I personally will be going for the SQ1 8GB/128GB. It will also get the 64bit emulation support. the same benefits in battery time as the SQ2. Also, the SQ1 will receive a firmware update getting approx. Relatively few side by side reviews but the one below is quite good. Ever since Microsoft got their new Edge Chromium, I am only using that browser.įrom a lifecycle management perspective, my impression is that the SQ1 will be supported equally in the same way as SQ2 over time. Bear in mind that the SQ1 variant is still in play and not retired, think of it as as getting a regular Pro with an i5 or an i7 Intel processor EXCEPT, the difference between the two is far smaller. I am not doing any heavy usage on the device and I only tend to have some programs open at the same time. I use home storage and cloud storage for archiving/offloading.

I as an example have never ever filled a laptop with 128GB storage. Its quite tempting to look at hardware specs all the time, but you need to put it in comparison to the cost and your usage. I think it all boils down to what you are going to use it for. SQ1 & SQ2, the way Microsoft tends to sell it is in the same way as they have i5 & i7. I am also in the Surface Pro X purchase mode and have done a lot of investigation.
