You can pair any of those with the excellent Slim Pen 2, the official Surface stylus, for $279. The standard type cover, using Microsoft's favorite surface material, soft-but-rugged Alcantara, is $179 in black, platinum, sapphire, forest or red. The least-expensive of those is a $139 version that's left over from the Surface Pro X.

Every time I say the same thing: The keyboard cover is a vital part of this device's efficacy, but it's always been sold separately. I've reviewed nearly every Surface system since the line debuted 10 years ago. Here's where it starts to get even more tricky. I'm testing one of the middle options, with 16GB of RAM and a 32GB SSD, for $1,599. On the 5G side, you're again restricted to one color, the platinum, but there are four configuration options, starting with 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD for $1,299 to 16GB of RAM with a 512GB SSD for $1,899.
