Price Drop: Surface Pro X is now$319 off on Amazon

Want to combine the benefits of a laptop with the portability of a tablet? Then why not take advantage of a great deal we found on a Surface Pro 2-in-1 laptop?

For a limited time, Amazon is offering the Microsoft Surface Pro X for $849.99. Normally, this 2-in-1 laptop is $999, so that's a savings of $149 and the lowest price we've seen so far for this base model. It is also $50 less than Best Buy's current price. This is one of the best laptop deals you can get right now.

The Microsoft Surface Pro X is a 2-in-1 tablet/laptop hybrid and an alternative to the Apple iPad Pro.

With a 13" (2880 x 1920) touchscreen, Microsoft SQ1 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB SSD, the Surface Pro X is one of the best tablets on the market today. Notably, it has built-in LTE, which is perfect for network connectivity on the go.

In terms of design, the Surface Pro X is a slimmer version of the Surface Pro 7. It has thinner bezels and rounded corners compared to its successor. It also has its own new stylus, the $139 Slim Pen (sold separately). This revamped pen has two flat surfaces instead of a rounded body and is noticeably thinner than the Surface Pen.

Our sister site LaptopMag's review of the Surface Pro X was favorable for its slim, attractive chassis and bright, vibrant display. While its performance was underwhelming, we found the Surface Pro X to have the best webcam of any laptop or tablet.

The Surface Pro X has a stealthy-looking lightweight anodized aluminum chassis; at 11.3 x 8.2 x 0.3 inches and 1.7 pounds (2.4 pounds with keyboard and stylus), the Surface Pro X is a good match for the Surface Pro 7 (12.5 x 7.9 ×x 0.3 inches, 1.7 pounds), but weighs the same.

In terms of connectivity, the Surface Pro X has two USB-C ports, one more than the iPad Pro. As for battery, the Surface Pro X lasted 9 hours and 45 minutes in LaptopMag's battery test (including continuous web surfing over Wi-Fi at 150 nits), beating the Surface Pro 7 (7 minutes and 30 seconds) and the category average (8 minutes and 16 seconds).

As another option, Amazon sells a 256GB Surface Pro X bundled with a Signature Keyboard and Slim Pen for $1,250 ($320 discount).
