My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: The Microsoft Surface Pro

The Microsoft Surface Pro 11 is a tablet/laptop hybrid that came out last summer and quickly rose to become one of the best laptops for college students. It is sleek and has a long battery life, and its comfort and ease of use as a tablet make it great for hands-on learning. It starts at $799.99 (originally $999.99) for the most basic version (which is powerful enough for most people), $879.99 (originally $1,199.99) if you want to double the storage to 512GB, and $1,399.99 (originally $1,699.99) to max out the storage with 1TB.

With either, you'll get a 13-inch touch LCD display, 16GB of RAM, and the Snapdragon X Plus (10 Core) processor. The former is at the lowest price it has been since its 2024 release, according to price-tracking tools.

Last year, Microsoft unveiled the new lineup of Surface computers included in its Copilot+ PC Windows AI lineup, which Microsoft claims are faster than the new M3 MacBooks. It runs the Snapdragon X Elite and Plus chip and comes with all the Copilot+ PC perks. Here is how Senior Tech Editor Jake Peterson described the Surface Pro:

If you're looking for a machine with a detachable tablet, that's the Surface Pro. The latest 2-in-1 Surface comes in an optional 13-inch OLED configuration, with an ultrawide camera, two USB-4 ports, Wi-Fi 7, and support for outputting to up to three external 4K displays. Notably, you can actually replace many of the parts of the Surface Pro, including the motherboard, battery, and cameras. (What year is this?) Finally, the new Surface Flex Keyboard actually works while detached, so you don't need to physically connect it to the display in order to type.

Lifehacker tech writer David Nield got his hands on one of these Surface Pro 11 and called it "almost the perfect tablet/laptop hybrid" in his review.

I've been a loyal customer of the Surface Pro tablets for many years and can attest to their user-friendliness, reliability, and performance. I love being able to use my hands when needed and turn it into a tablet when using the stylus to take notes, sign documents, or just sketch. Keep in mind you'll still need to buy the keyboard and stylus separately.
