![]() However, if you go to the higher spec'd version of the Pixelbook Go, things start to skyrocket. It lacks face recognition, LTE, upgradable storage, has only a full HD display, and doesn't support inking. Take, for instance, the latest Google Pixelbook Go, which starts at just $649. In general, Chromebooks are much cheaper. Things get more complicated if you compare the similarly-configured Surface Pro X to the entire Chromebook category. ![]() Source: Android CentralThe Google Pixelbook is still on sale in 2020 for $1,200. My only point is to illustrate the cost comparison between two similarly configured devices. I won't debate which tablet is better, because that's up to you. In a best case scenario, it's $100 cheaper than Apple's tablet. Even here, the Pro X gets you "free" LTE over the iPad Pro with double the storage. Going the other direction the Surface Pro X base mode (8GB, 128GB) starts at $999 (on sale for $899 right now) while the iPad Pro 12.9 (64GB) and without LTE also starts at $999. The Apple iPad Pro 12.9 with LTE (1TB) is $2,028 with a keyboard and Pencil. If you want to go nuts and max out both devices, Surface Pro X (16GB, 512GB) with pen and keyboard is $2,069 ($1,869 on sale). And current-gen iPads rarely, if ever, go on sale. That's $259 cheaper than a similarly configured iPad Pro 12.9. When Surface Pro X is on sale (like it is now), it's $1,369 with the pen and keyboard. But the more significant point is, if anything, the Surface Pro X is slightly cheaper – when all else is equal – than a similarly configured iPad Pro 12.9. The Surface Pro X is slightly cheaper than a similarly configured iPad Pro 12.9 with LTE.Īre one or even both overpriced? Maybe. That's not a lot, but you could put that towards an Arc mouse (opens in new tab) or maybe a dinner out. By comparison, the iPad Pro 12.9 with 256GB of storage, LTE, Apple Pencil, and Smart Keyboard Folio comes to $1,628. ![]() The Surface Pro X with 256GB of storage, 8GB of RAM, with Surface Slim Pen and keyboard comes to $1,569 (though you can also find it on sale right now) (opens in new tab). ![]()
