It might have taken a while but the Surface Pro 8 is finally available in Singapore. Why Microsoft has taken this long to release products locally will forever remain a mystery, but better late than never right?
The big change is obviously in design, which closely resembles the Surface Pro X. The Surface Pro 8 has a larger display with slimmer bezels on the sides and more rounded edges. Overall, it looks more contemporary and I’m confident most readers will like it.
The screen is a 13-inch PixelSense Flow display (2,880 x 1,920 pixels). Fortunately, the 3:2 aspect ratio remains; something longtime Surface Pro owners love. Refresh rate sees a bump to 120Hz, and there’s an Adaptive Colour feature that automatically adjusts colour profile By all accounts, it’s a nice display, but it’s no OLED.
