Microsoft’s Surface Pro 8 has hit its lowest ever price at Best Buy

Monday doesn’t have to be bad, especially when we’ve rounded up some of the best deals on the internet to make your week easier. Take the latest version of Microsoft Surface Pro 8, for example, which you can currently grab a top-of-the-line configuration at Best Buy for $1,299.99 instead of $1,599.99. This powerful tablet is equipped with an 11th generation Intel Core i5 processor, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage which can be supplemented with SD cards if you need a little extra space. The Pro 8’s 13-inch, 120Hz display also offers a 2880 x 1920 resolution but can also be paired with an external monitor, thanks to its pair of Thunderbolt 4 ports. It even has a 3.5mm audio jack if you’re still using headphones that plug into something, but keep in mind that you’ll need to purchase the removable keyboard cover and stylus separately if you want to get the most out of the Windows 11 machine.

Some other notable features include a pair of USB-C ports in addition to a 3.5mm audio jack, as well as a 1080p QLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Read our review.

Only available for its full price of $84.99 on Amazon, the latest iteration of the Echo Show 5 is currently reduced to $44.99 at Best Buy. The ubiquitous 5-inch smart display is hardly a revelation over its previous model, but its list of features still makes it the standard for screen-based smart hubs. The compact touchscreen is small enough to fit on your bedside table and comes with a surprisingly powerful speaker. It’s also capable of streaming video and displaying a variety of customizable updates, including calendar alerts and weather forecasts, and is compatible with Amazon’s full suite of Alex features. And while you can technically use it for video calls thanks to its 2MP camera, the hub’s paltry camera and limited video calling options are definitely shortcomings. Read our review.
