Microsoft Surface Tablets

Detachable Productivity with Surface Pen, Kickstand, and Full Windows 11

Microsoft Surface tablets shift from standalone tablet to full laptop with the snap of a Type Cover, giving field workers, presenters, and classroom instructors one device that handles both modes without compromise. The lineup spans the Surface Pro series with Intel Core and Qualcomm processors and the Surface Go line for budget-friendly deployments, all running full Windows 11 with enterprise management through Intune and Autopilot. Every model is part of the broader Microsoft product catalog, and the full tablets category covers options from every major manufacturer.

Microsoft Surface Tablets for Every Workflow

• Field service and inspections — technicians and auditors use Surface tablets with the kickstand and Surface Pen to capture notes, annotate photos, and complete digital forms on-site
• Point of sale and customer-facing — retail and hospitality environments deploy Surface Pro tablets as registers, menu boards, or customer check-in stations using the built-in kickstand and touch display
• Healthcare and rounding — Surface Go and Surface Pro tablets integrate with electronic health record systems for bedside charting, patient intake, and medication verification
• Classroom and student use — Surface Go tablets are lightweight and affordable for 1:1 student programs, while teachers use Surface Pro models for lesson delivery, grading, and digital whiteboarding
• Presentations and demos — high-resolution PixelSense displays, pen input, and instant-on capability make Surface tablets effective tools for sales demos, client walkthroughs, and live sketching

Choosing the Right Microsoft Surface Tablet

The Surface Pro and Surface Go serve different segments of the tablet market. Surface Pro models deliver workstation-class performance with Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, 16 GB or 32 GB of RAM, and optional Qualcomm ARM processors for exceptional battery life and always-on LTE connectivity. Surface Go models prioritize portability and affordability with 10.5" displays and Intel processors suited for web applications, Microsoft 365, and video conferencing.

Pen and Touch Input

Every Surface Pro supports the Surface Pen with 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity and tilt detection, turning the tablet into a capable digital notebook for architects, designers, and medical professionals. The pen attaches magnetically to the side of the device for storage and charging on compatible models. Surface Go also supports pen input for note-taking and markup, though its smaller display is better suited to annotation than detailed illustration work.

Kickstand and Type Cover Options

The integrated multi-position kickstand adjusts from upright to nearly flat Studio Mode, supporting laptop use, drawing, and hands-free viewing without a separate case or stand. Type Cover keyboards attach magnetically and add a backlit keyboard with trackpad, converting the tablet into a laptop in under a second. Multiple Type Cover options are available including standard fabric, Alcantara, and models with built-in slim pen storage.
