Now is the right time to buy Microsoft's Surface Pro 7 Plus tablet, thanks to a pretty sweet Black Friday deal available at Best Buy. The tablet, with a Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and including a black Type Cover is now available for just $799.99. That's a $230 discount on its original price, which is a significant discount. In fact, it's surprising that it's available at all since the Surface Pro 7+ is usually sold to businesses through specific channels. This is one of the best and easiest ways to buy it if you're interested.
Microsoft Surface Pro 7+
The Surface Pro 7+ is a lightweight tablet with the latest Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM. This model even includes a Type Cover so it's ready to use like a laptop.
If you've heard of the new Surface Pro 8, the Surface Pro 7+ is essentially the same on the inside, particularly in this model. It has the latest 11th-generation Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor with four cores and eight threads, plus Iris Xe graphics. It also has 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD, so you have a solid setup for a great experience overall.
What you don't get with the Surface Pro 7+ is the larger 13-inch display with the 120Hz refresh rate, but this is still a fantastic screen, and it's just as sharp. Plus, there's still a great 5MP webcam that's great for video calls and meetings, and an 8MP camera on the back. This model also doesn't include Thunderbolt 4 support but you get both USB Type-C and Type-A ports out of the box, and you can use the Surface Connect port to connect a dock.
What makes this deal all the sweeter is that it includes the Surface Pro Type Cover, so you can use it as a laptop right out of the box. If you're looking at something like the Surface Pro 8, that starts at $1,099 and you still have to pay almost $200 on top of that for the keyboard. As a side note, this model seems to already have Windows 11 preinstalled, though it's the Home edition. That'll save you the trouble of upgrading it yourself.
All in all, this is a fantastic deal. If you want even more deals aside from the Surface Pro 7 Plus, check out our Black Friday hub with all kinds of deals on mobile tech. And stay tuned for our Black Friday PC deals hub for other great PC deals.
