Surface Pro 8 REVIEW - What NOBODY Tells YOU!

Surface Pro 8 REVIEW - What NOBODY Tells YOU!

I am looking at the Surface Pro 8 Review today to see what happened once set up. The setup of the Surface Pro 8 Review felt sleek, however along the way I encountered some hicks up during my Surface Pro 8 Review!

You can use the trackpad without clicking. One finger touch is left mouse button. Two fingers touch is right button. I personally find this way of working way faster than physically clicking.

FYI they've fixed the touch keyboard issue. I had the same issue. I bought the i7 16gb version. Performance is so much better than my base model Surface Book 3. Runs like a dream. I think the return of active cooling probably helps.

On the Surface Prox with LTE when removing the keyboard there is a small keyboard icon you have to press on the right side of the taskbar and then the keyboard comes up. You can also customize the virtual keyboard to look different and to either start as a keyboard or a writing pad. Experiencing noissue whatsoever with Window 11 on this one. Great video as always.

ur a legend. no one has mentioned any of the things you've mentioned. And as a user of the surface pro 5, I've had the same keyboard issue. I eventually had to put a KB icon on the taskbar bc the normal mechanism for it to come up is so glitchy (even to this day).

Thanks for the great review. I own a Surface Pro X and I noticed that you mentioned you also own one. Could you help me answer a couple of questions?
1. How is the weight and thickness compared to the SP8? Does it feel significantly heavier and bulkier to the SPX?
2. Other than the 120Hz, is there a big difference in the display of the SP8 vs the SPX (especially with regards to color accuracy)
3. I find that Xbox cloud gaming on the SPX is terrible (lot of lag, lower resolutions). I don't have the same issue when I use it on my iPad Pro connected to the same WiFi network. How is cloud gaming on the SP8?
4. Does the fan turn on most of the times? And is it very loud?

Sorry for all the questions, but after scouring the internet I couldn't find the right platform to find the answers to my questions, hope you could help to answer them ;)

haven't heard this in any review but I bought the surface pro 8 mostly for using onenote and its heating up after one hour writing on it with the pen. Microsoft already switched my device but I have the exact same problem with the new one. and it appears I'm not the only one. there are hundreds of complaints and questions about this problem in the Microsoft community chat.

Microsoft still needs to work on improving the touch tablet experience on Windows 11.

Aren’t there any iPad users in the company? Just for research and comparison purposes?
Also make it more portrait friendly as well.

For as long as 2 in 1 tablet exist, i've always wanted one but after tasting ipad with the keyboard case, I find 2 in 1 tablet isn't for me with the case double as keyboard. I've travelled a lot and type on soft or small spaces and it has been a nightmare with this kind of 2 in 1. That's why I stick with Yoga for 2 in 1

One thing I always wonder is why doesn’t anyone do a surface review with the tablet only. That’s how they ship and how they are used in the NFL, but every time I see someone with a surface they have the type cover. And like at that point why not just get the surface laptop.

I have 2 questions:

1) What is the smoothest way to connect Surface pro 8 to a computer monitor?

2) Is that possible to charge Surface Pro 8 with USB-C port? (I guess it will be much much slower?)

[CareyVandenberg]

As a desktop user who also has a Surface the biggest downside to the Surface and the reason I still have to keep my desktop is that the Surface can only add 2 external monitors. My 7 yr old Dell PC can run 3 very big ones. With the Surface I'd have to use the small Surface monitor as my 3rd monitor which is a significant downgrade to what I've been using for over 10 years.

things that may not matter but does a lot all explained in this video. this vid is a gem.

[rafsanrahi]

Good review, good presentation and well informed...helped me understand the product well to make a decision. Thanks buddy

[amindavoodiyan]

Hello dear, thanks for your useful review 😍 but i have one question could you help me? Thank.

My question is: is surface pro 8 good for rendering in photoshop, after effect and primer, unity and for example maya?

[GabrielBaltat]

The thing with the surface pen, that it is not soft on touch anymore, it is actually very important, atleast for me it is, I had for a long time a Samsung Tab s4, it worked great but the only thing it bothered me was the way it felt when I was writing or drawing something, it felt weird. I tried to do it on a Surface 5 pro and it was a tottaly other feeling, it made me sell my Samsung tablet and buy a Surface :)

[randypulley]

I liked your real world approach. Are you still happy with the 8 gb of RAM? That's what I bought and it feels a lot snappier than I thought it would be. I keep arguing with myself about trading it for 16 gb but really think it may not be necessary. You still happy with the 8 gb? Still using the SP8? Thanks!

[sheilamoore]

Do you recommend I buy protection so they can fix any issues that may come up? tfs

[Pedro-tvmu]

Would you be so kind to comment about the fan noise? Specially when using it for note taking is silent enought to use it in a class without hearing the fan and disturbing others?

[doaflamingo]

the price difference is just not justified. going from i5 to i7 costs $750
