Though do keep in mind that Type Covers are sold separately. The best part about Surface Pro 7 is the price, which comes in at $749, a massive discount compared to the Surface Book 3. However, it'll keep up with most tasks and allow you to use it on the go, thanks to its lighter build. But you won't be stressing it with games since you can't upgrade to dedicated GPUs inside the tablet like you can in the Surface Book 3. The battery on the Pro 7 is around 10 hours. That's so long as you keep the tablet portion of the Surface Book 3 connected to its keyboard base (which also houses an additional battery). Where the Surface Book 3 truly shines against the Surface Pro 7 is battery life, allowing you to go up to 17 and a half hours before needing to find a power outlet. Pricing starts from $1,600 and $2,300 for the 13.5- and 15-inch Surface Book 3, respectively.

The same goes for storage, which can go up to a whopping 2TB with the 15-inch Surface Book 3. The smaller Surface Book 3 can only take the GTX 1650 (Max-Q) or Intel Iris Plus. The 13.5-inch model is available with the same 10th Gen Intel processors the larger 15-inch model has, though you won't be able to enjoy either the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (Max-Q) or Quadro RTX 3000 dedicated GPUs.

Like other Microsoft PCs, Surface Book 3 can be configured with various specifications. Four thousand ninety-six levels of pressure sensitivity and tilt support are present throughout, and you can combine a Surface Dial for improved productivity - though the Pro 7 only supports the dial off screen. Two Surface Connect ports (1 in tablet, 1 in keyboard base)Īll three Surface PCs have an aspect ratio of 3:2, and all are compatible with Surface Pen for inking.
