Long story short: Said it's up to you. I would say they're extremely similar. So save your $$ and get the SP8.
Yeah I mean unless someone is really married to the idea of an arm chip. Also losing the headphone jack is a big bummer in my opinion I was still upset about losing SD card support in the 8th gen
The Surface Pro 8 also has an audio jack which the 9 removed. I'm waiting for Microsoft to realize it was a bad idea for the next iteration or at least give us another thunderbolt 4 port as consolation.
Practical Perspective. I'll give you that..
@@michaelcorcoran8768 They really need to just get rid of that charging connector thing they have and replace that with an sd card slot.
Not giving a recommendation is a total cop out. People are literally watching this for a professional opinion not a coin flip.
Hahaha! Yeah I'm surprised and also annoyed when I'm looking for a professional opinion and at the end they essentially say, "It's up to you" ;'DD
Only psychologists should do that ;'DD
And doctors maybe, for fear of being sued.
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME with this video. they don't say anything the front cover of the box would show (everything we already knew from specs). VIDEO DOESN'T EVEN GIVE YOU A RECOMMENDATION 😒 . if you want to save $ sp8 it is.
Thanks for your feedback.
I got the surface pro 8 over the 9 because it was $400 cheaper for the i7 model. Plus, the 8 keeps the headphone jack.
Smart move!
Hey, same to me. I also got the SP8 i7 16g 256g. yes, it saved $ and I can buy an SSD to replace it. maybe 1,2TB.
It's 2024 now, and I'm wondering if the Surface 8 Pro is still selling today, because I feel like it was the best option for me to own one and to work with on a Windows tablet.
yup thats what i love every time a new version gets released i get to enjoy the perks of the previous gen i have a pro 8 and my gosh i love i will be keeping this one for a long long time.
Nice!
It’s basically the same as the SP8, best to get the 8 at a better price or wait to see what next year offers
Exactly. We need more of these comments, and less of these vids that literally don't say anything on which is the one to get.
Surface pro 8 is already >$200 off already. I don't see it going down any cheaper but I think that will be the one to get since I hate they removed the headphone jack too.
@@pieceofshitzu2 It will get even cheaper when the Surface Pro 9 actually comes out.
The lack of a 3.5mm jack is unforgivable for a working machine. Even so, the Surface Pro 9 is a better option due to a less hungry CPU, DDR5 memory, a longer battery life (even with a smaller battery), and repairability. Given the fact that Raptor Lake CPU (13the gen) has only little advantage over 12th gen Alder Lake, it's the right time to upgrade my old Surface Pro 6.
Repairability meaning what? I still have my Surface from 2018. So far so good. Just did a Fresh Reinstall for Windows 10 PRO. Not bad ..but it is tempting to Upgrade to an 8 Pro or 9 Pro.
Got a 6 as well. Its showing its age with only 8gb
I bought the surface pro 8, even though I said surface pro 9 is better option. I got a very tempting deal for 32gb version I couldn't resist.
Surface Pro 9: no 3.5mm, less battery life, more money, no thanks.
"More Colors"
@@Techfluencer Jews
Conclusion: Depends. I just saved you 3 minutes.
Got mine Pro 8 for $849+196 for keyboard and pen. I say save the money.
Good decision.
you are the first person ive seen bring up the pro 9 has no headphone jack.
YEP imma just stick to getting a pro 8 because I doubt the little processor improvement will make a difference for an average user
It has the thunderbolt ports just use headphones with the thunderbolt jack
The 9 does not have a 3.5mm jack so I needed an adapter and I wouild be "loosing" one usbc-port for my headset. Hard to understand that choice MS mad - so to me it´s clearely the pro 8 simply due to the 3.5mm jack.
I really don´t like that they removed the audio input. To me who use music creation apps it´s worthless to use.
Color options don't mean anything to me, because I always assume it's going to scratched to h*ll over time anyway so I put a skin on it.
Smart!
I'm guessing everyone bought the sp8 since blackfriday had good deals in Australia
Likely so.
Kinda worthless comparison when you don’t bother with the most important components. At least throw in some speed tests FFS.
Thank you for your feedback.
How the price?
What kind of rich people can upgrade on laptop like this every single year? I do love the green aesthetic though. I still kind of regret getting a boring aesthetic with my surface pro device from a few years ago.
Guys who has the ability to bend more? for writing.
They are basically tabs with folio.
So you are less likely to face any issues while writing.
I absolutely love my SP8... I don't see the point in upgrading
Good decision.
No evolution. I stay with SP8.
How long does yours last?
Same just not worth the upgrade
Does the surface pro 9 have Face ID?
Yes, it does.
In 1.6 years I’ll get a SP9
Nice!
The REAL upgrade is for the Arm version of the Surface Pro.
I’m interested to see the performance reviews of SQ3 Surface Pro 9
Agreed!
The Arm version does make a difference.
Why the US Companies Should be replaced with foreign companies? Guess Who is Replacing…
SQ3 is the worst. So many applications do not want to adapt to SQ3, hence Microsoft Surface X is so cheap.
Waste of time!
I bought the 8 a week ago, intending to return it for the 9 when it came out hoping for some improvements in battery life at the very least. Turns out it's likely gonna be WORSE in the intel versions and aside from that its basically identical outside of my 8 still having a headphone jack. Kind of a huge letdown.
I have a pro 7 and was thinking of upgrading to a new one.
I am in the same boat and would rather get the 8 since they actually removed features :/
how long does the SP8 Battery life usually lasts for you?
@@Dee-- It drops from 100% to 10% in 4 to 6 hours depends on your tasks. Please don't trust these reviewers, they are just reading out the specs provided by the company. There is no way it can last 15-19 hours. The battery life provided by MS is a joke because it includes when the device is in standby mode. WTH??
@@AhPan thank you for the response appreciate it! do you think the sp9’s battery life is better?
@@Dee-- I can’t tell you if it will be better than Pro 8, but I am 100% sure it won’t last as long as what MS claims 15-19 hrs. I would guess it would be about the same as pro 8’s 4-6 hrs. Some people claim it lasts about 7-8 hrs, and that’s when they use power saving mode and have screen brightness turned way down, 120hz off…etc, then what’s the point of having nice hardwares?
