![]() ![]() Microsoft Surface Pro 7 review: Keyboard and trackpadĪgain, there's very little to say here that we haven't said about the Surface Pro 6's TypeCover and Surface Pen accessories, as they haven't changed particularly. Otherwise, it's every bit as polished as we've come to expect from the Surface line. By and large, it's a great machine for media editing - although we did notice some intermittent issues where the contrast would suddenly drop. While a 92% coverage of the sRGB colour gamut doesn't quite match the lofty heights of the 2017 Surface Pro (opens in new tab), it's an improvement over the 88% achieved by the Surface Pro 6.īy default, the display is set to an 'enhanced mode' which attempts to mimic the DCI-P3 colour gamut, but we swiftly switch this off as it didn't really have much impact. However, the same was true of the Surface Pro 6, and that display still managed to score slightly worse than its predecessor for visual quality.

It's 8.3mm thick with a weight of 775g (or 790g for the Core i7 version), which sounds nice and lightweight, but bear in mind that this doesn't take the TypeCover into account. It's practically identical in terms of size and weight, too. ![]() There's one key difference in terms of the available ports - which we'll talk more about later - but beyond that, it sports the same smooth planes and sharp angles that have defined the Surface Pro for years. The Surface Pro 7 does not break with this tradition, and you may struggle to tell this device apart from its predecessor by looks alone.
