At this time, Surface Pro 9 (SQ3/5G) with Windows 11 Home on ARM will not install some games and CAD software, and some third-party drivers or anti-virus software.

That said, the Surface Pro 9 is certainly the best the Surface has ever been, especially if you need a tablet that can replace a laptop without a hiccup. The Intel Pro’s camera is still perfectly fine, delivering an accurate and detailed picture, but it doesn’t have quite the same video conferencing experience.

You can use it to play games on Xbox One and Xbox Series Consoles, and stream select games where available to Surface Pro 9 through Xbox.

The integrated Kickstand lets you set up wherever's most comfortable, with two 1080p cameras making video conferencing a cinch.
