Verdict

The Microsoft Surface Pro 7 Plus (i7, 32GB, 1TB) is a high-performance 2-in-1 tablet powered by an 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1165G7 quad-core processor and Intel Iris Xe graphics. It features a 12.3-inch PixelSense touchscreen with a 2736 x 1824 resolution, a versatile built-in kickstand, and a removable 1TB SSD for improved data security and storage longevity. Main pros include its rare 32GB RAM configuration for heavy multitasking, ultra-light magnesium alloy build weighing approximately 784g, and the inclusion of both USB-C and USB-A ports. However, some cons include a dated design with thick screen bezels, the fact that the Type Cover and Surface Pen are sold separately, and thermal throttling under sustained heavy workloads.
