The company has just said “sometime in 2022” for now.

The Surface Pro 8 that I bought from the USA hasn’t yet launched in India and Microsoft hasn’t indicated when it is coming to the country. This is the device that fans of Microsoft’s Surface line of tablets have been clamouring for many years.įor the most part, the Surface Pro 8 lives up to Microsoft’s claims of it being a tablet that could finally replace the laptop. The Surface Pro 8 comes with a larger 13-inch display, including its 3:2 ratio, Thunderbolt 4 port, Intel Evo’s prowess on the inside, a multi-angle kickstand, and a full-sided Type Cover. So, when its successor, the Surface Pro 8-the first major Surface update/redesign since 2015-was launched in the United States in October, I was excited and immediately swapped my Surface Pro 7+ for the Surface Pro 8. Having purchased the Surface Pro 7+ over the summer (it initially launched in the USA in January 2021), I wasn’t thoroughly happy with many of its features. It was just a slightly faster tablet than the one that came before it. The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is exactly the 2-in-1 laptop that I had been waiting for.
