Microsoft’s Surface Pro X is $150 off on Amazon — that’s under $850

TL;DR: The Microsoft Surface Pro X, just released in fall 2019, is on sale for its lowest price ever on Amazon. As of March 5, you can save $150 and get the 128GB model for $849.99 — cheaper than Microsoft’s own sale price.

The tech world is no stranger to upstaging. You know, like when Samsung conveniently announced its first folding phone on the day that Apple announced the iPhone XS. 

But the juicier drama to watch is when a brand upstages itself. Everyone was basking in the expected announcement of the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 at its hardware event in fall 2019, and that’s right when Microsoft dropped the Surface Pro X. 

If anyone has been itching to see if Microsoft’s newest 2-in-1 stands out from the lot of other Microsoft 2-in-1s, you have a chance to save $150 if you buy the 128GB model on Amazon. Not only is $849.99 the lowest it’s been on Amazon ever, but it’s an extra $50 less than the sale price on Microsoft’s website.

Choosing between the Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 7 comes down to one thing: Will you be using it more like an iPad or a laptop? Hands down, the Surface Pro 7’s Intel chip makes it a more viable option for heavy PC users who depend on Windows 10 functionality for work. It’s still Microsoft’s most heavy-duty convertible.

But the Pro X is lighter, has built-in LTE, and a dazzling 13-inch display over the Pro 7’s 12.3-inch display. It just looks newer, and its compatibility with the new Surface Slim Pen is a no-brainer for anyone who appreciates the flat, carpenter pencil style. It’s not included with your purchase, but putting the extra $50 you save on Amazon toward the Slim Pen basically takes 50% off.

Regularly $999 (and on sale for $899 at the Microsoft Store), you can save $150 and get the Microsoft Surface Pro X (128GB) for $849.
