Long story short: Said it's up to you. I would say they're extremely similar. So save your $$ and get the SP8.

[themanunleashed]

I got the surface pro 8 over the 9 because it was $400 cheaper for the i7 model. Plus, the 8 keeps the headphone jack.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME with this video. they don't say anything the front cover of the box would show (everything we already knew from specs). VIDEO DOESN'T EVEN GIVE YOU A RECOMMENDATION 😒 . if you want to save $ sp8 it is.

The lack of a 3.5mm jack is unforgivable for a working machine. Even so, the Surface Pro 9 is a better option due to a less hungry CPU, DDR5 memory, a longer battery life (even with a smaller battery), and repairability. Given the fact that Raptor Lake CPU (13the gen) has only little advantage over 12th gen Alder Lake, it's the right time to upgrade my old Surface Pro 6.

[jamesobrin]

It’s basically the same as the SP8, best to get the 8 at a better price or wait to see what next year offers

[smilingcanuck]

Not giving a recommendation is a total cop out. People are literally watching this for a professional opinion not a coin flip.

[stevencharette]

yup thats what i love every time a new version gets released i get to enjoy the perks of the previous gen i have a pro 8 and my gosh i love i will be keeping this one for a long long time.

[lennyfrisch]

The 9 does not have a 3.5mm jack so I needed an adapter and I wouild be "loosing" one usbc-port for my headset. Hard to understand that choice MS mad - so to me it´s clearely the pro 8 simply due to the 3.5mm jack.

[Revelation--tipm]

Surface Pro 9: no 3.5mm, less battery life, more money, no thanks.

[Michael-urqb]

Got mine Pro 8 for $849+196 for keyboard and pen. I say save the money.

[TheQuest]

Color options don't mean anything to me, because I always assume it's going to scratched to h*ll over time anyway so I put a skin on it.

[johndoe]

Kinda worthless comparison when you don’t bother with the most important components. At least throw in some speed tests FFS.

[michaelcorcoran]

What kind of rich people can upgrade on laptop like this every single year? I do love the green aesthetic though. I still kind of regret getting a boring aesthetic with my surface pro device from a few years ago.

[vladimirackermann]

I really don´t like that they removed the audio input. To me who use music creation apps it´s worthless to use.

[ice]

I'm guessing everyone bought the sp8 since blackfriday had good deals in Australia

[nichtEva]

Conclusion: Depends. I just saved you 3 minutes.

[haidarmuhannad]

Guys who has the ability to bend more? for writing.

[AdmiralBison]

The REAL upgrade is for the Arm version of the Surface Pro.

I’m interested to see the performance reviews of SQ3 Surface Pro 9

[Bro_DT]

I absolutely love my SP8... I don't see the point in upgrading

[zxtv]

I bought the 8 a week ago, intending to return it for the 9 when it came out hoping for some improvements in battery life at the very least. Turns out it's likely gonna be WORSE in the intel versions and aside from that its basically identical outside of my 8 still having a headphone jack. Kind of a huge letdown.
