Microsoft Surface Pro 11 - From Zero to Hero 💪🏻 2024

[@justahugenerd1278]

How does the chip compare to a Macbook Pro in terms of capabilities/efficiency? To me it seems more like this would be a MBA/iPad Pro combo competitor but I'm curious if you think it competes with the MBP too Great video btw, and it's always great to see more competition to come out from the Windows side of things!

[@ThisIsE]

That's a great question. I'll let you know more about it as I use it more and really test it out.

[@williamcopeland2617]

If you are concerned about any compatibility, go with the Surface Pro 9. It uses Intel and will literally run every single program that you can think of. For the new Surface Pro 11, you will have to wait a couple months before existing programs are compiled and optimized to run on ARM and some firmware updates to have everything up to par. Remember, at the end of the day if you want to run everything from all games to hardcore work nothing will beat Intel or AMD.

[@JawKnee0530]

I like how your review is more grounded in everyday applications, rather than just analyzing benchmarks and making presumptuous proclamations based off various tables. Most of us care more about how the device performs for each of our own intended uses for it, and you did a great job over-viewing how it can accomplish that on a real-world basis. If it can handle intensive painting apps with only mild heating, I'm sure it can handle by ancient scribbles for a 2-hr chemistry lecture. I'm using a base model surface 7, and simply leaving OneNote open with sheet music displayed is enough to drain the battery by an alarming amount. I by no means (as a struggling student in debt) can afford the new surface, but I would absolutely upgrade to it thanks to the info from your review. Subbed.

[@ThisIsE]

[@davidneale530]

When have they abandoned any earlier attempts at Windows on ARM? The first one, Surface RT continued to get updates for years. The Surface Pro X and similar era devices from other manufacturers all got updated to Windows 11 and will be getting the 24H2 update with the new Prism x86 translator. As an owner of an X Elite laptop, honestly, this time they've cracked it, it's awesome.

[@arondyte318]

@@davidneale530 while it’s indeed true that they did not completely abandon it, it still took them until year 12 to do what their main competitor did in their year 1. I owned the OG Surface RT back in the day and it was super frustrating to see MS drop the ball again and again and again but its great to finally see them break through and I hope they continue to keep the momentum.

[@_Digitalguy]

@@arondyte318 because Apple waited much longer to have competitive chips and could afford moving everything to ARM, as well as dropping 32bits apps, which MS cannot do. Also MS had to rely on external partener, while Apple made their own chips and they are the best at it

I had the Surface Pro 2 and was very impressed with the build quality. The SPs led the market with the kickstand design (including the Combo Touch I use with my iPad Air 5).

[@ChaseT9862]

Yes…finally looks like a good option to replace the iPad Pro M1 + Magic Keyboard + Apple Pencil that I sold months ago that was just so tedious to get anything done on (office/productivity-wise). But now to decide between the OLED version or LCD. Leaning more toward the cheaper LCD with X Plus chip after seeing comparison videos where people are not overwhelmingly preferring the OLED? Added to that is that the X Plus chip isn’t noticeably slower than the X Elite (from what people and benchmarks are saying). And that will also save me hundreds that I can put into keyboard and pen. Which btw, agree on the somewhat cheaper feel of the Surface pen compared to Apple Pencil…but the Surface pen is just so much easier to use. Never liked the tapping to switch tools on Apple Pencil and never seemed to work as it should, but pressing a physical button or flipping around to erase just works.

[@Poli-IX]

The rule of thumb is: "If you are not able to do almost all of your work using the touch screen, then the iPad is NOT for you."

My previous Surface 9 was LCD and it was still a very impressive device when it comes to the picture quality. I’m still trying to get my hands on the Flex keyboard which honestly shouldn’t be so expensive

Retro game emulators work well on Windows 11 arm. There are several emulators that have Windows arm64 binaries such as, Dolphin - GC / Wii, Duckstation - PS1, athersx2 - PS2, PPSSPP - psp and Dosbox-X. Emulators such as ScummVM, RMG - N64 and mGBA also run well via x86 / 64 emulation. I run these of a Windows Dev Kit 2023 with SQ3 / Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 which has around 50% of the performance of a Snapdragon X Elite processor.

Good to know! Thank you!

[@RemofRenaissance]

Enjoyable as always. Thank you. I picked up the base model with the X Plus and very happy (like you I had the pro 9 before) and I also have left the charger in the box topping up the battery passively through monitors / docks. Reusing an old surface pro keyboard also saved money 👍🏾

How's the performance on the Plus?

[@RemofRenaissance]

@@ThisIsE it’s really good (performance - thank you). Whilst I’m sure my workload is not as demanding as yours - it chews up through my hundreds of thousands of data rows in excel like a champ and handles all my data software well (Power BI). That’s pretty much the limit of my powers. But it does it faster than what I’ve used before and battery is great. I have seen some computers still slowdown over near million row spreadsheets / it can happen 😄. No regrets at all. Will upgrade the hard drive myself.

[@rramnel]

Thanks for this video, exactly what I was looking for as I am torn between buying an iPad Pro M4 or the Surface Pro 11. I read on some Reddit forums and reviews that the OLED display on the Surface Pro 11 has some fringing/raster effect where the text doesn't look sharp especially on white backgrounds. Did you see such an effect on your Surface Pro 11? And how would you rate the colour accuracy on the Surface Pro 11 compared to the iPad Pro M4? And one last question on top 😀 Does the Surface Pro 11 have a 10-bit display panel?

[@Poli-IX]

Looks like a GPU problem. Hopefully it can be solved with a driver update.

[@Kinetic79]

The text is very clear to me, but the white and light grey backgrounds at higher brightness levels definitely look dithered. Rather than a GPU issue, I understand this as the screen door effect from the pen/touch sensors being somewhat visible. It isn’t in a square pattern, however. But it’s very noticeable if reading black text on a light background in a brighter environment. The oled screen is otherwise great for media consumption. I couldn’t notice this on the iPad oled screen.

[@rramnel]

@@Kinetic79 Thanks a lot for this. I know that this colour fringing/rastering effect will definitely bother me. And thanks for also sharing that the iPad Pro OLED screen doesn't have that issue. Appreciate it.

[@ChaseT9862]

@@rramnel I feel like your use case is more important to consider than screen quality…but then again, if the Surface Pro or iPad is a secondary device to a proper PC or Mac then maybe it doesn’t matter as much. If you are a content creator or some other artfully inclined person, maybe iPad makes sense. But if you need to be able to easily manage files (drag and drop between apps and windows) and other office type tasks, the Surface, I think, is the better choice. I had both a Surface Pro X and an iPad Pro M1 and sold them both - neither were the experience I was looking for. But now that these new Snapdragon chips have arrived, I’ll be buying a Surface Pro again and skipping iPad until iPad OS improves immensely.

[@ThisIsE]

I see the dithering effect from time to time, but if it wasn't for all the online drama, I wouldn't think twice about it. (personal take of course)

Thanks Prof. Xavier.

[@NeKa..]

I love mine because it goldilocks... If i need/want to draw I can... If I want to use touch to browse around or navigate a program, I can... So while not everything is touch optimised, I don't mind because I do like using it with keyboard...and Microsoft typecover are my favourite for most satisfying key travel and typing experience...however, Microsoft is still Microsoft and very bifurcated in their finery. The 'new outlook' has no touch swipe like the Mail which in my opinion is more cleaner and perfect UI yet being replaced this year. Next the new keyboard flex battery and charge has major issues. I was going to sell of my previous typecover for Surface pro 9, but I had to snap it on for use because flex just dropped charge even while connected the whole time. It seems like firmware issue than hardware one and perhaps some firmware update might fix it. But who knows when (or if) that happens despite the eye-watering price that these companies (both apple and Microsoft) charge for keyboards. Ipad pro definitely does better at whatever it does... but it does so little (mostly media consumption, some browsing, emailing and drawing or editing) that surface pro 11 is sensible and useful choice anytime any day. It's like comparing apples and oranges.

I am looking to buy a surface pro, and I’m just wondering if the keyboard and mouse that I already have will connect to it when I am at home (I do also have a monitor to connect too, which may be an issue due to the amount of ports). My plan is to use the Xbox Series S that I have for any gaming that I would like to do, and the surface pro for college work at home, both being hooked up to my monitor and using the same keyboard and mouse, if possible.

No native support yet. Not sure if emulation works.

[@katygullett]

I keep seeing that windows pro 11 cannot have google drive on it... is there a work around. I need a new surface pro for nursing school but all my documents are through google drive.

[@Joxus]

Why not use it through google chrome?

[@dirtlongfela8453]

What does the Surface Pro 11 have? Touch screen, pen, it's a laptop and table at the same time, it has Windows 11, it has Copilot. What does the Macbook have? Just a drawn apple. lol Surface is the future!!!

[@waqarhaider2226]

Please compare it to the iPad!

[@ThisIsE]

I will 👍

[@Verschiedenes]

Actually the pro 9 was the best of them until now. Because it has full-fledged windows while windows on arm is just a bad joke. It can‘t even run acrobat reader for god‘s sake.

[@nasergh9354]

Hi. Is it worth buying pro 9 still ? Or elite is better? And 16 or 32 gb ram? Is it enough 16 and have no lags on chrome and powerpoint or 32 will be needed?

[@ThisIsE]

I wouldn’t buy the 9

[@Punkyskulls]

does anybody know if i can play games only using the screen?

[@Pt08020]

awesome concept but still too expensive….

[@cailloujapan1213]

You didn't mention the battery life at all...

[@ThisIsE]

I am yet to report on that in the long term. First impressions - superb 👌🏻 Easily an all-day device if used for casual tasks.

I don"t like the Ps can not create video timeline now and no Lr Classic. It's too early that this ecosystem better than M Apple series

[@charmyourvirtualneighbor]
