See Surface Pro at Microsoft (opens in new tab) I could also add the corny but somewhat accurate 'cool factor' of the Surface Pro. It may have to do with that substantially quicker SSD found in the Pro that shines in the 512GB model.

Performance - Both the Surface Pro and Surface Laptop run Windows 10 with ease, but Surface Pro feels a smidge zippier.

Again, I'd rather have the option than not. It's evident Surface Pro is just a more adaptable PC than Surface Laptop.

Versatility - I don't often switch to tablet mode with the Surface Pro, but again, I like the possibility of having it.

The new Surface Pro and Surface Pen are just too good to resist at times.

Surface Pen - I don't draw a lot, but I still like the option.

I also use the touch screen more because it is physically closer to me. The Surface Pro is more immersive in that regard.

Closeness - I don't usually prefer 12.3-inch displays, but due to the Surface Pro's design, it tends to sit closer to my face than a traditional 13-inch laptop's screen negating the viewing difference.

I can't accuse the Surface Laptop of being heavy, but it is heavier than Surface Pro.

Nimble - At just 2.4 pounds (1.1 kg) the Surface Pro with the keyboard is very light and thin.With more pixels and more pixels-per-inch (due to the smaller screen size) combined with new color profiles (sRGB and enhanced) the Surface Pro's display is just gorgeous.

The colors just pop, and it is noticeably better than Surface Laptop. Display - I can't say enough about how good the new Surface Pro's display is in enhanced mode.There are quite a few standout features that I adore about Surface Pro compared to Surface Laptop, including: Microsoft achieved what it always wanted with the Surface Pro in this fifth generation. In my Surface Pro (2017) review, I noted that the Surface Pro (2017) is close to perfect. While it's not revealed on paper, the Pro's solid-state drive (SSD) for storage has significantly faster read and write times compared to the Surface Laptop. Surface Pro gets the better front-facing camera, and a rear camera, plus it has an option for LTE (coming this fall) and microSD expansion.
