So you'll have to wait at least seven months to buy one. Not great if you need one now.
Not really, most likely you'll be able to snag one in June. The thing, though, is if the new refresh is Intel Meteor Lake as expected, the reviews on those chips are showing a marked performance improvement over current gen (although not quite sure what the battery life for ultraportables looks like based on early products that have launched to market right now).

I'm personally waiting for the Pro 10 with the new Intel processors to see whether it's delivering the gains that are expected after I returned my SP 9 I bought over the holidays.

FWIW, there's supposed to be a refresh of these with newer chips coming in March (possibly only in the "for business" lines) followed by complete re-designs in June that launch with the new OS, new chips, and new design for the Surface Pro and Laptop.
Exactly - and the good thing is even "consumers" are able to buy the "for business" lines - I got my Surface Pro 7+ from the microsoft store online same way.

LONG term Surface Pro devotee - have had SP 4, 6 and 7+ about 9 years now.

I got the Core i7 SP 9 over black friday. Certified refurb. $940. Seemed like a smash deal. Arrived near brand new - only 2 battery cycles. Mint condition.

And boy was it a massive disappointment. Day to day performance wise it made no significant and notable improvement over my SP7 Core i5. But that battery life, god awful. 5 hours max. Utterly outrageous - my SP7+ lasted 7 hours brand new, and still does 5 hours after overusing it.

This just goes to show how poor Intel have been the last 2-3 generations (or more). I promptly returned the device and am holding out hope the Meteor Lake refresh (likely coming in May) is a change. If not, I'm swearing off win-tel for a while and getting a Macbook Air.

Intel really needs to get its act together!
Fantastic. Thanks. I have a SP 7 (i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) with performance and thermal throttling issues. From everything I read, it seems like upgrading to a SP9 would not make that much of a difference.

There was an article yesterday saying the SP9+ with 14th gen Intel is coming in March 2024, and the SP10 with a complete redesign and a Qualcomm ARM chip is coming in June with the new Windows OS.

Meantime, I'm eyeing the asus Zenbook Duo 2024. that thing is sexy.

Just buy ebay. $650+ for the sp9 open box/new, even cheaper for used or old models. No point spending more than $500 on a Surface because new yearly model releases murder used value with huge depreciation.

My fix is that I run a small desk fan behind them while they are docked. Speeds them up quite a bit.

Sounds like you guys should be using a desktop PC. Unless of course you haul a fan around with you when you travel.

I'd recommend going directly through Best Buy and not Best Buy via eBay, because if you have an issue with the device Best Buy will not replace it. I just received the omen posted last week and it came with a faulty left speaker. I've had a hell of a time trying to get a replacement. I was told to just bring it into the store (from Best Buy via phone) but the rep from store accused me of buying from a fraudulent eBay account because he couldn't find my order. A manager came over and found it. He said he could accept it as a return, but not exchange. I went through Best Buy support via eBay as well, and they said returns only. I called Best Buy again, and they told me I'd have to return and rebuy. The. I escalated and was told I need to go through eBay support to get an exchange, so I reached out last night. I'm waiting for Best Buy's response to eBay. What a s show. If it's not settled by Wednesday, I'm going to the store to return it and never going to Best Buy again. They seem to be going down hill.

My surface pro 6(2017) is still going strong! It's great for digital notating and a tiny windows machine with a bright (for its time) screen. So me.

I have no idea where you get that from. I have a fully updated Windows 11 install, including MS Office Professional Plus 2019, on a Surface Pro with a 256GB SSD.

I checked their review for myself and found they gave it a "Top-Rated Award". That's high praise, they are tough and thorough reviewers.
