review English
Lastly, I think 12.3″ is a bit small these days, honestly. I would like to see a more “professional” Surface Pro one day that brings back active cooling, gives us a 14″+ screen, and actually hits 8+ hours of battery life. When that happens, maybe I’ll give the SP lineup another go. For now, this one is going up on eBay.

While the Pro 7 is another fine entry in the line and tops among mainstream Windows tablets, I wouldn't tell Surface Pro 6 users to run out and get one. But if you're working with something older, or this type of device would make your working-at-home experience better, it's still one of the best 2-in-1s available. There hasn't been much worthy competition in the time since release, though the coming Lenovo ThinkPad X12 Detachable has our attention. The Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 is better all around as a laptop, if that's your primary concern, but the Surface Pro sets the bar for 2-in-1s in the Windows-tablet mode.

Spending a few weeks with the Surface Pro
Source: Tech Girl English Archive.org version
When it was time to pack the Surface Pro up and send it back I felt a twang of sadness. I’m used to using devices for a short while and returning them, but it isn’t often that I get attached. This time I did. I could easily see myself using the Surface Pro as my “work” device. While it is a tablet, it honestly felt just as good as a laptop and offered slightly more with its ability to turn into a notebook when I needed it for meetings or broadcast work. Its versatile and I think could easily look at it as a possible replacement for my MacBook with my desktop being my go to if needed for my heavy video editing.

Microsoft itself knows that the Surface Pro line is getting a little stale, which is why it launched the Surface Pro X alongside. This lighter, slicker model is based on an Arm CPU, not a traditional Intel/ x86 one, which means there might be some incompatibilities and adjustments in the near term, but it is a sign of things to come. The Surface Pro 7 thus serves a shrinking niche. It's still a great portable computer, but it isn't for everyone.

The Surface Pro 7 is ideal for those in the Windows ecosystem who need a device that is both powerful and mobile. But I am not sure you should look at this option if the portability is not something you really want. But the way Microsoft has made this, usability and convenience is not really an issue.

Still the best Windows 2-in-1 around, but it remains ahead due to the lack of highly recommendable alternatives. The performance upgrade here is excellent, but design-wise the huge bezels now look dated and Microsoft's dedication to Surface Connect is somewhat puzzling.

If you’re going to get the use out of the portability and flexible nature of the 2-in-1, the Surface Pro 7 is well worth considering, especially with the upgrades on offer compared to the Pro 6, but there are more powerful laptops at a similar price if processing power is key.

Comment

Model:

Microsoft has to be applauded for its bold move of releasing two Surface Pro tablets together, namely the Pro X and Pro 7. However, it should be noted that the two serve different markets altogether. While the Pro X is a higher-priced, sleeker professional tablet, the Pro 7 is a more affordable version of the Surface Pro variants, bearing some similarities with its earlier releases. 

The Surface Pro models are known for their halfway-house combination between a tablet and laptop. The 2-in-1 criterion had always set these models apart from other Microsoft products. The Surface Pro 7 certainly propels the legacy forward. Despite sharing the same screen size of 12.3 inches, which is similar to its predecessor, the Pro 6, the Pro 7 does have more to offer. One of the notable differences would be the added feature of the Surface Pen, which can be directly used to write on Microsoft Office applications using the built-in hand-writing recognition function. The Surface Pro 7 also has much better far-field microphones for an improved user experience. While the Surface Pro 6 was powered by Intel’s 8th-gen processors, the Pro 7 was introduced with Intel’s new Ice-Lake 10th-gen chips. In comparison to the Pro 6, the newer processor of the Pro 7 offers a 20% performance improvement. It is definitely more competent in various areas, which includes but is not to limited to 3D rendering, video encoding and crunching equations. This will improve the overall general performance as compared to older processors. On top of that, it also comes equipped with Intel’s new Iris Plus integrated graphics. The new Iris Plus graphics make gaming in 1080p viable, though not at ultra-settings. However, it should be noted that this is not included with the Pro 7 version with the i3 processor. The Pro 7 model with an i3 processor and 4 GB of RAM may be a variant of the Pro 7 model, but it is probably only recommendable for users who run lighter applications.

The Surface Pro 7 comes with a MicroSDXC slot replacing the Surface Pro 6’s MicroSD slot. This simply means that the Pro 7 can accommodate higher-capacity SD cards, because MicroSD cards will work on MicroSDXC slots, but the reverse is not possible. Even though the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 does prove to have some notable differences from its Pro 6 variant, the similarities are quite obvious, too. For nearly three generations of Surface Pros, including the 5, 6 and 7, the box of the keyboard has been the same with no changes. Some also claim the Pro 7 has an undeniable similarity with its sibling, the Surface Pro 4. The Surface Pro 7 might not be able to fulfil the generational leap that was missing in the Pro 6, but Microsoft might be saving the majority of its hardware and innovations for products that will be unleashed in the near and distant horizons.

Series:

Microsoft Surface Pro (2017) is the fifth generation in the Surface Pro family. The Surface Pro is solid as a rock and exudes a sense of futuristic quality. It’s also well-designed, with a look and feels that, while minimally changed from the Surface Pro 4, is still an improvement. The corners are more rounded, and the exhaust vents along the edges are less pronounced.  There aren’t many moving parts in the Surface Pro itself. The power and volume buttons along the top are easy to find by feel, and have a crisp action, while the kickstand is smooth and reliably holds the tablet at chosen angle. It now opens up to 165 degrees, an increase from the Surface Pro 4, which opened 150 degrees. Fully flexed, the kickstand can turn Surface Pro into a nearly-flat slate. If a user decides to flip into tablet mode for a moment and fold back the Type Cover, the keyboard will turn off when the cover is tucked back. It can even switch Windows 10 into tablet mode if desired. It attaches to the tablet with strong magnets and connects via a physical port, meaning there’s zero lag when typing. The Surface Pro sports two front-firing speakers on each side of the display. There are small cutouts in the glass to let the sound through, and the design provides impressive sound for a tablet. Music is great, with surprising range, and there’s even a hint of bass. The speakers also get surprisingly loud and can fill a decent sized room without distorting.

The Surface Pro features up to a seventh-generation Intel Core i7, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. It is seen that the Surface Pro offers a cutting-edge CPU, solid RAM and SSD options, and full support for all of Microsoft’s most innovative Windows 10 technologies. All that will keep the machine relevant for years to come. The Surface Pro is refreshingly light on bloatware. While it’s stocked with the usual Microsoft Windows 10 apps and a handful of casual games, it’s otherwise unencumbered with junk software. The Surface utility is also a nice app that offers the ability to configure the Surface Pen and get some useful information about your machine. Microsoft is using a 45-watt-hour battery in the Surface Pro, which is an increase from the 38 watt-hour battery that was packed into the Surface Pro 4. The Surface Pro also uses more efficient seventh-generation Intel Core processors. Taken together, the new model offers improved battery life over its predecessor. The Surface Pro is eminently portable, at 0.33 inches thick and 1.73 pounds. Even with the Signature Type Cover attached, the machine is easy to carry around and slip into a bag. It might not be quite as thin and light as the iPad Pro, but it’s also a much more powerful machine that can run real PC applications. The Surface Pro bring a whole new meaning to the word tablet. It is a iPad like device but is actually a real computer.

Intel Iris Plus Graphics G7 (Ice Lake 64 EU): Integrated graphics card in Intel Ice-Lake G7 SoCs based on the new Gen. 11 architecture with 64 EUs (Execution Units / Shader Cluster). The clock rate depends on the processor model ranging from 300 MHz base to 1050 - 1100 MHz boost. The Ice-Lake chips are produced in the modern 10nm process at Intel produced.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


i7-1065G7: Ice Lake-based quad-core processor for thin and light laptops. The four cores are clocked at 1.3 GHz to 3.9 GHz and should offer 18% more IPC (instructions per clock) than the previous generations (and therefore partly close the clock speed gap). Produced on first-gen 10 nm Intel process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


12.30":

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.

The same applies to tablets in this size range.

Microsoft:

Microsoft smartphones and tablets have been tested since 2012. There are many reviews with average ratings. The reader's interest is quite given, but the market share is not big enough for the Top 5 smartphone manufacturers (as of 2016).


78.68%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
