Surface Pro 7+ comes in a more eco-friendly packaging system. Again, you won’t be able to buy one for yourself from Microsoft’s stores or partners. The Surface Pro 7+ come in brand new bulk packaging, device folios, that allow Microsoft to save space, minimize waste, and distribute the machines more broadly. Other notable Surface Pro 7+ features include the 1080p Full HD video camera, USB-C support, and support for up to two external 4K 60fps displays. The Surface Pro 7+ comes with a new cooling system that does not involve a fan – only for the Intel Core i3 and i5 options. The battery also supports fast-charging via Microsoft proprietary charging cable, which allows the tablet to recharge up to 80% in just about an hour. It’s the actual battery, which is now thicker than before, as Microsoft shrunk down the screen thickness. It’s not just the more efficient processor that allowed Microsoft to increase the battery life. The 2-in-1 also supports Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth.Īs for battery life, the new 15-hour estimate sounds a lot better than the Surface Pro 7’s 10.5 hours. The optional 4G connectivity is the kind of upgrade people working or studying from home might crave. This includes a user-replaceable SSD drive that can go up to 1TB of storage.

It works with the accessories you already own, and that’s definitely something that Microsoft is going for here.

It has the same generally unchanged design, including the same 12.3-inch display.

This isn’t the Pro 8 that you might have wanted. The Surface Pro 7+ offers plenty of upgrades over its predecessor, but not enough to warrant a new name. The new device has a replaceable SSD, significantly improved battery life, 11th-gen Intel Core processors, a redesigned thermal system, and 4G LTE support. That’s frustrating news for Surface Pro fans, especially considering that the Pro 7+ offers a few exciting upgrades. Instead, only businesses and schools can order the new 2-in-1 Surface Pro. The Surface Pro 7+ won’t be available in stores or online to regular consumers, though.
