The best tablets often set too many goals and end up being mediocre but the Microsoft Surface 9 Pro 9 defies the notion that you can't please all kinds of users. The 8GB/128GB model has a well-deserved price tag of $999 but Best Best has marked it down by $100 at the moment.
The tablet PC flaunts a 13 inches screen which is large enough for getting work done but not unwieldy like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. It's a lovely high-resolution screen with a refresh rate of 120Hz.
The model on sale has the 12th Gen Intel Core i5 processor under the hood and can handle all sorts of tasks with ease. The Surface Pro 9 runs Windows 11 Home so it gives you the flexibility of traditional laptops in a compact form factor.
There's a kickstand on the back which can be used to prop up the device at various angles and it's stiff, so the tablet stays put at whichever angle you set it at.
This means that the device not only has an edge over other top slates when it comes to productivity because it's not held back by the operating system, but it's also better for content consumption, as you can place it anywhere you please and your hands will also thank you.
The device has a removable SSD so you won't have to worry about running out of storage or deleting your important documents and projects. It also has more ports than other tablets, including two USB-S Thunderbolt 4 ports and a Surface Connect port.
Currently, you can save $100 on the Surface Pro 9 and get the 128GB model for $899.99 instead of $999.99. That's a decent discount and you should grab it if you want a portable, lightweight tablet that you can use as your only laptop.
If you instead want a traditional laptop, Best Buy still has the amazing Surface Laptop 5 on sale. The retailer is selling the 8GB/256GB variant for $849.99 instead of $999.99, giving you a chance to save $150. The deal will end today so act fast. It's a great option for those who want a premium-looking laptop with a solid display and strong performance.
