The Intel models are also available on Lazada, and Shopee.Consumer laptop makers worldwide concur that the notebooks we will use in future will run on ARM chips-chips that use the same system architecture as the chips on our phones. Given the weaker performance, and possible software incompatibilities, you have to seriously value 5G connectivity, and battery stamina to pick the SQ3 version over the Intel one. The Intel models, though, start from S$1,588 for a Core i5 version (Wi-Fi only, of course). There's currently only has one configuration (S$2,088, 8GB RAM with 128GB SSD) for the Surface Pro 9 with 5G on the Microsoft Store. I didn't have an Intel Surface Pro 9 to compare, but based on Microsoft's estimates, the 5G version has about 18% longer battery life. It lasted around 15 mins shy of 15 hours. The other advantage that the SQ3-powered Surface Pro may have over the Intel variant is power consumption. I didn't test this feature, but 5G is probably the key selling point for would-be buyers. And of course, the Surface Pro 9 with 5G has a nano-SIM slot for cellular connectivity. But instead of two Thunderbolt 4 ports, the ones on the SQ3-powered Surface Pro 9 support USB-C 3.2. The must-have Surface Pro Signature Keyboard accessory (S$288, sold separately) has a charging slot for the Slim Pen 2 (S$208, sold separately). This webcam is pretty good, and makes me look good, too. Windows Hello facial recognition is available via the 1080p webcam.
You'll get the same crisp touchscreen (with up to 120Hz refresh rate), and integrated kickstand. The new version is a pinch lighter, though it's still almost 900g. Credit: Vincent Chang/Can Buy or NotĪs for the design and hardware, the Surface Pro 9 is almost identical to last year's Surface Pro 8.
However, the built-in media player did freeze on one occasion during my week-long test. They aren't blazing fast, but neither did they feel slower than usual. The Microsoft Edge browser, and Netflix app worked well, too. But I managed to run Civilization VI, and Gris without any issues or lag on the Surface Pro 9. Now you're probably not buying a Surface Pro tablet for gaming. That means you're losing a significant chunk of performance with the SQ3-powered Surface Pro 9 compared to the Intel version. In comparison, Cinebench estimates that a mobile Intel processor from last year, such as the Core i7-1165G7 would score 3,769. For a rough gauge on where this Surface Pro 9 stands, it scored 3,022 (multicore) in the Cinebench R23 rendering test. Our usual PCMark 10 benchmark isn't compatible either.
