Top-end configurations include a 512GB or 1TB SSD. Our Core i7 review unit has 16GB of RAM and a user-upgradable 256GB solid-state drive for $1,599.99, though it was discounted to $1,299.99 at the time of writing. Either laptop-grade chip pairs with 8GB or 16GB of memory, but you’ll need to step up to the shockingly expensive $2,599.99 Core i7 configuration to get 32GB. Intel-based Surface Pro 9 models come with either the Core i5-1235U or the Core i7-1255U CPU, the latter capable of slightly higher clock speeds and equipped with faster integrated graphics. Neither the Lenovo ThinkPad X12 Detachable nor the Dell Latitude 7320 Detachable has been updated with Intel’s 12th Gen processors, leaving just the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 tablet to fend off Microsoft’s best. Competition, meanwhile, has grown scarce. Microsoft’s Surface Pro has always been one of our favorites, though it has become much more expensive in the last two generations. High-end Windows tablets typically run $750 and up, with the performance and features to double as (or replace) a traditional laptop.
