Surface Pro 11th Edition can now be yours at up to $500 off

While Surface Pro tablets are never cheap, this new discount at Amazon brings the 11th Edition of Microsoft's Windows-powered tablet to a much more reasonable price. The model with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage can now be yours for just under $1,300. 

I agree that this is still a pretty hefty asking price; it's almost as much as the newly launched Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra. But when you consider that Microsoft usually sells the Surface Pro 11 for $1,800 in this configuration (with OLED display and powerful 12-core Snapdragon chip), the promo actually looks much more compelling.

• If you're looking for an Android alternative, the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite is just $299 at Walmart, making it a great fit for many.

If you'd rather get a cheaper alternative, the Surface Pro 11 with an LCD display and a Snapdragon X Plus chip is another great pick. Right now, Amazon sells it for just under $1,100, saving you $400 on its original price.

The Surface Pro 11 puts Copilot+ features at your fingertips, allowing you to translate spoken language in real time, find files and information using Recall, and enhance your video calls with AI-powered effects.

On top of that, the device packs a 13-inch touchscreen with the iconic built-in kickstand. You can adjust it to 165 degrees, letting you position it at an angle that works best for you. 

Let's not overlook the battery life. Microsoft claims the Surface Pro makes it up to 15 hours on a single charge, which should be more than enough for most users. 

Bottom line: the Surface Pro 11 delivers plenty at a much more reasonable price. If you've been waiting for the right time to grab it, this might just be it. Act fast and save $500 on the model while you still can.
