With the holidays behind us, you’d think tablet deals and Surface Pro deals would be well behind us. Well, think again. Now is the perfect time to invest in a Microsoft Surface Pro 7. In fact, right now, you can get $360 off the 12.3-inch Microsoft Surface Pro 7 at Best Buy. It’s only $599, down from its regular price of $959. Considering that just a few months ago this tablet was retailing for over $1300, this is a deal not to be missed.
Tablets are increasingly able to take the place of our laptops whether at work or at home, and the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is a perfect example of why — especially when you add a type cover, like in this deal from Best Buy. This is for a tablet user who is on the busier side of things, with USB-C functionality, as well as faster processors than in previous Surface Pro versions. We also love the type cover, which works supremely well, and the 3:2 ratio screen, PixelSense Display is as sharp as ever. Basically, Microsoft kept the best parts and only added to them.
One of the best features of the Surface Pro 7 is its touchscreen, which is hyper-responsive, but not overly sensitive. It’s ideal for preparing visual presentations for work, or school, or just navigating this machine (it’s also perfect for streaming your favorite shows from Netflix or Disney +, or keeping the kids entertained in the car). This gorgeous, user-friendly screen and high functionality mean that you can be poring over numbers on your work Zoom call, and then five minutes later relaxing on the couch with your favorite game or show. Speaking of Zoom, now that video calls are such an important part of work-life, the front-facing camera with 1080p full HD video becomes a key player in the Surface Pro 7’s utility.
All that utility comes from some serious computing power, namely that the Surface Pro 7 is powered by the most recent Intel 10th-generation iCore processor backed up with a whopping 8GB of memory and a 256GB SSD hard drive for storage (decent for a laptop, but huge for a tablet). Also, they’ve added USB-C (it’s got a USB-A, too) for file transfers and charging, so it’s faster than ever. The detachable type cover is full-size, provides backlit keys, and there’s even an extra-large glass trackpad, for pinpoint control. If you want to get even more creative, add the Surface Pen (sold separately). The Surface Pro 7 is elegant, fast, and boasts all-day battery life — 10.5 hours before it needs to recharge.
This is a great opportunity to grab a whopping $360 off the Microsoft Surface Pro 7. It’s down to $599 at Best Buy, which is a huge reduction from its regular price of $959. If you’re looking for a new tablet or considering switching out your laptop for a tablet, this could be the deal you’ve been waiting for.
