Quick! I've just found the perfect Surface Pro 8 deal – get $449 off
It's one of the best tablets for creatives.
When we reviewed the Surface Pro 8 last year, we asked ourselves if this was a return to form for Microsoft after a misstep with the 7 – and the answer was a resounding yes! And now, in the last hours of Prime Day, this 41% price drop comes along. Get the Surface Pro 8 down from $1,099.99 to just $650 at Amazon.
This tablet is for digital creatives who don't want low-fat apps. The 8 is a 13-inch tab, so it's ideal for work on the go, but as it runs Windows 11 you can use full-fat software like Photoshop, so it's ideal for digital artists. Personal gripe incoming – it doesn't come with a stylus, so that will have to be bought separately.
The previous lowest price on this model was $699 last Black Friday, so this is a new record low. It's on the 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD model, that runs the i5 Intel core. For more deals on tablets, check out our iPad deals live blog.

Review consensus: We reviewed the Surface Pro 8 after spending some months using it, and it fared well. We loved it's leap ahead from the 7 model, and we still prefer it to the subsequent 9 model.
