Microsoft Surface Pro 11 is stylish, efficient and expensive

Microsoft’s Surface Pro 11 remains a one-one-one-late laptop, even after 12 years of starting. Almost almost everything you want from a device in the country, thanks to the new powerful and efficient Snapdragon X Elite processor. I wish I had this instead of Surface Pro 5 in college for blogs and noting notes. This is Microsoft Surface Pro I have loved for years.

However, Microsoft’s price and positioning as a 2-in-1 while treating the keyboard as an optional accessory remain as confusing as never before. I replaced my MacBook Air to travel and work with Surface Pro 11 as my primary machine for a month, and here are three things you need to know about Microsoft’s new 2-in-1 device.

1. I love the new OLED screen and online camera

One of the major updates for Microsoft Surface Pro 11 is the new OLED screen in the most expensive models. IPS LCD in low-level variants is still one of the best LCDs you can get, but OLED brings deeper blacks and better contrast for fun.

The 13 -inch Surface Pro 11 screen contains a dynamic rate of 120Hz dynamic refresh and brings P3 calibration through the profile of vibrant colors. It is a well -calibrated screen with effective HDR in the Dolby Vision -based content. She recorded 495 nits the peak of splendor in my test, and from my experience, I have had no problems with readability when working from a cafe or cooperation space.

In particular, my initial revision unit had screen ignition problems, and Microsoft replaced it with a new car, which I used extensively for four weeks. I am happy to report that I have not faced any ignition issues in the past month.

From watching movies to work on productivity applications, browsing and participating in video calls, she has given impressive performance. I have consumed content on this screen in cabins, airports, flights and at home watching movies – and pop colors to provide a nice experience.

While I don’t talk much about online cameras on laptops (because most of the time, it’s the same underestimating experience), Surface Pro 11 contains one of the best front cameras on a laptop. You will notice the high level quality thanks to the updated 1440p Quad HD resolution on full HD cameras on other laptops.

Microsoft also uses improvements in it called Windows Studio effects to improve your video call experience. I have found some of these features more useful than I expected. For example, the automatic framing feature keeps the camera focused on your face even when you are moving, and the eye contact keeps your eyes on the camera. The latter may sound cute, but it looks surprisingly natural.

2. The efficiency of Snapdragon x Elite is all I ever wanted

The most important update for me in Surface Pro 11 new is the life of his battery. I switched to MacBook Air of the M series by Surface Pro 5, and was a player of the game. For the longest time, I didn’t need to load my laptop every day. While Surface Pro 11 is not on the same level as the MacBook Air, it is a significant improvement in the efficiency of intel -in -energy cars.

I used Microsoft Surface Pro 11 in the recommended settings for everyday use, which includes many internet use. My daily work includes writing on Google Docs, maintaining at least a dozen chrome tabs open at all times, using Lightroom Web for Editing Photo, and running Slack and Asana in the background. Took me during the day quiet for each fee.

To get “can I play in it?” Out -of -way questions – Surface Pro 11 is not made for games, and Adreno GPU’s common memory is not ideal for playing AAA games. This is a productivity machine through and through, and excels in what it does. I was also able to run Photoshop and Premiere Pro for easy edits without being disturbed by any fans’ noise (she has a fan).

My review unit goes to the Snapdragon X Elite platform, paired with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB storage, but you can also get it with the X Plus processor and other storage configurations.

While my workflow was not interrupted, if you rely on a specific independent software, I suggest checking if the company supports the ARM laptop before placed on this device. It should be good for those who rely on online applications and light productivity software.

3. Shiny, light and removable

Microsoft Surface Pro remains the only 2-in-1 productivity device with a strong stroke and a detachable keyboard. At 9.3 mm (0.37 inches) thick and 895 g (1.97 lbs) without keyboard, is thin and light. With the keyboard also attached, it is comfortable to hold and hold around. The hinge is strong and stays intact at whatever the angle you set – even when it is not completely pushed to 165 degrees and you are writing them.

If you are coming from a traditional laptop, it will take some time to get used to where you can support kickstand (solid surfaces) and where it is not possible (soft surfaces like your stomach when you lie down or lap).

Microsoft Surface Pro has a new Flex keyboard that comes with an integrated place for exquisite pen (2nd generation). However, it costs an additional $ 450 with an alcantara finish, and the flexible keyboard without the ending of Alcantara is available for INR 37,990 in India.

If you can spend the price, it is a stronger keyboard that has improved in every aspect. I liked to print it, and unlike other slim and light laptops, Trackpad does not record accidental entry from the bottom. It is calm and responsible, unless the keyboard is sitting at work for a while – then it does not respond to touch the first test.

The Flex keypad can also be disconnected and stayed wireless to Surface Pro 11 above Bluetooth. Next to an improvement on ancestors.

Microsoft Surface Pro 11: Price and positioning

Microsoft Surface Pro 11 is excellent but expensive, with confusing positioning. I have kept this opinion for years-if it has been marketed as a 2-in-1 device, it should include a keyboard in the box; Otherwise, it’s just a tablet. And Windows is not a touch-oriented operating system best-functioning with a keyboard and trackPad. The “optional” keyboard is not optional, and you will have to spend at least $ 180 more than the declared Surface Pro 11 price to get it in true 2-in-1 functionality.

With a starting price of $ 1000, you get a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus processor, 16 GB of RAM and 256 GB storage with an LCD screen. You will need to discard $ 180 more on the keyboard case and $ 130 more for exquisite surface pen (which is really optional). My review unit costs $ 1,500 / INR 1,61,990 without keyboard and thin pen. Add the new Flex keyboard (thin pen included), and you are watching $ 450 / INR 37,990 more at the top of the retail price of Surface Pro 11.

There is no Snapdragon X variant from now.

To whom is Microsoft Surface Pro 11 for?

Surface Pro 11 is for those who want the most mobile productivity laptop without compromising on screen and performance. Fortress for business professionals who are always on the go and (if you have) students. As a college student in 2019, I liked to have Surface Pro 5 for taking notes and blogs-but I received it for a join the keyboard at the time.

Surface Pro 11 contains a powerful and efficient processor that has resolved my past issues and performance issues. If you decide on the OLED variant, you get a fantastic screen, long battery life and one of the best cameras on a laptop.
