Microsoft Surface Pro 6 with Intel Core i5 and keyboard goes $330 off list today only

While it certainly doesn’t look radically different from its 2017 predecessor on the outside, the Surface Pro 6 was billed by Microsoft at its October 2018 launch event as “more than 67 percent faster” than the 5th generation model.

Despite that massive processing power upgrade, we’ve seen quite a few decent deals offered on the refreshed 2-in-1 detachable tablet computer already, culminating with a one day-only “doorbuster” available at Best Buy and the US Microsoft Store right now.

This killer bargain lets you save a whopping $330 off the combined list price of an Intel Core i5 variant of the Microsoft Surface Pro 6 and a black keyboard accessory. Specifically, we’re talking about an i5 configuration with a speedy 256GB SSD and hefty 8GB RAM, normally valued at $1,199, and a standard, non-Signature Surface Pro Type Cover, which separately costs $130 by itself.

Instead of coughing up a whopping $1,329 for this excellent bundle, you can now pay just $999 in total. Remember that you need to hurry, though, as the deal is set to expire at 11:59 PST today, December 17. And something tells us this type of hefty discount will not return anytime soon. Definitely not before Christmas.

When paired with that keyboard, the Surface Pro 6 tablet basically morphs into a productive, powerful, and lightweight Windows 10 laptop, packing 8th Gen Intel Core processing muscle, as well as a gargantuan battery capable of keeping the lights on for up to 13.5 hours of continuous video playback, despite having to handle a sharp 12.3-inch PixelSense display with 2736 x 1824 resolution.
