Unlike previous Intel-based devices, Microsoft partnered with Qualcomm to co-create two all-in-one processors dubbed as the SQ1 and SQ2.
WORD X IPAD PRO
Ultimately, the iPad Pro is the better tablet, but the Surface Pro X is the better laptop replacement.
WORD X IPAD FULL VERSION
This keyboard features an Alcantara-covered surface, whereas the standard model does not.Īpple’s iPadOS has evolved to offer a better software solution for multitasking and productivity than it has in the past, but the full version of Windows 10 on the Surface Pro X will be more familiar to most Windows PC owners. Microsoft also sells a “signature” version of the keyboard bundled with the Slim Pen for $270.
However, note the Pro X does not support older Microsoft Type Covers, as the connector is different. In terms of comfort, we found it was essentially the same as what we experienced with the Surface Pro 6, but it now also houses a special spot in the top for the Surface Pen - which we’ll discuss later. The Surface Pro X, meanwhile, supports an optional $140 Type Cover. The cheaper Smart Keyboard Folio doesn’t include a trackpad. There are also now two colors for the Magic Keyboard: white and black. It includes a built-in trackpad, a USB-C port for pass-through charging, and a unique hinge that “floats” the tablet and angles it back for optimal viewing. Apple’s new Magic Keyboard is based on scissor switches and starts at a hefty $299. There’s also no SD card slot, so you must settle on a storage option that fits your needs, although the Surface Pro X does feature swappable SSDs.įinally, both devices sport an option for a keyboard cover. You’ll also find the connector for the keyboard on the long button-free edge. Both devices lack a headphone jack, which means you’ll need to buy a dongle or use a pair of wireless headphones. It features two USB-C ports, a nano-SIM slot, and Microsoft’s proprietary Surface Connect port for charging. The Surface Pro X, meanwhile, doubles that up. There is also a magnetic strip at the top to hold and charge the Apple Pencil, sold separately. On the iPad Pro, there is a single Thunderbolt/USB-4 port, a magnetic smart connector port, and a nano-SIM slot. Next, there’s connectivity, which is also different between the two tablets. Importantly, the Surface Pro X benefits from the built-in kickstand, making the device easier to use on a flat surface (no pun intended). The Surface Pro X is slightly behind the 11-inch iPad Pro with a dimmer 450 nit 60Hz panel, which is common for most Windows devices. The mini-LED display on the 12.9-inch model is even brighter at 1000 nits max brightness. The Pro X also has slightly more pixels per inch than the iPad, but the 11-inch iPad Pro sports a brighter 600 nit 120Hz True Tone display, which we found makes scrolling smoother and more responsive. That makes the Surface Pro X a better option for productivity, while the iPad Pro feels a bit more square, making for a nicer tablet experience. The Surface Pro X also sports a 3:2 aspect ratio, whereas the iPad Pro sits at 4:3.
The Surface Pro X comes with a 2880 x 1920 (267 ppi) resolution while the 12.9-inch iPad Pro has a 2732 x 2048 (264 ppi) resolution. The bezels on the Surface Pro X are similarly narrow on the sides, but the top and bottom borders are thicker.Īs for the display itself, both devices have high-resolution screens.
