The Surface Pro 7 can be used as a standalone tablet, but paired with the excellent Type Cover from Microsoft, as it is in this deal, it becomes a fantastic 2-in-1 laptop.

In our Surface Pro 7 review, we praised it for its premium design, overall performance and vivid display. One of our complaints was that the keyboard is sold separately, a problem nicely solved by this bundle deal which is also shaving quite a bit off the full retail price. 

At 12.5 x 7.9 x 0.3 inches and 1.7 pounds, the Surface Pro 7 is just a bit larger than the Surface Pro X (11.3 x 8.2 x 0.3 inches), but it offers considerably more utility due to the current limitations of Windows on ARM.

Battery-wise, the fully charged Surface Pro 7 lasted 7 hours and 52 minutes on our Laptop Mag Battery Test, which just misses the category average of 8:14. It's not a great result, but neither is it a deal-breaker. 

Fortunately, it still has that handy magnetic Surface Connect port for charging with magnetic charging all the rage again thanks to Apple's MagSafe charger for the iPhone 12. A USB Type-C port, USB 3.1 Type-A and the headphone/mic jack round out the ports giving you future-proofing and legacy support.

At up to $360 off, depending on your configuration, the Surface Pro 7 is an excellent choice for those that want a do-it-all 2-in-1 laptop that can also easily become a standalone tablet.

Black Friday falls on November 27 and we expect to see tons of deals on the industry's best mobile tech. Be sure to bookmark our Black Friday 2020 deals hub for this year's best Black Friday discounts.
