Like the Pro 7 and Pro 7 Plus, there's a front-facing IR camera for Windows Hello facial recognition. All three devices do have Wi-Fi 6 for standard internet connectivity.Ĭameras are another area where the Pro 8 has seen some improvements. This is the same as the Pro 7 Plus the standard Pro 7 does not have LTE support at all. This will be alongside the usual eSIM support. If you go in for the Surface Pro 8 LTE model - which apparently isn't going to be available until 2022 - it should come with removable Nano SIM support. The microSD card reader will be missed, but you will be able to connect to the best Thunderbolt 4 docking stations for added connectivity. The Pro 8 has been upgraded to have dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, as well as Surface Connect and 3.5mm audio. The Surface Pro 7 Plus, despite being released earlier this year, had just one USB-C and one USB-A port alongside the Surface Connect, 3.5mm audio jack, and microSD card reader.

Ports have always been a bit of a rough spot for Surface devices. Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central (Image credit: Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central)
