Cyber Monday tablet deal: Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is $600 off after Black Friday 2022

Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are continuing to appear on major US retailer websites, and now, Microsoft has joined the fray.

The Microsoft Surface Pro 8, a sleek and capable tablet-laptop hybrid device, is currently on sale. If you visit the Redmond giant’s online store, you can grab a Surface Pro 8 with a price of $999, saving at least $600 on its typical starting retail price of $1,599.

But Microsoft has several models of this 2-in-1 on sale, including a $799 version that is $400 for Black Friday 2022.

The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is a thin, lightweight hybrid device suitable for work and study. Available in a variety of different finishes and specifications, the 13″ touchscreen tablet is designed for productivity — although you may have to invest in additional accessories such as a keyboard and stylus, depending on how you want to utilize the hybrid machine.  

The lowest price point available is $799 for a platinum model with an Intel Evo Core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, and 128GB SSD storage. However, if you want more power in your device, you can still save on a Surface Pro 8 equipped with an Intel Evo Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 1TB SSD storage — normally priced at $2,199, but now available for $1,899.
